Drama Digest

The story starts with a widower Lee Young Guk who has three children and suffers from amnesia.  He decides to hire a live-in tutor for his children. Park Dan Han comes to his house as a live-in tutor. She is fun-loving and caring towards the children. After some time, Lee Young Guk falls for her. Meanwhile, Park Dan Han struggles to live a better life. She faced several harsh situations but despite everything her optimistic outlook towards life is never in doubt.

The Feel-Good Part

It is interesting how Pak Dan’s father becomes the driver of Lee Young Kook. Dan Han’s stepbrother becomes the lover of Lee Young Kook’s sister.  Although she is his stepsister, he treats her as his real sister. Meanwhile, Dan Han’s stepmother argues with her father and expresses her desire to live separately. That’s why her father lives in Lee Young Kook’s staff’s quarter. On the other hand, the story of the three children is pretty interesting. There are some intriguing subplots in the show. The family issues make it a very wholesome watch

The Disappointing Part

The writing could have been better. There are several subplots in the show which needlessly extended the shows length. The amnesia sequence of the main lead could have ended in five episodes, but it was dragged out to more than 20 episodes. There is quirky and funny background music in the show, but the scenes don’t seem to fit well with the music. This might seem annoying at parts. People may want to see the punishments of the evil women in the show.

In-depth Analysis

The show has beautifully portrayed the romance between the two people overcoming difficult situation in their relationship due to their age gap.

Star Power

The actors are perfect for their roles. As a widower, Lee Young Guk is so good in his role. The romance between the main lead is great to watch. The female lead gives an amazing performance. She knows how to deal with a tough situation.

Overall Opinion

Overall, it does have a strong cast of actors like Dan Han’s dad and stepmother…now that relationship is interesting, but the storyline and age difference between the main leads feels off sometimes. Dan Han is closer to Young Guk’s daughter’s age and behavior, making it suitable to see that he is falling for her. Since such episodes haven’t released of this show, there is not much more to say; you can watch it if you want.
