Family by Choice
(2024 - Viki 16 1:10 eps)

A little girl's widower dad takes in a young boy & along with the divorced dad & his son who live upstairs, they create a found family. The kids have a close relationship but when the boys hit adulthood, the boys spend time apart from their dads & sister with their "other" families. After 10 years, the family reunites.

The 1st 11 eps about their found family are wonderfully done. But the last eps try to wrap up 10 missing years & the pacing feels off. The story is still good, the acting was great, but the writer got sloppy. Nothing was really left hanging, but neither was it fully fleshed out. Fixing broken relationships takes more than we were given.

Choi Won Young as the girl's dad was excellent. Bae Hyeon Seong played a complex character really well. It was nice for once not to see a family pressuring kids about studying.

True Beauty (2020 Viki 16 1:15 eps)

Really liked this one! I was looking for something lighter. Although there's the necessary Kdrama trauma, it has a lot of tropes & the 2nd couple is really funny. I loved the play against stereotypes there. This is the 1st time seeing the 3 main leads and I adored them all. I couldn't decide which side of the love triangle I was rooting for. Lovely high school/college romance, wonderful supporting characters - I don't know when I've hated a mom as much.

Like "The Beauty Inside" it explores loving people no matter their appearance and being true to yourself.
