Don't look at the rating. Watch it as a comedy and please, don't take it seriously.

Whoa what an awesome comedy. I am completely mind blown. Once again finding that hidden gem that hits the spot. I don't think there are any spoilers in my review but just in case, the tag is there because of 2nd FL and husbando so if you want to go completely blind, don't continue.

It feels like a parody and I am not sure if it's supposed to be but that's how I decided to watch it so I could forgive almost anything by the end. It was amazing watching a mentally ill person and her descend into madness (or ascend?). FL (the mother) is very strong and the way she deals with problems was refreshing. Sadly by the end her character (and strong mind) kinda deteriorated but who wouldn't... Second FL (or was she main? well...) stole the show which was basically all about her and she did so well. As everybody said, by the end the husband couldn't go any lower. I mean he was at -150 level of hell with all those nasty demons. Also a special highlight for the daughter of a friend/professor. You wouldn't expect the kid to be the only reasonable person in the room right? But you would probably also expect to move the **** out of that house.

If you go for it, watch it as a comedy. It's ridiculous, it's funny when it's not supposed to be and it's absurd. I really hope it was meant to be because it takes all the melodramas, makjangs and other whatever jangs and goes over the top while kinda keeping itself in checks.

Also with people saying there is no romance, I have to disagree. Yes, it is not a fluffy rom-com, it's not even rom. There is almost no "skinship" but romance is not the point. Though, it has slow natural progress and feels very... normal and comfy. No kisses in the show and I mean... do you really need it? Well, I guess you do but, hey!

OST was amazing and helped to set the scenes. I mean you get a ridiculously dramatic evil melodrama scene and then the classical evil orchestra starts playing and you think it's the soundtrack but NO THEY ARE ACTUALLY PLAYING IT IN THE ROOM and the character starts dancing to it and it's just so freaking over the top.

TL;DR: Don't look at the rating. Try it but watch it as a comedy (that tag is there for a reason, I hope) otherwise you might dislike it. Great psycho acting. Handles some serious topics but you still can't take it seriously. Definitely Hidden gem.
