Niina no Papa

I'm personally waiting till the drama is finished airing before watching it, but if it's anything like Wonderful Days, they make you wait a week when a new episode airs, but, you can try http://www.asiatorrents.me/ for the episodes, they might have them earlier than dramania, only thing is you need to download them, but with the subs, the files are so small, it only takes seconds to download them, whereas the actual episode takes sometimes a couple hours to download... Just a suggestion on my part... :)))

So does it have a good or bad ending? Don't wanna watch it if it's got a bad ending... :P

Other than the main lead being super immature and stupid, I thought this was an okay drama, no love triangles or side romances between main leads/2nd leads, was a bit draggy and boring at times, I'm giving it a low 7...

Hehe, saw her in Skip Beat, would never have known she was 31, would have guessed her to be 21-24, looks very VERY young for her age... So good to look young for your age... :)))

Didn't like the betrayal, but in the end, she did the right thing. Could only rate this a 5 for the betrayal on both their parts...

Did anyone notice, both Xi Yue and Qing Zi both wore the same earrings? No change, throughout the whole series, XY wore the exact same star earrings in every single scene, likewise QZ wore the blue balled earrings from beginning to end. Can't say I liked the stupid goof grandmother or the bitch selfish whiny mother.

Doesn't change the fact of me being hugely disappointed in this drama... It was written right, and still, why marry someone when you love someone else, that's just plain stupid, ludicrous, and despicable... The romance, there WAS no building up, all of a sudden he kisses her and they are together, what's up with that? Like I said, this was not well written at all, almost like they needed to rush things along, very amateurish to say the least in my books...

Had she forgiven him this would have gotten a much higher rating in my most humble opinion... That really ruined the ending for me...

I so hate overbearing, controlling, selfish, self-centred, self-serving bitch mother's. This was turning out to be a somewhat good drama up until about the 8th episode where she knows her son has a heart disease but because of her obsession for a gold metal, she pushes him to try out for swimming to get his older brother to come back to compete at the very strong risk of killing him because of his heart disease. Not qualified to be a parent, and to start beating your own daughter up just because she supposedly got a tattoo, wow, yep, she so destroyed this story for me, could only give it a 4...

Hehe, serious is a serious understatement... :)))

Hehe, that is exactly what I saw in Japan, and not just fired, laid off, anything... My ex wanted me to quit teaching at this one school, and really pressured me, even to the point of her calling the school and making things really hard for me, she didn't like the school, felt there wasn't enough um, job security, meanwhile, the school had been around for more than 50yrs, and is still going on strong, English schools all over Japan, anyway, I couldn't find a teaching position at another school, there was a hotel wanting foreign staff, I went for an interview, got hired, and when I told her I'd be working at the hotel instead of teaching, we split up, because to her, I was taking work away from one of her fellow national people. Talk about stupid and selfishness. The hotel wasn't looking for Japanese people for the position I was hired for, he wanted foreign staff, yeah, she was a real selfish, controlling, abusive(physical and verbal) bitch to say the least. Now, not all Japanese are selfish, but from my experience living there for 4yrs, a lot are, you even see it in the drama's... And for them, money means everything, it's a million times more important than family even is, sad to say...

No excuse for infidelity, or for being a bitch to your very own children...

That may be so, I do know the Japanese do feel they are much better and smarter than people in other countries, just not in an arrogant way like the French. I'm French, and have experienced the French's arrogance how many times. Yeah, divorce there, you don't even need to get a lawyer for a divorce, so much cheaper, but so sad to say, so much easier there than here in Canada, or in America. I've been out of Japan now since 2009, was there for 4yrs, and even though I have a little girl there, it doesn't help me to get back there. In fact, it makes it more difficult because the Japanese Immigration, if the mother doesn't want you to even reside in the country, it's next to impossible to get a work visa there, so it is better if I find a Japanese lady and remarry to get back into Japan. Sadly, I'm 49, so chances of that happening as next to nil. Yeah, for the most part, they are a selfish bunch, so when divorce happens, the mother's selfishly keep or try to keep the kids away from their father...

At that time you are right, but had the mother never had the affair to begin with, she would never have even thought to do something like that. And when JY tells HS's father they're having a baby, the way the father's face lit up so proves my point in that, he understood all that was going on, and knew of his wife's infidelity. Just because HS called Mr. Kim, doesn't change the fact her mother's a royal bitch for causing her pain and hurt all the way through till her reunion with JY in the last episode. And to slap her in the kitchen scene in the last episode, I so watching to beat the living daylights out of her, I don't hit women, but she sure made me wanna do it to her, stupid despicable and selfish wench....

I have found when living in Japan, the police generally don't get involved in domestic disputes, and in some cases, yes, they will lie like that just to keep the peace, so they say. The laws in Japan are changing though, now the wife can be charged for doing such things as refusing access to the kids or lying by saying the father is dead or the child is dead, but you know, it is true what the saying goes, What goes around, does indeed come around, sometimes later than we want, but it does happen. You are so right as well, the children are the ones that suffer the most in any divorce, even when they're adults when the divorce happens. Sure some will say it's better if they do divorce than to stay together because of fighting or whatever reason, but that still doesn't stop the hurt that's caused. Yeah, in Japan, they are now realizing that children want to be around both parents, so now the father's now have a fighting right to see their kids, and the courts are now forcing that issue. Too bad they weren't that way if the father is a foreigner, for the most part, foreigner's are still looked down upon sad to say...

Unfortunately that's the way it is in Japan, I'm living proof of that, when the wife remarries, it's like say goodbye to your children almost. My ex-wife, in order for my daughter to accept her new husband as father, told her I died in a car accident. Many women over in Japan do just that, tell their kids their father died so the kids won't ask to see their father. I have a few friends in Japan that I met while living there where the wife asked them to stop seeing the child so they would accept the new husband as their father, and a couple were in the same boat as me where their wives told their kids they had died... Very selfish and very sad indeed... So Fututa's wife in this scenario, that happens in real life...

Exactly, very prejudiced, and the mother, what a piece of work she is, makes HS suffer from childhood right through till HS comes back in the last episode and is reunited with JY. Then she acts all excited when she finds out they're having a baby??? What's with that??? Yep, she's EXTREMELY loathsome all the way to the bank... So sad the writers always have to put evil and nasty parents in to a drama, they know how to knock what could have been a real masterpiece into something that is just good... I have to wonder if the writer here is one of those parents, otherwise, why sort of destroy such an awesome series... What gets me too is the fact that nothing bad happens to the dirty filthy bitches in the end... Left sort of a bitter taste in my mouth this one did on account of the 2 bitches, mother and sister...

So hope to see Jo In Sung and Gong Hyo Jin in up and coming drama's and movies, such awesome chemistry between them, such a real pleasure and enjoyment watching the two of them together... :)))

I super hated and loathed Hae Soo's mother straight to the end, she was a real bitch for being unfaithful to her husband and for causing her daughter's pain all through their lives because of her despicable affair, and for being a real bitch even to the last episode by making HS suffer until Hae Soo was reunited with Jae Yeul... I so hate of writer's put such bitch parents into the story then nothing bad happens to them... I also loathed HS's sister for being prejudiced towards JY because of his illness, other than that, a really super great story, great chemistry between the main leads... I give it an 8.5, would have been a 10 had it not been for the bitch despicable mother and sister....

Yes, I have to agree with you, this, not only for skinship, but all around, is a real diamond in the rough, I'm 3 eps short of finishing it, and after being frustrated with stupid, ludicrous, and despicable main/2nd lead romances, strong love triangles, bitch mothers/mothers-in-law, jackass fathers, etc, it was just really finally nice to sit back and really enjoy watching this drama, a real breath of fresh and relaxing air... :)))
