Korean Drama '' Romance in the House '' is a family melodrama with some romance thrown into it.
The drama starts out well, with the family dynamics being smooth and working in the story's favor.
However, the drama soon lost its charm and the rest of the plot was a series of random incidents.
Yes, there were some nice moments, especially between the main lead and her mother, but that was it. Also, the romance wasn't strong enough to keep things interesting.
The performances, finally, were good enough.
So, overall, five out of ten for the Korean Drama '' Romance in the House ''. It had a good start, but got weaker and weaker as it progressed.

The drama's episode 2 has released and here's my take on the drama.
It has a promising storyline and hopefully it progresses like this as the story develops. The cast and crew are good especially Kin Ji-Soo. Yet to see Ji Jin-Hee's character development but both of them are good actors regardless.
The negative part of the drama is definitely Son Na-Eun. Honestly that lady can't act and I don't understand how she is being casted. Throughout the two episodes her reaction are literally the same be it when she faints, when she exhausted, when she is overworked, when she cry, when she is angry my god there are no variations at all in terms of her expression of the emotions. She's definitely going to be the negative point of the drama should it has good storyline.

If they focused more on kim jisoo and ji jin-hee, I would have given a higher rating. The supporting characters are all fun to watch as well. But I think we all can agree who the weakest link is here! Too much airtime for the daughter. I had never seen this actress, son na-eun? I was initially shocked at first glance. I know kim jisoo was and still a big name? So they made sure the daughter wouldn't outshine her? Is that the case? Bcus I hate to say this about looks but from the digging I did, this actress did it to herself. The amount of work done to make her look like THIS is bonkers to me. It's very distracting. I do look away and just listen when she's on the screen. And her storyline doesn't help her cause. This could have been a fun caper! Kim jisoo and her neighbors go on a fun adventure to find out what MooJin had been doing for the last 11 years! Ugh what could have been...
The main male character is very handsome. I guess this is why it is OK for him to return after being gone along time, In his-previous incarnation. He went through family money and that is why hisWife became frustrated with him and left him, and the family did well without him so when he returns mysteriously rich suddenly with no explanation as to how his turn and finances came about, we are expected to hope for his reunion with his ex, no explanation of how his turn in fate came about however, some innuendo about it being illicit is allowed to Trickle through the drama. Because this basic character paradox is never really answered by episode 10,a lot is expected from the audience in terms of forgiving him, and imagining that he can reconcile with his wife and family. The 10 episodes are in this way a bit of an endurance contest and not satisfying.
The subplot of the daughters romance with the son of her boss also has its issues
The story of the daughter and mother, as they discover the way in which their relationship has been twisted by the trauma they have been through is the highlight of the drama.
The father is very watchable, the other stars Not so much. I wanted to like it, but it feels like it took too long to get to its key character development. I ran out of patience and started speeding through the story, such as I could.
I'm not sure what the story was about even though I watched it all the way to the end. It was so boring that I fell asleep through most of it. It really was a disappointment.

The first thing I wanna make clear here is that it's a good drama overall.
The story that envolves a family who seemed lost when the father and ex husband come out of nowhere being the landlord of their building (and rich). The writers should have been praised here by how well they made everything interesting enough to catch our attention and make it humorously at the same time.
While watching it made me think about my relationship with my mother and sometimes I saw myself fully understanding how hard was to Aeyeon to put Mirae back in his role of daughter and not the head family because I saw myself judging my mother for actions that it doesn't need my approval.
There were some scenes that came so cringe that almost made me drop this drama, but I'm glad that I didn't that because it all worked well in the end.
The plot twists, the way they wrapped up every little story made me feel like if they went to 16 episodes, it would turn out good too.
In the end, I really recommend you to give a chance go this kdrama because it'll be a good choice. It's a good drama who have deep questions and a good end.
