We're finally getting romance! Drunk Tae Ho is funny hahah. That scene in the taxi was actually cute and just thinking about how he has no one to lean on (metaphorically and literally) makes it all the more bittersweet. My ship, Hyo Joon & Mi Rim is slowly leaving the dock. We have a long way to go though. Hyo Joon realizes that words have meaning and may hurt someone deeply. I love how Mi Rim is always saying the right words! He's going to be influenced by her words at some point and I can't wait to see it. The ep 12 preview!! Man, how much more will Tae Ho suffer from his family? I wish he could just leave them all. The news lady is so obsessive, I don't like her. Same goes for Tae Min. The worst kind of second leads are the ones that refuse to hear how the fl truly feels and they just keep pursuing her while getting mad at her for being with the ml. Hyo Shim clearly told him that he makes her uncomfortable but he doesn't care. Yikes!
This drama was losing me with its problematic themes last week (sadly they haven't gone away) but I'm still here for the leads! <3 Also, ep 7 was more enjoyable. Pfft that party, this family is all over the place. I died with Bong Go and Nam In texting (a.k.a. badmouthing Geum Joo) at the table hahaha Speaking of Bong Go, he IS the better parent here because he truly cares and checks on both of his children. Geum Joo's neglect of Nam In is actually really sad to watch. I hope they address it seriously at one point and she apologize to him. Even with Nam Soon, I feel like she sees her more as her daughter who carries out her genetic super strength and less as a person. I get that she feels like it's their duty to save those in need but she's SO obsessed with it that she looses the bigger picture. Anyways, I probably mustn't think too much when I'm watching this drama but Geum Joo really frustrates me. The second lead gives me the creeps and I hate him. I already know he's going to try to harm my ship! Protect Nam Soon and Hee Shik AT ALL COSTS!!
Am I the only one more excited about the side couples than the main couple?
I also thought I was the only one! Their characters and their stories sound so interesting and cute, especially after reading the character descriptions (putting the link here if you want to read: https://program.kbs.co.kr/2tv/drama/thematchmakers/pc/detail.html?smenu=e126f2 it's in korean, you can just copy & paste on google translate or papago). It's a pity that they're only promoting the main couple so far (for obvious reasons I guess). We're going to have to wait until Monday to see the side characters.
Ep 8: I didn't expect Tae Min's villain arc to start this soon but here we go. Pfft he's so in his own world, I got second hand embarrassment during his outing with Hyo Shim. Mi Rim can see right through Hyo Joon so easily. I was also wondering if Hyo Joon truly wants to become a lawyer or he's just doing it for the prestige that comes with it. It looks like it's the latter. Seeing him sitting in that room contemplating his life choices made me feel bad for him. It must be exhausting trying the same thing over and over again only to fail at succeeding it one more time. Anyways, I need more of theem! I love how you can see why the characters act the way they do. This drama makes me realize how truly badly written some other family dramas were *cough*Apple of my eye*cough.
This is better written than the whole of TRHC and that drama somehow even achieved 20%+. Hopefully this drama…
I think more people were interested in TRHC because of the fake marriage & single parent trope hence there was more buzz around it. It was also advertised as a rom com and that genre attracts more viewers than a more melodramatic one. I hope this one gets more love too, it deserves it. I love the writing of the characters so far, you can really feel that they are written by a veteran writer.
Tae min is getting shadier and shadier as the episodes go. I feel bad for Tae Ho : ( He has no one to talk to. I guess he's similar with Hyo Shim in that regard. I hope we see more interactions of them. I don't like that we're ending with what would be Saturday's episode. We were getting some background story but it's been cut in half now. Ep 8 looks good! I'm predicting divorce for Hyo Seong and his wife. Maybe not permanent but there needs to be something big to make her realize her ways and I can't think of anything else lol. Mi Rim is probably going to help Hyo Jun with his exams. I'm pissed that we didn't get an interaction between them this week. We better get more of them in the next eps!
Ep 6 thoughts: The episode felt kinda slow to me but maybe it feels this way because of the many cancellations. Uee at her expertise again which is making us all cryyy. Hyo Shim is slowly reaching her breaking point. She's such a good person, it hurts to see her like this, her happiness is all that matters to me rn, I don't really care for the love triangle. I feel like I'm going to like Tae Ho more when the "enemies" part of the trope is over. I think I read somewhere before the drama started airing that he's going to help her break free from her family so that will be sweet. I really hope they don't make Tae Min really evil later. I'm counting on the news reporter lady to help him forget about Hyo Shim. I love that Tae Ho's grandma is Hyo Shim's supporter now! There's finally someone on her side!
The family reunion was sweet! The villain creeps me out a lot, it seems like he will develop an obsession with Nam Soon. Even if he wasn't evil, there is no second lead syndrome here for me ofc when there's a sweet and kind guy like Hee Shik as the ml. Seriously, I haven't been this excited about a couple in a mini drama for quite a while! They are just so cute!!
Aww so Nam Soon and Hee Sik are going to be working partners now. I really love how their relationship progresses. They're both very kind and their interactions are so sweet. <3
You know you have loved a drama when you keep checking anxiously how much time you have left with the characters in the last episode. This drama made me smile in every episode, no matter the mood I was in. I loved the characters, especially the Chun family. The bond that they shared was so heartwarming and at the same time realistic. All the love lines were so cute and hilarious at times.The ending fits each character really well. I appreciate that the writer didn't force anything and considered the characters' journey and growth instead. All things ended on a hopeful note! <3 I'm going to miss the characters sm, especially my adorable OTP, Pei Lan and Bu Ping. I really hope they make a 2nd season!!
There are a lot of repeats of storylines gone bad in the original dramas in this one. Hopefully they will get…
Yeah idk why it's so hard to write a decent single parent love line in weekenders/dailys. I hope we see a good one in this drama or at least on another one soon!
Ep 13: Another single dad waiting for his wife who clearly abandoned him with a child? lol Alexa play Deja Vu by Olivia Rodrigo. I'm not fan of pairing him up with FL's sister cause both of their characters seem kinda flat atm and I feel like they'd be a boring couple but maybe they're going to prove me wrong who knows. I liked seeing the fl so determined in this episode, more of that please!
I liked the first two eps! It feels like watching a cartoon but in a good way. I may find some moments a bit too silly but the leads are worth staying for. The fl is like a disney princess with super powers, love her! I love how the ml is a police officer and she'll be the one protecting him haha, he's goofy too. They are so adorable together, their interactions made me smile. He's already down bad for her, as expected from the writer who created Ahn Min Hyuk lol.
I just love how this drama knows how to be hilarious but also serious and heartwarming. Such an underrated gem!! What do you mean we only have 4 episodes left??? I can't let these characters goo
As someone who likes Byeon Woo Seok, I have no problem hating his character lol he is a psychopath.
My ship, Hyo Joon & Mi Rim is slowly leaving the dock. We have a long way to go though. Hyo Joon realizes that words have meaning and may hurt someone deeply. I love how Mi Rim is always saying the right words! He's going to be influenced by her words at some point and I can't wait to see it.
