Just enjoy it!

I had a lot of fun watching this drama. Twice. I don't remember ever seeing an idiot as cute as ML is. Actually, there was a lot of idiocy throughout the drama, but I guess that's the charm of this drama. Either someone will be amused by that sense of humor or they won't. For me it was an excellent escape from too serious matters and really excellent relaxation.
But this drama is not just about humor. It is also a neatly told story about responsibility, family relationships, neglect, abuse and trauma. Difficult topics are here, but covered with light humor, as if the scriptwriter did not want to burden us with drama, but only smuggled some "wise" elements. For me, this drama gave me food for thought, I was rooting for ML, who undergoes a transformation and we find out why he is the way he is. For me, there is a neat combination between lightness and laughter and serious themes. I really liked the statement that when a polite child comes home late, he gets a rouse, and when a naughty child comes home a little earlier than usual, he gets praise. As a polite child, I understand this perfectly :)
So if you want to relax and don't mind some shortcomings and sometimes idiotic sense of humor, this drama is for you.
