Comments

Park Min Mar 11 2023 3:31 pm This would have been great as a 16-20 episodes drama and more polish. The formula/concept didn't work for a 120(60) episodes drama. The first 15-20 episodes were really boring slice of life bits scattered, it does get a little bit better once they become "parenting daddy". The drama also lacked proper tension to keep the viewers engaged. Some very distracting poor performance by Oh Jung Yeon, her facial muscles were completely dead. This drama was her only main acting role for a reason. She also works as an announcer and TV presenter, I can see that working for how stiff she looks. There was an attempt but I expected a lot more from the drama, just like your kids.

saranghae Mar 24 2020 1:02 am just started it looks good entertaining and funny my best actress so far bangula

Hanna Apr 09 2018 1:14 am So sad after watching the last episode. Every cast doing their best, include the kids. This drama very great, warm, and lovely. I hope i can watch another drama like this. Nomu nomu cuae!

Shirl Feb 22 2017 3:32 pm Great show reflecting real life n promiting positiveness in every opportunity encountered. All acted well love the cast esp the 3famies n kids n grandmas. Nice bundled drama THUMBS UP!

sunbeam Dec 13 2016 8:16 pm @Elle - I agree 100% with what you said I thought the cast was great, blended well with each other and did a great job in this show. One of my favorite shows. I loved it and the story line.

The children were so darn cute - they did a great job.

Kil Hae-Yeon, Jae Min's mother was crude and out of step at times, but she had a warm heart.

No hateful characters, no revenge seeking parents, pushing children to marry someone they didn't want to, you know the usual Korean drama.

Congratulations to the entire cast, production crew, writers, etc. etc. Job well done and great story line.

Elle Nov 11 2016 2:34 pm Today is the airing of the last episode of this family drama. I am happy that it turned out to be a good use of my time! No disappointment here, thank you writers, actors, designers, musicians, etc.

Star Wars Fan Oct 11 2016 1:45 am Ye-Eun and Hyuk-Ki should be married. They both have the same one track mind about their children studying, studying, and advanced schools.

Elle Oct 07 2016 5:33 pm The acting is A+++, all the characters are multi-dimensional and believable, so good, in fact, that it would be difficult for me to choose a favorite from among these fine performers. Can you tell I love this drama!

Sunbeam Sep 17 2016 2:30 am Shin Eun-Jung is a pretty lady. The children all are doing a great job in their roles.

Kim Kyung-Nam is very good looking. Nothing like moving in to some one's house and taking over to make it a child care center.

Young Hee Aug 22 2016 12:20 am I thought something happened to this drama & got canned. I had finished Ep.68 & looking forward to the rest. The everyday concerns as parents in South Korea are well-portrayed. Hopefully it will return soon after the Olympics. Palli☺

Dakchigo Aug 21 2016 3:09 am Got preempted by the Olympics. It will return soon after the games end.

Missy j Aug 20 2016 10:15 pm What happened to the show? Any way of contacting the production co.?

kay Aug 17 2016 10:38 pm why was this drama taken off the air. it was a really great drama. please return it to television. thank you.

Sozie Aug 17 2016 2:13 pm I love this drama iam big fan ...why they stopped it ...its really a geat drama and my first 120epi drama it worth it fighting3>

Maria Chang Aug 15 2016 8:25 pm I have been enjoying this drama, but one day it changed to something else without any notice! What happened? Anybody knows? I always check this channel if they put this drama back, but so far something else is showing！ The story was in middle. I hope they can put this drama as soon as possibles,

what happened to this - where did it go? Aug 15 2016 1:11 pm This was a great show - but disappeared without a finale.

Sunbeam Jul 06 2016 11:51 pm I only saw 18 episodes, but it appears Joo Ye-Eun is the trouble maker. She always is trying to undermine Lee Mi-So, and buying all the bosses off. She must have an inferior complex thinking she is not up to par with her work as is Mi-So. Or she is just plain mean. It is going to take 118 episodes for everyone to fine out she is the one who is the bad person in the office. So far her mother-in-law has no idea what she have been doing to Mi-So.

It seems that Yoo Han-Moo and another guy in the office is on to Ye-Eun. Ham-Moo usually finds out what she is up to.

I like Park Gun-Hyung. He is nice looking and a good actor. I have only seen him in a few shows but he has been good in them all.

Didi Jul 02 2016 2:58 am That's really stupid Jake. There's no rule stating that only people who speak good English can share their opinions. It isn't the only language in the world. And at least her comment had a point. You sound like a stuck up 7 year old brat. Go learn some manners instead of being an ass.

Jake Jul 01 2016 8:43 pm In the beginning I found Sassy comments enlightening. However, her broken English toward the end was very off-putting.

No one speaks this way..."This drama is becoming a turn off. Parents controlling their adult children relationships. I have no tolerance for primitive and submissive way of thinking.

Perhaps if Sassy were to actually learn to speak and write English better then more people will take her seriously. I doubt it. She is probably spending way too much time playing online games and not enough time on improving her shortcomings.

Sassy Jun 16 2016 12:15 am JM's mom look like she crawled out of a box behind a dumpster. She had the audacity to come to MS job embarrassing her.The raggedy witch should have not been allowed to enter their office.This drama is becoming a turn off. Parents controlling their adult children relationships. I have no tolerance for primitive and submissive way of thinking.

Sonsarae Jun 14 2016 3:37 pm I really had high hopes for this drama, and then it went the way of all uninspired - just use the same old women tearing each other to shreads both at home and at work plot. This could have been so much fun but all it is is bickering and loathing. Once again you can't blame this dud on the actors, they are some of the best Korea has. I can't help but wonder who makes a writer/director do these types of stories over and over. Rewite it - make it something enjoyable. Win some, lose some!!

didi Jun 05 2016 2:13 am I am kinda addicted to this drama. but after I saw it has 120 episodes....well, let's see if I last that long...

Anyway, this drama shows the realistic problems that korea face in this day and age. It is good that the writers have decided to portray them in a light-hearted manner so as to not anger(?) people who are watching it. Every portrays their characters well. Maybe that's why I'm hooked on it now.

m May 20 2016 4:19 pm Park Hyuk-Ki, is such a JERK, want to slap his smirk right off his face!! Know men like really exist!!!

seoshidae May 19 2016 8:52 pm just check it...and whattt???? 120 episodes....hwaiting to my self
