Romance In The House

After his business crashes, a man disappears from his family for 11 years; when he makes a return as their wealthy landlord, a messy reunion ensues.

My Ratings:

The shows I share here will only be the ones I like and recommend watching.  I don’t believe in bashing shows because what I don’t like you might love.

I have four rating:

Good – Kept My Interest

Great – I enjoyed it

Loved it – Had me in my feelings

The Best – Made it To My Top Kdrama List

Great – I enjoyed it.

This was a new Kdrama, and it had me in my feelings because it was about the relationship between a father and his family. As a daughter who had a few daddy issues, this had me questions a few things in my own relationship. I did enjoy the romance between the parents and the FL and her boyfriend. Both couples had relationship issues and had to learn how to work through the during the serious. I enjoyed this show, but I don’t think it will be one that I’ll add to my rewatch list. There weren’t many moments that made me want to see them again.

Kiss Points – 7 – Good kisses

(Points: 1 – Surprise Fish Eyes  3 – Sweet Peck  5 – Makes you smile  10 – Makes

Pachinko – Season 1

The hopes and dreams of four generations of a Korean immigrant family, beginning with a story of a forbidden romance that leads to a sweeping saga taking place in Korea, Japan and America.

Great – I enjoyed it.

I decided to watch this show because I kept hearing about.  This is not a Kdrama.  I’m adding it here because it’s an American drama about a Korean family.  The story grabbed me because it went deeper than the historical I was use to watching. This was set in the time when Japan took over Korea and what happen to the Korean people.  They had a lot of heartache and pain, but they persevered. 

One of the stars of this show is Lee Min Ho and if you’re a Kdrama fan you’ve probably seen a few of his shows.  He’s not the good guy in this story.  I thought his character was obsessed with the FL who refused to become his mistress. 

I will say Lee Min Ho looked good in his suits.  I think this made us forget that he was the bad guy.  I’m currently looking at season two and will come back and share what I thought on that season.

After watching the show, I ordered the book because I wanted to find out what happened to this family.  I’m enjoying the book too learning more the Korean culture.  I recommend you read it if you want to read a family saga about a Korean family.
