I doubt there is any way they're siblings at this point.. episode 10 sealed it for me... I'm glad at least, because the chemistry is too good between them right now to be forced to break up morally like that. But it will still be interesting to see their reaction when they start "thinking" that they're siblings, I surely hope they go through that phase and don't just break the bubble before it's released..
I hate how suddenly everyone had a new start from the husband's family.What changed them? Was the fact that making…
Overall, this drama had way too many unlikable trash characters, there should be a limit to how many antagonists you can have in a single drama. The first half was full of frustration and punishment to the female lead, the second half was silly confrontations, and the end was a pathetic attempt to connect dots that never had a line between them. Also, Comedy??? this barely had any comedy and it was heavily based on corruption and power struggle. I feel like this is the most disappointing factor.
This drama completely failed at connecting the dots at the end, it felt like the scenario was never finished,…
I hate how suddenly everyone had a new start from the husband's family. What changed them? Was the fact that making your own money turned out to be fun? HA. What a joke, only way that can be possible is if they worked at something they had passion with, but they were all doing hard labour.
The husband's change was the most puzzling. He acted so mature toward the child he accidentally made while cheating on the girlfriend that he cheated with for 10 years on the wife that he had a child with. What about your first child? Did you not consider her or the wife at all for 10 whole years while cheating?
Lastly, why did Oh Tae Ri cover up the police accident? He tried to defend her against 2 rapists but got killed in the process, how did that become a blackmail material for the rapists??
This drama completely failed at connecting the dots at the end, it felt like the scenario was never finished, and they had to find some odd reasons to connect the past with the current timeline.
It's frustrating how much he delayed the confession about his illness from the start, and then continued to lie about details till the end.. Even when she kept finding out one thing he hid the next one.
Decent drama overall but not one I'd recommend to watch, the first episode was too rushed too.
Compared to Go Back Couple, this is less likeable because.. [Spoilers about both dramas in 2nd comment]
1- In Go Back Couple the couple actually broke up and divorced before going back in time, in Familiar Wife it feels like the male lead cheated on his wife by being married to a 2nd wife, and his 1st wife cheated unknowingly because she couldn't remember anything from their marriage, but wait, his 2nd wife also cheated on him with that fraud that tried to use her for money.
2- Which brings me to the 2nd difference, in GBC they BOTH knew that they went back in time, and had to work on their misunderstandings together. Instead here, it's just one side that remembers the past and finds out what he didn't know about the other side's struggles.
3- in GBC, what both the leads regret the most was that they had to give up their children, while here the main issue between the couple IS the children, what's the solution? Well, rotating child care between the family members. Suddenly everyone is happy and the burden is gone.
Overall this is a decent 8/10 drama due to the last few episodes, otherwise it doesn't come close to GBC imho.
It's called the bystander effect. Theory is that people are less willing to help a victim if there's more people…
This is so true it's mindblowing, I never knew the effect had a name but it's so accurate. I think people with enough willpower can break the bystander effect on their own though, and everyone should strive to be that person.
One thing I really dislike is the "friend" that only realizes he has to confess after the mc gets interested in another guy. This is literally the worst love triangle plot and nearly every drama uses it. Like jesus you had over a year to sort out your feelings before she met the male MC. Should've either made her yours or remained as a real friend. Telling her about your dates doesn't help your case in any way...
This was a very good show all the way until the ending. It's a HAPPY ending not a GOOD ending. Basically someone pressed the "Make Everyone Happy" button, and rendered all the melodrama and pondering of the main character useless and waste of time. After all the build up, they just pulled the button and pressed it. Disappointed.
I think it's quite enjoyable if you come with little expectations like I did. Do not expect much of the romance tag (1 kiss scene, nearly no skinship), and do not expect closure for every case.
Because this is a show about the characters gaining experience and making progress to be better judges, rather than a show about punishing bad people and putting them in jail. Some will be put in jail but the show will end with some lawsuit(s) halfway done.
I wish I read this review before watching the show. The ending was real shit, with no closure, why bother introducing and building up emotions with the side characters and then ruin them like the druggie. After the ending I felt like every scene with him was a complete waste of time. Not to mention this was very slow paced with a lot of useless silence between scenes..
Unbiased reviews like this should be on the front page instead of the 10/10 trash.

Even if others say it's understandable, It's very annoying and cringy.
To add: I do love this drama but damn she needs to get fixed SOON.

You Drive Me Crazy 4eps 30min each
Both are 2 hours total. Frankly they're better than this one though.
