WARNING: THE REVIEW CONTAINS SOME MAJOR SPOILERS, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Oh, this drama. I do feel kind of sad now that I have finished it, because I got attached to some of the characters and I will, for sure, dearly miss them. However, I can't lie that I got a little bit tired towards the end and I was waiting with a slight excitement to finish the show.
I think the best thing about The Unfamiliar Family is its amazing characters. During these 16 episodes, you grow to love the characters, to understand them and to accept them and their flaws. And that's not all about it, the characters also did grow to understand each other and accept their different point of views. And it was so important because they had to face so many difficult situations. Eun Joo, for example, my poor girl. She seemed like a strong woman at the beginning with her cold stare and poker face, but when her life crumbled, we all saw how weak and lonely she is. She had to divorce her husband because he came out as gay and found out she had been lied to for all these years by the person she actually truly loved. And on top of that, she found out that her father is not her biological father. She had it really hard and my heart ached for her. Her character development was such a pleasure to watch though and Choo Ja Hyun was brilliant at playing her complex character.
The thing I don't like about this drama... At some point it became so dramatic, so makjang-ish. So many sh*t happened at once and I just couldn't get emotionally attached because everything was served at once and it was lowkey laughable. There are so many plot twists in this show, a secret hides behing every angle. I do understand that what happened had to happen because after that, we could see the so many heart-warming scenes between the family. But still, the pace in the middle was not that good. The overall pace of the story, though, was actually nice and it was typical for this type of show.
The acting was good overall, Han Ye Ri's and Choo Ja Hyun's perfeormances are my favourite, the girls did an amazing job. It's a well-chosen cast for sure. I don't quite know why the drama doesn't have romance as one of the genres when there's, in fact, a very beautiful romantic stories in the show. They are not the main plot, but they are quite there.
Overall, a good family drama with well-written characters. I love how they didn't make it a long family drama and drag things out, it's nice as it is.
