Legalmente, Pai (2020)

Meh

This was mehh. First of all this could have been longer and more planned. The way they did it made it weird. It was just rushed. Like from episode 2-5 she was his "daughter". I don't even know where the feelings magically came from. And in episode six all of a sudden they're confessing feelings left and right. And then a month later after NOT SEEING EACH OTHER he wants to marry her. Lmao. I WISH. Anyways I stayed for the sister she was cuteee.


Almost forgot about the "invisible rain in episode 5-6. Lmao. Were we supposed to imagine the rain ??? I'm still confused lol.

Damn it was confusing.

Gosh it was weird, I mean really weird. The whole story was a quite a lot mess and the concept also though I liked that little girl she was so cute and the visuals of actors are good. First of all how he become father of them it was weirdest plot. Okay you made them their dad then what's with the romantic feelings lol... Oops it's genre is romance so you can show romance even with nothing. So then they both develop out of nowhere okay it was his love at first sight but what about her when did she started to like him and why? Ah I really bad for her friend....

So overall even it's just a short web drama I don't recommend it.

Just adorable...

First let me say, this is a plot that should not work and should feel strange. Plus, the whole idea of a guy adopting the older sister (even on paper) seems very odd since she is a legal adult, but I LOVE the little sister and him being her "Dad" is adorable. The older sister and the "Dad" are cute together, but there isn't really an ick factor because she's 23....not remotely a kid, and he's only 5 years older than her. Plus the little sister actually sets up the contract and the older sister is sort of the "plus 1" for the plan. So, somehow it all works. Is it odd...yes. But it's a mini drama with only 6 episodes so a lot can be forgiven since there is very little time to tell the story.

I found this show adorable. I enjoyed it a lot and I'm so glad I watched it.

Adorable, fast paced, short drama with a cringe trope

I LOVED this drama. It was short, straight to the point and adorable. It was also quite fast paced which is why I think a lot of people didn't like, or maybe understand this drama.

I loved how adorable this drama was. Despite it being extremely unrealistic and cliche, it wasn't in the least bit cringe. It had me smiling from ear to ear throughout every episode. The cast was perfect and the acting was also really good, especially for this type of, usually cringe trope, drama.

The male lead is handsome as hell, something I usually never mention, but he really fit his role. I love how the story was told, with it being mostly from the FL's prospective, but each episode would end, or even midway though, showing the important scenes from the ML's prospective.

The female lead was smart, reasonable and had an adorable relationship with everyone. She reminded me of the FL from Extraordinary You . The little sister was also really adorable and I loved how she brought the male lead into their lives.

I also loved the ending of this drama, despite how short it was, it was able to have an unexpectedly closed happy ending. The ending really couldn't have been better.

Not Good Enough

" Legally, Dad " was a quick, rushed and predictable.

The story had authenticity in it, with the random stranger picking up two sisters to be his family. However, it wasn't handled well. The story was predictable and even the twists were overused. The pace was just too fast and it didn't give the characters time to progress their relationship and be properly developed. The ending was almost laughable (sorry...)


Other than that, the performances were okay, and everyone in the cast did a good job with their characters. Even the little girl gave a decent performance.

So, overall, three out of ten.

NECESITABA TENER MAS CAPITULOS

HISTORIA: Ok este es de los dramas con la historia mas extraña que he visto y de ser tan rara la hace linda, en si es buena pero la sipnosis en si no es muy claro y no toma un punto clave en la historia, y es el hecho que el tambien adopta a ah-young, ya que en eso te hace entender que solo adopto a la hermana, la historia de amor es rara, tierna y un poco rapida, entiendo que hayan hecho tan rapida la historia ya que obviamente eran 60 minutos de todo el drama, por lo que en esto los excuso. Me hubiera encantado que hubieran profundizado en la muerte de los padres de las protagonistas. Pero apesar de todo eso me gusto

ELENCO: Primero que todo, me explican por que todos eran guapos en ese drama, segundo en si su actuacion fue buana Dan-Bi (la hermana menor) actuo demasiado bien en este papel, apesar de ser pequeña, y le veo mucho futuro en el mundo de los kdramas, el protagonista Sul Yoo Sang, me encanto es que era tan perfecto y ya agregue todos sus dramas a mi lista, el mejor amigo de Ah-Young era un amor y aunque no me hizo dudar de mi team me hubiera encantado poder verlo siendo feliz, en cuanto a Ah-Young actuo perfecto, siento que ese papel fue hecho para ella

MUSICA: Me gusto mucho el OST, pero no recuerdo ninguna asi que por eso la 7 estrellas

VOLVER A VER: Claro, amo los dramas los cuales no son muy pesados de ver , y este mini drama fue muy liviano y una vez que lo inicie no lo deje hasta terminarlo

- Necesitaba mas episodios para que la historia se pudiera desarrollar mejor
- Los actores se notan tranquilos con su papel
- Te enamoras de los personajes

Decide Youself!

If you are wondering how is this drama. I made a short video of full drama. The duration of the video is just 4 minutes where you know the basic story of drama.

[Copy this link and click on open] https://youtu.be/lbUZHGTSb6s

Orphan Ah Young is a financially struggling 23-year-old who takes care of her 8-year-old sister Dan Bi while juggling part-time jobs. One day a 28-year-old man Yoo Sang appears in front of Ah Young offering to be her dad through a signed agreement.

More music than character development...

*outline*
Considering the drama was so short, it was a given there wouldn't be much to the story. I was actually surprised at how the plot turned out to be like when I actually watched the drama. I was expecting something more lowkey and dry but I still went ahead and just watched the whole thing at 3am on a school morning because of sheer boredom. Compared to my usual reviews, I don't have much to say.


*analysis*
STORY : My eyes were genuinely closing after around episode 3, but that was just because I was tired. However, I still continued to watch it since the ending seemed unclear to me. It was interesting in the aspect I didn't know how the ending would come to be a happy ending (because web dramas always have a happy ending). The confession only caused content for me, I was satisfied with the way things turned out but it didn't cause a large reaction from me. The kiss scene didn't cause anything inside me either. I sort of ended up watching it just for the sake of it. On the other hand, there was quite a good pace to the drama and I clearly saw good build up of emotions.

ACTING / CAST : There was lack of character development; I think the only character that had even slightly evolved was Sul Yoo Sang. One thing I didn't like from the very beginning was the fact I noticed Lee A Ra was wearing makeup. Usually I don't see children wear any/too much makeup in any drama, so I was quite disappointed. This is the reason society has beauty standards we can't keep up with anymore. I'm glad the makeup artist used less makeup after the first 2 episodes but from the beginning I got a bad impression of where I assumed the crew's importance lied. Lee A Ra almost wore more makeup than Lee Hyun Joo. However, despite the whole drama about the makeup, the acting was on point. Every character stuck to their roles and it never felt like a 'drama'. In fact, it felt like something realistic despite having a little bit of a fantasy feel to it. I mean... 'a chaebol becomes a dad, and then turns into a boyfriend within the span of only a couple weeks'. Then again, it's a web drama so fantasy was sort of a given.

MUSIC : I felt like there was too much focus on the music, that the story was entirely forgotten. I heard more tracks in the span of 11 minutes than I did in any other. This is probably why the story ended up being a little dry. The music displayed the change of emotions really well, however. I could feel how emotions were being built up throughout the drama.

REWATCH VALUE : Medium. True, I didn't like the drama a huge amount but it's actually an easy watch. There were only 6 episodes and 11 minutes per episode, it actually felt like a movie. And I didn't get bored of it either. However, I think I won't miss any of the character especially; maybe only Kim Dan Bi's mischievousness and Sul Yoo Sang's giving nature.

Watched for the eye candy

Story
--> This started out slow but fast-forwarded towards the end of the miniseries. I liked how they establish and introduced the characters but they sped up the storyline towards the end. It was like--he liked her the first time he saw her, they fell on each other (literally), he opened up, he fought the second lead which was the girl's best friend for a long time and won, he confessed, they kissed, he left, she waited, he came back to her open arms. Okay, it's a cliche.

Acting
--> Their acting was so-so.

Cast
--> The leading man is so cute to look at I was able to finish this series. Dan Bi was adorable as well.

Music
--> I. AM. TONE. DEAF. So, I better leave this part and not comment on this one.

Rewatch Value
--> I'd still watch it again--I'd still watch HIM again.

Dan Bi é uma menininha que não tem pais e mora com a irmã mais velha, Ah Young. Ela se esforça muito em criar a irmã mais nova em meio a emprego e viver.

Yoo Sang tem a perspectiva de ficar com a empresa da avó após a morte dela. Porém, no testamento ele precisa ter uma filha, e com a esperteza da Dan Bi, ambos acabam fechando um acordo, o que faz os três morarem junto.

O romance entre Ah Young e o Yoo Sang acontece aos poucos e progride bem.

Amei muito esse minidrama, além de ser bem rapidinho e fluído. A atriz que interpreta a Dan Bi é uma querida que roubou a cena.

the typical comic romance story (a webtoon adaptation so yeah)

well the title says it all,, i love shoujo romance but this one has such weird plot? it is going too fast and i dont see chemistry from the couple. i feel bad for her guy friend.... but he just easily gave her up after 7 years of having crush. 7 years. i can't understand him in that part.

honestly i'm watching it for choi kyunghoon since i love his past works but this one is such a letdown :c

the ending tho lmao they barely lived together but he proposed to her??!? just because she said she considers the thought of marriage? but she said it to her friend, not to him lol.

also danbi is so adorable she's the only okay character among all the other characters. i stan her.
