Notes

- All scenes shot in Korea took place on Jeju Island, while overseas scenes were filmed in Johannesburg, South Africa.

- A shooting site of 6,417 square meters was especially constructed in Seoguipo, Jeju for this drama.

- Production was shut down due to several cases of the H1N1 virus among staff members. This in turn caused the cancellation of the press conference and episode 1 being pushed back to air on 2009-July-09.
