• Crowning Moment of Awesome:

Jae Shin: How about a fall to the death instead? (jumps off cliff) Kim Bong Goo: Why do you keep following [Jae Ha] around? Because he might spill a few leftover crumbs from his cookies? He has no strength. Join me; I'll have lots of cookies. Shi Kyung: I'm sorry, I don't eat rotten cookies. Queen Mother: Kill me! Do you think my children will bow to people like you? I'm going to avenge ... my Jae Kang, my Hyun-joo, my Jae Shin's legs, my Hang Ah's baby. As I fall into hell, I'm Taking You with Me. (She starts punching him. Weak, feeble punches, but they get the point across.)

• Crowning Moment of Heartwarming:

{{quote| Jae Ha: I'm a prince! We shared a room and spent WAY more time together! How could she like [Shi Kyung] more?
Jae Shin: You like unni that much?
Jae Ha: (crickets)
Jae Shin: (walkes to the closet) You hear that, unni?


Hang Ah: Are you afraid?
Jae Ha: Yes. Of everything. Except you. I don't think I can trust people anymore.

• Tear Jerker:

Secretary Eun: (rambling off about Jae Ha's new duties) Jae Ha: STOP THE CAR! Queen Mother: If we crumble, everything crumbles. The two of us have to get through this. Jae Ha: What if they kill Hang Ah and Mom? I'm not that strong a person. Shi Kyung: (who had been talking non-stop until that point) ... Hang Ah: (frantic) How can I rest? Do you know how scary Kim Bong Goo is? Jae Ha: (hugging her) Sorry, Hang Ah, for not protecting you. I understand now. Seeing you be like this ... how scared you were, how difficult it was for you. I know now. Sorry, Hang Ah. I said I'd make you happy, but I'm powerless. I'm so sorry.

• What Do You Mean It's Not Political?: A constant theme of Korean reunification runs throughout the drama.
  • In the very first scene of the show, the Berlin Wall falls.
  • Jae Ha plays Ave Maria (Bach/Gounod) version and declares, "Bach and Gounod were born in different places. In different times. Their music fitting together like this is amazing."
  • During the WOC games, Hang Ah delivers a heartfelt speech to an American soldier who claims that it's "just a game."

Hang Ah: Have you ever been separated from your family? People with the same language, the same history, who lived together for thousands of years--in one moment, separated--have you ever been split like that? Losing parents and siblings, destroyed by a three-year war--has that ever happen to you? I don’t know if this is just a game to you, but it has always been critical for us.
