Green Rose SBS Drama ( 2005 ) 22 Episodes Starring : Go Soo as Jerome Lee Lee Dae Hae as Angela Chou Kim Seo Hyeong as Gina Cha Lee Jung Hyeok as Edward Jung Synopsis : A " Green Rose " stands for eternal love . A love that only appears in heaven . This drama is about a man named Jerome Lee who has been accused of a murder he did not commit . He goes through many near - death situations where he escapes from being imprisoned and goes to China . However , leaving Korea leaves a very large scar in his heart because he leaves the woman he loves , Angela . When he returns to Korea , he focuses on one thing … that is revenge . He vows to take revenge to those who framed him for the murder . His target is Edward Jung , who is behind all the miserable things that have happened to him … Find out how Jerome Lee carries out his revenge by watching this drama and you can also see many memorable moments shared by the lead actor and the lead actress . Review : Go Soo really did a great job portraying his character . He really deserves to be a " Baek Sang " winner because of his convincing acting . He becomes strong and brave in facing all the trials that came to his life . I love the way he thinks of Angela . The scenes where he learns that his mother is already dead and he cries harder and knocks his head on the wall are really shocking . He is really a good actor although he is only a rising star . Lee Dae Hae is also good in her acting . Her crying scenes where she learns that Jerome is already dead and goes to the bridge to look for him are excellent ones . She really loves Jerome even after all the years that have passed by and she believes that he is still alive . I found her in this serial extremely beautiful , unlike in Sweet 18 . Her angelic face really suits her role . Kim Seo Hyeong is pitiful in her character . She loves Edward even though he tries to kill her . I think she ’ s insane , but I realized that her love for Edward is a pure one . She dies in the end when she tries to protect Jerome from Edward . Lee Jung Hyeok fits the role also . I believe the producer made the right choice for this actor as he is not good looking and he never had a chance to compete with the lead character . His excellent performance , particularly his evil acts , made me hate his character . Overall , I highly recommend this drama to everyone . http : / / www . spcnet . tv / Korean - Dramas / Green - Rose - review - r 1019 . html The worthies of past ages all sought the truth and did not deceive themselves . They were not like moths throwing themselves into flames , destroying themselves in the process . - Ta - sui Those who attain perfect wisdom are forever inspired by the conviction that the infinitely varied forms of this world , in all their relativity , far from being a hindrance and a dangerous distraction to the spiritual path , are really a healing medicine . Why ? Because by the very fact that they are interdependent on each other and therefore have no separate self , they express the mystery and the energy of all - embracing love . Not just the illumined wise ones but every single being in the interconnected world is a dweller in the boundless infinity of love . - Prajnaparmita The everyday life of people is like clouds and water , but clouds and water are free while people are not . If they would get to be as free as clouds and water , where would people ' s compulsive mundane routines arise ? - Dogen , " Rational Zen " There are , bhikkhus , two successive Dhamma - teachings of the Tathagata , the Arahant , the Fully Enlightened one . What are the two ? ' See evil as evil '-- this is the first Dhamma - teaching . ' Having seen evil as evil , be rid of it , be detached from it , be freed from it '-- this is the second Dhamma - teaching . - Itivuttaka That ' s not a strong bond -- so say the enlightened -- the one made of iron , of wood , or of grass . To be smitten , enthralled , with jewels & ornaments , longing for children & wives : that ' s the strong bond , -- so say the enlightened -- one that ' s constraining , elastic , hard to untie . But having cut it , they -- the enlightened -- go forth , free of longing , abandoningsensual ease . - Dhammapada , 24 , translated by Thainssaro Bhikkhu . Monk , don ' ton account ofyour precepts & practices , great erudition , concentration attainments , secluded dwelling , or the thought , ' I touchthe renunciate easethat run - of - the - mill peopledon ' t know ': ever let yourself get complacentwhen the ending of effluentsis still unattained . - Dhammapada , 19 , translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu . The world ' s end can never be reachedby means of traveling through the world , Yet without reaching the world ' s endthere is no release from suffering . Therefore , truly , the world - knower , the wise one , gone to the world ' s end , fulfiller of the holy life , having known the world ' s end , at peace , longs not for this world or another . - Buddha , " The Connected Discourses of the Buddha " Enlightenment is a way of saying that all things are seen in their intrinsic empty nature , their Suchness , their ungraspable wonder . Names or words are merely incidental , but that state which sees no division , no duality , is enlightenment . - Prajnaparamita It is essential that you neither despise nor grasp for either the realm of activity or that of quietude , and that you continue your practice assiduously . Frequently you may feel that you are getting nowhere with practice in the midst of activity , whereas the quietistic approach brings unexpected results . Yet rest assured that those who use the quietistic approach can never hope to enter into meditation in the midst of activity . - Hakuin , " Zen Master Hakuin " Here he ' s tormentedhe ' s tormented hereafter . In both worldsthe wrong - doer ' s tormented . He ' s tormented at the thought , ' I ' ve done wrong . ' Having gone to a bad destination , he ' s tormentedall the more . Here he delightshe delights hereafter . In both worldsthe merit - maker delights . He delights at the thought , ' I ' ve made merit . ' Having gone to a good destination , he delightsall the more . - Dhammapada , 17 - 18 , translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu If there were no freedom , beings could never disentangle themselves from the world . But since there is freedom to transcend the world , beings are able to become disentangled . - Anguttara Nikaya If we live our lives continually motivated by anger and hatred , even our physical health deteriorates . - His Holiness the Dalai Lama Irrigators guide the water . Fletchers shape the arrow shaft . Carpenters shape the wood . The wise control themselves . - Dhammapada , 6 , translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu . Meditation is like a single log of wood . Insight and investigation are one end of the log ; calm and concentration are the other end . If you lift up the whole log , both sides come up at once . Which is concentration and which is insight ? Just this mind . - Ajahn Chah , " Still Forest Pool " Not disparaging , not injuring , restraint in line with the Patimokkha , moderation in food , dwelling in seclusion , commitment to the heightened mind : this is the teachingof the awakened . - Dhammapada , 14 , translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
