this drama is made for older audience.

I got this as recommendation when I finished watched Cindrella and the four knights. The synopsis also seemed similar where the ML is rich, spoilt, playboy. His mother comes across FL who has average family background but is smart, confident and hardworking. She tries to pair her son to the FL to tame him of his bratty lifestyle.

So the drama started with mother of the ML who gets into accident and after that the synopsis follows. But then it takes a 360 degree turn and the story focus is the older people and their adultery. ML father and mother both are tied together in loveless marriage. This drama is made for older audience, why the synopsis is based on kids I don’t understand. They were just like supporting character.t he leading lady is han myong in and whole story is based upon her. How she manipulated everyone and then she also expected everyone to be good to her. I was so sick of her.

Acting was top-notch by everyone.
Park Ye Jin in her character of the ambitious Choi Yoon Hee was excellent. The emotions that she poured into the character was really great and she allowed viewers to understand Choi Yoon Hee from different angles. I also loved Jung Gyu Woon as Lee Min Soo. Although he came off as a little attention seeker, I felt the scars that he got and understood his character.
But TBH I didn’t enjoy the older people screentime and skipped plenty of the adults’ scenes and mostly watches the drama for Jung Gyu Woon and Park Ye Jin’s characters. 

Although I skipped parts of drama whats funny is I still got the whole story and didn’t feel that I missed any parts. I wished if it focused more on the young generation rather than adults. Ofcouse many would like it but I think from the way that SYNOPSIS is the main storyline but this drama main storyline was the adults love square.

Honestly I wont recommend it. Neither I would have a rewatch.
