South Korea must be like some bizarre parallel universe. A major crisis ensues because Dan Dan is 27 and her potential beau is 41. It wouldn't rate a mention in Western culture but not so in this show! And the extent to which parents meddle in their children's love life beggars belief. Full marks to the script writers for the most astonishing and ridiculously delicious plot twists I have ever seen. It's like corn chips. So bad for you but you want more. And don't forget the cheesy music which sounds like a bad entry in The Voice, or something vaguely like Beethoven or Holst. And people in this show dress really well. It reminds my of when I went to Seoul and noticed just how much attention people paid to their loom.

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 is basicaly Korean Soap Opera mixing and throwing every twist and plot that you can imagine except that without sex(y) scenes.

The first 12 episodes go along well but then it just starts geting ridiculous and you realize theres 40+ of them.

Acting is decent although over the top sometimes (in accordance with the soap opera genre), basically mix a normal korean drama, a latino soap opera and mix in the plot of the sound of music without the music and voila.

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!

Too much screaming, yelling, stupidity, conniving, backstabbing scenes, which is the writer Kim Sa Kyung fault. Shocked she got 2021 KBS Drama Best Writer Award.

Poor acting overall, which is the director's fault, along with casting personnel and producers. Exception to the poor acting was for the three children actors who portrayed the Chairman's children. The children were excellent and two of the children won awards during 2021 KBS Drama awards.

Chief Jo is a pathetic, abusive, lying, devious, alcoholic character; the actress who portrays her has no skills as an actress at all. Unbelievable that she got the 2021 KBS Drama Excellence Award for Actress in a Long-Form Drama.

Chief Jo's mother and the step-mother of the Chairman are screaming, yelling, scheming, cheating, stealing, hurting, abusive, fraudulent characters; the individuals portraying them are terrible actresses.

Park Dan Dan character cries 75% of the time and is dumb as a block; the actress Park Ha Na can't act.

Park Dan Dan's father and step-mother are the same as the daughter's character, just plain dumb; actor and actress can't act either.

The step-brother and the rest of Park Dan Dan's extended step-family/almost family members are overall decent characters, to include Lee Se-Ryun character; the actors and actresses portraying them were overall good.

The biological mother of Park Dan Dan is a fraud; lying, unrepentantable, selfish, deplorable character; the actress is borderline with her acting skills.

The Chairman character is unappealing physically and morally and stupid; the actor has limited skills as an actor, which it is utter disbelief that the Chairman actor Ji Hyun Woo received the 2021 KBS Daesang Grand Prize for the Young Lady and Gentleman.

Also, that Ji Hyun Woo and Lee Se Hee got the Best Couple award for 2021 KBS Drama is a joke!

But so moorish, unlike, "Our Blues", there is very little social commentary. Initially I thought it was going to be a soap version of the movie, "Parasite", but it deviated substantially from that plot. There was only one actor I had seen before, everyone else was new to me. But a stand out actor was Park Ha-na, who played a baddie, hoping she doesn't get type cast, but can't find another series with her in it on Netflix. Orphan/abandoned babies at a young age are common themes with K-Dramas. One aspect which always, in my opinion that detracts from K-Dramas, is the over acting of the senior cast members, thankfully there were only one or two in this series cast. Also, something I noticed, some of the interior sets are very similar to, "My Golden Life". The front living/dining/kitchen of the mansions and the living/dining/kitchen of the lower economic home. Another negative of K-Dramas, is why do female cast always have to have white facial make up applied? But if you love pure soap, give this series a go, be warned, it's 52 episodes.

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.

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.

The characters were so despicable I could barely watch it. I never looked to see how many episodes this was and by the time I got to 24 I thought when is this ending, took a look and saw 53 episodes! After watching 24 I kept watching due to the time invested already and the characters only got more despicable - the writers fault. This drama should have been wrapped in 1/2 the time. The actors did fine given the script that they had, but you will end up despising just about everyone in this entire series. What were the writers thinking? The only cute couple is side story featuring Yang Byeong-Yeol as Bong Joon-oh the good looking and sweet medical student. The next best thing was side story featuring Ahn Woo-yeon as Park Dae-beom who is cute, sweet and puppy like who falls for an older rich woman. The most despicable character IMO is the father of Dan Dan - what father would every lock their daughter in a room with a padlock and not let her out until she breaks up with her boyfriend - it went from bad to worse. The main lead was trying to do the best he could with 3 kids but treated the women who loved him and his kids like crap. It took 51 episodes for him to come around after being fooled by another woman in the house and dating someone else, and more. The only episode I really enjoyed was the Final Episode - thank goodness! The only time I laughed was in the final episode when they both hit each other on the forehead. I enjoyed the guitar music and song and the ending for the lead characters was the only acceptable ending at this point or it would have been infuriating.

The plot had a good potential at the start, but the bad reviews were right, it gets worse as the storyline progressed. I kept pressing the fast-forward button because everything was so dragging, not to mention all the screaming, crying, whining and stupidity was making me want to throw the remote at the TV. I don't know why wasted so much time on this. I loved the kids though, they are the only ones worth watching on this show. At first the main character Dandan was tolerable. Then she started crying buckets of tears for something so petty. Really bad acting. Bad scriptwriting. Bad direction. Such a waste of time.

Be ready to throw things in desparate loathing at those characters you love to hate! (I suggest socks so as not to harm your screen). Looking for a serious down to earth drama? Go elsewhere. This ludicrous piece is totally for fun.

Please don't dis the actors for doing the phenomenal job of portraying well the malicious and conniving and just aweful humans in this soapiest of soaps. We all hate those characters for good reason and one of them is the actors are doing great at their craft!

The writer will leave no trope unturned, this is ridiculously funny. Just when you think to yourself at any place in the story,"Finally, finally, this is getting back on track and going the way I want it to"... well, forget it! Got a character you think is kind of okay? Hah, don't even try to make a connection. The writer pulls the rug out from under you every single time you wish to have even a little bit of satisfaction!

A rollicking great satire! Move away quickly if you can not take human beings being exposed in all their wretched flaws!

Started off good, I liked most characters then slowly i hated them one by one, i never used a fast forward button. The back and forth like and dont like, i like i dont like i like i dont like, i was ready to pull mu hair out...then the screaming, and those tears, i could water my lawn with everyones tears, every single episode tears, tears tears, i watched so i can see how they will get there just desserts. It just didn't happen fast enough for me. I was really hoping the last 5 episodes would just slow down and just have at least some happy moments. I did learn a few words in Korean, thats the only thing i enjoyed about the whole thing.

It started ok but managed to get worse at each new episode. Too much tears from the main character, side stories are truly boring, full of clichês and, last but not least, shows violence against woman as if it's an ok behavior.

I wish I did not start watching this drama. The story feels like an eternal loop.

I agreed with everything said in the other bad reviews and I'm only giving 4 stars because of the kids too. The three of them are adorable.

Most of the low comments and feedback has my resounding yes and have summarised my thoughts and feelings towards this show so I won't add much more but just to say I've never really forwarded many shows in my life but this show warrant forwarding lest you turn old and grey trying to get to the end.

And I totally agree with another feedback mentioning there's just a ridiculous amount of repetitive conversation.... has the scriptwriter ran out of creative ideas or vocabulary?

Giving 2 stars just for the initial story line but really just got out of hand and ridiculous. Could have finished the whole series in half of the total episodes it was filmed.

The love they have for each other is beyond, irrespective of the obstacles, challenges, pain and hurt they went through ...the betrayal.....the forgiveness everything is beautiful.....it just teaches you to remain strong, loyal, truthful and honest in all situations you find yourself.... I love this movie..... kudos.

I persevered with this show, all 52 episodes, hoping eventually it would improve!! There were moments of fun and frivolity, anger and sadness but it went on for far too long, with repetitive themes, the boring old 'will they, won't they' that has been done to death (and that was on this show alone!!).

I liked the actors but there was too much shouting/screaming, too many flashbacks, which seems to be the norm for Kdramas, and ridiculous plots.

There are far better shows/dramas to watch, so I wouldn't recommend this one, unless one of the actors is a favourite of yours, then maybe you can make it through. I didn't have this excuse...still don't know why I kept going...

Honestly, this series made my day everday. I love how the writer was able to put all those twists to bring out the good and bad side of each character. I can say the writers are very well skilled. Their reactions if it happen in real life, are very realistic. Well thought tv series. It is the reason why Korea is the master of all rom com dramas and get all people in the world addicted because your tv series are full of substance. I love how the writer put a love story in each character and did not just center on the main casts. I love how the writer showed real life situations in the lives of these characters and the consequences of such actions. It contains a lot of lesson - do not be greedy with money, always get real, do not fake, forgive your worst enemy, money will not make a person happy in the long run, love is about letting go, and to always consider others before your own, to himble ourselves, and God will be the one to lift us up.

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.
