I love how Joon's character is always panicked, desperate and "what to do?!" in general, it's such a nice change from your usuall kdramas colds bastards or almost saint good boys and it fits his situation perfectly.
It seems like the only thing he's sure of is his love for Bom and later baby and those "hungry", awkward kisses... If Joon won't get some award for it I'll flip shit bc his 27 years old ass covinced me to believe that he's lost&in love&fresh off high school and that's something;D (that Woobin and Minho failed in a drama that should not be named)

PS. The mother's friends are deviles, it's Gangnam's Gossip Girl adult version lol.

Joon is really impressing me in this role. I don't know if I want to hit or hug him at times though.
It's so refreshing to have a drama where the rich dude isn't a douche or overly confident.

I like Bom moms, for me to love her is to get her child and grandson , why leave them there?

First thing's first, the baby is the CUTEST little pumpkin pie ever. When Joon kissed his cheek in the first/second episodes....it was too much. I almost wanted a family of my own. Scared me so bad, lol.

I don't like In Sang's parents. Especially his father. Though, him letting In Sang hang to dry under the table was hilarious. I was hoping Bom's mom would hit In Sang's mom. I often wonder if that kind of thing happens in Korea, making a contract to pay for the baby and whatnot. I'm almost sure it happens here in the US...lol.
