Title Seo Yeong, My Daughter
I dropped this at ep23. I was bored by the slow, repetitive plot and the uninteresting characters. I'm sort of interested in what happens to Seo-young, but I don't like her character and her acting. I don't understand why she lied in the first place (if she's so proud, she would have told the in-laws the truth about her family and dared them to criticize her for it), and she continues to be deceptive and secretive all the way up to when I quit. And I hate her brother. He's such an asshole to his sister, to Ho-jung, and to Mi-kyung. Actually, the most likeable characters I thought were Ho-jung and the dad. The dad is supposed to be this selfish, irresponsible loser, but in most of the show, he's one of the most hard-working and decent people. You can see he was terrible at the very beginning of the show and in flashbacks, but that seems like a totally different person than the one shown in most of the show. But I had to turn the speed up to 4x when they showed Ho-jung's shrewish mom and lame dad, Sung-jae, the annoying mother-in-law, etc. I was just wasting my time with most of this uninteresting stuff, so I had to quit.
