I watched this drama because I like Ji Hyun Woo, and also wanted to watch a romantic comedy. Well I got the fun I wanted: there was a good bit of romance and a lot of comedy, to the point where several times I laughed out loud, and very much enjoyed this drama. The story was not original, but it was written well enough and focused on relationships, so it kept my interest. I think what added to it was the interplay between their past lives and the current lives; making comparisons between what the relationships were like then amongst the same group of people and what they are with the present time. The one or two flaws were mainly around character development of the Director Je, her son and Ja Rak. The acting was very well done, with special mention to the child actress who played Lee Pyung Ohn and did so with panache. There is a lot of cheese but it's good cheese and a fair amount of slapstick. The sincere moments were touching and you cried when it got emotional. The comedic parts were hilarious. What I really enjoyed was the strong female characters in this drama and in particular the lead female character who was spunky, independent, loving and smart. I also liked the character development of the male lead, which was gradual and realistic because while he had matured quite a bit by the end, there were still some of the 'fun kid' in him left which was by this stage a part of his personality. The music was good, a mix of Korean hip hop with ballads and some orchestra. Nothing really special but complemented the drama. What I did not like? It was a tiny bit slow towards the middle but it picked up after a bit. I did not like the character development as mentioned above with three of the secondary characters as it just did not make any logical sense. This drama is about family, relationships, feel good, root for the under dog and hate his detractors kind of experience. If you have watched a really sad or intense drama/movie, this is a perfect picker upper, because it will charm you make you laugh and lighten the mood. Very good drama which reminded me of 'Wild Romance' and 'Protect The Boss'. I would re-watch it.
