There is nothing hilarious here - Move Along

Here is what the drama promised: "The story of how people who hate each other the most become the wildest, weirdest, yet hilarious family begins now!"

What you get is
-serial killer(I know, right? in a supposed COMEDY)
- a FL who starts out great but deteriorates in to a pile of stammering, non-sentences, when confronted by her ML's mom
-2 cheaters (call it what you want but those two had a thing going on, I don't care what the story says because a married man doesn't go to another woman's house and stay all night to give her medicine cause because he is worried as a friend)
- a delusional-whining-crazy ex (see below) who thinks everyone should do as she says because it is all about her,
-another delusional stalker colleague that won't take no for an answer,
-a POLICEMAN who thinks the stalker can do no wrong even when she tells him she is going to break up her victim's relationship (it's his sister's relationship),
- a 37 year old hot tempered woman who acts like she is 14,
- her half-sister who is super flaky (but kind of likeable),
-a cafe owner who is raising a child (supposedly dumped on him by his ex??? ) but acts like he has never dated before
- a sister/sister-in-law who sold her own niece and nephew out over alimony money to give to a lover who dumped her and kept the truth from her sister for 30 years (how do you sit across from your own sister everyday for 30 years knowing you kept the truth from her - sick),
-a delusional-whining-crazy ex - yeah that one (see above) - woman who can't shut up about what happened 30 years previously (you feel for her at first but please know she is a snake in the grass) - she is remarried, supposedly loves her husband, has 2 great kids with him, yet can't stop droning on and on about how her first husband cheated on her and took her kids. Okay, I get the kids part - I'd go crazy too if my ex had taken my kids and left the country and I didn't see them for 30 years but this is 2023 - how can she not find these kids in the 30 years she has been looking??? Their names didn't change. When they entered the Philippines to live for 17 years they had to registered in that country somehow. It's not like she didn't have the money to find them - but I digress because no matter how long i think about this the writers are JUST not going to make this make sense - she moans and moans and moans till you get sick of it.

The only person I ended up liking in this whole drama was Kang Seon Woo. He is the only one who has any common sense and wanted to keep his relationship with Eun Sung going (she flaked on him too - loser FL character).

There isn't anything funny about this drama past eps 20 something. It's contentious, dark at times, nasty, hateful, spiteful, delusional, and whacked.

Save yourself the trouble and skip this one.

**edited - I came back after pausing for 3 weeks at ep 78 and caught up to current episode. My thoughts on this drama mentioned above in my review, sadly, have not changed one iota so far. The fact that they added 10 more episodes to this train wreck makes you want to scream to the heavens "whyyyy???"
