in progress review
Be clear on your expectations! I'm only halfway through so far, but given some low reviews and the fact that this is exceeding my expectations, I'm weighing in early, with full awareness that there is plenty of time left to disappoint. if you are looking for a taut espionage thriller, the family oriented sitcom elements may not be your cup of tea. For me, the family sitcom elements and the actors' charm and chemistry are the highlight. I love the kid sequenences. The entire family cast is terrific. Jang Na-ra absolutely nails it as the wife, mother, daughter and sister in law, holding the family together. She has totally charmed me in this role, which only gets richer as we progress. For me, the espionage elements are an added bonus, and so far are satisfying. I am so excited to finish this series. My only issue is if I should binge or slow down to make it last! This is so much more enjoyable than Mr. and Mrs. Smith for me. So, manage your expectations. If you like silly family comedies with highly skilled actors, like me but you also enjoy espionage, you might just be delighted! At this point, it's feeling like my final rating will be from 8.5-10, seriously.
