I thoroughly enjoyed this cute kdrama up until episode 24. In it, there is a scene where the male lead character's sister is sitting with her friends and laughing about experiences they had while they were in NY. One of these experiences was that of two black men trying to sell them a mixtape for $100. The story ends with them saying how scared they were and the group having a good laugh.

This is extremely problematic. I would expect the writers and producers of this show to be savvy enough to know that they have viewers from all over the world and from all walks of life. This scene is not only racist, but it perpetuates stereotypes that black people to this day are still trying to overcome. How ridiculous it is that in 2021, they thought nothing of putting this type of racist rhetoric in a popular drama. It is the same as depictions of Asian stereotypes on-screen. There is no difference. I am beyond disappointed.

This was good, not your everyday drama & could have been some better , but certainly wasn't the worst!

Goff performances by children, especially younger boy was adorable.

This went from ridiculous to absolutely absurd the further you got into the series. I get that the Korean culture is based on respecting your elders, but come on...! The characters made me crazy with their antics and screaming and the Madam...there's just no words. I spent the entire series being frustrated and wanting to hit the writer really hard. 😳 I had been looking at this series for several months because Viki always seemed to be recommending it, but I was hesitant because it's 52 episodes. It started well and was initially funny albeit highly prejudicial. One thing that I love about Korean dramas is that the characters always get what's coming to them. In this series, you're waiting way too long for that and you're forced to endure ridiculous plot lines full of screaming, scheming, crying and characters allowing abuse to happen. In every plot line, the parents severely interfere with their children's lives to the extent that the children become more mature than the adults who are continually throwing temper tantrums and scheming to break up or force their children's relationships for their own selfish reasons. Seeing the parents happy after tearing apart their children's relationships was incredibly difficult to watch. I would have told my family to take a flying flip off a rolling doughnut from the get go! I wonder if the actors had trouble acting those ridiculous scenes? I certainly would have. 🙄 The children were great and I really liked the 2 leads. I thought they all had great chemistry. By episode 38 though, I started forwarding through most scenes that didn't involve the main characters because the other scenes were too embarrassing to watch and all promises were empty ones. So much drama over a 14 year age gap and a fraudulent engagement. It is the most frustrating and convoluted story I have ever watched. If you love crying, screaming, manipulation, repetitive script (and I mean over and over and over...) and characters doing the exact opposite of what they've been told to do steady, I'd skip this one for your own piece of mind. It will seriously make you crazy.

Oh my gosh I can't stop watching this drama. I don't care what the haters say, this drama is so ridiculous it's so much fun! People who can't stomach the screaming are probably new to K-Dramas and are also bothered by the culture shock. Some dramas are geared towards different audience, they can't all be the type that make sense and serious. For some people this type of drama with love triangles and outrageous, unhinged characters are exactly what we crave!

The music for the happy scenes is cheesy fun, I can't stop chuckling. The romance between Mr. Lee and Dan Dan is so cute it makes me giggle with joy. Watching this is such a cure to bad mood.

The worst character of them all, Madam Wang, is doing such a great job to make viewers hate her with all their hearts. I have seen her in other dramas and she was often a dignified rich lady in those so seeing her like this doesn't bother me because that's just acting! Lol.

The fashion in this drama is nice to observe. The acting is great for the most part, everyone does exactly what they are supposed to do to make viewers feel certain emotions when seeing their characters. Love, hate, sympathy, anger, disgust, all on point.

I have watched hundreds of K Dramas and while I enjoy the likes of Squid Game or All of Us Are Dead, I also thoroughly enjoy this drama and the 50+ episodes is such a treat. It's great knowing it won't end so soon and leaves me empty hoping for another season, ha!

This is by far the campiest , trope ridden drama I have even seen; it tops Heirs in over the top. It's like a Mexican Telenovela that took Korean Ginseng with steroids. Didn't even know double amnesia was a thing ....aside from the racist bit in episode 24 ,it's a great distraction.

Watchable , but the writer needs a carpet call on episode 24 , there is no excuse or for that matter even a reason to had wrote that in , perhaps she should take a look at what Asians in the west face and think better of what she wrote.

Like I said, a trainwreck that you can't stop watching.
