The Episode Review

In episode 3, Yi-joo manages to arrange a meeting between the families. In the meantime, Jung-hye and Yoo-ra plot against Yi-joo in an effort to prevent her from wedding Do-kook.

The episode is lively and engaging, with a healthy dose of drama. There’s a protagonist in distress, an evil stepmother, a sassy in-law, and so on, so the characters are rather stereotypical. That isn’t necessarily a problem, but the drama element in it could get out of hand if overused. At this point, though, it doesn’t seem overly done, which is excellent.

So far, the show has been like a guilty pleasure. It’s not particularly of value, but it’s entertaining enough to keep you coming back for more
