I had high Hopes for this drama due to the amount of hype and the high ratings I had seen on the internet. But I'm sorry to say, this drama was dissapointing in many ways.
I didn't particularly enjoy the drama or feel much with the characters. I was preparing myself with tissues because all family dramas are usually hard hitting, but this I couldn't connect with the characters at all.
First of all this drama is a remake of a movie which lasts not even 3 hours, the writer really had to drag the show into 16 episodes which is almost impossible to do and the writer really tried to include stories of so many people and so many sub plots that weren't necessary and made the show boring ultimately.
Right from episode 1, nothing captured me and made me addicted to the show. I was bored and always waited for something to happen, but nothing happened. I used to find excuses to not watch the show and had to fast forward the last few episodes so I could finally finish it.
The second leads role was such a waste honestly. I hated every scene the second lead came in just to make the male lead jealous. The storyline was suffocating honestly. I couldn't take his scenes though the character itself was a sweetheart. Every time I saw the repetitive jealousy scenes my frustration really went up. It was hard to watch.
*spoiler *
I couldn't fathom the fact that a high schooler was actually hugging and kissing a 37 year old lady, though he is still her husband. I found it so hard to watch.
I have to say that I really loved the Bonding between the family members especially the dad and the kids, was very warm to watch.
The osts are very beautiful though. Very unique voices and meaningful lyrics. Loved that.
I wouldn't really recommend and would probably not rewatch.
