Story- Your average family drama. It wasn't as funny as I thought it was going to be. The plot was very good but there were too many episodes. It really doesnt start to get good till 15 episodes in. The ending was welcomed although the way they wrote the romance between Lee Min Jung's character and the second brother was a little rushed so thier ending was kind of like "Say what?" Thier characters were underused and their romance could have filled up more space and made the story more interesting.
Acting/Cast- Very good acting by the main characters of course but I did find thier pairing a bit strange. I mean JSW is more than 10 yrs older than PSH. The supporting cast all filled their roles well. As I said though LMJ was quite underused and I thought her character was cute/funny.
Music- Average OST; nothing memorable but fit the scenes well.
Rewatch- Its rewatchable but because the story is so average I'm not sure Id watch this again or not.
Overall Kimcheed Radishes is very good but would have been much more enjoyable if cut by 14 episodes. Id say watch for the leads.

The big secret is what drives the plot along, but there are some secondary plots and romance that help round it all out. I probably would not watch again, but mainly for the length and age of the drama.

If only....
Decent family drama with a big cast and a handful of varied stories, or that's what we were promised from watching the first few episodes! It started off great but it ended up over promising and under delivering. Almost every single story was neglected or ended up being under developed after 10-15 episodes, except two stories. Sa Ya's story and the eldest son Dong Jin's story, the latter one was terrible and boring. If you are excited to see Lee Min Jung then don't, she got ripped off of screen-time and was barely seen later on. From a first glance, there was a lot to like about the drama but it really ended up being disappointing.Was this review helpful to you?
Park Shin Hye, a star is born.
Park Shin Hye was the lead through and through.The story was well written, it maybe should have had an extra episode to punctuate the lead’s romance, but I suspect they didn’t want to show a pregnancy wrap up episode as per usual in these kind of dramas because of the lead actress’s age.
The brightest spot in view is the decent balance of toxic to positive characters, this increases the rewatch value. The usual crazy, loud, self awareness lacking characters where kept to a minimum.
The other main where also given adequate screen time and arcs. The elder characters were surprisingly not 1 dimensionally portrayed like they are sometimes are.
Most off the plot points are realistic. Most males would fall for a female who is inexperienced, positive, upbeat, untouched and easy to be around if they are in close proximity to her.
I highly recommend this one for those that like traditional romance.
