I watched this shortly after finishing Love Affairs in the Afternoon (kr version), so it was definitely interesting to compare and contrast the two. Ultimately, I liked this drama better, but I do also acknowledge that the circumstances of the couples portrayed in their respective dramas are also quite different.

The good: I loved the cast! I've never seen BoA in an acting role before so I had reservations about her ability, but like the rest of the cast, she assumed her character very naturally and convincingly. I adored Lee Sangyeob and his character (which was TOTALLY different from LAITA, definitely threw me off) and I loved Lee Sunkyun in My Mister and Diary of a Prosecutor. Also, BABY KIM KANG HOON IS SO CUTE :( In terms of the story, I liked that it was able to show the many reasons why people have affairs and/or get divorced from both a logical and emotional perspective. It delved into the complexities of a relationship and the need for communication and understanding to sustain it. There was a good balance between serious notes and comedic relief, with plenty of Lee Sunkyun's token vacant, I-am-dissociating-from-this-world expression to match. Overall, it was pretty heart-warming and surprisingly thoughtful.

The meh: The plot dragged its feet quite a bit in the first half. I think the story could've easily done without one or two episodes, especially the majority of the last episode. I wish they had shown Mom more, even if it was an intended effort to focus on the husband instead.
