The drama's episode 2 has released and here's my take on the drama.

It has a promising storyline and hopefully it progresses like this as the story develops. The cast and crew are good especially Kin Ji-Soo. Yet to see Ji Jin-Hee's character development but both of them are good actors regardless.

The negative part of the drama is definitely Son Na-Eun. Honestly that lady can't act and I don't understand how she is being casted. Throughout the two episodes her reaction are literally the same be it when she faints, when she exhausted, when she is overworked, when she cry, when she is angry my god there are no variations at all in terms of her expression of the emotions. She's definitely going to be the negative point of the drama should it has good storyline.

If they focused more on kim jisoo and ji jin-hee, I would have given a higher rating. The supporting characters are all fun to watch as well. But I think we all can agree who the weakest link is here! Too much airtime for the daughter. I had never seen this actress, son na-eun? I was initially shocked at first glance. I know kim jisoo was and still a big name? So they made sure the daughter wouldn't outshine her? Is that the case? Bcus I hate to say this about looks but from the digging I did, this actress did it to herself. The amount of work done to make her look like THIS is bonkers to me. It's very distracting. I do look away and just listen when she's on the screen. And her storyline doesn't help her cause. This could have been a fun caper! Kim jisoo and her neighbors go on a fun adventure to find out what MooJin had been doing for the last 11 years! Ugh what could have been...

Was prepared to give this a higher rating until the very last episode which was blasé; updates and conclusions of ea. Family member was nothing to rave about and disappointing IMO.

My stars go to the following: Favorite Couple: Mi-Rae and Security Guard (CEO's son) Favorite actors: Security Guard, Moo-jin (Mi-Rae's dad), and Mi-Rae.

Best Scene: 2 father's fighting to protect their daughter, son (Mi-Rae's dad &Security Guard's dad the CEO)

Overall was a cute romance with my favorite couple. Story was more about family struggles than romance though as the title might suggest, and the family struggles didn't really interest me that much other than the security guard's career struggle.

Starts off as a murder mystery when the place burns down but later turns into a ridiculous story that didn't seem that humorous to me. The funniest moment IMO was the fight scene between the 2 fathers as it escalates.

The daughter is expressionless, cold, and has no energy in this drama. Mediocre actress. Must be hard for the director to have such a limited actor. If it were a much better actress, this would have been a lot better. She is not suited to be one of the lead roles.

The young couple is boring and dull in acting

The older couple and other experienced actors carry this show. .they shine.

Overall it is a ok show. Family drama. I am not anyone's. Fan. Do not care about these kpop ypung idols. Actually . These young idols do not help this drama. Their acting is below standard level. Hope they cast someone with some acting skill.

After being kicked out of the family for repeatedly losing money, loosing businesses and letting his family down, a divorced father returns to his family after an absence of 11 years. The daughter is deeply resentful and very angry. The son pleased. The mother unsure. The father (ML) is now wealthy and has purchased the Apartment Block where the family live so now he is their new Landlord. He aims to win his wife (and family) back.

The second part is the relationship between his daughter and the young security guard where she works who incidentally is the CEOs son. It's a toss up between the prodigal father and the angry daughter who gets the most air time and attention in this series. Occasionally the daughter was rather tiresome, yet understandable so, with her anger. She has taken over the protector role of the house looking out for her mother and younger neer do well brother. Her fathers' return makes huge changes to her life which her mother eventually acknowledges, recognising that she has to let her daughter be a young woman and not "the man in the house".

This is an interesting and different trope from the usual Kdramas. Yes there are other relationships including the Hair Salon owner and the Tax Accountant. Also the other residents in the other apartments in the Block. Most are middle aged, which is a blessed relief, and different, amongst all the usual hand holding young people. Whats interesting is they all have a past, that they either want to forget and move on from to live better lives. This series tries to show that it is recognised and acknowledged. At 50 yo you think carefully, deeper and acknowledge your own personal errors compared to being 30 yo and still screaming in fury!

The actors are not particularly brilliant or well known, but then again not bad. Only one I recognise is Kim Ji-Soo playing the Security Guard/CEO son and he is (IMO) not a very good actor just eye candy.

Although the Dads neighbours focus on where he got his money from, the writer clearly using this to drive the story along, the final information is a bit of a damp squid when told the truth!

The series end comfortably and quietly, no major melodrama.

I liked it but wouldn't hunt it out to watch again.

Korean audio with English subtitles.

This series looks good with plot but poor direction, dialogues and acting make this series really dull and boring. This series has Female lead which is daughter of Family, she has very limited expressions, maybe two or three, I don't know about this actress but in this series her acting is not good. This series has one main plot and many sub plot but I think director forget about main plot and focusing on many sub plots. In Main plot story has two leads which is daughter (son na-eun) and Father (ji jin-hee) but interaction between them is very limited and in full series they have never sorted out their issues. Father act likes teen and even daughter also not looks like very mature which is claimed in story many times. From Rom-com perspectives no couple has touching chemistry they all looks too dull and comedy is also very lame. I saw ji jin-hee in DP2, his role is very limited there but In limited role he show his capability and how good he can act. I saw kim ji-soo in hwarang and she can act very good too but this is director's fault if he can't use that level of talented actors. Overall If you have 12+ hours to spare please don't waste on this boring series.

The first thing I wanna make clear here is that it's a good drama overall.

The story that envolves a family who seemed lost when the father and ex husband come out of nowhere being the landlord of their building (and rich). The writers should have been praised here by how well they made everything interesting enough to catch our attention and make it humorously at the same time.

While watching it made me think about my relationship with my mother and sometimes I saw myself fully understanding how hard was to Aeyeon to put Mirae back in his role of daughter and not the head family because I saw myself judging my mother for actions that it doesn't need my approval.

There were some scenes that came so cringe that almost made me drop this drama, but I'm glad that I didn't that because it all worked well in the end.

The plot twists, the way they wrapped up every little story made me feel like if they went to 16 episodes, it would turn out good too.

In the end, I really recommend you to give a chance go this kdrama because it'll be a good choice. It's a good drama who have deep questions and a good end.

The main male character is very handsome. I guess this is why it is OK for him to return after being gone along time, In his-previous incarnation. He went through family money and that is why hisWife became frustrated with him and left him, and the family did well without him so when he returns mysteriously rich suddenly with no explanation as to how his turn and finances came about, we are expected to hope for his reunion with his ex, no explanation of how his turn in fate came about however, some innuendo about it being illicit is allowed to Trickle through the drama. Because this basic character paradox is never really answered by episode 10,a lot is expected from the audience in terms of forgiving him, and imagining that he can reconcile with his wife and family. The 10 episodes are in this way a bit of an endurance contest and not satisfying.

The subplot of the daughters romance with the son of her boss also has its issues

The story of the daughter and mother, as they discover the way in which their relationship has been twisted by the trauma they have been through is the highlight of the drama.

The father is very watchable, the other stars Not so much. I wanted to like it, but it feels like it took too long to get to its key character development. I ran out of patience and started speeding through the story, such as I could.

I'm not sure what the story was about even though I watched it all the way to the end. It was so boring that I fell asleep through most of it. It really was a disappointment.
