I really don't get Jae Suk's reaction to Mo Eum wanting to date Dan Ho. I know single parents are kind of looked…
it's not about single parent, it's about raising another person's child instead of her own child.
when mo-eum's mom said she wanted to have a granddaughter like yeondu, she wanted mo-eum to get married and have children of her own, not referring to yeondu to be her granddaughter.
i guess that's what she meant. but yeah i agree that mo-eum's mom's reaction is a bit too harsh and unrealistic.
So, Yeon-du is not Dan-ho's daughter. She is Dan-ho's niece.
Yeon-du's mom and dad, as well as her grandmother and grandfather, have passed away due to an accident. I feel sad and sorry for Yeon-du, I can't imagine losing both parents at such a young age.
And poor Dan-ho, having to lose his parents, brother and sister-in-law, and have to take care of Yeon-du who has lost everything.
I have completed watching the whole drama. The last episode was boring with a lot of fillers. The story is quite simple and should have been completed in 6-8 episodes.
The ML's brother (Si Won) is hands-down the best character in the drama. A very good elder brother to the ML who supports him no matter what. And his realisation of his love for his arranged wife (Mi-jin) is so cute and funny, I love seeing them on screen compared to the main couple, sorry, lol.
A decent drama, but might be boring to watch for some.
grands-parents house is set to be outside of tokyo (quite far in the countryside somewhere in kanto), he considered…
Yes, I understand that it was implied that Umi's grandparents' house (as well as Umi's old school, Mizuki's old apartment and the library where Tsuno works) is quite far from Natsu's apartment, Umi's new school and Natsu's workplace.
But yet Umi could still manage to go from Natsu's apartment to the library where Tsuno works on her own. So the commute time should not be that bad. The best solution is for Natsu to move in to Umi's grandparents house so all 3 of them (Umi's father, grandmother, grandfather) can take care of Umi together.
Thanks for your recommendation on "Old Enough", will check it out soon!
I have completed watching the series. It's a good story with an amazing cast. Great acting performance from everyone, including Rana who portrays Umi.
The ending left a lot to be desired though, for example, the break-up of Natsu and Yayoi is really unexpected and I was hoping they could get back again together at the end, but that was not the case. It's quite absurd for Natsu to force Umi to live with him all by themselves (only the two of them) while he could opt of staying with his parents or Umi's grandparents so they can take care of Umi while he's at work.
I don't see a reason why he can't tell her the truth, even if she's a kid. Otherwise the question will still linger her: "Why you weren't here when my mom was still here?".
She would end up keeping on blaming her father for his absence during the first 7 years of her life.
I am at the end of episode 11 now. When Umi asked Natsu why he wasn't there when her mom was still around, why didn't he just explain to her that he didn't know she existed because her mom hid her from him?
I am on episode 11 now. I don't understand why Natsu didn't decide to move in to either Umi's grandparents house or his parents' house. So that he can have the grandparents (either Mizuki's parents or Natsu's parents) taking care of Umi while Natsu is at work. I don't think long commute should be considered as a valid reason.
I am not sure about Japan, but here in Singapore, a little girl as young as Umi (7 years old?) has not yet reached the age to be allowed to go back home from school by herself, and to stay at home by herself. Usually we only allow that when the child has reach at least 9 or 10 (primary 3 or 4), at least.
It's just a matter of how good the parents raised the child.
Even the Yeon-du's character is not 100% perfect. Nobody is perfect, but good children like Yeon-du exist in real life.

So sad.

Overall, very good drama. Highly recommended.

OMG, my blood is boiling. Natsu is too kind.
