Interesting

First, I love the mystery components of the series. It played out well.
Series revolves around a woman and her husband. She married him without knowing he was a man that wanted a model wife, and that he was manipulative.

On another note, it’s definitely exaggerated. From what I saw he didn’t actually commit a crime other than a fake attack. Why they called the police is beyond me. The series want us to assume that a man that wanted a woman who had more and was more wife material, is criminal. He didn’t appear to be a gold digger. He did however show controlling and manipulative habits (still not a crime). He dumped a woman b/c he thought he found something better. She didn’t take it well. Still not a crime. Maybe he was serial dater. Didn’t see that either! Women have done what he did but no one call in the police troops.

I did find the way that the woman was easily manipulated into obedience interesting. I believe that it fits into how things happen to some people in real life.

Needless to say, I don’t get it. It was interesting to watch though ??‍♀️

Definite must watch

I loved it. I smiled. I laughed. I loved how they displayed emphasis on the service industry and how hard these people have to work to keep a job in addition the little politics at play. It was a good balance of everything. I enjoyed the relationship between the leads. They had really great chemistry and the acting of the grandma was so amazing. No excessive drama. No psycho people. No stupid love triangle’s. No ridiculous break ups.

The cast did an amazing job. I honestly liked them all. Of course there was an antagonist but you’ll get a clear idea why. Yes there was a little plotting but I can finally say in this series that the little traps, mishaps passed like wind.

Surprisingly good

Good series. I’m not a big fan of mini series (I.e, less than 30 minutes) but this was actually really good. The acting, the scenery, cinematography and wardrobe were all excellent for such a short series.

Series definitely has some twist and turns which were executed well within the time. It revolves around a mystery affliction that affects people in a way that causes them to become violent. Before you run, it’s not to over the top. Most of the story revolves around relationships and finding the cure. Their action, some humor and swoon worthy moments. There was character growth that was portrayed so well in this series that I must commend the writer/directors. In series much longer, you may not see growth until the last episode but this didn’t drag.

It was short, sweet and worth the watch.

I’m going to be honest upfront. This review is based on me watching a few episodes and then skipping forward. I like the genre, the wardrobe and I can even deal with the revenge plot however I just couldn’t get into it and here’s why
1) the FL is popular, yes but the role just didn’t seem natural
2) her flirting in the beginning was overly cringy
3)didn’t like part of the plot, she was suppose to be a good person but she purposely used and deceived the one person who cared about her. It would have been better if he knew and they worked together.
4) I couldn’t find a character other than the ML that seemed respectable.
5) hidden identity troupe is overly play in to many dramas.

What I did like? the acting was ok.
Will I rewatch? No
Chemistry? I guess but it was weird.

The series started out slow and was consistent with it. Both leads had mellow moods. They rarely laughed, smiled or joked around. They had meek personalities with pushed the boundary of depressed. As with any drama I expect highs and lows but the writers gave few highs up to episode 18.
Up to episode 18, the writers have done a good job making us dislike the male leads brother. They painted a a good picture of the character but it’s taking forever for karma to peek out even an ounce., the ML brother was terrible but they made the male lead out to be this naïve, gullible character. It was like watching somebody get bullied or taken advantage of. You want to see an individuals true colors however, you really don’t wants to see it for that long.

As of episode 18, I can’t recommend it. It’s like watching two sad people being taken advantage of without even defending themselves.

Skip

Update, it’s finished: if I could get back my time. If there was an option to request it, I would. We dealt with foolishness up to the end and then they glossed it offer with a wedding we never saw and a hug. Most ungratifying family series I have watched and I have watched a lot. Not one redemptive thing.


Up to half the series (61 episodes) and this has to be one of the worst family/ daily dramas I’ve watched and I have watched a lot.
For starters, for 61 episodes, nothing has actual happened. You can honestly watch the first 10 episodes and then episode 61 and you wouldn’t have missed anything significant.

The FL appears simple, easily lead and without feelings. She maintains the same smile and deer in the headlight look for 61 episodes. Overlooking things.

The supposed ML is a good guy, with a need to sacrifice. He also smiles through everything, constantly ask his dad to “just stop” when he attempts to voice an opinion. He is in every essence a self sacrificing man. He lives with his in-laws for over 10 years even after his wife ran off. It wouldn’t be so bad if he was trying to move forward but he’s clearly delusional serving and struggling with his in-laws.

Overall there are really no likeable characters, not even the leads. I can’t recommend this as of right now. No character growth, development or reveals so far. Just the same old thing.


Update************

Up to 117 and it’s only gotten worse. I feel like they tried to hard to keep it interesting. Instead we got crazy, more irrational people and view disappointment.
If you’re bored, watch it. If you’re looking for something good and entertaining keep moving. After all these episodes there is not 1 likeable character, not even the leads.

Once I saw the male lead I just new that the series would be good! However after watching 21 episodes I slowly realized that this series had begun a spiral down.

I like the fact that they showed her thoughts out was kind of funny and interesting vs her talking to herself. There is some good action, cool fight scenes as well however there was definitely something missing from this and the big thing is common sense. The one good element that I’ve seen thus far is the loyalty that the female leads have for each other. The series portrayed a real sisterly love between the but somewhere between episode 10 and 16 they both started doing careless things, I.e trying to be super hero’s and sacrificing and showing signs of impulsiveness which could have gotten them killed so many times it’s ridiculous. Again not really funny or cute. Male leads were consistent to their characters of being loyal to the country or either brave. In love, our 2nd male lead lack some guts.

My hopes and rating for this series started out high. So many good points and high hopes however, I can see why the rating dropped. They had the female lead go from smart, independent and feisty to naive and clingy. Nothing about her character in the first few episodes gave me the vibe that she’d be one of those females that clung to a guy or situation like this. She went from a person demanding respect to a person offer herself up as a second wife to her closest sister spouse, that is where I lost hope for her.

Episode 1-10, were packed with funny elements, action and some plotting.
Episode 11-21 was full of the females leads constantly walking into traps that the average person would avoid,
Episodes 22-28 has some funny elements to it. It’s short lived. We see the stubbornness and manipulation that the FL has a gift for. Warning it’s frustrating. Not much relational progress.

Up to this point I’ve felt very little real chemistry or intrigue.

It was entertaining to watch. While this is tagged as a romantic comedy, I think it would be safe to safe the romance part is absent. To be fair, the series was okay. I really enjoyed the scenes with th e child in it. He was cute, smart and funny. The scenes with him and his dad were even more cute. I love the natural feel of their relationship. What I liked most was the awareness the child possessed and how he expressed himself. I also really enjoyed the ML assistant. He was smart, definitely attentive and absolutely comical. You’ll enjoy the laughs.

What I disliked was the FL character for half of the series. We spend the majority of the series with her pushing the male lead away, asking him to disappear and etc. although you get a few scenes with her being less difficult. To ellaborate, she told a lie and didn’t explain when others found out. I simply dislike her disregarding the child’s father like he was insignificant to the child life. Although things got better this was a major downside for me. This is the second series I’ve watched with the 2 leads and sadly, he was pursuing her in the other one too. Again, she was initially argumentative, often unreasonable and difficult.

I loved the family dynamic of the series. The child gave the series life. He was cute, smart and funny. The ML character was funny and caring. The father and son together gave me giggles I want expecting. I have to say, out of all the love child drama this has to be one of the better ones. There were no overly dramatic issues. There was a good blend of romance, comedy, cuteness, drama and karma with a good ending, Definitely enjoyable.

Starting was good and ending was good, middle was okay

I was really reluctant to watch this based on the reviews. Many of the viewers felt that the female lead was immature and naïve. Alas I had nothing to watch so I decided to give it a go.
I enjoyed the beginning of the series and how the characters established their relationships, I like how the self-made family started. I love the interaction between male and female lead On the romance scale, I would say it is very low. On the action scale I would say it’s pretty moderate. There is there little mystery to the series however it is enough to keep you entertained.
Initially I thought that the viewers just misunderstood the leads age and character as she is a younger character however after watching it for some time I could absolutely understand what everyone was saying.
First, here initial behavior stemed from her lack of knowledge about what happened. She gets a pass for that, but when she is made aware of the dangers to her life and continuously does things that could get here killed, that’s were she lost me. No matter how naive or ignorant an individual may be, everyone and I do mean everyone has a survival instinct in them. She appears to have no instinct and and appear to be more stupid than naive. Then we get into the moody behavior because someone intervened to save her life because they wouldn’t continue to let her put her self in harms way and the resentment came out. It things like this that lowered the rating.

Overall, I found it enjoyable. Would I watch it again? Definitely not. Why? It was really rather frustrating to understand the sacrifice that was made for the FL and then watch 40 episodes of her disregarding that sacrifice for something that really had no value, essentially a bragging rights gift.

This is not a romantic series, it’s definitely revenge

Series wasn’t horrible but it was absolutely predictable.

What I liked about the series was the FL ability to fight back and her boldness. That being said, there was nothing else I really enjoyed about it.
I am so over these aggressive mother-in-law‘s and the oblivious partners. This mother-in-law was beyond extreme. After the FL sister passes away she decides to take her place under the guise of raising her nephew but she’s really there to discover what happened and seek revenge. While I enjoyed her comebacks I just feel like The behaviors were extreme and the punishment and they have a really matches the crime. Two throw in the romance twist of course we have the devoted sister who was really there for revenge develop feelings for the very person who was oblivious to her sibling suffering and they all lived happily ever after.

I don’t think we should call this series love at all, more like deepest regret

I have one word for the series and that is predictable. I’m going to assume that this was a mellow drama because that’s what it felt like as I was watching it. I honestly thought that it was going to be good based on the first episode because the FL character was spunky and she showed how daring she was. That kept me thinking that it was going to be great but after that one event it just went downhill from there. Her character was one that was prayed on portrayed is troubled, sad and and borderline depressed. She did not smile at all throughout the series she just walked around doing things with this sad look on her face. Her tone of voice is never changed she was completely boring. Then we get to the plot itself which should not have been but it was. Do not read below if you do not want to spoiler.

I did not like the plot. It was absolutely predictable by episode two. Females leads dad runs off with the male leads mother when she was in high school. When the dad dies the stepmom takes their property. She then approaches the step mom son with the intent to do something. That was never revealed. Instead she got close to him as an employee and developed mutual feelings for him of some kind which never really went anywhere. He eventually realized who she was and they went their separate ways. It was no major character growth it was just one ridiculously sad series. What made it worse was that the male lead also had some troubles but he was trying. So in the end we had two leads who rarely smiled and never had a real relationship. I can honestly say I don’t know what the point or the plot was.

Not worth it

I have no idea who comes up with the titles for the series but this thing was anything but a brother trap. What we have in the series is essentially a clearly grown up woman who meets a person that she likes sadly she discovers that he is a younger sibling to somebody she dated while she was in high school. This is where the supposed Drama begins. I will not rate this series higher than a six simply because although it showed that the siblings had a sense of humility it also portrayed the characters in a way that seemed inconsistent. I fail to understand how you would supposedly surrender your love to someone else as if they were yours to give away. I see that cliché type of thing happening often in these dramas however that is a major no-no to me.

There was no mystery in the series. There was no real romance in this series. There really wasn’t even a love triangle. It wasn’t like two men were really fighting for this one female. It was simply a realization and oh well I’ll surrender you because my brother still likes you. That type of stupid stuff. The only positive spin on this series is that the female lead wouldn’t accept being pissed off. The negative side of this is she actually went back with the person that tried to hand her off like she was a commodity. Normal people would’ve walked away from both completely. Alas neither she nor this series were norma.

I was trapped watching this thinking that it was really a trap..

Sweet

This was unexpectedly delightful. I honestly believe it was well written. The pace was very slow but there were god elements. It gave a nostalgic vibe.

Synopsis was pretty accurate. I loved how it portrayed the ML first innocent love and how he grew into a man and really recognized what he needed and wanted. Not a big fan of the family but there were not the worst I’ve seen. It wa s realistic and understandable. If you’re into the hometown vibe you’ll enjoy it. What I enjoyed most was how ML started at the bottom and worked his way up to a successful person. The friendships were a bit suspect but it was okay. What I disliked what the secret that seemed to go on forever. Later in the series you don’t see the main couple as much which was a total let down.

Overall good series.
