koneko kat Jul 06 2024 6:48 pm do love this drama....same with me.. i am watching again and again, beautiful drama with educated message...if ia miss si hoo.. i am always watching this drama..
Park Min Dec 20 2022 8:52 pm The first few episodes you get to see everyone going through break-up/divorce/remorse/grief/old love/unrequited love/infidelity just to clear any past relationship and prepare every single character to start a new romance/relationship. The leads' love triangle/square might be the worst one I've ever seen. They are also the weakest part of the drama. At the same time, the main leads had a ridiculous amount of kisses and face slaps that the ML began anticipating to be slapped on the face. Writing wise, anything related to them was mostly problematic.
The drama ran into some seriously stupid moments/events that made it dip into unwatchable cheap melodrama territory "temporarily" but it still have its good moments to pull itself back up. The drama's message about family and self-worth was well presented. The last 10 episodes or so were nothing but smooth sailing, minimum conflict and good vibes. Of course, they had to go for the "maximum baby making" route for the ending. Give it a shot it's decent.
CEO May 27 2021 8:37 am I started enjoying the movie as from episode 25. Gang-Suk's parents are comedians.
It turns out to be a very interesting drama
Rachael May 23 2021 12:08 pm Again, you can imagine from episode 1 to 26, Lee Dang-suk's sister who has a slight problem fainted twice and was rushed to the hospital. The parents whom she lives with never visited her in the hospital. What sort of drama is this?
What concerns her former school teacher that she would be bothered whenever she's sick?
The drama is so poor I must confess.
CEO May 22 2021 11:35 pm The drama makes no sense. It's not funny, not interesting, no moral lessons.
How can Dan-Ah be going out with Dangsuk simply because their families decided to do business together? How does granting a loan to a company to help offset their bills automatically translate into the children of both parties going out?
You know what? The drama is a trash!
CEO May 22 2021 11:33 pm I don't find the drama interesting at all. No suspense, no intrigue; such a boring drama, yet it has over 50 episodes. A big waste of time.
Santa Nguyen Sep 30 2018 12:26 am I just found out a few months ago. ( too late but better than never right?) I haven’t addicted to any drama before but this one. Everything about this drama as scriptwriters, dialogue, quotes, tradition, human beings behaviors, OST, all actors, actresses, is so beautiful. Especially, I am really in love with Lee Kang-Suk and Ha Da-Ah ‘s love story. I laugh when they’ re happy, I hurt when they’re sad, cry... Park Shi Hoo and Yung Young Hee did spectacular work!( in my opinion) Thank you all for making a wonderful drama . I just keep watching this drama again , again and again , what can I do now??????????
Shalom Sep 02 2018 8:57 am I watched the drama for the 4th time again...

Kim Nov 05 2016 9:18 pm This drama is beautifully scripted. The actors are excellent. I laugh, cry, and joy with every character. Grandpa has great wisdom. It's a must see drama. RIP Kim Seong-Min
Pammo Jul 17 2016 11:10 pm Very enjoyable 50+ episode drama. I am amazed that this drama isn't in the top 100 of most lists. It was educational and atypical of most "canned" dramas. The romance, the teasing, the family interactions and real life enactment of so many situations that could easily occur in any family was the plus for this drama. Park Si Hoo was the star of this drama and but for his exceptional acting this drama would have fallen flat after about 30 episodes. I am watching this drama again -- it is really good and worth the viewers time.
AsianDramaPearls May 28 2016 3:19 am The plot description above sounds a little too long and convoluted to me and giving the wrong impression. I have never submitted a review before I was finished with a drama, but I feel I must with this one. The reason I decided to watch this is because there were so many good reviews and high ratings on other websites (even some 10/10 which is pretty outstanding)--I'm not sure why the overall rating seems a little low on asianwiki. The comments below seem very favorable. I am currently on episode 9 and I just want to say that I am intrigued with this drama so far. Never a slow or boring moment and I can't wait to find out what's going to happen next. Everything seems impossibly "perfect" so far, from the actors and music to the sharp cinematography. As another person commented, I think I might be regretting that it's over when it's time for this drama to end! I'll let you know. Take care.
Mafiae Aug 31 2014 4:31 pm Everyone did a good job especially Park si hoo
mimiya Apr 30 2014 5:27 pm Love this show....Although it is a family drama and a comedy, I especially enjoyed the romance b/w Kang-Suk (Park Si-Hoo) and Da-Nah....It is rare in K-dramas to see a romance develop realistically based on the interaction of two personalities (instead of fate or silly opposites attract)....It was great to watch the attraction develop thru the banter, the dry-wit and deadpan humour b/w them....It was intelligent writing and great acting by Park Si-Hoo that made this one of the best romances I enjoyed in K-drama....Also enjoyable to watch was: the grandfather's wisdom, the schoolboy Dong-dong, Tae-young's antics and the Grandmother/aunt w/ her co-worker....For me, some parts, like the older son's romance, dragged and I skipped them, but it did not affect the overall enjoyment.....A truly memorable drama that I will watch again....
mina Dec 23 2013 8:55 am this is one of the best family drama i've ever seen!!
Patricia Hayden Jul 01 2013 5:41 am Park Si Hoo was awesome, very very sexy, his face is like a magnet, I couldn't look away. He made my cry 5 different times...The shower scene was not long enough...The 50yearold pregnant lady was a hoot, man she was very pretty. Dan ah was boring and too predictable. Noh Min's character suxed but he did well and looked great. the comic relief provided by Kim sung Min was perfect, the lady cop was too overboard and annoying. Loved the school boy..all in all another very entertaining Korean drama...lots of eye candy and tons of drama..

@Me: It doesn't matter whether it's against a woman or a man - it's wrong either way....
Yun Nov 15 2012 8:37 am Love this drama...I think this is the best drama that exploit Park Shi Hoo acting skill. Love him in this drama best from other drama he acted. I watched PSH other drama also but I fall in love with PSH and his acting skill because of this drama.
Wish this drama can be recognize better...
CiCi Aug 21 2012 8:28 pm I really enjoyed this drama and I like many of the actors and actresses in it. I thought Park Si-Hoo was so funny too. I knew he was extremely talented in serious dramas, but now I see he is just as talented in comic parts as well. He has that magic of when he is on the screen, you can't take your eyes off him and don't want to miss a thing he says or does.
NewKDramaAddict Apr 02 2012 2:57 pm @Gasenadi, who wasn't shocked about that slap!! I gasped out loud!
NewKDramaAddict Apr 02 2012 2:55 pm It was a great drama that gave me an opportunity to truly see the Korean family dynamics whether it was traditional or modern. I especially liked the opportunity to see daily life and gave me a better understanding of Korean life. I loved the couples. From the serious to the comical (Soo-Young and Mal Soon were just so funny!)
Gasenadi Feb 21 2012 8:05 pm The supporting cast and the lessons in Korean Culture kept this drama from dragging. The comedy kept me coming back for more (the "cheater" and the policewoman). The two college "stalkers" were so poignant, my reaction surprised me. I took points off for the totally unnecessary slap to bring Dan Ah "back to her senses". Uncalled for.
Han Dec 29 2011 12:44 pm i luv this drama <333. this was one of the dramas that got me addicted. it was so funny at the end yet romantic.
Tina Oct 11 2010 12:53 pm This drama has a great idea of story... I Really love the story,and scene.Romantic.Funny. Especially for the Actor and Actress (Park Shi-hoo and Yoon Jung-hee).
Sharii Aug 18 2009 1:49 pm The BEST drama ever..
