Famous Chil Princesses is a story about four sisters, Deok-chil, Seol-chil, Mi-chil and Jong-chil, whose father is a retired military man. This humorous drama depicts the real-life stories of today's families, eliciting both laughter and tears from its viewers. The life of the oldest sister, Deok-chil, whose unloving husband divorces her, shows problems facing remarried couples. The upbeat and confident second sister, Seol-chil, plays the role of a son to her parents and ends up fighting for love against her younger sister, the pretty but selfish Mi-chil, who is the family's troublemaker. Finally, the youngest of the sisters, Jong-chil, becomes pregnant and marries her boyfriend at a tender age, facing numerous conflicts with her in-laws.

Park Min Oct 19 2022 10:25 am It turned out to be better than I initially thought of it after watching a handful of episodes. It may have the look and feel of 1996 although it's from 2006 but I guess that's just the limitation of production, still pretty decent, I will talk more about RAW files at the end. While watching the first half, you would think that Mi Chil is the ultimate representation of a toxic guilt-tripping-filled relationship and that Il Han deserve all the agony and pain but the drama managed to pick itself up afterwards. The drama does the "high" moments really well while the "low" moments are really low and awful but it overcompensates that with the campiness feel especially once the twins made up (around eps50).
All the stories were good and enjoyable to watch except Deok Chil's story line which always felt dull and lack any proper characterization. One thing extra I wanted from the ending is for "Mi Chil" to have a slightly better ending to give her the chance to speak out. The time-skip ending had an insane amount of baby making, it's a strong contender for the highest time-skip baby making drama.
If you were to watch it then go to AvistaZ and choose the release from Taengoo, it's pulled directly from KBS vods and even looks much better than the DVD version although it got a slight interlaced effect for the first 30 episodes.
kdramafan Aug 12 2021 6:22 pm hello i have the korean version but dont understand anything can anybody tell me where can i find the english version thanks very much in advance
Angel ni PHJ May 08 2021 5:13 am Came here for PHJ. He was so cute and adorable. And as usual, he pulled the roles superbly. I had been into kdrama only recently and came across PHJ and since then I am unable to free myself from this addiction. Everything he does so touches my heart! Didnt realize I could endure 80 episodes just to see him! Am so wanting more of him now!
Rose Feb 28 2021 11:32 am I watched this because of Lee Seung Gi. He was still very young then but he already shown his great acting. Proud of what he has become now.
haejinfever Oct 08 2017 10:07 pm am late watching this simply bc i just learned about Park hae jin after watching Snow is on the Ocean then the rest is history, am still doing all of his projects & albeit there's no Eng subs watching this drama, i didn't even care only bec of Park hae jin! he's so special, i admired a lot of K actors before but i never felt so interested and hooked/addicted i must say to him! He's a great person inside/out and not only bec he's handsome but it just happens to be in a package all together! Love him and he's my current inspiration! :) My day won't be complete w/o searching for him online :) He's so good in this drama considering it's his debut! Such gifted and talented and wish him all the best in his career! fighting! i still hv to watch EOE altho when it aired i watched a few epis but little did i know he was one of the casts and now i will hv to go back & continue where i left off because of Park hae jin ssi! :)
Monino Jun 24 2017 2:42 am I watched this drama after East of Eden coz of Park Hae Jin and couldn't believe that the cute lovely awkward Yun Ha Nam was the same melancholic double-sided Shin Myung Hoon! He was juts a newbie in this drama and he himself criticizes his acting but his acting and Ha Nam's character match so well! And Lee tae ran has also done a great job! Their couple looks wonderful! A serious military woman and an artistic lover boy! Very fun to watch!
Dina Feb 07 2017 9:12 pm I loved this one. Lee Tae Ran was cool, it was so fun and there was even a little self parody at the end. It was really hard to catch all of the episodes back when this was on broadcast TV -- would LOVE for an online service to run it so I can watch the whole series.
MS. CHESSY Dec 12 2016 9:42 pm Park Hae Jin ssi you are so the best in every role. You deserves to be a great actor!
Glenn Nov 19 2016 3:52 pm I watched the entire series about ten years ago, For the people who didn't see the whole series, Sul-Chil and her office aide got married; Iihan and Mi-Chil got married. Tae-ja and Jong-Chil got married; Tae-ja got his draft notice and his mother was worried about being separated from her son; Sul-chil invites Tae-ja's mother to her military base and gives her a tour and arranges for Tae-ja to be posted at her base so his mother can easily visit him; the is a funny scene when Tae-ja tries to hide from Jong-Chil in the men's restroom and Jong-Chil charges into the men's restroom after him.
le Jan 28 2016 10:30 pm great drama. i saw some episodes on tv but they quit showing it, so i never got to see the ending. viewers please request this drama on kbsworld's youtube channel. maybe with enough interest they might share this drama's episode videos like they do with other old dramas.
Eugene Jul 16 2014 1:12 am Great show! Have seen it several times! Love Park Hae Jin and Lee Tae Ran.
