In Korea, many married couples have dual incomes while raising kids. Affluent couples have the luxury of hiring nannies and pricey SAT consultants for their college-bound children while poor and lower middle class families with kids have to juggle childcare responsibilities while balancing work. In a society where young married couples are encouraged to have children without any provincial or government support for families with kids, working Korean couples are grappling with the issue of childcare. This TV series illustrates these issues and asks viewers what choice they would make for the sake of their children. (Source: MBC) Edit Translation

This would have been great as a 16-20 episodes drama and more polish. The formula/concept didn't work for a 120(60) episodes drama. The first 15-20 episodes were really boring slice of life bits scattered, it does get a little bit better once they become "parenting daddy". The drama also lacked proper tension to keep the viewers engaged. Some very distracting poor performance by Oh Jung Yeon, her facial muscles were completely dead. This drama was her only main acting role for a reason. She also works as an announcer and TV presenter, I can see that working for how stiff she looks. There was an attempt but I expected a lot more from the drama, just like your kids.

This was a lot of fun

I am a big fan of Park Gunhyung from dramas like I Do I Do and Spring.
There were no evil characters only human ones. Which was a breath of fresh air.
I usually find myself rooting for the villainess in most stories and in this I was happy we got a humanistic one
She played the rival to the female lead very well and we got to see her perspective.
Better than the cartoonish villainesses we usually get
Lack of chaebols was also a plus.
More focus on relationships between people instead of shock value.
The opening theme song 'Yobo' was hilarious.
I enjoyed how we didn't have any perfect characters either.
The parenting dad underestimated just how much work it takes in taking care of kids.
I was happy that he was not made an expert from the get go.
He got humbled and learnt to appreciate his wife and his mother
This drama gave me unrealistic expectations for daily dramas.
Most fail to interest me.
