A Daughter Just Like You (2015)

I started this drama just to pass time. At first, I got tired of the continuous nonsensical fights in it.
When I almost stopped watching it, I saw thumbnails of some of the late episodes; a new face looking sad with love in his eyes, and I decided to hold on until that character is introduced.

Once the character came on, I started skipping everything else and binging one story. And the story was beautiful. Every new thing gets revealed was even more beautiful and made me fall deeper. The story took me through a roller-coaster of emotions.
That was the only couple I fell for. I loved how they were understanding each other. Even though they might have disagreements but they deal with it thoroughly like they both want to make it work and they take each other’s side even if they don’t make sense.
My rating could be a little inflated because of this part of the drama.

I still went back to watch the scenes I skipped because the other side characters were funny and meaningful. It grew on me.
All the characters go through a hateful phase, especially the very annoying mothers, but they can be very funny.

The only part I truly hated and never batted an eye to was the DJ. I couldn’t stand it from the beginning.
It is too long to rewatch, I don't think I'll think of doing that.
The instrumental OST was amazing. Sadly, I couldn’t find it anywhere. And the OST songs were lovely.

At the end everything wrapped up nicely. Thanks to this drama in many aspects, I feel revived.

The eldest daughter Ma Ji Sung with her husband and that musician were the most boring part of the drama. Utterly dull and bland, might as well just replace them with anything random and that would be infinitely better. Ji Sung's story line ruined the drama for me. It's a family drama without much melo, the characters were fine but I wanted to see more of the mother-daughters dynamic since that's how the drama was advertised. Both families had a good dynamic especially with Jeong Geun & In Sung and both fathers. Other than the silliness and the characters there's not much else to like about it. Anyway, It's a passable watch for a daily drama.
