I heard there's break up in 'Please Be My Family' but it's on the list. Can you please explain if there's actually…
I just added this on the description for the benefit of the viewers who dislike angsts in dramas. There was a conflict between the main couple but it did not end in divorce or a long separation. This is per one of our viewers comments: āThey werenāt broken up. FL asked for a divorce in episode 25 but they reconciled in 27 without processing the divorce. And just a heads up, I was also informed some viewers found this drama angsty, so if you canāt take that kind of conflict, itās probably better to just skip episode 25 and resume at episode 27. š
This 20-minute more or less per episode drama is quite good, not perfect, but the romance between the main couple and secondary couple was beautiful. The main leads are the epitome of what a true, loving couple should be. The story started with the ML and FL already in love with each other and happily married for 3 years. The FL is very gentle, kind, and innocent. ML is the strong, silent type who loves his wife wholeheartedly. Their chemistry together is really very good. Even the backstory of how they met and fell in love was just lovely. One day, the ML discovered that his wife has been hiding a secret from him. She is a Butterfly Slave, and can turn into some sort of creature with red eyes, long nails, has supernatural strength, and can attack anyone, even the ML, when sheās in that state. But the ML will not let his wife go when she tried to leave. I love how the ML loves the FL no matter what she was, trying hard to hide his wifeās true identity from everybody to protect her because her kind were being hunted and killed. Then the FL became pregnant and things became more complicated, but both mother and baby survived because of the MLās sacrifice. But he had to stay away for 3 years (he left around episode 20), which is the estimated time it will take to rid himself fully of the butterfly poison he drew to himself so his wife and child could become normal. Then he returned after 3 years(episode 22, last episode). For those who found the ending confusing, itās a happy ending. In the first few episodes, it was established that the FL can see snippets of future events through her dreams, which always turned into reality. So after the scene with their happy and complete family spending New Yearās together, the next scene went back to the beginning of the drama when the FL woke up looking at her husband after dreaming, which is a similar scene from the very first episode. The FL then smiled, knowing that all those things will happen in their future but she knows everything will be okay in the end. So the ending indicated that it was the beginning of the events that all happened already in the FLās dream, which already gave the audience a peek to their future happy ending. It was also a nice surprise to see the main couple from the other drama āThe Killer Is Also Romanticā make a cameo appearance, along with their child, too. I found it worthwhile to watch this drama.
Sunshine of My Life. Main couple have too many misunderstandings. The SFL, SML, MLās mother, envious friends,…
Lol, I removed it from the list because some parts were so annoying but I guess it still met the no break-up list. Iām just going to put some key description to give others a heads up.
This drama has a 10 minute-length more or less in each episode, with a total of 23 episodes. The FL is a general who married the ML, who she thought was the son of a Minister she had a vendetta with, for revenge against his father. Itās kind of a role reversal, the FL being more dominating and aggressive as opposed the the ML, who appeared sickly and delicate, or so she thought. But in reality, the ML has a hidden agenda of his own, and is actually rather cunning and ruthless. He was very good at pretending to be weak and helpless. Some parts are funny, but the part with the conflict/break up started around episode 17 when the FL discovered the MLās true identity and felt deceived. But ML did some groveling to get the FL to forgive him. They reconciled around episode 20. I guess itās because it has short- length episodes that they donāt have time to drag around the conflict. It has a good ending, too, showing them living happily with their child after a 5-year time skip.
Sunshine of My Life. Main couple have too many misunderstandings. The SFL, SML, MLās mother, envious friends, etc are just plain annoying. Even the FL became annoying as well. The main leads were not together all the time, either, they just dragged out the time spent by the FL in Paris studying. It does get a little bit better from episode 36. There are other dramas out there that are better even with a temporary break up between the main couple.
Hey! What can you tell me about "Sunshine Of My Life"?
Although, itās on the no break up list, youāre probably going to get annoyed and frustrated with the secondary characters here that were causing troubles between the main leadsā¦the SFL, SML, interfering mother of the ML, and others. Now that Iām rewatching this, I decided to remove it from the list. Itās so full of misunderstandings that it doesnāt seem as enjoyable to watch even without any separation or real break up. It only somewhat eased up on the angst and improved from around episode 36.
