It looks like there's already an answer about ML's grandma, but I hope they also show what really happened to…
Okay sure, let's see what really actually happened with ML's grandma and FL's grandpa. Their disappearance and the way they make their presence felt are still a mystery š¤
Kkkk was way off about the mom being dead š ā¦ maybe she just ran off on her own and the husband got into…
It looks like there's already an answer about ML's grandma, but I hope they also show what really happened to her and the FL's grandpa ā why they both went missing on the exact same day?
I don't care anymore about the defensive people playing victim. They act scared and uncomfortable but they're still here in the comment section š¤¦ And they're even making a dummy accounts. It's kinda crazy! I don't want to ruin my day today because of all the different comments, especially since the next episode is really exciting and interesting. There's even a reveal about Hyeon Bin's grandma in the preview.
It looks like ML's grandma and FL's grandpa didn't actually run away together ā it was just a coincidence that they both went missing back then. I'm interested to find out what really happened to ML's grandma and FL's grandpa. The longer it goes, the more exciting the story gets. That's why I'm getting even more interested in this drama ā the story has parts that are really exciting, it's just like Once Again.
For now, I'm more focused on the runaway grandma and grandpa thing. The love story can wait, since everyone's still relying on the elders. I haven't seen anyone brave enough yet. The only thing that matters is that there's no love triangle or love square getting in the way of the story right now. Which is, at least there's no major troublemaking going on. I'm just waiting for every relationship in love and family to gets fixed at the right time š
There has been a little too much of the same thing coming from people who are not standard bearers of what a healthy…
You're calling the FL's character arrogant, but you ignore the good she's done. At best, that's just ignorant, because you're clearly biased. It's obvious you always put up the ML's aunts and FL's uncles on a pedestal and constantly attack the main characters. You don't want to be called out because criticizing is really your habit. You can say whatever you want, but the way you always attack the main characters makes it pretty obvious. That's why instead of helping, MDL ends up confusing the viewers because sometimes the comments turn into bashing, and it's also very mixed. If the drama was bad, thereād be nothing wrong with telling the truth. But the story of Recipe for Love isnāt bad to the point that you wouldnāt understand or grasp each characterās behavior. Good thing I know some people who liked this drama, and thankfully they donāt know about this site. If they did, their experience watching it might get ruined because of the comments like these. Okay, this is also my last reply to your nonsense comments, since youāre even more frustrating than the actual drama.
There has been a little too much of the same thing coming from people who are not standard bearers of what a healthy…
She may not be perfect in this story because there's a reason why her character is like that, and also because of family influence. But she became forgiving and caring at other times. But just because you dislike how someone looks isn't a basis to say you're not annoyed at an actress. You're just biased, that's why you're criticizing the female lead so harshly. She already did something good, but you became hypocrite in that part. I noticed that once you became biased toward the FL's uncle and ML's auntie, you started looking down on the other characters, especially the leads. There's nothing wrong with saying who your favorites are, but belittling other characters is a different story. You can still share your opinion in a way that's respectful to everyone without putting other characters down. It feels like the FL's uncle and ML's auntie became a bad influence on the commenters here. The comment section wasn't like this before, but because of the FL's uncle and ML's auntie, the whole aura of the comment section became weird. To be honest, even if I feel awkward about the ML's auntie and FL's uncle's relationship, I still respect them as actors and actresses because I also appreciate their effort and the way they care for their co-stars in this drama. That's why I don't put them down as an actors. You can see that I appreciate every actor's performance here.
You say you don't hate the actress, but it's obvious you're just pretending. I'm sure a lot of people will like your comment because there are also many haters on MDL who like that kind of negative and unfair opinion.
A 50 yr old man bullying his younger brother into breaking up with someone ā¦ š so stupid ā¦ at that point…
Maybe they'll just show grandpa in episode 40 since there are still a lot of problems in each family's relationship right now. But let's see when he'll actually appear, because I'm also interested to know what really happened to him and Yang grandma..
My favorite trio Gong Jung Han, Yang Dong Ik and Gong Dae Han, they look so cute while dancing together, I love them so much! ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
Then so many people are also requesting for the Recipe for Love girls to dance too like Recipe for Love beloved trio did. It's nice to see that the real viewers appreciate and are interested in this talented cast. I'm glad to see this kind of positive update šā¤ļø
Though the jagiya couple are struggling in their relationship right now, but I'm still happy that so many viewers sympathize with them and appreciate their great chemistry, good visuals and performance. Even if they don't get back together right awayāsince they're really the original Romeo and Juliet in this drama and it's expected that they'll have it harder than the othersāI believe they'll get back together at the right time. This drama did really justice to Jin Se Yeon and Park Ki Woong's improvement as an actor and actress.
The talent agency of Kim Sun Bin as Gong Woo Jae posted on IG about his cute pictures, holding a bouquet of flowers while promoting to watch Recipe for Love this week š„°š As time goes on, Woo Jae just keeps getting more handsome.
I'm used to this kind of family problem in family dramas. Compared to other family dramas, Recipe for Love is really relatable, so I'll keep supporting this drama until the end. Aside from, really enjoying it. Even though a lot of tropes came in, it still hits the point. The plot's direction is so understandable that I don't care about the dummies anymore. What matters is seeing viewers who truly understand the drama and give fair, unbiased opinions. There's nothing wrong with freedom of speech, but you should also watch what you say. Before you speak, so that you avoid belittle or hurt the feelings of the actors who are working hard just to make this drama come together properly. I'm not expecting many people to like my comment, since there are really a lot of haters and biased on this site, but at least I said what needed to be said this time, because there are already so many unfair negative comments here that the actors don't deserve that, since they're all talented and putting in effort in their work.
Fortunately, Iām not picking sides among these cast membersāI love them all. Iām grateful that all of them were chosen for this drama because this drama really feels like it was made for them. Whatever personality the writer gave them, they all nailed it and made their acting feel so real. Theyāre all great. Out of all the KBS family dramas Once Again and Recipe for Love gave me a realization to watch a long family drama again, even though Iāve been in a slump with these kinds of long dramas for a while, so I hope Recipe for Love family still get an award for their effort and for their excellent performances in this drama ššš
Btw...Have you watched a family drama with 50 episodes?
It depends on the plot but yeah, most of the time other family dramas have messy storylines. But Seyeon's new family drama, even with its flaws, feels realistic when it comes to the different behavior in each family. This story also shows both the weaknesses and strengths of each character, and it's pretty heartwarming too, so I'm really enjoying her new family drama right now.
rewatched this again as it's a classic kdrama and the messy plot was actually fun to watchi don't understand why…
You got the point. Thanks for the clear explanation. To be honest, some MDL commenters are biased, which is why they're all in for the male lead and 2nd FL even though the 2nd FL's character isn't really that perfect either.
This is one stupid mess.... married couple cheating should never be normalized... That's just me. This one is…
I get it if this drama isn't for you ā after all, we don't all have the same preferences. Honestly, not a big fan of cheating trope either, especially with the swapped spouses angle, from ML's auntie and FL's uncle. I don't get why the others are so into this? though honestly their part is kinda awkward..
That said, the drama doesn't just focus on that. I end up paying more attention to the other scenes that matter more, instead of that one part. This drama feels pretty realistic in some ways, and some of the other scenes actually happen in real life too. That's why it still has a good and exciting story that is more reasonable..
This drama isnāt over yet but some people here are always judging each character in this drama, especially Inspector Megret who still have guts to post here š¤¦š«¤ And they always keep hyping up ML's aunt and FL's uncle, which makes it come off as biased..
Right now, each character might seem a bit weak because of the complicated situation and their behavior, but letās look at the whole story first before we say just anything about the characters. Who knows, even ML's aunt and FL's uncle might have their own moments of weakness too. Because theyāre also a bit cowardly when it comes to telling their family the truth about their relationship.
We donāt know the full story yet. Plus, a lot is still going to happen. Not all their problems and complicated situation will be resolved right away this timeāthey still have challenges ahead to go through. Remember, this is a family drama with long episodes. If you think about it, there are actually more annoying characters in other family dramas compared to this one. At least here, every behavior is grounded in real life.
What really matters here is that things donāt get too heavy, and there are still happy parts, so the story is still picking up.
At least this drama isnāt as heavy as some of the family dramas weāve had before. Plus, this story is actually based on the real, varied personalities of family. And compared to other dramas, at least this one is somewhat realistic.
Sometimes I notice that the comments here are even worse than the actual drama, which is still good up to now.
After watching family dramas for so long aside from Once Again, honestly I really feel the presence of this family drama more, because aside from the story being super relatable and having heartwarming parts, the cast also has great chemistry and theyāre all amazing at portraying their characters. And there are still interesting parts in this drama that hasn't been revealed yet, so the story still has that excitement! š„°
Maybe the leads just had a weak moment this time because they're still young in the relationship and they have careers and family they're taking care of. There are also relationships go through situations like this, so I can also relate to what they're going through. It's unrealistic for a person to have no weaknesses. In truth, everyone has their own weaknesses too when they go through on really tough problems and trials.
And for those saying they had no love chemistry since day 1āhonestly, they do have chemistry. That's why they received many positive feedback and people got swooned over their chemistry, because they really suit each other. And don't forget, Hyeon Bin is also a green flag and Ju A and him were being honest to each other, which is why their relationship back then was also good. It just happened that they weakened at this moment because of pressure from work and family. Anyone would also weaken in a situation like that.
As for the uncle and auntie, honestly a swapping spouses relationship is kinda awkward. It's just that it feels like something's off..
And honestly, even the FL's uncle and ML's auntie had also weak moments on their dating back then. And even them they hide their relationship from their family for a long time either because they were also scared of what could happen. So there's also some cowardice on their part because they were embarrassed about the situation. If Jung Han hadn't caught them, they would've kept hiding their relationship, which is why I'm not that impressed with their relationship either. It just happened that they became strong because the uncle knew his ex-wife, got fooled him again by a fake pregnancy, so they found a way around it. Even them if they are in the leads' situation and they're still new in the relationship, when a big problem comes, they will also weaken. If theyāre standing firm in their relationship now, itās because they already have experience and have been married before. Not because they're always strong.
To be honest, I do like Ju A's uncle, but I just wish he ended up with someone else instead of the swapped couple situation that happened. And his new gf got close to the ML's family.
The leads may have weakened right now because of the intense problems, but before we judge them, letās first look at what the whole story is from their side. The story isnāt finished yet, and there are still a lot of things that will happen in the remaining episodes.
This is really how real life is, some people weaken, and some people are strong-willed. People have their own personalities, so weāre not all the same in terms of attitude. The writer is showing that people differ when it comes to beliefs and behavior, which is true. That's why the male lead has moments of weakness because he faced his parents' separation and his family's problems early on and at a young age. So every moment of weakness has a real reason that we should also understand.
If you weren't biased, you'd understand both the weaknesses and strengths of each character in this drama without judging them right away. At least you get why their decisions and behavior turned out that way.
That's why I'm thankful Jin Se Yeon and Park Ki Woong ended up in this project now, because this kind of situation and story is relatable.
On the bright note, it's nice see that many of Jin Se Yeon's former co stars are full support for her drama right now, and there are viewers and fans who appreciate her great performance. They're also continuing to watch closely and support Recipe for Love. I'm also happy about Jin Se Yeon and Park Ki Woong's return, because there's a lot of positive feedback for their comeback drama this is really a pleasurable moment.
I like the happy scene part with Gong Family it's touching to see their scene. This is one of the best scenes I've seen in this episode š„°
Although in episodes 31-32 had ups and downs due to the problem and trials of the situations but there's still happy moments so it's not totally heavy for these episodes.
Even though the main couple broke up, I don't think they're boring. In the previous episodes, their relationship was good. It just so happened that the problems in their relationship started, so they ended up in conflict situation. But the good chemistry between the two of them is still there. Even from the start, this breakup between the leads was expected, because no relationship is perfect especially when their families donāt get along well. Thatās why the plot is set up like Romeo and Juliet since theyāre really going to struggle with their situation. Also, the plot makes it clear that theyāll have a hard time with the elders because of the ongoing feud between their families. It's not just in Korea, I've got people I know who are in the same situation with Ju A and Hyeonbin when it comes to relationships, so I can relate to the story of this drama because this also happens even in real life.
About Woo Jae and Eunbin, I understand why theyāre not focusing on the love story, since theyāre still young for a situation like this, so far they need to focus on more important things first. If they're really meant for each other, their relationship will come around at the right time. But for now, it's still too early for that.
Also, just because the uncle and auntie fought for their relationship back then doesn't mean they didn't go through hardship from their family either. They struggled too, just like the leads.
It's also very clear in the plot that this drama is about the feud between families. So as long as they don't find out the truth about what happened to their grandparents/parents/spouses the conflict between the Gong and Yang families will keep going. You can expect this kind of situation to come up again and again.
This drama is only halfway through, so it's natural for each family and relationship to run into problems. It wouldn't be realistic if there weren't any issues and challenges for the families and couples. Even in real life, families and couples don't always have it easy they have problems and trials too. Honestly, some family dramas are even worse. Some get frustrating before they even hit the halfway mark. At least with this drama, even when problems come up, there's still a happy part included in the story.
Also, not all families act the same some are good, some arenāt. Thatās why this drama is so relatable, because families with attitudes like this really exist.
There's a saying that life isn't always a rainbow, it also comes with trials and problems, and this is really the reality of life, that the drama also wants to convey.
I love the drama Once Again, but I can relate more to the story of Recipe for Love, so no matter what happens in the story ahead, even if every character goes through problems, Iāll keep watching it until the end. Itās not just that I can relate to this drama, Iām also impressed by the actors and actresses who play the roles well.
There are still a lot of episodes left, so itās natural that more trials and problems will come up in the upcoming episodes. But in the end, everything gets sorted out and falls into place. Thatās why I wonāt give up on this drama, no matter what happens.
It looks like ML's grandma and FL's grandpa didn't actually run away together ā it was just a coincidence that they both went missing back then. I'm interested to find out what really happened to ML's grandma and FL's grandpa. The longer it goes, the more exciting the story gets. That's why I'm getting even more interested in this drama ā the story has parts that are really exciting, it's just like Once Again.
For now, I'm more focused on the runaway grandma and grandpa thing. The love story can wait, since everyone's still relying on the elders. I haven't seen anyone brave enough yet.

The next episode looks heartbreaking, but there's already a reveal about ML's grandma. It's only Monday ā please make it Saturday-Sunday already!
You say you don't hate the actress, but it's obvious you're just pretending. I'm sure a lot of people will like your comment because there are also many haters on MDL who like that kind of negative and unfair opinion.

They're also continuing to watch closely and support Recipe for Love. I'm also happy about Jin Se Yeon and Park Ki Woong's return, because there's a lot of positive feedback for their comeback drama this is really a pleasurable moment.
I like the happy scene part with Gong Family it's touching to see their scene. This is one of the best scenes I've seen in this episode š„°
Although in episodes 31-32 had ups and downs due to the problem and trials of the situations but there's still happy moments so it's not totally heavy for these episodes.
Even though the main couple broke up, I don't think they're boring. In the previous episodes, their relationship was good.

About Woo Jae and Eunbin, I understand why theyāre not focusing on the love story, since theyāre still young for a situation like this, so far they need to focus on more important things first. If they're really meant for each other, their relationship will come around at the right time. But for now, it's still too early for that.
