A Prefabricated Family

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.

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.

"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.

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 do get that k-dramas, even when they are boring are somewhat comforting! You cannot simply relate to any other drama industry that way, but it happens naturally with k-dramas. The story, characters, actors, everything was good, however I skipped a lot of scenes. They should have wrapped up the story in 10 episodes instead of 16. A lot of scenes seemed stretched. It would have turned out better that way. A lot of people watched this drama because of Inyoup but if we do a comparison, True Beauty had a far better storyline. Inyoup, as expected pulled his character really well and so did the other actors. But the episodes after episode 6 were very much skippable and I couldn't keep watching the whole episode. Given the rating I expected more, but was somewhat disappointed. There are a lot of other kdramas with a much better story and the fact they have lower ratings is very upsetting. Also there was next to none chemistry between the main leads... It seemed rushed and forced.
