Warm, positive, functional, educational.. until ep 20. Then characters stop growing and gets boring
The drama setup up to about ep 20 was great, really fun. We got to meet the characters and learn about their faults, strengths, and challenges.THEN .... the plot froze. The characters stopped growing. And the actions shown to fill in the time were just .... without any luster or life. It just went on automatic pilot. There was small character growth in some characters, but the main love stories, taking most screen time, were absolutely BLAND LIFELESS, WITHOUT ANY FEELING OR CHEMISTRY. Esp FL totally ruind it. She was obviously lukewarm cold to ML and honestly they should have not gotten married at the end. The second love story between SR and BS as well. The third love story between CS and MS is soooooo bland and suitable only for feeble seniors, ... "just friends who happened to marry"
and Dancer and Hairdresser love story was .... well... killed by the prejudice of the audience, who was all stuck on serious people in business suits, and also lack of acting ability of the Dancer actor, who can act only scenes of his regular idol life. The Hairdresser actress is great but the script killed her character.
I WATCHED THIS AS A FILLER WHILE I STRETCH, WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN, BUT IT NEVER DID
and the cold FL is the trait of all KBS family dramas i have seen since 2020 except Beauty and Mr Romantic. When I think about it, all KBS family dramas since 2020 when I started watching them have cold and aloof and totally uninterested and selfishly self centered FL actress who could care less for the ML actor. All but Beauty and Mr Romantic, bc FL there has more experience and more expression, she was most complex FL of them all. So, WHY is KBS promoting these frigid egoistical FL actresses? .
===============================
This is what I wrote after ep 24:
A very very nice kdrama. The story is real, the people are real, acting is good, so you get sucked into the story. This is a long drama with many many characters and stories so that is why it is slower and more complex than 16 episodes series.
===> You really get to see the characters struggle and grow
Bc it is a family drama with so many different people, ages, stories, and interactions, it is incredibly interesting. There are 5-7 love stories going on in parallel, plus exes, babies, etc.
You get to see disfunctional relationships versus functional relationships :) Bad communication, no communication, and good communication... different styles...
and self reflection and improvement...
I like the positive vibe of this kdrama
It helps that the main ML and FL are down-to-earth people with common sense and brave enough to speak their mind, take action when necessary, be gentle and respectful about it and communicate well.
It is helpful that FL is not an abused / helpless clutz / loser but a capable and warm, brave woman trying to make her late husband's dreams come true and at the same time save herself from the grief of his death and successfully run her late husband's business. She has goals and she makes it happen. Running that business was healing for her.
This is NOT an "anio!!!!" drama with idiotic (mis)communication, hiding, cheating, and psychotic losers. There are villains and drama queens and questionable women, but this is not a drama with car chases, kidnapping, shootings, hot steam, etc.
This kdrama is about "normal" people with 'normal" range of issues, like .. getting out from under your parent's tight hand, dating your professor, leaving babies behind, trying to destroy competition with bad business moves, selling kids off to marriage, fighting to save a business in debt, falling in love later in life, surviving in the entertainment industry, etc.
How it is solved and resolved is interesting to watch. How different people come together to make a goal happen. How they saved their tiny brewery together.
Some of the best love scenes are between the two people who lost their spouses (ML and FL), you get to see high school love at the age of 50, and it is so cute. If you can watch ep 23 with ML and FL in the hospital, that is one of the most charming things, how an older reserved male opens his heart and turns into a high school boy but even better :) he is calmer and warmer than a young boy, and a lot more considerate and appreciative.
He is THE BEST good boy charmer out there, really. He courts her so well. He is honest, undercover, steady and very clever to always be there and be nice and ENJOY her company but never come onto her, bc she is not ready yet, she recently lost her husband, so he is catching her into his net without she even realizing. He is very very genuine and vulnerable and naive on one hand but on the other hand, a very shrewd adult male who knows where he is going with this. He is careful to protect himself yet advancing very fast to go get her. A great hunter and scout :) He is a very endearing character and that actor portrays him so well.
I and many others wish that it was subbed faster. We have to wait a whole day for eng sub.
The OST music is not really something I would remember :) After I wrote this I was humming the main song "when will I learn life" or whatever that is, and yeah, that is a catchy song and actually can be a very popular song. OK I give 9 on music. THe rest of the music is not really noticeable too much, It gives nice effects with actions and it is rather discrete, whcih I think is APPROPRIATE for this kdrama. So .. absence of flashy music is ok. I do think a little bit more ... well... I dontknow which word to use... zappy? emotional? stronger? passionate? alive? vibrant? music would be good.
Iron Family had such catchy main song but Iron Family kdrama had more comical and drama and thriller elements so that music fit perfectly for it. This drama is more even keel so this mellow music is ok, it FITS.
This kdrama has nice "background" music that matches the acting, but it is nothing special. But yeah that is the feel of this drama, regular life without too much spiking.
There are younger and older people in the drama. There is only one elder and she is a dame LOL There is one baby. There are business people, "idols" :) etc There are cold hearted corporate styles and the immature dancer and everything in between. So I think many people will find someone of their age and their interest in this kdrama and will find it interesting.
I like the filming close up of their faces. There are many comical moments. There are some tough moments, but never disgusting tough, only tough... THere are some sad moments but there is also that feel of overcoming and moving on and being nice about it.
It is like ... put your slippers on, relax, and watch the story
------
******* After ep 25, CHARACTERS STAY THE SAME AND DRAMA TURNS INTO BLAH BORING . ******
Chairman is chasing reluctant Gwang Sook, who politely and coldly treats him as a old geezer sugar daddy she cannot piss off, bc he helps her.... She just has that generic frozen smile on her face.... she likes to spend time alone in the brewery and to act as Mother Theresa .... but ... her romantic interest in DS is about ZERO,
so he keeps dragging her around like a reluctant cow on a leash...
all other couples also stay rather distant and in "friend zone"
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CHEMISTRY ANYWHERE
except between minor characters FL's mom and her lover (older couple dancing tango, eating together, he feeding her, etc)
except literally a few seconds between Kang Su and Bom maybe 2 times
and it is just BORING!!!!!! the characters do not grow AT ALL. They are just frozen in that one moment. There are some events that happen but nothing really moves forward.
By Ep 50 we see maybe 2 minutes of Kwang Soo and Bom in flirting action, and THAT is the only truly romantic scenes, besides a few futile attempts by the Chairman (sitting on the same bench in the hospital, playing the card game in the hospital and touching her bare arm when he wins. That was cute and flirty but she was AS COLD AS ICE).
GWANG SOOK STAYED 100% COLD.
Once or maybe twice she tried kissing him but then he said to stop bc it is too much. An impotent old man, stiff and stuffy, by script.
So ... dead end relationship but they will get married like that.
When ML and FL got married, the FL actress tried to be politically correct and fake chemistry but it was only in nurse capacity, there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ROMANTIC BETWEEN THEM THE ENTIRE TIME, SHE WAS TOTALLY LUKEWARM COLD and it is not just bc of the script, it is felt as a personal barrier that was just unprofessionally not overcome
Seems like the audience is all old and impotent people bc they didnt find anything wrong with the FL never calling ML to ask him how he is doing, to run to greet him, to hug him, to hold his hand, to talk to him, to invite him on dates and doing things together.
I was flabbergasted.
I more or less stopped watching. The drama is RUINED by a script that plays it safe to keep high ratings so characters are just ... bland blah frozen closed characters. NOTHING HAPPENS.
The VERY END SCENE when they all sit around family table and FL and ML hold babies, he leans to kiss her and she just leans back and I think even with her hand tells him to go away. THIS IS FILMED. Look at ep 54 very very very last scene, at the end of their speeches.
For some reason, FL was totally hostile towards the ML, her personal dislike for him was just oozing out and it was just ... UGLY to watch.
Actress who acted Se Ri is awful actress and has not changed her facial expression for 50 episodes, she had 3 facial expressions - cry, look confused and in pain, or rarely smile.
The most masterful actor there was Dog Tak actor, every scene with him was memorable especially the end when he was acting emotional, he is a MASTER ACTOR
Kang Su actor came out as a decent actor. I bet he had no experience when he started and he was just a model. That is my educated guess. But he learned to act and is pretty good at it by now.
ML actor is ok for this one role but he is the same all the time, in this kdrama he was THE SAME acting and character as in Five Enough. THE EXACT same.
Overall, I learned how to ruin a perfectly nice drama.
YOU JUST STOP CHARACTER GROWTH. THAT KILLS ANY DRAMA.
many movies will try to fill the void by action scenes, violence or sex scenes, but that is trashy and without content, western media is famous for this AND THAT IS WHY WE DO NOT WATCH IT. It is contentless. meaningless.
Kdramas are famous because of CREATIVE AND MEANINGFUL CONTENT
And as for KBS family dramas, I started watching them in 2020 and all were extremely trashy boring except Iron Family, which was great until the end when the mama boy stuck to his criminal mommy instead of his love, and now For Eagle Brothers, which was fun in the first 20 episodes out of 54, but then died a premature creative death because NOTHING REALLY HAPPENED, they all just lived without changing too much,
In some ways this drama is about stable and functional people and that is cool but their stable level is just ... mediocre superficial stability, nothing MAJOR changes in them. ML and FL just ... never melted. Well FL never melted and that ruined it.
Chun Soo changed in terms of ditching his old life being a slave to his wife and kid in the US. Mi Soo changed in being less shy and more assertive.
Kang Su changed in terms of being less shy and more outgoing and "normal" civilian. Bom became less shy.
Dancer and Hairdresser changed some too, became more mature.
So yeah there WERE changes and they were subtle and organic changes so it is unfair to say there was no change
but once CS and MS got together, there was NO change, they were like a senior impotent couple or a pair of roommates, we never saw them with any FEELING for each other that was beyond friends
FEMALE LEAD DID NOT CHANGE *** AT ALL ****, SHE STAYED LUKEWARM COLD IN EVERY SINGLE SCENE UNTIL THE VERY VERY END. and ML and FL "romance" took so much time so this was the dominant tone of the series
That actress just botched it. Even if the script made her act coy and reserved, there was NOTHING that indicated that she likes the guy. NOTHING. He was just dragging her around like a reluctant cow on a leash. Her level of enthusiasm for him was ZERO. ZERO. ZERO. that was actually abusive to us the audience. She never even called him to wish him good night.
Also, the second most important love story that took TONS of screen time, Se Ri and Boon Su, DID NOT CHANGE.
THEY ALWAYS LOOKED AWKWARD AND SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL TALKING TO HER PROFESSOR... THERE WAS NOTHING ROMANTIC. He hugged her a few times when she cried and that's it. There was no facial expressions, or holding hands, or anything like that. HE the actor tried to act with his eyes but she the actress was just hostile. Her acting was pathetically inadequate.
So the major love stories with the most screen time were just BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAND ***** without any feeling of enthusism whatsoever , nothing that conveyed "I like you, I want to spend time with you, I am curious about you" ***** AND THAT RUINED THE DRAMA
ML and Boon Su actor tried to save it but it was impossible because their female partners were UNRESPONSIVELY COLD.
the overall feeling is that characters are stuck in an asleep state, not really vibrant or loving, more like ... zombies in rote living
IT IS JUST BORING

Wholesome, Without Nuisance, Love at Second Chances
Personally, I believe that love is only experienced once, and I mean love that is deep, committed, therefore, even in death. I say this to introduce this drama. ML, not because he was looking for it, but it coming naturally and subtly, is just a delightful unfolding story that foremost, makes this drama so favorable to me. A widower, dedicated to visit the columbarium for his wife, with a satisfying successful life while raising his young adult children finds love. While this plot is definitely not new, the way this has panned out is such out standing planning. Scenes are created with care and variety that brings believable moments where leads just naturally develop feelings for one another. Both leads are greatly casted and they are doing such a good job portraying their characters. I’ve always complained that directors can be more creative in staying away from too much recycled tropes we see in just about every romantic dramas. Here, it is done. So far, it’s been such nice blends of humor, seriousness, heart flutter, pieces weaving together to keep those invested in this weekend gem. Yes, it’s a gem.The leads are middle aged. Refreshing. Rarely do we see good made romantic dramas about this group range so this is such a welcomed surprise. The idol range are nice (creating lots of fantasizers) but there are so many viewers in this drama range so this is a great treat.
There are actually many couples in this story and each are just as engaging. I think that each one are given enough time and screen to develop, thus making this a wholesome family show. My bias is the main couple but then, the others just become important too as you start to feel and cheer for them too. The creations of build ups of relationships are nicely done. No nonsense misunderstandings, push and pulls. Instead, the directors presents us these characters whose story can be any of us and their management is straightforward.
Cast are so good. Veteran casts in older leads and up and coming younger ones are doing great. Veterans certainly have cemented their facial expressions to convey appropriate reactions it just amazes me. Ahn Jae Wook is eye candy and Uhm Ji Won is gorgeous and their vulnerable scenes of falling in love are so darn cute.
It might not be for everyone but it can be for anyone. Mind you this review is mid point of this ongoing show, but that’s the flow of it. Will follow with afterthoughts upon conclusion hoping upon hoping it remains good and not fall on kdrama curse of mid point fall apart.
🌟🌟**********************
Completed afterthoughts: 8/24/25 based on some themes
1. Love after widowed: it might not be for everyone but in the chance that it does, this surely would be a wonderful way of happening. Love and care, priority and GS n DS on top of that, laughed and smiled a lot. I liked that.
Remorse: Dok Tak and Miae, definitely committed wrong. Yes only because caught, as well as guilt did they come around. No one should be trodden to death by their mistakes, if they but repent and make restitution. That should be the biggest take of these two characters. Behind every bad person was once a shining pride of someone else. Our society needs to be more tolerant and of grant grace for those who truly makes the complete turnaround.
Child Abandonment: not all unfortunately, but more than enough there’s a story behind an ‘abandonment’. For whatever reason, there’s some worthy of sympathy. Having adopted, I sympathize greatly with the mother of my child as I understood her choice of giving up her child. If ever possible, reunion’s would be great. Se Ri being understanding and left door open for future communications about cute Ha Ni is so ideal. I’d love for my daughter to meet her birth mother someday as we left our country it’s been over thirty years. To have that closure if anything else. It’s humanity.
Big Families: it is definitely not surprising as my culture is very much similar in many ways. Definitely there’s pros and cons. Keys for it to be successful is respect and mutual family closeness. The brothers were that. It helped to accommodate their different dynamics as individual couples. As long as I have a definite space to be on my own (ha, a room), big families can be very helpful.
Overall, I enjoyed this family drama. I’ve watched so many already with absolute nonstop nonsense. This, without those nuances, is uplifting, wholesome, and wonderful. It started well and ended swell. To me that is.

Family Drama with a blend of Sorrow and Laugh
The drama takes a good turn from episode one itself, but then the story starts to get more traumatic as the drama starts to focus on the drama side. The death of Oh Jang Soo is a part of the drama that adds so much to the storyline, but without the character, there is a hollow in the story.Well, it was already clear that Oh Jang Soo would be a short character, but the portrayal has been done in a way that made the character unforgettable. Moreover, Ma Gwang Soo is also a very strong character, and it is what made the drama more interesting and has the hook points.
Uhm Ji Won has portrayed the character of Ma Gwang Soo in a way that I can never imagine someone else playing the same character. She has done the role perfectly and has the features of a strong woman who has a bright character and a lively personality. The story shows how she lost her husband but didn’t give up on solving those problems left behind.
It is a great watch even though there’s so much to show as the drama is still ongoing, but it is honestly going so smoothly. For Eagle Brothers Kdrama is confirmed to have 50 episodes, so we can’t expect the same vibe and energy shown in 16-episode dramas. It is slow going but not boring. There’s a high chance of keeping on getting better in the upcoming episodes.

Juicy gossips dressed up as a show
I must admit I was drawn to this show by the initial premise of a strong FL who overcomes personal tragedy as well as business challenges to make a fresh start for herself and her newfound family. A solid premise if I say so myself.The FL inherited 4 brothers-in-law’s when she married her beau. Potentially, it is a gold mine of subplots and characters. That is certainly true, and, in that regard, Oprah Winfrey would be proud. There are 6 CP's, multiple weddings as well as babies by the end of the show! On the other side of the ledger, there are troublesome ex-wives and a persistent antagonist. They also get the Oprah treatment when it comes to redemption. Everyone wins.
As the show went on for over half a year, I don't think there is much point in going through all the twists and turns. I'll keep things relatively high level.
Let's be honest. This show is a jack-of-all-trades but master of none. It is sort of makjang, part-time rom-com and certainly melodramatic. Many clichés and tropes are hurt in the making of this drama. However, it doesn't push any boundaries. The bubbling cauldron is full of ingredients, but the flavour is muted.
This becomes increasingly evident as the series progresses. I was baffled at first and then I had an epiphany. This is a weekend drama designed to be viewed by a multi-generational audience. There are many situations and themes that a mature audience will be familiar with. This show is safe to share with your grandma. She might tsk-tsk here and there but she is more likely to be wearing a knowing smile.
On top of that, all the CP are pre-ordained. Sure, there are the usual push-pulls. You can put money on the pairings, and no bookmakers will accept the bet. It is that obvious.
This is the same with most of the side plots. They are old tropes. There are the odd angsty bits, but resolution is never far away. Everything just plods along.
What doesn't move along is the progress of the 1OTP. They are forever dancing around each other. Even when they are finally dating, they are still awkward around each other. Jane Austen would call this "having an understanding". In many ways, this show is timelessness.
With so many characters and subplots, there are lots going on, but they are tame. One CP did have a one-night stand, but they are the thorniest pairing. Everyone else is prim and proper.
This raises the fundamental question. Is this show for you?
Do you prefer to be hit by angst bombs? Or would you prefer something mellower? Do you want one or two fiery, passionate love stories or many low-key ones? Final question; cute babies or cute dogs? Answer me! 😉
In the end, this is an easy, undemanding watch. I just don't think I'm their target audience. The sunk-cost fallacy kept me watching but diminishing return is real. In hindsight, I would have preferred to have access to all eps from the start. Having to wait week after week for the next release is definitely a con for me.
The show does deliver on its premise, and the acting is solid. Somewhere along the way, it morphed into something bland and predictable. I don't vibe with it and that is on me.
BTW, The ending is beyond sweet. It is sugar overload and should come with a health warning. At least it left no stone unturned.
My suggestion is read reviews. Sample a few episodes before jumping in for the long haul. Caveat emptor, chingu.

A Hidden Gem Among Long K-dramas
I've been watching mostly long K-dramas, ranging from 50 to over 120 episodes. Some of them started off really strong, but I have to admit that the plot often gets stretched out, which makes it hard to keep going. However, after watching the first few episodes, I felt a rare sense of wholesomeness, something I don’t often experience, especially in longer series. Many long K-dramas tend to go off track, sinking too deeply into heavy drama. While I don’t necessarily dislike that, if it goes too far, it can take away the fun and entertainment that make watching enjoyable. Although I've only watched up to episode 22, it has consistently delivered the same charm and warmth introduced at the start. Beyond the story itself, the characters bring life and energy to every episode, making you want to keep watching, which is a great sign, especially for a drama with a longer run.Was this review helpful to you?
Let’s cut through the BS. The ratings may have crept into the double digits, but that’s only because mediocrity has become the accepted norm. Those who settle for less, who refuse to see beyond the surface, are the ones singing praises—conforming to the lowest common denominator. They cling to the illusion that this series is something special, when in truth, it’s just another mediocre flicker in a sea of forgettable stories.
This could have been a landmark—over 50 episodes of potential brilliance, a series that could have stood out as one of a kind. But instead, it’s fallen into the trap of complacency. The writer lost control early on, biting off more than they could chew, and what was left is a sprawling mess—drama drained of life, characters hollowed out by poor casting and worse execution.
The main leads? They dislike each other, her more than him, and it shows—yet the story drags on, hollow and desperate. The side characters? Dead weight, distractions that only serve to remind us how much this series has squandered its promise. The female lead? A terrible actress, pretending to be something she’s not, completely out of her depth—failing to elevate what should have been a compelling role.
This isn’t some poetic tragedy of love, loss and love again. It’s a reflection of reality—messy, flawed, and painfully mediocre. And the truth is, most viewers don’t want to see it. They prefer to stay comfortable in their ignorance, ignoring the cracks beneath the surface. They settle for what’s easy, what’s familiar, rather than demanding excellence.
No different than the world outside these walls—where mediocrity is applauded, and genuine talent is ignored. The series could have risen above, but it chose to conform, to settle, to accept its mediocrity. And so it remains—a failed opportunity, a cautionary tale of ambition wasted and potential lost.
Time to stop pretending this is anything more than what it is: a mediocre story, propped up by a false veneer of praise, while behind the curtain, the truth is stark and unforgiving.

I love se ri and beom so :(
I’ve never been this emotionally attached to a drama before. Every scene, every line, and every look between them makes my heart race. There’s something about forbidden love that just hits differently especially when it feels so real and raw. I can’t stop thinking about the student and her teacher. The way she looks at him, the honesty in her eyes when she shows her feelings… it’s not just a crush. It’s deep, it’s painful, and it’s beautiful.She doesn’t care about the rules or what people say she just follows her heart. But he’s stuck. I can tell he feels something too. You can see it in the way he looks at her when no one’s watching, in the way he hesitates when she’s near. He wants to say something. He wants to be with her. But he can’t.
Not because he doesn’t love her but because her family hates him. There’s history, pain, and unspoken words between them. And he knows that being with her would only bring her more trouble. So he stays silent, even if it breaks him. He keeps pretending nothing is there, while his heart screams for her.
This drama is not just a story to me it’s an emotional rollercoaster that reminds me how love can be both beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.

Enjoyable, Delightful, Uplifting
For Eagle Brothers is an enjoyable family drama, in fact, it’s delightful. It has been a long time since we have had a weekend Kdrama that was just nice. I think we need more of such shows.The cast is star packed. Apparently, the script is what got Ahn Jae Wook (ML) on board. Jae Wook is a former matinee idol and singer and long established in the theatre. Uhm Ji Won (FL) is a pure delight in this show. Her role is a nice contrast to her other two most recent dramas: When Life Gives You Tangerines and Dear Honrang. Both actors are superb as the OTP.
Although the story works through the ups and downs of each family member and those around them, it has a consistent theme and that is the sun will always come up tomorrow. This is due largely to Ji Won’s character CEO Ma. She is a never ending ray of sunshine, unless you upset her 😂
CEO Ma’s mum is played by another veteran actor Park Joon Geum. In Eagle Brothers, she is annoying at times to her daughter but she has a heart of gold and it makes a welcome change to the overbearing mother in laws she plays from time to time.
Each of the four brothers also go through the trials and tribulations of finding their better halves. The matchups keep the watcher invested. We have the convenience store couple, the financial management couple, the Zumba couple and the navy couple.
I know some were critical of the Zumba couple but honestly they truly do well together.
A special shout-out goes to the financial management couple and the professor’s baby daughter Ha Ni. She is the best baby you will ever see in any show. She will be a star one day.
The main villains are former employees of the Eagle Brewery. They are a husband and wife team that are a bit makjang at times but play their roles so well. Choi Byung Mo Is great in his role as the bad CEO. He deserves an award.
One of the other benefits of Eagle Brothers is showing us how traditional makgeolli is made. We get taken inside the traditional brewery and how it works compared to the machinations of the mainstream Silla Brewery run by Byung Mo’s character.
This show was popular at home. So much so, its 50 episode run was extended by four episodes. For Eagle Brothers will put a smile on your face.

Many 50 episode Kdramas are adding to many cliches.But FOR EAGLE BROTHERS didn't.Each couple slowly falling inlove.The thing I enjoy most in a 50 episode Kdrama is ENTANGLED COUPLES. 😂😂😂 (IYKYK).I am really Sad to say Goodbye to this Kdrama.Was this review helpful to you?

A good "family" Korean sitcom
PLOT: The FL, a forty-something postal worker, marries her lover (who has four adult brothers), the owner of a craft makgeolli brewery. He dies in an accident 10 days after the wedding. After the collapse, the FL decides to take over the brewery (which is heavily in debt). She receives help from the ML, the wealthy owner of a huge hotel and a companiy. Little by little, she discovers the difficulties her brothers-in-law and faces an obsessive competitor.+++ Excellent cast of veteran actors (it's rarely the main cast). The younger actors still have some room for improvement, especially the actress who plays Se Ri :(
+++ Exploration of love and romantic relationships at different stages of life (widowhood, first love, divorce, single parent, etc.)
### It's a Korean sitcom: few sets, following the lives of multiple characters around a family, multiple twists and turns announced quite obviously, numerous episodes, etc.
### Drama made to be watched with your family (weekend series/ very, very prudish tone/no violence/ no harsh themes, etc.)
### NO intimate scenes, only dead fish kisses. I don't know if it's the direcor's intention, but there's absolutely no chemistry inside the couples. Too bad for the credibility of the story!
=> Enjoyable, fast-paced, and entertaining series (but don't expect nothing more).
********************************************
Longue fresque familiale et romantique
PLOT: La FL, quadra postière, se marie avec son lover (pourvu de 4 frères adultes) propriétaire d'1 brasserie artisanale de makgeolli. Il meurt ds 1 accident 10 jours après le mariage. Après effondrement, la FL décide de reprendre la brasserie (très endettée). Elle va être aidée par le ML, riche propriétaire d'un énorme hôtel et d'1 gpe. Elle va découvrir peu à peu les difficultés de ses beaux-frères, et faire face à un concurrent obsessionnel.
+++ Excellent cast d'acteurs vétérans (pr 1 fois). Les plus jeunes ont encore des progrès à faire en particulier l'actrice qui interprète Se Ri :(
+++ Exploration de l'amour et des relations romantiques aux différents étapes de la vie (veuvage, 1er amour, divorce, père célibataire, etc.)
### Sit-com à la coréenne : peu de décors, suivi de la vie des multiples personnages autour d'une famille, multiples rebondissements annoncés de façon assez évidente, nombreux épisodes, etc.
### Drama fait pour être regardé en famille (série de WE, ton très très prude, aucun thème dur, etc.)
### AUCUNE scène d'intimité, dead fish kisses. Je ne sais pas si c'est voulu par le réalisateur, mais il n'y a pas du tout d'alchimie dans les couples. Dommage pour la crédibilité de la story !
=> Série agréable, rythmée et distrayante.

Family Drama that must watch
Honestly , I feel happy after watching this series.I learn a lot from this drama.
Normally , I am not interested on game ( playing game ).
After watching this drama, I want to learn how to play "Go-Stop" game and I am looking it guidelines across Google ,Youtube and Tik Toke .
Then,I learn that love is very simple and it has many good functions from this drama.
And, love essential parts for happiness and team of Eagle Brothers present the best.
The script is great , the editing is excellent, good in team work and all the actors are performed the best.
The whole story is really perfect. Every episodes bring fresh , new , excited .
Really happy for 54 episodes .
Additionally, if you are a fan of Ahn Jae Wook, you must watch this drama.
We can his adult love movement in this drama.
