Why why why

I had 4 episodes to go before I realized I could actually invoke my personal choice of dropping this dead beat drama.

Which producer and financier agreed to pay money to make this drama?
Why was this drama made? For what reason - seriously - for what and who on earth was this drama made?

Copied story, plagiarized scenes, clichéd interaction, poor acting, sexist dressed females in tiny tiny skirts, boringggg romance, zero chemistry, my gosh......I'm not even angry at wasting my time, I'm just dumb founded that someone would make it, some magazine would list it as "must watch" and an idiot like me would get suckered into this sinking sand.

Help!!

The usual tropes with a slight twist

This drama turned out a little better than the boring, run-of-the-mill productions of 2024 .
It had all the usual tropes of k dramas - orphanage, mother issues, unlikely match, contract marriage etc, yet it overcame those tropes with a coming of age spin.

The comedy - it was spot on¡! The second ML and his secretary were fantastic and they kept the drama going.
The Romances - there were 3 couples. The 2nd couple had a fun spin and it was interesting enough.
The 3rd couple had a new age and thought provoking relationship which came as a pleasant surprise.

This is actually what we , as non regional viewers were attracted to in the first place, the delicate handling of new age situations, but in 2024 only boring romances were made.

Now the 1st couple- I adore both the leads separately but they were totally mismatched as a pair.
When put together, she makes him look younger and he makes her look older - which is all irrelevant because love transcends age - but when the chemistry is lacking, then nothing works.

So yes, it was a 12 episode short fun run with the expected need to forward some clichéd nonsense.

A family drama......meh

I'm sorry - I watched this just for KYK under the genre of romance.
There is no romance, no chemistry and no comedy. The classification should have been boring drama created for the FL.
This is so pitiful.....ugh........not sure why he picks these boring family dramas which are totally not suited for his style and personality..

I would have loved to give it a 1 star, it was so boring.
Mediocre substance, nobody stands out.

But the one who unfortunately irritated me the most was the FL.
So miscast for the role.
And those idiotic bangs - gosh- clear her face for godsakes!! Or grow the bangs to her chin - we wouldn't miss anything anyways.

As an actor we need to see her expressions and emotions, and this one failed miserably with her looks and her acting in this role.

And seriously you k drama folks - you have a hidden gem with KYK and this is how you misuse him??
He can be the next global universal star / ambassador. Stop giving him these pathetic dramas and pay for skilled writers who will create a star based on his persona!

At a loss to describe this

This drama left me flabbergasted.
I was just beginning to up my ratings on J dramas and viola this comes along on Netflix.

Was it an undying romance?
Was it a mystery thriller?
Did it want to depict the existence of truly kind hearted foster parents or make underage abuse the thematic issue?
Why did the ghost come back again?

Truly nerve racking story with no focus, too many critical story lines, no idea what was the intent, purpose and genre of this drama.
It spilt water all over the floor and took a soaking wet mop to clean the mess but instead ended up with a soggy damp confusing wreckage.

What a sad drama with 2 superstars

Terrible story. Terrible acting by FL. She is supposedly a big shot in the k drama world, but seriously needs to watch this drama for herself and objectively upgrade her acting skills. She cannot do comedy and acting silly, dirty and stupid is an insult to people's sensibilities.

FL was great in Crash Landing and Something in the rain. However she totally ruined this drama for all her team mates by sub-par acting. Is it the story writer, the director, the makeup artist?.??
who agreed that clumsy dirty behavior can be portrayed so poorly?

Poor Lee Minho needs to erase this drama from his repertoire.

Just make a separate drama with the mother in the lead, for God's sake!!

I have seen ridiculous importance given to mothers in Asian dramas - and you let it pass convincing yourself that it's a part of the culture.
But using a mother as a pivotal tool in determining the story is just a lazy or untalented screenplay.

However this drama transcends all boundaries of atrocity.
The mother in this drama is the lead and every other actor is playing a support role.

She is crude, tacky, greedy, atrocious......and this is not just the character written for the drama -it's her own overacting and portrayal that makes you want to cry "enough already!".

Of the 22 episodes I watched, I tried forwarding her scenes, but when you do that, the episode ends!!@#. That's how much screen time she's given!

The story itself had some possibility of being intriguing. There was absolutely no romance between the leads till ep.22 and honestly you don't care anymore!
Its all about maama.....

Wow.....glory be to motherhood in this country where she gets a lead role with two of the hottest stars.
Miserable waste of time 😒🥺
