Time slot: Saturday-Sunday
Broadcaster: TV Chosun
Genre: Melodrama, family
Episode count: 20

Reasons to watch: I have to give it to TV Chosun — they definitely know their audience and their kind of storytelling. And with Seo Ji-hye (fresh from an amazing performance in Adamas) and Lee Sang-woo in the lead, I’m actually kind of excited to see if the drama will be able to live up to its high promises of addictive storytelling. Tell me I won’t want to turn off this drama, and I believe you! Centered on four characters, their spouses, and the families they’ve married into, the drama is all about their ambitions, desires, passions, and — of course — frustrations. Because you can’t have high drama if everything goes your way.

TL;DR: Seo Ji-hye, TV Chosun doing its thing

Willing to give this one a try for the love of a good story about family relationships. Hoping they can keep it real without inserting random dangerous life threatening drama elements.

We should compile our own list of things that don't need to be in a drama like this and if they have two of more of those we bin in. Amnesia, life threatening or degenerative illness, stalker, domestic violence, loss of parent by a violent/sudden death when they were a child or raised in a children’s home, so they or their partner is more likely to be violent and aggressive when drunk.
