She was going to leave her stepfather but she stayed for her siblings, she wanted to leave the country side but she stayed for gwansik, she wanted to let him go but she knew he loved her as much as she loved him, she stayed in the kitchen she hated but she left once her baby was targeted😭💖
She gave up her dreams because she found bigger happiness in her family, honestly that’s beautiful 😭

And gwansik never defied his gramma and mom, but they were just crazy. It takes two in a marriage, the rest are just support
The gramma keeps saying the mom is a bad “daughter in law” so if she can’t do her “duties” she sure shouldn’t force more on her own DIL and expect her own son to stay quiet when she’d wanted his support

This is just so beautiful 😭 aesun is just a kid but because of her moms love and her love for her daughter and the support of gwansik, she stands up for the people she loves harder than she’d stand up for herself 😭💖 she looked selfish cuz she questions the adults, but she never acted unless her family was targeted

Gwansik was raised in a loud controlling house that he’s always quiet but aesun sparkles his drive to act and in the small moments, he’d take up pain for his family, change the “norms” for his family, remember what they love and he was also never afraid to point out the wrongs of the adults

Kangjoonie has always been an amazing actor, he not only perfects the goofy type but he really shines with the heavy emotional scenes and subtle fast facial expressions ✨
And my kijoo is perfect here, sweet and understanding yet smart and strong 💖

This and when life gives you tangerines aren’t just a 2025 favorite but worthy of the all time favorite list👍

Ep3 was really a rollercoaster😭

Exactly, two cuties in a pot🥹😭💖

Ep2 and IU looked SO cute with that eyeshadow 🤣💖

1st ep was really good, heartwarming, heartbreaking, simple yet so deep😭

Everyone acted well, mini aesun, mini gwansik 😭💖
And iu at the end😭 she’s so cute😭😭😭🤣

She’s always the cutest thing ever✨🤭

That’s why ✨childhood connection✨ is added, it’s destiny so it’s out of her hands🤣

Beside kangjoonie’s beautiful face, I love how his acting talents shine well, he’s not comically acting like a teen

He has natural cuteness but his “matureness” of being an adult and calm reflects well and he’s also naturally adorkable that he’s not being too “adult”

And kijoo is the cutest ever, she’s naive and she’s willing to learn

This gives me 2010-2015s old yet gold kdrama vibes
Cheesy yet fun

SKJ is as gorgeous as always and kijoo is as adorable as always 💖

I like the previous works of the writer so atleast it won’t be penthouse lvl 🤣

I mean what dramas aren’t predictable these days🤣
The last drama that shocked me
Was a bloody lucky day😆

We all know k entertainment are brutal, but it’s best to try and support her in her decisions
She was beautiful but I hope she’s happy with herself now too

I only watched one ep but, Yeom Jang Seon planned all of this?😆

Or well Daesan group did and he’ll will help SDJ?
But eunnam for sure approached him with intentions to use him before he used her
Ie, fuuunnnnnn✨🤣

Revenge dramas in early to mid 2010s were the best then they got too cheesy or too dramatic
But this feels like the og revenge makjangs~

Money flower and those days had the best revenge makjangs, and I got this quality vibes from the first ep so I’m glad to see it’s by the same writer

That’s the fault of the casting director and producers

Them being 31/35 isn’t a problem but they’re mismatched especially when the 2leads are supposed to be a few years older and not 10+ years older

There are a lot of actors that fit their age group
And there are more than enough scripts for these two to be 23/28

Exactly I hate it too, if they don’t mention it I’ll assume the actors ages

But if they mention it they better be consistent
Like you say love count had similar aged actors, so just make their characters fit them😆

so they’re in 2016?
