An easy watch, despite the misleading English title
First off, the title “Romance in the House” does not serve this drama well at all. The original Korean title translates to “Family X Melodrama”, which describes the show and sets expectations much better.
This drama seems to be a study on family and relationships. Not just immediate family, but also partners, neighbours, and colleagues. There’s also this underlying theme of individuality and independence—you can be part of a couple or a family, enjoy their company and cherish them, but also still enjoy your own company, have your own space, and have your own identity.
I appreciated this drama for its mature take on things, and while it can be slow at times, I enjoyed watching the family and couples come together on their own terms.
