It's Your Choice to Abort or to Keep Watching It
At last, I've finally completed this drama.
If I will rate it as a whole, it's an average drama in my opinion. Not interesting enough to start or to finish, unless you choose to give it a chance. But to be fair, there were some scenes that fit my taste and some support characters that I found likeable. If you're a curious one and are willing to find out, feel free to watch it without much expectations.
• I'd like to repeat the above warning, if you don't want SPOILERS, PLEASE DO NOT READ BEYOND THIS LINE •
When I first read the news about this movie, having Im Soo Hyang as the lead was somewhat a surprise for me; I expected someone younger. But then considering Korean culture, I guess hers is the age acceptable to talk about such issues as Woo Ri's.
As I've mentioned in some comments, I rooted for Kang Jae at the beginning but towards the middle, I hesitated because situations were pointing away from him. I actually thought Woo Ri won't end up getting married, but that would seem the most predictable out of all possible endings. I'll talk more about this later.
Themes of certain scenes were to my taste, like how Woo Ri's family's Catholic faith was expressed so perfectly imperfect, it was relatable. I also liked how they showed Woo Ri's dad making such effort to become part of the family, without having to force his way in. I liked how the hunt for Chairman Kim ended in an unpredictable way but a hidden daughter suddenly showing up was not exactly a good idea. But it somehow worked. Ma Ri / Mal Ja's character development is also something I liked. It's just sad she didn't have a happy ending.
I felt happy that Kang Jae was Woo Ri's endgame. While I'll be happy just the same if she decided not to marry, I'm glad both Woo Ri and Kang Jae's sacrifices from the beginning paid off. Raphael gets to be a dad so it's still a happy ending for him. Other matters were wrapped up nicely except for the "bed scene". Haha.
Anyway, just watch it once you make your choice to give it a chance. It won't be a waste with all the great actors in it, anyway.
