Lee Jan 08 2026 6:43 am Brilliant! Thanks to all who made this show!

Kris Sep 10 2025 11:40 am Watched this drama some months ago, and immediately knew it was one of those that will never leave my head! I Love this family, and all their quirks and weirdness, and I truly love the connection of the husband and wife as well like this is exactly why I love Bae Doo-Na because she knows exactly what to bring to a role and delivers everytime! And I've seen Ryoo Seung-Bum's name around but what a great performance from him as well. Truly will never get enough a=of this drama and I Neeeeed a season 2 please :') I don't think I've wanted a season 2 this badly since Vagabond, but I would love to see this story develop and to meet with this family again. The connection is so sweet despite everything, and the gore is right up my alley like I really can't sing enough high praises. I'll be waitingg for season twooo~

SpinalTap Sep 09 2025 6:26 pm Wow, what a great series.

Gabby;

Song you looking for is Jang Eun-sook - "Let's Dance"

ds Aug 11 2025 12:44 am 1 All the actors and actresses did an amazing job — truly the best drama of 2025! I had stopped watching K-dramas for two years, but after seeing the preview on YouTube, I couldn’t resist. Such a touching and heartwarming family story that makes you laugh, cry, and reflect on life. Thumbs up to the whole team!

Gabby Jul 29 2025 12:18 pm what the title of the song while the female veterinarian torture the bad guy?

Kay Apr 06 2025 12:00 pm This drama is superb, waiting for season 2,

and the actor, Nam Yun Ho who play the priest really look like Nam Joo Hyuk. Even his surname is the same. Does them both related to each other?

Kris Mar 19 2025 11:56 pm It's so refreshing and from at least what I've watched in my time of watching dramas it doesn't seem to resemble anything else! Massiveeee kudos to the directors and writers of this drama. My jaw DROPPED several times but especially on episode 5. Very hot and bloody. I love the family dynamic and the growth that they have with each other. The relationship between the wife and the husband was shocking to me at the end but idc I feel his love and devotion to his wife genuinely! I can't wait for season 2 and this drama is just another reason on my never-ending list of why I love Bae Doo-Na! I've been watching Buried Hearts and that's captured my attention as well but so far on this kdrama list that I've made for myself, I'd completely give this drama 10/10! Truly Young-Soo's acting not only the last episode but also in her scenes with Gil-Ja or Hae-Pal, and definitely in the scenes with herself where she has these subtleties of trying to be more mother-like and warm are amazing to watch! The smiling in the mirror bit was my favorite part. Also either it was nicely paced or I really enjoy the fact that it's only 6 episodes. In this case they came with a story and complicated characters but showed strength within the family, humor along with gore and blood (for me I'm pleasantly surprised the lengths they went to though ofc it became unsettling at times, it speaks to the artistry of the choices made and the severity of the choices)

Kris Mar 19 2025 7:43 pm Wowwww! I'm about to be on episode 6 but episode 5 had me Gobsmacked! I love how the family comes together even with tough subjects and hard truths! The love the husband has for the wife is so sweet :') Idk if they have the same2 directors for all the episodes or if one specifically handled episode 5 (especially where it got hot & bl**dy) but absolutely fabulous job to the writer as well. I'm crossing my fingers heavy for a second season, and this is honestly a perfect show for me. I've been watching dramas for a while, and this feeling of shock and amazement is not something I've felt in a while. I'll see how ep 6 ends it off but I've absolutely loved how this show has played out. Also this is just another reason on my never-ending list of why I love Bae Doo-Na!

Nina Feb 13 2025 11:02 am I wany season 2 jeballl

iza Feb 01 2025 1:05 pm Bae Doo-na as never disappoints! Lomon is perfect for this nerdy-toughy character! Well, the whole family blended a C%! I hope a Season 2 is brewing!

fan Feb 01 2025 9:30 am I’m sorry but the pastor was so hot!!!!!

fan Jan 19 2025 12:20 pm I binged the 6 episodes in one evening. The last two were superb. Doona Bae is showing another face here I didn't expect. Excellent acting from everyone, and the wild plot that I very much want to follow in the second season. I hope this drama gets recognition it deserves.

Lidia Jan 18 2025 7:04 am ....love it, i want more

marie Jan 14 2025 1:22 am this kdrama is so good, keeps u hooked til the end. love the bits of funny moments and family themes. perfectly casted and now im on the edge for season 2. love everyone of the actors please release season 2!!

PANDORA Jan 12 2025 9:11 pm I Need Season 2 Expeditiously. Yesterday. Now. Doona is incredible in anything she’s in. The show was funny, and entertaining. 10/10 no notes.

helpjuseyo Jan 06 2025 11:20 am love the trailer, can anyone tell ne where to watch this drama (p.s i can’t see it from coupang TT)

Bea Jan 06 2025 1:12 am Just finished this series and i couldn't contain my happiness and satisfaction. This is by far the best kdrama of 2024, the storyline, plot twist, and characters are all superb!

Highly recommended! Thriller with subtle comedy (i so love the quirkiness) and the story is all about family as the title says. If you are already tired of highly promoted romance dramas that are overrated and cliche, try to cleanse with this fresh and unique concept, you will not feel disappointed. Especially its the iconic doona bae's drama!

Ps. This is a wild and bold drama with gores throughout each episodes so watch at ur own risks. Hihi

uus-zip Jan 03 2025 10:18 pm I thought it will be 10 eps but turn out to be only 6?!?!?! I waited the whole week to think that it will release ep 7 but I just found out it was 6 episodes only?!?!?!

I need season 2 ASAP!!! This amazing show need more episodes I beg please!!!!

Divine Dec 30 2024 5:08 pm From start to finish, this series did not disappoint. I watched it because of the moving director, but stayed for its quirkiness. Also, it was gore but it wasn't irritating(This is coming from someone who hates gore) I loved this drama.

I hope there is season 2

Nan Dec 28 2024 5:20 pm Excellent! I love quirky, violent, gore movies/series. The reason I started watching East Asian cinema.

Carlina Dec 28 2024 1:00 pm I want to watch this series

Bea Dec 28 2024 11:20 am Just started watching this cos romance and romcom series this year that are highly promoted in media ain't interesting for me.

I just finally found a new binge worth series along with "when the phone rings". Hopefully, i enjoy this drama considering its bae doona unnie's project but as the story progresses, i already know i would finish watching it till the end. ^^

Taemi Dec 27 2024 11:55 pm Wow what a wild ride this show was and it was definitely more violent than what I was expecting but so good. I just knew I had to watch this show when I saw Bae Doona, but I wasn’t expecting there to be only 6 episodes though. The only scene that made me uncomfortable was Myung Hwan’s and Gil Ja’s scene at the end of ep 5, I wasn’t ready for that lol

Adeline Dec 27 2024 11:50 pm The best thriller drama in 2024..I love this drama more than squid game 2.. I Hope there is a season 2 asap..✨

Klove Dec 27 2024 11:40 pm I loved this drama! Need season 2 asap!
