A good casual family drama - perfect to have on while multitasking

I got into Never Twice because of the clips I saw of some well dressed guy crying when a baby he was holding was getting his vaccination shots; this was just so authentic and adorable that I had to understand the context. Unfortunately, I'm a bit disappointed that the baby wasn't more of a character in this drama...I'm a sucker for babies/kids playing a vital role in the overall plot of the story.

I stayed invested in this story because I wanted to know how the bad guys got karma handed to them and how the good guys prevailed. Things got tangled between the characters, which I didn't mind at all.
I was most interested in the main characters, Na Hae Jun and Geum Bak Ha. I also had an odd gravitation toward the chef, Choi Man Ho and his wife, Yang Geum Hee - their story was so bittersweet. And while initially I didn't care much either way for the other side characters (I especially didn't care for the gold digger, Bang Eun Ji, and the golfer, Gam Poong Ki), by the end of the drama, I came to appreciate that they too found their happiness in the end. In particular, the romance between Bok Mak Rye and Choi Geo Bok was really sweet...seeing second chance love stories between elderly couples are kind of adorable.

I liked that the 2 very spoiled, twisted, self-centered daughter-in-laws got what was coming for them finally. And their character development was nice in the end.

The ending was very nicely wrapped up - I personally felt myself getting a little sentimental at the end.

Would I watch Never Twice again? No, probably not. But it was one of those dramas where you didn't have to catch every word. I very easily followed along while multitasking (only towards the end of the drama did I tune in more). This is a pretty predictable family drama, but there's not over-the-top acting or drama, just what you've come to expect from corporate politics K-dramas.
