Every episode, veering between "oh my god!" and "oh...my....god" is why I keep watching this drama. Sometimes I want to fold the characters into a hug and other times I want to smack them upside the head. At this point, I don't even care about backstories. I just want to see what they get up to each week. Will miss them a lot when the drama ends. My favourite part is when the siblings walk behind each other without saying a word. It's just so natural.
Too many whiny unlikeable characters in this drama for my liking. The only character I can stand is Kim Bim's character. He's blindly loyal but his motives are pure, at least as far as I have seen up to ep 9.
That "Africa" scene gave me the cringes. The zebras? Lions? Giraffes? The background music? Lord give me strength.…
Was really looking forward to this drama but ep 3 and every time "Africa" is mentioned I want to don boxing gloves. Guess it's time to move. I'll read a recap when the drama is done.
That "Africa" scene gave me the cringes. The zebras? Lions? Giraffes? The background music? Lord give me strength. Is there nobody in the filmmaking process with the ability to use Google? Let's start with the fact that AFRICA IS NOT A COUNTRY. You can just stab a pencil at a map real quick and pick a bloody country on the continent (there are 54), it's not that hard.
Then the stereotype that if you're going "abroad" to do charity work it must be to AFREECA because uno, they're all poor, without shoes, food or clean water. At least everyone was wearing clothes and there were no flies chasing kids around.
Rant over. Back to watching Lee Sung Kyung be a badass.

Kouta is so adorable. And I know Shinomiya is a manga cliche, but damn. I wasn't ready for his getting-ready scene.How…
8.3 is low? Japanese dramas do tend to get lower ratings but I think 8.3 is just about right for this. The comedy is beautifully executed in its over-the-topness.
I know the last scene of ep 11 is supposed to be hot but all I could think was "aww, how cute." Maybe because there hasn't really been much build-up in the way of sexual tension between the two.
Maybe later episodes will change my mind but the mum is manipulative. Ep 1, she says she was going to faint to end the conversation. Ep 3, she uses tears to avoid accountability. That behaviour is separate from her mental illness and it's what I think feeds Nat's anger and frustration (in addition to whatever back story there is about his dad).

In all the drama delivered on the comedy and romance.
English is probably the worst language you could use to translate ANY language. It's super limiting.
Really enjoyed reading this article.
