Press Play; The Fun
I think you should go tap the play button and check this out, if you are looking for something entertaining, fun, hilarious and sometimes emotional, something that doesn't go with a rom-com genre or anƴ usual genre. This just feel innovative, I don't remember watching this kind of plot before and that was what made everything more interesting .
I didn't think I would stick through with this while I started and here I am savouring the ending I never really wanted this to come to an end this early. Will miss this a lot, almost every moment was hilarious and fun, but some moments just hits emotional. Can't count the number of times I laughed aloud, had smiles and made empathy with few characters.
First of all, I loved the unique plot: about housing. A man who wants to embezzle 17.8 billion won to save his boss (who was like a father to him) from prison. I don't remember watching a similar Korean genre and that made it hit differently. Finally not a rom-com, supernatural or action, Just something lighthearted, emotional as and thrilling.
I think I love this show a lot more than expected, the fake family that turned it a strong bond that surpasses that of a real family. The way Hae Gang and Tae Man expressed their father and son love, when Tae Man was just someone who helped Hae Gang when he was much younger and raised him into he is today, just feels genuine even with the less backstories given. The chemistry between the leads, that doesn't need to be shouted aloud, from their gaze, care and talks, Love it all.
The show had an interesting villains, that actually suprised me a lot, I thing it's the actor behind the face that perfected the villain. The actor did an amazing job with the portrayal of a villain, that laugh, shout, cry, mockingly pity and all other emotions, was a great depiction, the villain had this perfect portrayal of comedic, yet menacing looks that actually clicks right each time.
Talking about the chemistry he had with he had with the ML Hae Gang, when he just behaved so unserious, the interaction and dialogue they had when Hae Gang found out Lee Chung Won embezzled the money was fun and interesting, them sipping drink from the straw staring at each other was PEAK.
They were characters I became invested in unknowingly, I never expected that I would love Suk Jin, at first I thought of her as a troublemaker and fault finder, but I think it stems from her righteous zeal to help the residents and I warmed up to her without knowing.
I enjoyed the Kang sisters relationship, whatever things that caused conflicts between them was for the other protection. and It was endearing watching them trying to protect each other.
I love, loved the ending I was busy eating everything up Lee Chung Won being arrested and Hae Gang and his team openly exposing his crime, seeing him in that state of true anger was the first time I saw that real pain form the character, and the actor portrayed it so well. I would have loved to see the more story between Ha Jeong and her other pair. Seeing the come together after three years was for the old times and had two new member, even them meeting with the residents again was heartwarming. They must have being thrilled meeting the President LOL Hahaha. Would have loved the story to delve more into things esp at the ending episodes but with the limited twelve episodes the story did a good job.
Overall, I think you should go watch this if you have nothing to watch and you just want something fun entertaining and new. I haven't watched Ji Sung in a show before and I have heard of his wonderful performances, seeing it firsthand is always better, the other cast also did a great job and to our villain an applaud and award.
I think I found this story more engaging than I expected making me stick around till the end which I haven't mostly done 2026, so It's a big win. I enjoyed this family and residents a lot.
Rating 8.5
