Great, enjoyable story about mature couple and father - daughter relationship
I was in the mood for Sa Gang Yun's dramas so I checked his playlist and found this drama. Another unplanned pregnancy drama starring Sa Gang Yun - ehem what does that say about him hahaha anyway I enjoyed this drama a lot.
What I liked:
1. FL characterisation - Her character was going through a difficult time when husband dumped her for another woman. However I saw this as her new lease of life as she was given opportunity to become a better version of herself. There was some much kindness and warmth in her character. Dai Dai was brilliant in this role.
2. Father - daughter relationship - ML's daughter the second female lead (SFL) is an adult so it was wonderful to watch interactions and banters between her and ML. The teasing was adorable and funny.
3. Romance - It was sweet romance. ML was clearly smitten by FL at their blind date. I wish there were kisses and spicy scenes because this mature couple was beautiful.
4. Supporting character - I loved that SFL was given an arc. I could feel the conflict she faced in the third act.
5. Antagonist - There are 2 types of antagonists in this drama: (i) FL's ex husband & mistress, and (ii) ML's ex wife. I enjoyed ML's ex wife plot device much more because it gave a higher impact to the drama. ML's ex wife is an antagonist I love to hate.
What I disliked:
1. Bullying - FL's ex husband got married to his mistress (FL's former friend) and I hated every single moment of it. Why did FL do the job? I also didn't understand why ML was held back by another man and made weak when in reality Sa Gang Yun was more menacing that that guy? I was mentally exhausted when FL's mother jumped into the bullying bandwagon.
2. Antagonist - The mistress were despicable and intrusive. FL's ex husband was a wimp.
Favourite scene
The jewelry design competition participated by SFL
