A Prefabricated Family

Absolutely worth one's time. It has a lovely heartwarming vibe throughout the whole series. It is about family love and warmth, family nostalgia, loving unconditionally and what a great parent looks like. But what I loved the most was the characters. Such wonderfully written characters, not perfect but loving, accepting and empathetic. The father is a lovely figure, Juwon (the daughter) is a bundle of joy but with self growth, Sanha represents the pain caused by toxic parents, and then there's my favorite, Kang HaeJun. What a deep character, and what a stunning performance did Bae Hyun Sung give. The pain, the love, the smile, the tears. He's in my heart forever. Thanks for this drama, honestly.

An interesting drama about an unusual family headed by a widowed restaurant owner and his daughter who take in two children after they are both deserted by their mothers. The father of one of the boys also joins the group and the story shows their closeness as children and then due to family circumstances their drifting apart to be reunited later. It is based on a Chinese series "Go Ahead" and follows the original quite closely. It does handle the romance side better but overall I prefer the flow and story and interactions of the original. That does not detract from the fact that this version is still enjoyable and worth a watch.

I really enjoyed watching this drama it was funny and there are scenes in which you could laugh. I really liked the story and how they live together and they have a lot of problems and they still try to live a normal life even when people say things behind their back. I really like the story behind it and the message they are trying to convey. I really like the choice of the actors and i think it was well shot. I cant wait for the next episode i really like hwang in yeops acting as well as the other lead i think overall it was good and well executed. I also really like the connection and frienship between them. It is really sweet and cheerful.

I've been a huge fan of actor Hwang In-yeop ever since I saw him play the second lead in the hit K-drama "True Beauty." I've also watched his other works, such as "Why Her," "18 Again," and "The Sound of Magic." As for the female lead, Jung Chae-yeon, I recognized her from the K-drama "Golden Spoon." I also know Bae Hyun-sung, who played the character Kang Hae-jun in K-dramas like "Hospital Playlist," "Our Blues," and "Sweet Home" Season 3. Honestly, the stellar cast had me hooked from episode one.

I won't be comparing this to the Chinese version, "Go Ahead," since I haven't seen it. This drama was so good! After seeing the thumbnail with two boys and one girl, I expected a messy love triangle, but it was so clean and straightforward! The bond shared by the three main characters was emotional and heartwarming to witness. It was such a breath of fresh air.

The only sad thing was that we only had four episodes of San Ha and Ju-won's dating era. The story primarily focused on repairing broken familial relationships, which meant that the second leads, Hae-jun and Park Dal, didn't get as much attention. Still, I enjoyed their cute little love story on the side. I love how the complicated familial relations were portrayed. The leads had electrifying chemistry right from day one, and I honestly loved the writing. The dialogues were well crafted and effectively conveyed to the international audience.

I'm so happy to finally see Han Seojun get the girl, lol! I'm sad that it ended yesterday. It was definitely worth the wait and watch. Don't miss out on this one! Thank you for reading, and I hope you have a wonderful day.

"Family by Choice" has its moments, but it doesn't quite hit the mark overall. The show's chaotic energy between the three main characters is what stands out, keeping things lively and unpredictable. The dynamic between them is definitely entertaining, and it's easy to get hooked on their wild, offbeat interactions. On top of that, the romance between the lead couple had me squealing - their chemistry is undeniable, and the heartfelt moments are sweet.

However, despite these fun elements, the show still feels a bit lacking in some areas. The pacing can drag at times, and while there are bright spots, the overall storyline doesn't fully captivate. It's a decent watch, but I couldn't shake the feeling that it could've been more engaging. The potential is there, but the execution left me wanting a bit more. At a solid 6/10, it's worth checking out if you're into romance and a touch of chaos.
