Yeah, That's How It Is (2016)

Story
I smiled and giggled like crazy while watching this, the stories and plotline for each characters are realistically and naturally told. It is like you were watching someone else life during this 54 episodes of which may be able to be extended to more and more episodes because there would be no boring moments. It is about daily conflicts in our society / family with no dramatic measures that commonly seen in any other dramas. I have profound interest to every couples and family members here. They were just funny and sometimes annoying. Even the supporting roles in here like waiter or colleague were taken kinda thoroughly. I wondered during my watching, how the writter could be so precise in determining the scripts. Moreover, she (writter) showed a lot of moral lessons to viewers. I reminisced of my grandparents too btw. :')

Acting/Cast
The casting are completely perfect and great to portray the characters. The grandfather was very fun and also the aunt. The acting was exceptionally great as most of them were senior actor/actress. The youngsters are damn good-looking except i didnt really fond of Nam Gyu Ri face who looked like a doll (probably over-surgery).

Music
This drama dont have ost which keeps you remember. The background music also rarely played during the dramas. I thought this made the drama so alive and simple. :)

Rewatch Value
Hmm i guess i will watch it again if i miss it later . I am typical who dont watch drama twice, but for this drama i probably will.

Overall
If you like family, reasonable, realistic, and not draggy drama, this one is the best and amazing one. (my personal opinion). I give it 10++ actually haha.
This drama has similar vibes with Reply 1988 which I found both are realistic and not silly like other dramas were supposed to be.

This is the longest drama I've watched so far. I love, love, love this drama <3
For me there's no boring moment in the whole drama. It feels like listening to a friend's story about their extended family. I especially adore the elders - halmoni (grandma), harabeoji (grandpa), Yoo baksa (Dr. Yoo, the youngest son) and his wife, and Yoo sajangnim (oldest son). Imo (grandaunt) and the second son have their own glorious moments LOL. Too bad it's cut short to 54 episodes from the original 60 episodes. Maybe some characters can grow more if they stick to the original number.

The life of this extended family is told without being overly dramatic. The mother-in-laws are realistically strict to their daughter/son-in-law but not crazy. The dynamic between siblings, cousins and in-laws is relateable.

Acting-wise, the older actors' acting is awesome! Some of the younger actors need to step up their skills. I've always loved Kim Haesook since "The Thieves". Wang Jihye's acting in this changed my opinion about her (saw her several times acting as a stuck up girl hehe).

I give rewatch value of 10 'cause I always watch every episode more than three times haha. I'm going to rewatch this at least once a year.
