I was mesmerized by the performance of the male lead Oh Jeong Se in Its ok to not be ok, where he was a supporting character. So it was with great enthusiasm to watch him as the lead in this drama. His character is such an endearing loser at first but you are quickly drawn into his genuine relationship with his estranged sister and especially his nephew, both of whom he hadn't seen for years. Without spoiling the story, this drama is a mixture of tender moments, laugh out loud comedy and, unfortunately, way too much drama than I think necessary. Be prepared to be frustrated and enraged often. And the ending? It's alright, I guess. If I sound overly critical, it's because I love the characters so much that I wish the script were more focused on their relationships rather than the never ending troubles that continue to befall them. As it is, I still enjoyed the show tremendously and hope we'll be seeing our male lead in other drama again.
