I was so hesitant to watch this drama since I couldn't imagine being engaged and vested for a 52 episodes drama, but here I am 12 days later to announce that I have finished this show in record time. Honestly, I couldn't stop watching. I loved the story, the characters, and their bonds. I want 52 more episodes and will have to find another drama to fill the void this will leave me in.

I will admit, I did not care for Jung Hwan's mother storyline and would skip around when [SPOILER Hye Yeong moved in with them since I could not stand how petty/mean/annoying she was to Hye Young; although by the end of the show I found myself liking the mother-in-law, which can show how well done this kdrama is. END SPOILER]

I also did not pay attention to the grandma and aunt/uncle/cousin's house and would skip their parts. But, despite that, I could not give this drama anything less than a 10. The feeling it left me with is rare, and it became one of my favorite dramas. So, even though there were two storylines I skipped, the core story with the rest of the couples/parents/characters I adored. Those two parts made up maybe 20% of the drama or less, so if I account for the rest it is a solid 10.

Now, don't get me wrong, this show is cheesy, but who doesn't love happiness and rainbows? If you are looking for a heavy, serious, cinematic drama, this isn't it, but if you want one that will make you smile, laugh, want to go hug your parents, and scream/cry/catch feelings, then this is for you.

If you are holding back from watching this drama due to the length, please do not let that stop you from enjoying this gem.

Now, go watch it on Viki or YouTube (it's on the KBS channel!)
