i'm so happy! i was wondering if it will be getting an extension because most KBS weekenders usually do but even though it's only 2 it's better than nothing, i'm not prepared to let this drama go just yet!

Yay!!! ???

I'm all for this! FiS is like a warm, cozy comfort food to top off my week. I'm glad I get to enjoy it for another week!

Excuse me? Park ShiHoo and all of a sudden Shin HyeSun? This is the first I'm seeing/hearing of this.

Gurl why, gurl????

Why don't you put our Hae Young unni's picture as well? ???

I'm OK with 2 epi! There are shows which have been extended up to 10 epi, so 2 epi is nothing, if it means I can get to see more of Unni and her various expressions. ??

I hope the angsty week won't last long! I need my weekly dose of comfort food back. So, yay to extra week of comfort food! I hope everyone got a nice ending, too. Most of the characters grew on me :)

This show taught me to love series about families and everyday life (and also lessen my worry over 50+ episodes). I'll take an extra week!

For once I am loving the episode extension so I get to spend more time with this lovely family! I also have full faith that the writer will not feel the need to make anyone a serial killer, an amnesiac, or getting terminal cancer to fill the extra two hours. All I need is Joong-hee smiling goofily at everything Mi-young does and Hye-young turning on her full sass!

Yay-- an extra week of FIS goodness. It's gonna be hard to say goodbye to this one-- it's been my rock, too.

That's good news ! FIS really needed an extension.

Great news!
This drama always fills me with warmth.

And I think I coud watch Unnie's and Sunbae's love plays for ever :--)
(Ryu Soo Young and Lee Yuri must have a blast playing these characters :--)))) )

This is my firs t family, weekend and 50 episode drama and i have been loving it so far especially that feel of family. it reminds me of mine.
I can't wait for new episodes... i really don't how this wonderful family will get through this crisis. Well i am already preparing my heart for whatever the writer throws at me. Countdown to weekend!!!!!

Honestly, I think the show could stand an additional 2 more episodes. I mentioned on a recap that I hate the whole,"we can't be together because of our parents" trope. But in the case of Father is Strange, it's TOTALLY justified. I need some real solid resolution before I can have that couple be together. That said, within reason, take all the time you need, Show.

Hell YES !
I was doing the countdown yesterday, already grieving in the "last twelve eps" statement....
I need more of my comfort food, as in endless useless mother in law/ daughter in law fights, unni/sunbae's marriage, Jun young growth, Joong Hee search for real family and love, Uncle and Aunt's ways of living through hard times, Granny's sass, Ra Young and her manchild boyfriend and last but not least, the devoted parents ♥

I'm happy for a 2 episode extension, this is the first time in years I am interested in a weekend drama. It is so very well made and the family dynamic is really heartwarming.

The acting is also on point for the entire ensemble.

Yayyy! I'm loving this drama! it manages to be soo funny while also inducing tear-fests!

Oh yeay! My first 50-eps weekender and I can't believe I'm actually happy for it's extension! With engaging story and wonderful acting like FIS, 38 episodes flew by like a breeze and 12 more will go by like a blink of an eye it feels like its ending already. So I welcome another two episodes of Walnut & Sunbae, Intern & Actor Ahn and Al with open arms!

so happy right now haha this show is my rock too ^^

I love this drama.. How Byun parent adore their children.. How they solved their family issue together... Morning breakfast is my favorite scenes, without Joong Hee and Hye-young the morning seems incomplete.

yay! more time episodes for my marathon! I stopped at ep 32 and I want to marathon till the end.

Yahoo! What great news!! Me likey.

Usually I'm not enamored with extensions as they break up the flow of a drama, but it's hard to mess up a 50 episode family weekend drama. So it's a win! Lol.

What episode is the screenshot from at the top of this post? I'm caught up through last weekend, but I don't remember this scene. Anyone know?

Lee Joon is playing the hell out of his role. That scene with mother Byun from ep. 38 was one of the best performances in the whole drama.
The only thing I don't like is how much screentime the mother in law gets. She is seriously annoying and I always fast forward her scenes. I don't really care about her story.

This news makes me so happy. I typically wait until a show is over to start watching it, but Father is Strange drew me in immediately. That early scene involving the kids having to sit outside until they'd made up, with the flash back to when they were little, hooked me. The scene felt like a real memory, written into the script, and so much of the family's dynamics and love toward each other has carried that same sincerity.

I feel confident that all of the current angst is going to be resolved by the fact that this family and its many extensions, at their root, love each other dearly. You can't help but forgive those you love, after all.

I am so happy! I will take anything so long as I can still see the whole cast of this drama. Loving this drama more and more.

An excellent family drama--even the Song-Song couple loved it when it was airing in 2017! It withstands the test of time with its heart-touching family drama, interesting characters & romance plots.

You know that feeling when a regular 16-episode drama ends and you want more or you keep re-watching stuff because you haven't found a replacement? Well, just watch this 52-episode drama --it is very WORTHWHILE. It is engaging, entertaining, warm & cozy, romantic and satisfying plus it is highly rated.
