I wanted to watch this show but I've been a bit busy... Can anyone tell me if it is good/worth my limited time? It'd be very much appreciated! x)

it's really cute and funny imo

I'm enjoying it immensely! They are fully going with the Black Comedy and it's awesome! The use of music in particular underscores certain scenes so perfectly I'm constantly cackling xD

The OTP is incredibly sweet and IN LOVE! Lee Joon and Go Ah Sung are doing a great job so far!

His parents (so the 'evil one's') are a piece of work but they have been so living in their own world and they are so scared to ridicule themselves in front of others that their actions just look funny! (even if they are aggravating sometimes :P)

Her family is a hoot and they'll probably play a big role in the fight of the young one's against his parents!

Ah and then there's the staff at his parents' house and they are a hoot as well! Always getting together to gossip xD Plus most of them are helping Bom and In Sang and it's great to watch! His sister is also great bc she is totally enjoying that the baby has sent their parents into panic mode^^

But I think especially with this one you have to see for yourself if you like it or not since it's completely different from the other K-Drama stuff that's out there ;)

The musical director must be having the time of his/her life. It's perfect.

That last bit of episode 5 just cracked me the hell up. Also the part with Baby Jinyoung and Grandparents, I was immobilized during that entire scene. The baby is just so cute and squishy!

Episode 6 was SO intense. I haven't been so glued to an episode since I started watching. So far, that was easiest the funniest drama ending. Things went from worst to horrible in a matter of 20 seconds, lmao.
