Great family drama

This is probably one of the best family dramas I've watched so far. I don't watch them often, but so many times they get a bit draggy or makjang. That didn't happen in this drama. The story was lovely and heartwarming. I really liked all of the main characters for the most part - even the child actors. There were a few annoying side characters, but thankfully those characters didn't stay for the entire length of the drama. My two chief complaints were that the moms occasionally got a little screechy, but that's about par for the course in this type of drama. It never lasted *too* long so it was all forgivable. And the other was the tone down of one of the romances and that one 'romance' was a blip on the radar (wanted to see where that one went!) But overall, I was sorry to see this one end. It was such an enjoyable show (made all the better by buddy watching with a friend).

Lee Sang Yeob as Yoon Kyu Jin was probably the stand-out for me as far as acting goes in this drama. He played so well with all the other characters and went through a lot of emotional stuff. He played best off his on-screen brother, Lee Sang Yi as Yoon Jae Seok. They were hilarious together in the majority of their scenes. And I would be remiss to leave out Lee Jung Eun as Kang Cho Yeon. She was an adorable woman with heart and soul and a lot of great advice.
I enjoyed all the relationship pairings - most of all our doctor couple, Yoon Kyu Jin and Song Na Hee.
They had so many good family relationships in this drama - not just romantic ones.

The music was pretty good - but I'm not much of a music person.
I would absolutely re-watch this - even though it's 100 episodes (50 hours). So that says a lot! :)

If you love family dramas, this is one to add to your list. And if you've always been reluctant to commit to a longer drama but have been curious, then this would be a great one to start with!
