Why why why

I had 4 episodes to go before I realized I could actually invoke my personal choice of dropping this dead beat drama.

Which producer and financier agreed to pay money to make this drama?
Why was this drama made? For what reason - seriously - for what and who on earth was this drama made?

Copied story, plagiarized scenes, clichéd interaction, poor acting, sexist dressed females in tiny tiny skirts, boringggg romance, zero chemistry, my gosh......I'm not even angry at wasting my time, I'm just dumb founded that someone would make it, some magazine would list it as "must watch" and an idiot like me would get suckered into this sinking sand.

Help!!

A family drama......meh

I'm sorry - I watched this just for KYK under the genre of romance.
There is no romance, no chemistry and no comedy. The classification should have been boring drama created for the FL.
This is so pitiful.....ugh........not sure why he picks these boring family dramas which are totally not suited for his style and personality..

I would have loved to give it a 1 star, it was so boring.
Mediocre substance, nobody stands out.

But the one who unfortunately irritated me the most was the FL.
So miscast for the role.
And those idiotic bangs - gosh- clear her face for godsakes!! Or grow the bangs to her chin - we wouldn't miss anything anyways.

As an actor we need to see her expressions and emotions, and this one failed miserably with her looks and her acting in this role.

And seriously you k drama folks - you have a hidden gem with KYK and this is how you misuse him??
He can be the next global universal star / ambassador. Stop giving him these pathetic dramas and pay for skilled writers who will create a star based on his persona!

At a loss to describe this

This drama left me flabbergasted.
I was just beginning to up my ratings on J dramas and viola this comes along on Netflix.

Was it an undying romance?
Was it a mystery thriller?
Did it want to depict the existence of truly kind hearted foster parents or make underage abuse the thematic issue?
Why did the ghost come back again?

Truly nerve racking story with no focus, too many critical story lines, no idea what was the intent, purpose and genre of this drama.
It spilt water all over the floor and took a soaking wet mop to clean the mess but instead ended up with a soggy damp confusing wreckage.

Only watched it for KYK

So dreamy, KYK. I only watched the drama to watch him. Kdrama fixation.
Don't care if he emotes two dimensionally or whatever else people are complaining about. Just happy to see him glide by and watch that face!
The FL was also lovely and the rest of the cast was the good, underplayed k drama actors who are actually the unsung pillars.

I must commend that lady who plays the wicked mother.
Did not check what her actual name and age is, but she is gorgeous.
Not sure how she ended up consistently playing a philandering wicked mother - have seen her in atleast 3 dramas doing the same wicked stuff.
But she has the courage to continually play the terribly villainous mother and excels in her negative craft.

This drama needed a lot more intimacy because the slow burn is fiery but ends with cold water.
There was ample room for it but it was wasted with just despair longing.
Needs a serious fix.

What a sad drama with 2 superstars

Terrible story. Terrible acting by FL. She is supposedly a big shot in the k drama world, but seriously needs to watch this drama for herself and objectively upgrade her acting skills. She cannot do comedy and acting silly, dirty and stupid is an insult to people's sensibilities.

FL was great in Crash Landing and Something in the rain. However she totally ruined this drama for all her team mates by sub-par acting. Is it the story writer, the director, the makeup artist?.??
who agreed that clumsy dirty behavior can be portrayed so poorly?

Poor Lee Minho needs to erase this drama from his repertoire.

Not enough chemistry

There is no steamy kiss. Chemistry is luke warm.
The ML is my favorite so I tortured mail with watching every episode diligently.

He has some intense missing scenes in his other dramas but this one drags on.
They really some take our the steamy kids tag from title.

Just a tepid local story. Not even funny enough.

It had the potential to be a wonderful romcom but not sure what made it so mediocre.
The story, the FL, the guy who was chatting the FL???
Did not capture my attention nor interest.

Very mediocre

Nothing bad about this drama but nothing great either.
Just an average run of the mill story full of clichés.
Clichés are fine in a rom com where there is sizzling chemistry and great story.
Here the chemistry was tepid - especially the last kiss where they tried the acrobatic feat of kissing with a four feet distance.
Except the second male lead, no character was interesting.
A little bit of overacting from a bunch of side actors like the mother, the boss's wife etc.

Sigh - what a waste of a cute male lead.

Just make a separate drama with the mother in the lead, for God's sake!!

I have seen ridiculous importance given to mothers in Asian dramas - and you let it pass convincing yourself that it's a part of the culture.
But using a mother as a pivotal tool in determining the story is just a lazy or untalented screenplay.

However this drama transcends all boundaries of atrocity.
The mother in this drama is the lead and every other actor is playing a support role.

She is crude, tacky, greedy, atrocious......and this is not just the character written for the drama -it's her own overacting and portrayal that makes you want to cry "enough already!".

Of the 22 episodes I watched, I tried forwarding her scenes, but when you do that, the episode ends!!@#. That's how much screen time she's given!

The story itself had some possibility of being intriguing. There was absolutely no romance between the leads till ep.22 and honestly you don't care anymore!
Its all about maama.....

Wow.....glory be to motherhood in this country where she gets a lead role with two of the hottest stars.
Miserable waste of time ??
