    Ending is blasé

    Was prepared to give this a higher rating until the very last episode which was blasé; updates and conclusions of ea. Family member was nothing to rave about and disappointing IMO.

    My stars go to the following: Favorite Couple: Mi-Rae and Security Guard (CEO's son) Favorite actors: Security Guard, Moo-jin (Mi-Rae's dad), and Mi-Rae.

    Best Scene: 2 father's fighting to protect their daughter, son (Mi-Rae's dad &Security Guard's dad the CEO)

    Overall was a cute romance with my favorite couple. Story was more about family struggles than romance though as the title might suggest, and the family struggles didn't really interest me that much other than the security guard's career struggle.

    Starts off as a murder mystery when the place burns down but later turns into a ridiculous story that didn't seem that humorous to me. The funniest moment IMO was the fight scene between the 2 fathers as it escalates.

    ok drama

    The daughter is expressionless, cold, and has no energy in this drama. Mediocre actress. Must be hard for the director to have such a limited actor. If it were a much better actress, this would have been a lot better. She is not suited to be one of the lead roles.

    The young couple is boring and dull in acting

    The older couple and other experienced actors carry this show. .they shine.

    Overall it is a ok show. Family drama. I am not anyone's. Fan. Do not care about these kpop ypung idols. Actually . These young idols do not help this drama. Their acting is below standard level. Hope they cast someone with some acting skill.

    Don't watch it, it's total waste of time

    This series looks good with plot but poor direction, dialogues and acting make this series really dull and boring. This series has Female lead which is daughter of Family, she has very limited expressions, maybe two or three, I don't know about this actress but in this series her acting is not good. This series has one main plot and many sub plot but I think director forget about main plot and focusing on many sub plots. In Main plot story has two leads which is daughter (son na-eun) and Father (ji jin-hee) but interaction between them is very limited and in full series they have never sorted out their issues. Father act likes teen and even daughter also not looks like very mature which is claimed in story many times. From Rom-com perspectives no couple has touching chemistry they all looks too dull and comedy is also very lame. I saw ji jin-hee in DP2, his role is very limited there but In limited role he show his capability and how good he can act. I saw kim ji-soo in hwarang and she can act very good too but this is director's fault if he can't use that level of talented actors. Overall If you have 12+ hours to spare please don't waste on this boring series.

    My honest review

    The drama's episode 2 has released and here's my take on the drama.

    It has a promising storyline and hopefully it progresses like this as the story develops. The cast and crew are good especially Kin Ji-Soo. Yet to see Ji Jin-Hee's character development but both of them are good actors regardless.

    The negative part of the drama is definitely Son Na-Eun. Honestly that lady can't act and I don't understand how she is being casted. Throughout the two episodes her reaction are literally the same be it when she faints, when she exhausted, when she is overworked, when she cry, when she is angry my god there are no variations at all in terms of her expression of the emotions. She's definitely going to be the negative point of the drama should it has good storyline.

    A good familiar drama

    The first thing I wanna make clear here is that it's a good drama overall.

    The story that envolves a family who seemed lost when the father and ex husband come out of nowhere being the landlord of their building (and rich). The writers should have been praised here by how well they made everything interesting enough to catch our attention and make it humorously at the same time.

    While watching it made me think about my relationship with my mother and sometimes I saw myself fully understanding how hard was to Aeyeon to put Mirae back in his role of daughter and not the head family because I saw myself judging my mother for actions that it doesn't need my approval.

    There were some scenes that came so cringe that almost made me drop this drama, but I'm glad that I didn't that because it all worked well in the end.

    The plot twists, the way they wrapped up every little story made me feel like if they went to 16 episodes, it would turn out good too.

    In the end, I really recommend you to give a chance go this kdrama because it'll be a good choice. It's a good drama who have deep questions and a good end.
