The Feel-Good Part
The main story is presented in a non-controversial manner. One of the best parts was that it showed that infertility affects men also. The characters explored themes at all the stages like the subfertile couple’s journey, the main couple’s struggles, depression and others. It was good to see the struggles of a single father.
The Disappointing Factor
The story maintained a balance for a while but seeped through unnecessary conflicts. Kang Eu Tteum and Hyo Joo’s story was not required. It served as a filler.

This drama is a romantic-comedy and self-actualizing. The drama didn’t take the rom-com part seriously. It used some cheesy stuff to add comic value. The drama also portrays the slice-of-life that everyone has stories of their own. In the mid, the men in Ha Ri’s life were annoying as they were not able to grasp their realities.
