A Prefabricated Family

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 started Family by Choice for Hwang In Youp, and I fell for him all over again! His portrayal of Kim San Ha was absolutely breathtaking-his emotions, depth, and presence made me love him even more. Every scene he was in felt real, and I couldn't take my eyes off him!

But beyond In Youp, this drama had everything. The story was an emotional rollercoaster-heartwarming, heartbreaking, and funny in all the right moments. The bond between San Ha, Hae Joon (Bae Hyun Sung was AMAZING), and Joo Won was so touching. It proved that family isn't just about blood, but love, loyalty, and unwavering support.

From powerful performances to stunning cinematography, Family by Choice is hands down one of the best K-dramas of 2024. If you love heartfelt, emotional, and realistic storytelling, this is a must-watch! You won't regret it!

I dont really understand why people are so obssessed that if a drama is a remake it has to be exactly the same. This needs to be different and thats the whole point!! I am throughly enjoying the show and watched it without a pause till ep 7. So great so far . At first I was skeptical about the female lead acting but i really enjoyed her as well as the show continued. Its just your paradox nothing else. This show is really good if you keep your judgements aside!!!

Hwang in yeop 💜 Watch this without any judgements and you wont regret.

The actors really did a great job and so did the female lead.

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.

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.
