Family: The Unbreakable Bond (2023)

I had a hard time finishing this series! Apart from the very very cute kids, the show is a lame Mr. and Mrs. Smith with a bunch of plot holes and loose ends. It would have been more interesting to see the family and their interaction since it's a comedy afterall! Why complicate things when you don't want to explain anything in the end. The couple didn't have any proper talk among each other after they discovered the truth about one another. I'd rather watch more Minseo and Boseok! It would have been fun to watch that rather feeling that it was a task to be done with.

Disappointing.

I may be in the minority, or not. But this show was such a huge letdown for me. They used "Family" so much in the drama, but they made it too comedic and not really something to look forward to watching. The action drama and storyline of the series could've been its saving grace, but the story had so many plot holes it was such a headache to watch and appreciate. While the plot twist with Jang Nara's history seemed like the saving grace of the drama, it wasn't enough. Not only were the first episodes very dragging, but also lacked chemistry between the leads and the family members- the interactions shown all seemed very fake and cringey. Most especially the husband and wife interactions. It's so bland. The way I see it, they portrayed it like they're just staying together for the sake of being like a family... The attitude of the male lead towards the beginning was also such a red flag.

Honestly, I was only able to finish the series with the hope that it'll turn better but it didn't. Until the end, the plotholes just thickened and nothing still made sense.
