Watched the first 2 episodes and I loved some of it but expected it to be more...grown up? Like, it’s got “edgy”…
I think Koreans are very good at taking the sexual side of life as a normal part of adult life and also in treating the ENTIRE human being, not just their hormones, like the western media does... So we see informed choices and organic propagation of events based on a deeper connection. That makes sense to me.
So... I am very happy not to be forced to watch the porn of ppl's private moments... I dislike voyeurism under the pretense of "drama worthy of adults".... I think Koreans are quite successful in portraying those moments with taste and showing two people walk into a room etc with a clear indication of why ...... and there is no need to follow them!!!!!!! I trust they know what to do... . and yeah there are kdramas with super artificially chaste people and that can go overboard sometimes. The unrealistic parts are these men who stay single not dating for like 10 years, waiting for their woman.... I wonder... where are they going for a quick fix in the interim... ?
but generally, I like portraying people as HUMANS, not just mating dogs.... and that is why I watch kdramas.
FYI ppl who started defending the show and ppl who said SML had no faults or that there is nothing wrong with ep 9,10 made me put in effort and redo my review and LOWER the rating significantly. It took me some thinking to do that because
I really do not want to hurt ML actor and Woo Ju actor with a bad review. I think they did a stellar job. The drama is totally theirs. There is no way to rate them separately so I hesistated to give the overall rating for the drama. BUT I DID IT.
Side characters are pretty good, SML is a mediocre actor - nothing personal - and FL cannot act - nothing personal, I am gonna skip anything with that actress in the future. Sorry but life is short. No time to watch bs.
And the script is trash and whoever asked for it and/or approved it is a TOTAL MORON. The script writer does not give a hoot - they can write the ugliest trash - and if someone buys it - they make a living by writing trash!!!! it is totally legitimate!!!!! So: WHOEVER APPROVED THIS SCRIPT IS AT FAULT. They should quit drama/movie business.
The drama started so well and then became FL-centered, and she led SML on, she started chasing him first, so we got to see FL and SML flirt and go on dates, and ML and baby barely on the screen, ML as a supporting ROOMMATE / HOUSEMAID character, and Woo Ju a decorative item to bait the audience to watch.
Overall, this drama is a CHEAT, it is a disgusting false advertisement. We did NOT come here to watch office romance between FL and SML. We did NOT come to watch 12 ep of lovey dovey young family with a cute baby either, We came to watch how 2 strangers came together to overcone their character flaws and traumatic past and provide a home for a baby and a family for all of them.
SML as the ffirst love, criminal dad, all their character flaws, HAVE TO BE ADDRESSED as it is necessary to clean up the past before they can continue into a new future, BUT THE PACING has to be such that it all fits into 12 episodes. Which is not easy but the producer chose 12 ep instead of 16, 20 or 50 eps. So - live with it and squish it all in without diluting the story,
AND THE STORY IS ABOUT ML. FL AND WOO JU. Not about SML.
DID AI WRITE THIS SCRIPT? WHO ACTUALLY WROTE THE SCRIPT? WHO APPROVED THIS SCRIPT????
The facts: FL initiated flirting with SML - when she got the job, she kept mentioning their previous relationship, calling him by first name, etc... SHE LED HIM ON... , he abused his office power to flirt back, and FL gladly continued flirting with him, until he went overboard with stalking her and she got tired of it AT THE VERY END OF EP 9, but she still did not stop him. It was by sheer luck that her need for a good housekeeper made her stop SML - her housemaid / babysitter was suddenly leaving and she needed to take care of that business. Suddenly, she realized that a good housemaid is more important than flirting in the office. She REALLY realized how nice it is to find a clean house and a fed, bathed and asleep baby when she gets home from dates with her first love. So she begged ML to stay and keep her life comfortable, and he consented. THIS IS THE SYNOPSIS OF THIS DRAMA.
THIS IS FL-CENTERED DRAMA, SO WE GET TO SEE FL-SML ON THE SCREEN A LOT BC FL IS DATING HIM. ML is a secondary character as a roommate who does free housework and babysitting while FL goes on dates.
*****It was FL who started chasing Sunbae when she met him at work, ah so thrilled about her first love showing up, and CONSTANTLY MENTIONING THOSE OLD TIMES. She kept poking him and mentioning how they almost dated**** He did not say a thing to her, she kept chasing him.
At that point, SML had no idea she had kid and ML, and he was a boss, so he used his authority to select her to work with him, and SHE CONSENTED, AND KEPT UP FLIRTING WITH ML, and totally completely forgot about Woo Ju so many times and used ML as a free babysitter.
FL CHOSE TO INITIATE FLIRTING WITH SML AND HAD A GOOD TIME FLIRTING WITH HIM UNTIL THE END OF EP 9.
Until the end of ep 9, FL had the same expression with SML or with ML.. bc that actress plasticized face muscles cannot move lol and bc she cannot act.
and she intentionally dragged both guys on the leash.... having a great office romance where she got to be promoted based on her romance, and at home she had a free housemaid / babysitter for free. She was going on dates and coming home to a clean house, fed bathed and asleep kid. WONDERFUL. She had no connection with Woo Ju, stuffed him into day care without any preparation or talk, left him with babysitters at the last minute, did not show up to pick him up and caused terrible problems for the babysitter (ML at the interview), kept forgetting her phone and was unreachable as a baby guardian. FL WAS PLAYING AND HAVING A GREAT TIME, GETTING A FREE RIDE AND WORK AND HOME. She was Woo Ju's guardian only on paper.
******FL was so happy to spend time with SML and did not mind any of his actions -- his inserting himself to take her on dates and either drag Woo Ju or totally neglect him ....******
FL CHOSE TO INITIATE FLIRTING WITH SML AND HAD A GOOD TIME and she enjoyed SML and happily went along - until SML went overboard at THE END OF EP 9
So the very end of ep 9 is the first time FL is not happy to go on a "date" with ML. But still she did not send him back.
SML kept inserting himself and FL did not mind until he really went overboard- showing up at the show. SO VERY LAST SCENE OF EP 9 IS THE FIRST TIME FL WAS NOT HAPPY TO SEE SML. But still she did not send SML back.
AND SHE NEVER CALLED HIS UNCLE TO SEE HIS FIRST SHOW.
AS USUAL, FL DID ***NOT*** THINK ONE BIT ABOUT WOO JU FL by script is a very weak parasite, the drama is her love story regardless of how anyone else feels, she drags two guys and essentially tortures them to make her life comfortable, and she gives no thought to Woo Ju. SHE IS SUPER IMMATURE AND WEAK AND SLIMEY. And this actress was perfect for that role bc she cannot act, so she was just scooting along passively. There is absolutely nothing alive, attractive, or complex about this character. FL leads on two guys at the same time, and forgets the kid. NO INTEGRITY WHATSOEVER. A woman-child in every way.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The scene at the Woo Ju show where SML sees ML and says nothing, and FL did not even invite ML to the first show of his beloved nephew, are testimony of the total and complete immaturity of ML and SML and the reason why they are a perfect slimey match.
SML was a jerk, NOT TELLING he saw the ML there, then depriving Woo Ju of family time on weekend to go on a date .... SML was too entitled and too pushy and totally did not understand what it means to have a kid, and also, he ignored the thick feelings between ML and FL, and had the audacity to scold ML and tell him off.
SML is really an ignoramus and a very entitled and manipulative person, LED ON BY THE SLIMEY PARASITIC FL, WHO INITIALLY THOUGHT IT WAS FUN TO ATTACH TO HIM, AND LED HIM ON UNTIL THE VERY LAST SCENE OF EP 9.
So both of those are ignoramuses. FL and SML are a perfect pair. The best ending to this drama was that those two run off to the USA and leave Woo Ju to ML and some nice woman who loves them both.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ML had his share of ignorance, leaving Woo Ju just like his brother left him. But in some ways he had no choice bc Woo Ju came attached to FL as his guardian, he could not take Woo Ju alone. However, ML was definitely a man child and jumped out of this for wrong reasons, for his own insecurities instead of nailing down FL to talk with her and to realize she is just using him. ML grew up a lot since ep 1, but he still did not overcome this character fault.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
FL stayed a slimey parasite to the end - that peck on the face saying PLEASE HOUSEMAID DO NOT LEAVE, I LOVE TO COME HOME AFTER MY DATES AND SEE THE HOUSE ALL CLEAN AND A BATHED FED BABY SOUND ASLEEP... PLEASE!!! DO NOT LEAVE ME TO DEAL WITH THIS MESS!!!!
and then ML being forced to kiss her - out of what... ???? we never saw any moments between them that would lead to a kiss. It was soooo fake. FL has zero sex appeal and zero attractiveness and zero ability to connect. Kissing her at the airport after her PLEASE STAY I NEED A GOOD HOUSEMAID!!!! begging ..... has ZERO sex appeal and kiss is just not called for. The swhole scene is just ... clearly fake. ML actor really really tried acting it and did well but the overall scene is fake.
So overall, the script is super trashy and whoever ordered and/or APPROVED that script is at fault.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The drama was not supposed to be about ML FL living in domestic bliss for 12 eps!!!! The script had to show two adults ML and FL with heavy past overcome their issues and come together in rasing a kid and being functional adults and a romantic pair - overcoming their character flaws and pasts - overcoming parastitic life, lingering first love, abandonment issues, criminal family, etc etc etc - that was all supposed to be a part of the plot but sped up to fit into 12 episodes.
FL had to overcome her parasitic jobless life, and her first love - that should have been taken care of by ep 6 the latest... they BOTH should have confessed by ep 6 - say 1 ep for her to grow up and make up her mind!!!! - and then dealt with their other skeletons in the closet - his dad - say, 2 episodes; her weakness - say 2 eps; his love for photography, his brother - say 1 ep; then their quarreling about how to raise the kid, and overcoming their own darknesses and learnign to solve problems together etc - like how about her always leaving the phone, or he bailing out, or dumping Woo Ju into kindergarden, ... Woo Ju is shown as a perfect angel but we all know... that is not how life is ..... then them getting together - sharing the house as a couple - bills, obligations, communications, .... their non-existent sex life - we never get to see them behave as a real couple with romantic feelings - they are always JUST ROOMMATES!!!!! so all that muck - 4 ep - and about 1 ep of them talking about what it is that makes up the family and talking about themselvelves.... and there you go, mix all that throughout the 12 episodes, that's the drama!!!!
Meanwhile SML should have had SFL and they would take some time and maybe babysit, and there should be at least 1 ep worth of playing with the kid. Seems like this drama will take 1 ep to show how SML did not give up and how to get rid of them. Ok that's legit too, SML could have stayed pushing till the very end, BUT FL HAD TO HAVE SAID NO TO HIM BY EP 6 or so..... and his efforts to woo her should have been SECONDARY to the main plot ....
Heck, cut out SML somehow, SML is SML for a good reason - HE APPEARS LESS ON THE SCREEN THAN ML. HELLO!!!!!! otherwise, call him the ML and denote ML to the supporting role. SML and FL love story had most of screen time, and ML was just a supporting character to babysit while they went on dates, and that is a total and complete DISASTER, for the story and also for acting, ML and Woo Ju are the best actors here and most of us came to watch THEM, not fl-sml flirting.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ So overall, the script is super trashy and whoever ordered and/or APPROVED that script is at fault. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Imo ML actor did a great job, Woo Ju was great too, ML dad actor did a good job, and the friends and side characters SML actor is a mediocre actor, nothing special, and FL actress cannot act at all. Combination of cemented face 9due to plastic surgery and botox? and/or just lack of acting skills), and lack of energy are just super boring and unworthy of lead role. FL actress has NO energy nor skills to be a lead. Seems like she thought she could do some plastic surgery and lose some weight to land lead roles, and seems like that plan certainly did not work as anticipated, bc her lead roles are utmost flops. This role is about 85% flop, and Crushology and Witch are 100% flop.
What I learned for the future - to always skip anything with this director, writer and/or FL actress. Their work has the signature FLOP.
Tbh sunbae was never a bad guy. All of us,including me hated him mainly because he felt unnecessary to the story.…
The facts: FL initiated flirting with SML, he abused his office power to flirt back, and FL gladly continued flirting with him, until he went overboard with stalking her and she got tired of it AT THE VERY END OF EP 9, but she still did not stop him.

The drama was not supposed to be about ML FL living in domestic bliss for 12 eps!!!!

Is this drama worth watching? From the comments, it seems to be focusing more on the ml’s relationship with…
@Faririeeyy FYI million users are saying that there is NOT ENOUGH ML and the nephew, and TOO MUCH of FL and SML flirting, and then you write this comment.... "From the comments, it seems to be focusing more on the ml’s relationship with his nephew and not the fl. Is that all there is to it? " ??? hello, read!
If you're reading this before watching the second half of episode 8, please watch until the end of episode 9 and…
The sign was there the second we met the dad: he was standing on the balcony of a locked up apartment, and everything in the apartment was messed up, taken out, someone was looking through stuff. IT WAS HIM.
How did he get into the locked up apartment, and why did he tear through their belongings? HE WAS CLEARLY LOOKING FOR SOMETHING ... TO STEAL. AND YET NOBODY SAID ANYTHING. And stupid FL said let's build a relationship with this guy. If the chick did not come home and caught him, he probably would be gone without a word and then try again to break in .
I was somewhat smitten by his crying and holding ML's hand, he had me for like half episode
but ... when I saw him again at the building WITH A BACKPACK ON HIS BACK and kissing as@, it was super creepy. Hanging out with neighbors and befriending everyone was super creepy after his own son told him off.
When Woo Ju ate strawberries, that was suuuuuper extra creepy...
If the dad were serious, he would have approached ML directly and talked with him. Notice that in their conversations, dad never went over what happened and how he redeemed himself, they never TALKED about any past events, or the brother. Something was super fishy.
When he was entering and getting the lock key,...
FL telling ML to listen to this dude was disgusting and since it was her advice, it was an indication it was wrong
I admit I didn’t like Hyunjin through episodes 7-8. Was it because of the online hate or my genuine dislike?…
@Veronica M you are seriously off ..... I am not sure what you are watching.... A viewer who reads the comments first and bases their opinion on what they are watching ON THE COMMENTS is just not credible. So you are waiting for someone else to tell you what to see???? How can something you read inlfluence the opinion on what you are SEEING with your own eyes????? I do not trust your ability to SEE what you are watching.
Also, your comment make no sense at all. It is ILLOGICAL
First of all, in ep 9, SML should have annoyed you to show up at the Woo Ju show - and it did not annoy you. That says a lot about your lack of ability to SEE.
Then in ep10 the SML was put aside for the first time. So the drama took a U turn from what it was before. So how can you blame people who complained on the previous plot?
In ep 10 we have the pecking business kiss and supposedly a real kiss - and the fakiness of all that - did not bother you either? I do not think you have an ability to see. Honestly.
I think what i find irritating from some of your comments is your obession with her body like leave her body alone…
I think what i find crude in your comments is the tone and attitude as if you owned me and could make my own decisions and choices and opinions and told me what to do.
This is precisely why that dude is trying to shoot you down. Bc you behave like a super entitled brainless brat, very super extra offensive and disrespectful to others.
So cut it out :) If you dont like my posts, just block me.
I explained enough why I want to speak up about the real problem of this anorexic look and weight. FOR ONE, I THINK THAT THIS ACTRESS IS UNQUALIFIED TO ACT BC SHE HAS NO ENERGY, CANNOT MOVE HER MUSCLES, AND LOOKS LIKE A DRAG ON THE SCREEN AND I DO NOT WISH TO WATCH THAT. And, I do not wish to support this idea of torturing artists and forcing them to starve and have plastic surgery. I think it is totally about popularising unhealthy and I will speak up against that.
And who I watch and not watch and who I like and not like is none of your business, it is for me to decide, and I am telling you loud and clear, I dislike watching this actress and I will never again watch anything with her in it bc I already learned by trying to watch THREE of her shows that I completely cannot stand it. 2 I dropped, I was thinking of dropping this one too, but decided to try it, and gosh, had to fast foward.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND FINALLY OR DO I HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT YET AGAIN?
IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO READ WHAT I WRITE THEN JUST BLOCK ME AND STOP BEING A BORING PRICK.
If I hear once again from you like this, I will block you, bc you are wasting my time.
on MDL, Jeon Yu-ri is listed as the writer, Apparently she loves triangles and has a history of triangle dramas…
probably 1 lead and 2 assistants then but someone on this page wrote a post which I cannot find anymore that one of them stays on for all episodes one is for ep 1-5. and third for ep 6-12
So... I am very happy not to be forced to watch the porn of ppl's private moments... I dislike voyeurism under the pretense of "drama worthy of adults".... I think Koreans are quite successful in portraying those moments with taste and showing two people walk into a room etc with a clear indication of why ...... and there is no need to follow them!!!!!!! I trust they know what to do... .
and yeah there are kdramas with super artificially chaste people and that can go overboard sometimes. The unrealistic parts are these men who stay single not dating for like 10 years, waiting for their woman.... I wonder... where are they going for a quick fix in the interim... ?
but generally, I like portraying people as HUMANS, not just mating dogs....
and that is why I watch kdramas.
I really do not want to hurt ML actor and Woo Ju actor with a bad review. I think they did a stellar job. The drama is totally theirs.
There is no way to rate them separately so I hesistated to give the overall rating for the drama. BUT I DID IT.
Side characters are pretty good, SML is a mediocre actor - nothing personal - and FL cannot act - nothing personal, I am gonna skip anything with that actress in the future. Sorry but life is short. No time to watch bs.
And the script is trash and whoever asked for it and/or approved it is a TOTAL MORON. The script writer does not give a hoot - they can write the ugliest trash - and if someone buys it - they make a living by writing trash!!!! it is totally legitimate!!!!!
So:
WHOEVER APPROVED THIS SCRIPT IS AT FAULT. They should quit drama/movie business.
The drama started so well and then became FL-centered, and she led SML on, she started chasing him first, so we got to see FL and SML flirt and go on dates, and ML and baby barely on the screen, ML as a supporting ROOMMATE / HOUSEMAID character, and Woo Ju a decorative item to bait the audience to watch.
Overall, this drama is a CHEAT, it is a disgusting false advertisement. We did NOT come here to watch office romance between FL and SML.
We did NOT come to watch 12 ep of lovey dovey young family with a cute baby either,
We came to watch how 2 strangers came together to overcone their character flaws and traumatic past and provide a home for a baby and a family for all of them.
SML as the ffirst love, criminal dad, all their character flaws, HAVE TO BE ADDRESSED as it is necessary to clean up the past before they can continue into a new future, BUT THE PACING has to be such that it all fits into 12 episodes. Which is not easy but the producer chose 12 ep instead of 16, 20 or 50 eps. So - live with it and squish it all in without diluting the story,
AND THE STORY IS ABOUT ML. FL AND WOO JU. Not about SML.
DID AI WRITE THIS SCRIPT?
WHO ACTUALLY WROTE THE SCRIPT?
WHO APPROVED THIS SCRIPT????
It was by sheer luck that her need for a good housekeeper made her stop SML - her housemaid / babysitter was suddenly leaving and she needed to take care of that business. Suddenly, she realized that a good housemaid is more important than flirting in the office. She REALLY realized how nice it is to find a clean house and a fed, bathed and asleep baby when she gets home from dates with her first love. So she begged ML to stay and keep her life comfortable, and he consented.
THIS IS THE SYNOPSIS OF THIS DRAMA.
THIS IS FL-CENTERED DRAMA, SO WE GET TO SEE FL-SML ON THE SCREEN A LOT BC FL IS DATING HIM. ML is a secondary character as a roommate who does free housework and babysitting while FL goes on dates.

FL CHOSE TO INITIATE FLIRTING WITH SML AND HAD A GOOD TIME FLIRTING WITH HIM UNTIL THE END OF EP 9.
Until the end of ep 9, FL had the same expression with SML or with ML.. bc that actress plasticized face muscles cannot move lol and bc she cannot act.
and she intentionally dragged both guys on the leash.... having a great office romance where she got to be promoted based on her romance, and at home she had a free housemaid / babysitter for free. She was going on dates and coming home to a clean house, fed bathed and asleep kid. WONDERFUL.
She had no connection with Woo Ju, stuffed him into day care without any preparation or talk, left him with babysitters at the last minute, did not show up to pick him up and caused terrible problems for the babysitter (ML at the interview), kept forgetting her phone and was unreachable as a baby guardian. FL WAS PLAYING AND HAVING A GREAT TIME, GETTING A FREE RIDE AND WORK AND HOME. She was Woo Ju's guardian only on paper.
******FL was so happy to spend time with SML and did not mind any of his actions -- his inserting himself to take her on dates and either drag Woo Ju or totally neglect him ....******
FL CHOSE TO INITIATE FLIRTING WITH SML AND HAD A GOOD TIME and she enjoyed SML and happily went along - until SML went overboard at THE END OF EP 9
So the very end of ep 9 is the first time FL is not happy to go on a "date" with ML. But still she did not send him back.
SML kept inserting himself and FL did not mind until he really went overboard- showing up at the show. SO VERY LAST SCENE OF EP 9 IS THE FIRST TIME FL WAS NOT HAPPY TO SEE SML. But still she did not send SML back.
AND SHE NEVER CALLED HIS UNCLE TO SEE HIS FIRST SHOW.
AS USUAL, FL DID ***NOT*** THINK ONE BIT ABOUT WOO JU
FL by script is a very weak parasite, the drama is her love story regardless of how anyone else feels, she drags two guys and essentially tortures them to make her life comfortable, and she gives no thought to Woo Ju. SHE IS SUPER IMMATURE AND WEAK AND SLIMEY. And this actress was perfect for that role bc she cannot act, so she was just scooting along passively.
There is absolutely nothing alive, attractive, or complex about this character.
FL leads on two guys at the same time, and forgets the kid. NO INTEGRITY WHATSOEVER.
A woman-child in every way.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The scene at the Woo Ju show where SML sees ML and says nothing, and FL did not even invite ML to the first show of his beloved nephew, are testimony of the total and complete immaturity of ML and SML and the reason why they are a perfect slimey match.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
SML was a jerk, NOT TELLING he saw the ML there, then depriving Woo Ju of family time on weekend to go on a date .... SML was too entitled and too pushy and totally did not understand what it means to have a kid, and also, he ignored the thick feelings between ML and FL, and had the audacity to scold ML and tell him off.
SML is really an ignoramus and a very entitled and manipulative person, LED ON BY THE SLIMEY PARASITIC FL, WHO INITIALLY THOUGHT IT WAS FUN TO ATTACH TO HIM, AND LED HIM ON UNTIL THE VERY LAST SCENE OF EP 9.
So both of those are ignoramuses. FL and SML are a perfect pair. The best ending to this drama was that those two run off to the USA and leave Woo Ju to ML and some nice woman who loves them both.

ML grew up a lot since ep 1, but he still did not overcome this character fault.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
FL stayed a slimey parasite to the end - that peck on the face saying PLEASE HOUSEMAID DO NOT LEAVE, I LOVE TO COME HOME AFTER MY DATES AND SEE THE HOUSE ALL CLEAN AND A BATHED FED BABY SOUND ASLEEP... PLEASE!!! DO NOT LEAVE ME TO DEAL WITH THIS MESS!!!!
and then ML being forced to kiss her - out of what... ???? we never saw any moments between them that would lead to a kiss. It was soooo fake. FL has zero sex appeal and zero attractiveness and zero ability to connect. Kissing her at the airport after her PLEASE STAY I NEED A GOOD HOUSEMAID!!!! begging ..... has ZERO sex appeal and kiss is just not called for. The swhole scene is just ... clearly fake. ML actor really really tried acting it and did well but the overall scene is fake.
So overall, the script is super trashy and whoever ordered and/or APPROVED that script is at fault.

FL had to overcome her parasitic jobless life, and her first love - that should have been taken care of by ep 6 the latest... they BOTH should have confessed by ep 6 - say 1 ep for her to grow up and make up her mind!!!! - and then dealt with their other skeletons in the closet - his dad - say, 2 episodes; her weakness - say 2 eps; his love for photography, his brother - say 1 ep; then their quarreling about how to raise the kid, and overcoming their own darknesses and learnign to solve problems together etc - like how about her always leaving the phone, or he bailing out, or dumping Woo Ju into kindergarden, ... Woo Ju is shown as a perfect angel but we all know... that is not how life is ..... then them getting together - sharing the house as a couple - bills, obligations, communications, .... their non-existent sex life - we never get to see them behave as a real couple with romantic feelings - they are always JUST ROOMMATES!!!!! so all that muck - 4 ep - and about 1 ep of them talking about what it is that makes up the family and talking about themselvelves.... and there you go, mix all that throughout the 12 episodes, that's the drama!!!!
Meanwhile SML should have had SFL and they would take some time and maybe babysit, and there should be at least 1 ep worth of playing with the kid. Seems like this drama will take 1 ep to show how SML did not give up and how to get rid of them. Ok that's legit too, SML could have stayed pushing till the very end, BUT FL HAD TO HAVE SAID NO TO HIM BY EP 6 or so..... and his efforts to woo her should have been SECONDARY to the main plot ....
Heck, cut out SML somehow, SML is SML for a good reason - HE APPEARS LESS ON THE SCREEN THAN ML. HELLO!!!!!! otherwise, call him the ML and denote ML to the supporting role.
SML and FL love story had most of screen time, and ML was just a supporting character to babysit while they went on dates, and that is a total and complete DISASTER, for the story and also for acting, ML and Woo Ju are the best actors here and most of us came to watch THEM, not fl-sml flirting.

So overall, the script is super trashy and whoever ordered and/or APPROVED that script is at fault.

Imo ML actor did a great job, Woo Ju was great too,
ML dad actor did a good job, and the friends and side characters
SML actor is a mediocre actor, nothing special,
and FL actress cannot act at all. Combination of cemented face 9due to plastic surgery and botox? and/or just lack of acting skills), and lack of energy are just super boring and unworthy of lead role. FL actress has NO energy nor skills to be a lead. Seems like she thought she could do some plastic surgery and lose some weight to land lead roles, and seems like that plan certainly did not work as anticipated, bc her lead roles are utmost flops. This role is about 85% flop, and Crushology and Witch are 100% flop.
What I learned for the future - to always skip anything with this director, writer and/or FL actress. Their work has the signature FLOP.
it was FL who started chasing Sunbae when she met him at work, ah so thrilled about her first love showing up, and CONSTANTLY MENTIONING THOSE OLD TIMES. He did not say a thing to her, she kept chasing him.
At that point, SML had no idea she had kid and ML, and he was a boss, so he used his authority to select her to work with him, and SHE CONSENTED, AND KEPT UP FLIRTING WITH ML, and totally completely forgot about Woo Ju so many times and used ML as a free babysitter.
FL CHOSE TO INITIATE FLIRTING WITH SML AND HAD A GOOD TIME FLIRTING WITH HIM UNTIL THE END OF EP 9.
Until the end of ep 9, FL had the same expression with SML or with ML.. bc that actress plasticized face muscles cannot move lol
and she intentionally dragged both guys on the leash.... having a great office romance where she got to be promoted based on her romance, and at home she had a free housemaid / babysitter for free. She was going on dates and coming home to a clean house, fed bathed and asleep kid. WONDERFUL. She had no connection with Woo Ju, stuffed him into day care without any preparation or talk, left him with babysitters at the last minute, did not show up to pick him up and caused terrible problems for the babysitter (ML at the interview), kept forgetting her phone and was unreachable as a baby guardian. FL WAS PLAYING AND HAVING A GREAT TIME, GETTING A FREE RIDE AND WORK AND HOME. She was Woo Ju's guardian only on paper.
FL was so happy to spend time with SML and did not mind any of his actions -- his inserting himself to take her on dates and either drag Woo Ju or totally neglect him ....
FL CHOSE TO INITIATE FLIRTING WITH SML AND HAD A GOOD TIME and she enjoyed SML and happily went along - until SML went overboard at THE END OF EP 9
SML kept inserting himself and FL did not mind until he really went overboard- showing up at the show. SO VERY LAST SCENE OF EP 9 IS THE FIRST TIME FL WAS NOT HAPPY TO SEE SML. But still she did not send SML back.
AND SHE NEVER CALLED HIS UNCLE TO SEE HIS FIRST SHOW. AS USUAL, FL DID ***NOT*** THINK ONE BIT ABOUT WOO JU.
SML was a jerk, NOT TELLING he saw the ML there, then depriving Woo Ju of family time on weekend to go on a date .... SML was too entitled and too pushy and totally did not understand what it means to have a kid, and also, he ignored the thick feelings between ML and FL, and had audacity to scold ML and tell him off.
SML is really an ignoramus and a very entitled and manipulative person, LED ON BY THE SLIMEY PARASITIC FL, WHO INITIALLY THOUGHT IT WAS FUN TO ATTACH TO HIM, AND HAD THAT OPINION UNTIL THE VERY LAST SCENE OF EP 9.
So both of those are ignoramuses. FL and SML are a perfect pair. The best ending to this drama was that those two run off to the USA and leave Woo Ju to ML and some nice woman who loves them both.
ML had his share of ignorance, leaving Woo Ju just like his brother left him. But in some ways he had no choice bc Woo Ju came attached to FL as his guardian, he could not take Woo Ju alone. However, ML was definitely a man child and jumped out of this for wrong reasons, for his own insecurities instead of nailing down FL to talk with her and to realize she is just using him.
FL stayed a slimey parasite to the end - that peck on the face saying PLEASE HOUSEMAID DO NOT LEAVE, I LOVE TO COME HOME AFTER MY DATES AND SEE THE HOUSE ALL CLEAN AND A BATHED FED BABY SOUND ASLEEP... PLEASE!!! DO NOT LEAVE ME TO DEAL WITH THIS MESS!!!!
and then ML being forced to kiss her - out of what... ???? we never saw any moments between them that would lead to a kiss. It was soooo fake. FL has zero sex appeal and zero attractiveness and zero ability to connect. Kissing her at the airport after her PLEASE STAY I NEED A GOOD HOUSEMAID!!!! begging ..... has ZERO sex appeal and kiss is just not called for. The swhole scene is just ... clearly fake. ML actor really really tried acting it and did well but the overall scene is fake.
So overall, the script is super trashy and whoever ordered and/or APPROVED that script is at fault.
The drama was not supposed to be about ML FL living in domestic bliss for 12 eps!!!! FL had to overcome her parasitic jobless life, and her first love - that should have been taken care of by ep 5 the latest... then they should have confessed - say 1 ep for her to make up her mind!!!! - and then dealt with their other skeletons in the closet - his dad - say, 2 episodes; her weakness - say 2 eps; his love for photography, his brother - say 1 ep; then their quarreling about how to raise the kid, and overcoming their own darknesses and learnign to solve problems together etc - like how about her always leaving the phone, or he bailing out, or Woo Ju in kindergarden, ... then them getting together - sharing the house as a couple - bills, obligations, communications, .... - 4 ep - and about 1 ep of them talking about what it is that makes up the family and talking about themselvelves.... and there you go, that's the drama!!!! Meanwhile SML should have had SFL and they would take some time and maybe babysit, and there should be at least 1 ep worth of playing with the kid
So overall, the script is super trashy and whoever ordered and/or APPROVED that script is at fault.
there is NOTHING loving about that scene
and TOO MUCH of FL and SML flirting,
and then you write this comment.... "From the comments, it seems to be focusing more on the ml’s relationship with his nephew and not the fl. Is that all there is to it? " ??? hello, read!
the SML is there just bc she drags him - she chases him as her first love, and then drags him as her office sugar daddy
How did he get into the locked up apartment, and why did he tear through their belongings? HE WAS CLEARLY LOOKING FOR SOMETHING ... TO STEAL. AND YET NOBODY SAID ANYTHING. And stupid FL said let's build a relationship with this guy.
If the chick did not come home and caught him, he probably would be gone without a word and then try again to break in .
I was somewhat smitten by his crying and holding ML's hand, he had me for like half episode
but ... when I saw him again at the building WITH A BACKPACK ON HIS BACK and kissing as@, it was super creepy. Hanging out with neighbors and befriending everyone was super creepy after his own son told him off.
When Woo Ju ate strawberries, that was suuuuuper extra creepy...
If the dad were serious, he would have approached ML directly and talked with him. Notice that in their conversations, dad never went over what happened and how he redeemed himself, they never TALKED about any past events, or the brother. Something was super fishy.
When he was entering and getting the lock key,...
FL telling ML to listen to this dude was disgusting and since it was her advice, it was an indication it was wrong
A viewer who reads the comments first and bases their opinion on what they are watching ON THE COMMENTS is just not credible. So you are waiting for someone else to tell you what to see????
How can something you read inlfluence the opinion on what you are SEEING with your own eyes?????
I do not trust your ability to SEE what you are watching.
Also, your comment make no sense at all. It is ILLOGICAL
First of all, in ep 9, SML should have annoyed you to show up at the Woo Ju show - and it did not annoy you. That says a lot about your lack of ability to SEE.
Then in ep10 the SML was put aside for the first time. So the drama took a U turn from what it was before. So how can you blame people who complained on the previous plot?
In ep 10 we have the pecking business kiss and supposedly a real kiss - and the fakiness of all that - did not bother you either? I do not think you have an ability to see. Honestly.
This is precisely why that dude is trying to shoot you down. Bc you behave like a super entitled brainless brat, very super extra offensive and disrespectful to others.
So cut it out :) If you dont like my posts, just block me.
I explained enough why I want to speak up about the real problem of this anorexic look and weight. FOR ONE, I THINK THAT THIS ACTRESS IS UNQUALIFIED TO ACT BC SHE HAS NO ENERGY, CANNOT MOVE HER MUSCLES, AND LOOKS LIKE A DRAG ON THE SCREEN AND I DO NOT WISH TO WATCH THAT. And, I do not wish to support this idea of torturing artists and forcing them to starve and have plastic surgery. I think it is totally about popularising unhealthy and I will speak up against that.
And who I watch and not watch and who I like and not like is none of your business, it is for me to decide, and I am telling you loud and clear, I dislike watching this actress and I will never again watch anything with her in it bc I already learned by trying to watch THREE of her shows that I completely cannot stand it. 2 I dropped, I was thinking of dropping this one too, but decided to try it, and gosh, had to fast foward.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND FINALLY OR DO I HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT YET AGAIN?
IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO READ WHAT I WRITE THEN JUST BLOCK ME AND STOP BEING A BORING PRICK.
If I hear once again from you like this, I will block you, bc you are wasting my time.
Farewell :)
it is child's love, by someone who is an adult with 1000 years of experience, in other words... a hopeless case.
I think it is a waste of time to watch that :) Why spend 12 hours to watch a woman-child? Heck no to that.
but someone on this page wrote a post which I cannot find anymore that one of them stays on for all episodes one is for ep 1-5. and third for ep 6-12
