Applause for effort
I am into more mature dramas so I was looking forward to this one that deals with infertility and adult relationships. However, it didn't go deep enough. It started with a very light and fluffy build-up, including the entertaining
Park Byung Eun playing Jae Young, a single dad and his story, and a cute beginning of the relationship between Ha Ri the capable career woman and Yi Sang, the eligible bachelor with the good heart.
However, after that, things just fall flat. The challenges and hardships around infertility, single parenthood, career demands, discrimination against single females, and the pressures of balancing family and work, are glossed over. The main leads go through angsty motions which are grating considering their age and supposed maturity, and it just becomes fluff that leads to a predictable end.
Overall, it was an enjoyable start with some fun characters, and I like the energy of Jang Na Ra since this is the first drama I watched her in. I applaud the attempt to illustrate some mature subjects. I just wanted more.
