Decent drama. Its main strength is its comedy which is great when the jokes hit but that's not always the case. The type of comedy you'll see here is similar to sitcoms like "Unstoppable High Kick", quirky and situational. Yet, the comedy around the middle parts (around 5-9) was weak and the story was slow. There isn't much romance since that's not the focus anyway. The leads had a good dynamic as well as the 2nd leads between each other.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Mom Has an Affair

Nope...
Well, to sum it up.... it's bad! It's one of those cheep tv-novels with no care or budget. It you look at some corners on the set you'll see it falling apart. They even use digital zoom and cropping instead of optical zoom in 2020!! If you were to use ChatGPT to generate a kdrama script it would totally crush this drama. BTW, it's called "Mom Has an Affair" but no affair to be seen anywhere!Considerați utilă această recenzie?

There was an attempt...
Well, I hated all the mothers in the drama. The writer did a really poor job with that theme. Subsequently, the mother-daughter relationships were neglected for too long and only were given attention around the last chunk of episodes. I wasn't a fan of the ending either, they created an event later on just so that the drama would have a climax instead of having a coherent story that leads to a natural climax (more in spoilers).There's a big problem with all the pairings/characters. Both ML and FL had zero chemistry and straight up bad romance. They were the worst part of the drama. The FL cutting off her hair to display a change is nothing but laughable. Mi Sun and her man-child were one of the most boring stories out there. Woo Jin was too goddamn dry of a character, the writer must have hated him. Mi Hye needed to have some brain. We didn't get to see Mi Hye & Woo Jin cuter interactions until way too late in the drama. The villains were wack. Everyone gets off too easily.
With all that being said, the drama had some nice moments but they will keep you waiting for too long between each one. The drama is one of the draggy ones so if you were to get into it be prepared.

Weak...
The drama's biggest flaw is that it lacked focus. Weak chemistry between FL and both men. There were some awkward pauses in dialogue and editing. Scenes and transitions were disjointed often. The writing was too loose, especially the infidelity plot which lacked complexity and nuances to be more "human". Sometimes it felt like watching an indie movie written by college students. The drama desperately needed a better build up, the infidelity happened way too early. The same thing can be said about production which often it felt off, although it didn't seem like a "lower" budget drama at first glance. It was really awful how the sound was peaking every time a character shouted.Go watch "Valid Love (2014)" similar topic but infinitely better.

Nope...
This drama got one of the worst 1st episodes. I really didn't like the cast's performance. Extremely superficial and full of amateurs. It's impressive how 99% of similar drama templates turn any setting into a business setting regardless of whatever the beginning was, and this drama is no exception. You would think the setting would be in this "school" since the drama advertised FL as a teacher at a traditional Korean school and also the poster/synopsis seems like it but no! After few episodes, everything become about business with the usual cringe shenanigans in every similar setting where they fight/sabotage/expose each other till the end. The "twin" was seriously cringe, unbearable! How many were killed? Simply, there wasn't enough justice anyway. Don't watch!Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Make A Woman Cry

Okay....
I was absolutely desperate for the female lead to get back to her old job of being a homicide detective because that's the only thing that would make this drama a little tiny bit interesting in the drama's setting. They completely shelved off the female lead in the last 10 episodes and put her on hold, instead they redirect the attention to a weird uninteresting cycle of irrelevant events to the main story. Which resulted in making the last 10 episodes feel like a huge drag.How would a writer escape once they are cornered? Introduce "terminal illness". With it, everything start to change magically. It doesn't matter whatever development/character the drama built up because all of that is irrelevant once the terminal illness is present. LAZY! Don't even get me started on the FL's journey to "forgiveness", absolutely laughable. The dynamic with FL and her in-laws was a big oof moment that was never resolved.
First half was full of students and the FL was doing exactly as described in the synopsis, then in the second half there was non of that and it became melo only. The same thing can be said about some character, for example, Jin Hee who had heavy screen-time just to completely disappear and never to be seen in the second half. The last two episodes were super artificial. Character who never given any attention suddenly got some like Gyeong Ah.
I enjoyed watching Kim Jung Eun & Lee Tae Ran, they are one of my favorite underrated actresses. The drama was fine, I guess. Anyway, serviceable 4.5/10 .

It's a miss...
I'm a huge fan of older drama but this one missed the mark for me. It was unnecessarily over-complicated for every relationship in the show. For every character and relationship the writing was good enough just to fall flat and flop around episode 11 without being able to recover at all. You may think the reunion plot-line of the sisters is the main focus but unfortunately it was given the bare minimum of attention, even the climax of their reunion was underwhelming. If and only if the ending was slightly tiny bit better. It just felt like this type of ending that they went for was unwarranted. At the end, it was too big of a let down, not a single thing went as I hoped for. At least let the bad guys win just to spike some interest in the drama.I asked my friend, who is an anthropologist, and he confirmed to me that Lee Seon Woo is a newly undiscovered human species; they may resemble conventional modern humans but they differ with one particular characteristic that is their empty cranial cavity. Truly a spectacular discovery, how could they function? A mystery that would never be solved.

Wish it was more...
This had 3 sets of twins, two of which identical, the highest number I've seen in a drama. Bae Doo Na solo carried the entire show meanwhile the remainder of the cast were dead corpses re-animated to life. The story cycles through the following sequence: Geum Hee does bad and promises to treat Eun Hee better just to backstab her few minutes later, rinse and repeat 10 more times until the last episode. I wish there was more variations. The romance was one of the driest, it didn't amount to anything, minimum affection and absolutely not a single kiss. The drama was somewhat fine until episode 15 started and it just couldn't recover after that. One last very important thing, there wasn't enough justice/karma or payoff at the end.By the way, the poster is totally irrelevant to the content maybe slightly relevant for one scene only.

Irredeemable
All males force themselves physically on females which is kinda repulsive, even one of them attempted rape. Lee Seung Ha was 100% pure scum the scummiest of all scums unmatched scumminess from start to end. The last 1/3 was intolerably stupid and the drama became irredeemable. The culprit/antagonist was left uncharged for murder or malpractice.Unfortunately one of the most deadliest diseases in K-drama world has infiltrated this drama too, the Korean brain worms that only affect female leads and female characters in general. She knew he was a serial liar and she was previously scarred when he attempted to rape her and physically assaulted her YET she proceeded to marry him, go figure!

OK...
It doesn't utilize its 20 episodes length in a constructive way for a relationship driven drama. There's a huge dent of inconsistency in the writing, sometime it's coherent and well thought out and other times it's as if it was written by someone who just started using a keyboard. A lot of things change and progress in the background without showing or reasoning with it and we are left to accept them and fill the gaps ourselves. For example, how the characters' relationships to one another turned out in the last 2 episodes. Anyway, the drama ended up feeling incomplete in many ways.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Big sadge....
What's up with the heavy inclusion of infidelity? All the characters surrounding FL are cheating: her mother, her husband, her dead father-in-law, the husband's mistress, the husband's brother-in-law, her sister, the lover and that one friend. For the main "sad" theme they overdone the sadness by incorporating an endless sequence of miserable events that at one point all the sadness became too forced. I would rather prefer a better build up and writing with the only misery/sadness is the terminal illness plot. Choi Jin Shil did most of the heavy lifting in the drama.The order of which the husband knew about the cancer and him being with his mistress was misaligned it should have been the other way around. The sister love life should have started earlier to give more focus/screen-time for her dying sister, the late intrusion of Dr Ji was unfortunate. One thing really bothered me is the amount of negligence from FL and everyone around her, if you feel sick with physical symptoms or see someone sick repeatedly over extended period of time then it's not normal you moron!!!! Anyway, it's sad but leaves a lot to be desired.
RIP Choi Jin Shil.

It's watchable...
The hatred and favoring of twins from the mother reminded me of "Wang's Family (2013)", unjustified favoritism from the mother towards a spoiled daughter who always get it her way. The twins' relationship, conflict, story, justification and resolution weren't given a good writing, on the other hand, the twins from "Famous Princesses (2006)", which tackles a similar story within the same context, had done a much better job than this drama.The pacing of the drama is odd and unjustified when changes, things start to change without proper building. The "high emotions/moments" didn't feel real or convincing, especially the ones as we were approaching the ending closer and closer. Many characters were expendable, especially the twins' father the most useless father in a family drama, no character no writing and barely any presence. Despite the heaps of problems it has, the drama is still watchable.

Watchable...
It seems like the writer cannot focus on more than one thing at a time, everything else is neglected, brushed off and barely got any attention. The story divided into three sections: the love triangle thing then Jin Woo & Na Yoon and lastly the section with the biggest chunk "the missing husband". The 4 listed main characters are only relevant for the first 1/3 then the remainder 2/3 is mostly (Yoon Jung - Eun Hye and Shin Ok/Taesu). Han Jin Kyung may appear once every 10 episodes and Han Soo Hyun got a random side story after the first 1/3. There was a clear shift in tone starting from episode 63 where the drama turned full melodrama, I wish they kept the same vibe as earlier parts. The last 20 episodes were endless repetition of the same words.Because of the "main" conflict, not a single couple ended up as I hoped, the ending is just unfair and was handled poorly. Han Soo Hyun was treated worse than a support character after the love triangle plot line was finished, they absolutely destroyed her character. Even when they tried to give her a story there was zero romantic build up, all we got is a time skip of her future at the end. This drama sucks when it comes to building relationships and romances. You may dislike Han Jin Kyung at the start, rightfully so, but you will end up hating Na Eun Hye for shamelessly guilt tripping her "husband" by using their daughter, even other characters hope on the same train.
One thing really bothered me is how not a single character had the slightest drop of inelegance to suggest doing a DNA test, instead let's just spend 70 episodes of endless doubts and stairs. Also, some of the casting decisions didn't feel right, the following actors didn't fit their character: Oh Man Suk, Jung Sung Woon and Lee Jong Won. The drama is watchable but it's a bit rough after episode 63.
