Yes, I did enjoy it, but the cringe factor was more than in other family dramas. I preferred “Five Children” (now “Five Enough” on Viki) and Once Again.
In “Father is Strange” I intensely disliked the younger “romantic couple”. I thought there was no way this guy could fall in love with that ridiculous creature. I don’t know why they wrote that role in such a way. Poor actress! As if they purposefully wanted to show her ugly, badly dressed, super-clumsy and boring. Why? I liked the character of the gorgeous’ lawyer, she was a smart woman, although also tied by tradition (what’s with asking her father’s approval to move to her own apartment, and having to lie about her living with a man? Is that standard in today’s urban Korean professionals?), but her husband irked me with his ajumma perm, it looked pathetic on a mature gentleman.
If we’re talking about family dramas, I enjoyed A LOT “All about my mom” The romantic couple was quite boring but the main actress was phenomenal and the secondary, young couple, lots of fun.

Yes, that’s exactly the drama I mean. Actually there is an interesting story behind it, I think… well, now I’m on episode 21 and let’s see what else happens 
ok maybe I didn’t give it a chance, so I plan to re-watch Martial universe, see what I missed
@sophie2you…Anyone else watching Little Women?
It’s such a painful drama to watch that I had to put it on hold for a while. I have never hated a role (mom) so much like I hate that woman/character.
Not going to say the place I saw this but these are awesome movies I saw recently.
- Better than Us
- Crazy Romance
-#1 for me ASHFALL (Nk and SK conflict) - Start Up (not the one with Suzy) 2019 Dong Seok Ma/ Jung Min Park
-Love Fiction (2012) - Love Again (2018)
- The Warrior’s Way
- RESTAR THE EART— Great Chinese movie
- NINJA —from Japan/USA
-The Swords Man- (2020) based on true historical events with Jang Hyuk. - A GIFT WRAPPED CHRISTMAS- would love to see a SK version of this movie with Suzy and LJG ( the singer/actor from Vagabond)
- Little Woman ( on hold)
- Once upon a small Town- Park Soo Yeong/Choo Young Woo/Baek Sung Chul.
- The Glamorous Imperial Concubine.
Spoiler or misinformation from the synopsis, they didn’t live in an apartment but with his parents, to save up money for their own house.
Anyway this is my kind of drama a touch of real life, a bit of an ideal world with a slight piece of drama. 10 episodes à 45 minutes, at first you might think because of the synopsis that the couple Daiki and Nana would be too buzy spying on their neighbors and therefore wouldn’t have enough time to have a baby. That’s far from the truth though, even if the people leaving around them become more and more a part of their daily life, the main topic about this drama is about parents and kids. What one goes through for the sake of their kids? Or what kids do in order to make their parents happy? It doesn’t stop with minors, it’s also about the relationship of adult kids and their parents. And why to have children anyway? And what length you will take in order to have one …
In the mix there is a gay couple as well, and how they deal with the topic of their parents, or maybe become parents in the future.
So there is a lot going on for 7,5 hours.
Did you see this article? I don’t agree with the ‘plagiarized poster’
Have you watched Never Twice? What do you think of that? It’s still my favorite family drama
I completely lost interest in Little Women after I found out it wasn’t based on the original Little Women novel
Scusate… sono nuova e vorrei capire, ho visto il primo episodio perchè è gratis non ho il Viki pass, dopo quanto tempo si sbloccano quelli Standard?
vivi & angel light, I agree, and about plagerism? that didn’t look “exactly” alike either, I didn’t realize it wasn’t based on the original. interesting.

ho visto il primo episodio perchè è gratis non ho il Viki pass, dopo quanto tempo si sbloccano quelli Standard?
Sorry…I don’t know the answer to that. But as far as I know when a drama requires viki pass, unless you have a viki pass, you won’t be able to watch it at all (I could be wrong). Hope someone can give you a better answer.
Mai. Certi drama hanno gratis i primi due, altri i primi tre, poi… basta
From the NF website: “Three sisters, who only have each other and never enough money, get entangled in a conspiracy involving the rich and powerful.”
From Wikipedia: “Set in the modern day, it is loosely based on the 1868 novel of the same name by Louisa May Alcott.”
Murder, mayhem, mystery…I thought it was good. I don’t remember such nefarious activities in the most recent adaptation (2019/2020) of the Louisa May Alcott classic which starred Saoirse Ronan. Also, if you are looking for romance, the NF version doesn’t have much. I semi-binged the NF version since I do like Kim Go-eun.
We live in a very litigious world where the masses are extremely sensitive. I do understand the plagiarism aspect of this though. While working on my Master’s degree, I had to submit several papers throughout the program. I knew it was overkill but I got to the point where I was citing more than I would have needed to. During that time period, I became a bit paranoid. LOL.
What I learned from my graduate classes period is that a concept doesn’t HAVE to be EXACTLY ALIKE to be considered plagiarized; if you use the original idea gathered from someone else, even though modified (like rewording it), it is still plagiarism. It must be YOUR ORIGINAL idea. Does that make sense?
Well, the thing is that when I was a teenager (I’m in my 60’s) I read a romantic story, and I distinctively remember the cover of the book, and seeing the girl and guy of this love story walking and you would see their shadow in the floor too. The only difference; their shadow were as when they were children, and they were two walking adults. I don’t remember why they used that image, but one thing I know and that is, this image/ goes back, way, way, back. Since in the suppose original poster there is one more person, and in the second image there’s only 3 proving the image was plagiarized would be difficult in a court of law.
It’s nice to have approval of parents. You don’t need it but culturally people want it
I found something I might rewatch, it has been some time since I watched this drama. An older drama from Taiwan, I think, that made its way to Viki and available in Europe it seems.
Ah Ok… grazie… non avevo capito… ora è chiaro. Peccato 
ok, y’all may have to set me straight on something, I watched a drama guess a few years ago, about a bodyguard, and think it was Korean,
well this one is cute, and surprising the guy’s name is Mr. Gu
this is the wrong one
the other one with this fella is
which now I know the wrong drama I was thinking about. but anyway about this one bodyguard and all, is it a remake??
and not sure this is the one I was thinking about
have I confused you enough? sorry about that
maybe I ought to rewatch them anyway
those two I mentioned aren’t bodyguards. so maybe its the last one. 2012, wow a long time since I have seen that one, so maybe watch again
