If I can describe this series in one word, it would be “messy.” Yes, I’m aware that family dramas are long and sometimes slow paced, I am accustomed to it, and I often find it enjoyable because it it really gives a good build up however, this one is different. From misunderstandings to missed opportunities to missing families this one has it all. It took most of the things that annoy people the most, and put it all into a series. For example, two people who are looking for each other would casually walk near each other, and for longevity and entertainment purposes, the writers, would have them see something shiny and look away at the exact moment they could look up and see each other. It happened so many times that it was just ridiculous.


Spoiler Below******
The reason that I called it, Messy, was because of the situation itself in truth it is a reflection of the synopsis, but when you watch episode one and two, you will begin to see why they mention relationship with an issue. This is why I said it was messy. The writers essentially connected to families to each other by parents and siblings, intermixed relationship and threw in one variable that would make the situation even more messy. To sound this up husband and wife divorce and they have two children. The wife later remarries a man that has a child and they have another. Years later , the ex husband’s stepdaughter and ex wife stepson fallin love. So to clarify, the step daughter is not biologically connected to her step siblings, but the stepson is biologically connected to the half-sister he got from his stepmother. This is the type of method that I’m talking about and to make it a story, so weird I don’t care how they dress this up, it’s just not good. If that wasn’t exciting enough for the writers, they threw in more crazy stuff. And then I’m sure everyone will live happily ever after. What I do you like about the series is that the acting is good, the love was portrayed really well, but it was just not enough to keep me fully invested Due to the strangeness over all of it ?
