    people blame jimin, fnc – all justified..

    but i think the other members should bear the blame too..

    What is the point of going around pretending to be this nice naive, innocent, loving , caring Seolhyun’s of the world (whoever that lass is that became famous after beer commercial).

    those guys were equally vile – supporting jimin till date because that ensure their big fat cheques

    had they all complained, had fnc thrown out all girls to keep one? No!!

Okay, the actress playing Ju Ri……she is sooooo baaad….what was the crying scene even…neither comedy nor tragedy

    Also she is not harmless, she very skillfully and slyly tried to insinuate that Ko Moon Young got attacked because her father was protecting himself from her….she is caring for a patient who remembers very little, knows nothing about their dynamic but chose to paint a version of Moon Young and cast aspersions at her character to another person…I am glad the nurse called her out on that…so this is why I don’t like Juri, she may look nice but these types of people can get away with a lot by faking it

    it was funny.. like how kid cry when they can’t get what they want..

    she represents another common type in the world..

    she is not bad either.. we don’t know her end of the story.. even if it rests in jealousy since childhood.. all of us feel jealous too and act on it

I thought Oh My Baby would address getting a baby without any husband or boyfriend and how it will get accepted by Hari, her friends and fami….I mean it turned out to be a standard romcom at the end

    I mean I liked what they gave us but it wasn’t anything ground breaking by the end since the main issue they started out with wasn’t even explored by the end….its a good take on both male, female fertility issue but I feel slightly cheated

      I feel like whenever there’s a really popular drama, we see a surge in these comments. Usually, most registered Beans are very nice and respect each other’s opinions.

        That is true! I haven’t been active in here in a while and have not noticed that before. DB must be getting more popular these days.

          Yea! I haven’t come across that many sites that offer detailed recaps like DB, and I’m sure that’s the draw. I usually avoid the popular drama’s comments section bc I don’t wanna inadvertently join in on a mean-spirited argument. So I tend to share my thoughts here on the fan wall. IOTNBO is the exception for most of the comments are so interesting and nice, but there are a few oddballs that make me go “huh”?

      If it’s the user I’m thinking about I don’t think it’s weird. She likes the actors but not the drama itself and for some reasons wants to post about it but as long as it’s polite why would it bother anyone?

Hae Kyung deserves better, if Do Hee still can’t trust him, then she really doesn’t deserve him #Dinnermate

    Do-hee’s dealings with Jae-hyuk are baffling. Surly this man has overdrawn her last ounce of goodwill, right? Right?! Hae-kyung doesn’t need to be hero on a white horse but he’s shown that he’s a person she can trust. I like flawed characters but this is too much. Do-hee, get your act together.

    Especially when kids are involved….and yes I would be mad if my said kept paying for somebody else and kept it secret from me….family decisions regarding finance is not a stand alone decision, it had major impact on the entire family dynamic….Ji Sook’s fault is not confronting it but Sang Shik is the bigger culprit

      “ Sang Shik is the bigger culprit “

      No kidding. What an ass. He had no business making that decision without his family at least being in the know. It was an incredibly selfish act. To me the limited reaction from the family shows how much they just don’t care any more.

Thoughts on ItsOkayNoToBeOkay episode 4

    The theme pretty much centered around how much Kang Tae has been lying about his mental exhaustion in today’s episode. Moon Young brought out the issues he refuses to even admit that exists on the surface. Kang Tae had to take the role of the adult in the family long before he was supposed to. And he has essentially been on the run and lying to himself. He wants somebody to care for him, he craves love, attention as much as anybody else. He truly let his guard down around Moon Young before realizing Moon Young isn’t sound mentally herself. I think he was disappointed more than angry when he walked out of the car. Then came the slap and that made him explode. Like the director said, letting loose emotions once in a while is healthy. I do feel for him, in one hand he does like Moon Young, at the same time he is more than ever aware of the fact that Moon Young is not who he wants her to be, so he pushed her away. I can’t say I blamed him. Moon Young herself confronted her one half of living family. Its clear that Moon Young’s father himself was abusive or deranged to an extent. Even if Moon Young was antisocial, how does an educated architect think of killing her instead of getting her the help she needs professionally. Her mother is alive as well. I think her mother was the one peeking at her from distance. Its clear that Moon Young’s family dynamic was less than ideal. Her mother may have been loving but she does seem quite strange in the flashback. Her father straight up killed her once. I am not sure how much of the personality Moon Young has was from birth and how much of it was a direct consequence of mismanagement. The central theme was also about how children aren’t ornamental beings you produce to fulfill a certain quota, you shouldn’t have them if you aren’t ready to fully accept them as who they are. How much of Moon Young is due to nature and how much is due to nurture, I guess we will find out. Now lets talk about OK psychiatric facility. A mental patient chokes his daughter and not one of them ask Moon Young how is she. Moon Young at that moment by the way is laughing and crying like she is manic. You don’t need to be a Ph.D. holder to know right at that point that this person is traumatized and needs care and consolation. The only person who truly has shown some foresight in all this is the director. I am pinning on all my hopes on him that he will reach out to Moon Young and coax her into accepting the help she needs. Anyway now that Kang Tae has fully given Moon Young some spot in his tiny life, I wonder how things will unfold. More chaos followed by some sanity, clarity or just pure chaos.

      On director-
      think he knows way more. .. been here in this city for long?

      He knew JY and MG are related..
      He seems to know MG’s nature – and he is keeping her here because finally she has sthg that is making her stay here willingly

      Think the one peeking might be the doctor himself..
      someone died..likely mom.. won’t make sense for her to be alive..although would be fun if she is alive

      question is how is JY related to MG – doesn’t look like step daughter.. maid’s daughter?

      I loved that these episodes focused on parents accepting their children. The episodes showed that parents may love their children but not accept them. Zombie Boy showed the mother going to great lengths and making sacrifices for him but not accepting him for who he is.

      I mean they look cute but I totally get it…for example I really like Seo Kyung in When My Love Blooms…she was a villain but there was more to her, you could actually even sympathize..so maybe in the hands of somebody more experienced, No Eul wouldn’t appear so insuffreable.

Eun Joo…I am starting to think she gets off on being cruel to her mother..She catagorically looks down on her mother, why because she wasn\’t the breadwinner so her efforts don\’t count

    I don’t think she looks down to her mother (I still haven’t watched episode 8).
    So I’m just talking about episode 7 and previous. JinSook is the mother and EunJoo is her daughter.
    EunJoo has grown thinking her mother wanted to kill her and herself, and going through a very rough time in her twenties when she earned as much money as her dad, and gave it all to her family.
    She’s been the main supporter of her family and she’s never really got her mother’s love, who’s clearly bent to EunHee and JiWoo. She didn’t even get a “thank you” from her family about how hard she worked in her twenties. She had already told EunHee (who didn’t mutter a thing because it was true) and she told her mum on episode 7.
    This family clearly has communication problems.

      She refuses to see her father playing any part in this mess, it is all her mother’s fault…her misunderstandings are being cleared….we are running out of excuses for her to be this nasty.

        He takes her dad’s side just as EunHee takes always her mum’s side. I agree that she’s a harsh person, but I do like her and I find her more reliable than Eun Hee.
        We kindly agree we desagree.

          No, I disagree…Eun Hee takes her mother’s side but hasn’t gone out of her way to be hurtful to him yet…..watch episode 8…her struggles don’t excuse her here. Her mother may not have gone out of her way with expressing love for her and that contributed to her bitterness, I agree. But raising her doesn’t count in Eun Joo’s head as doing enough as a mother, so in that sense she does look down on her, keep in mind Eun Joo’s mother raised 3 kids on limited income. See, episode 8. It irked me. I am getting tired…it must be exhausting for her mother to deal with her. Birth secret aside, I seriously am starting to run out of patience with her. Also, I can’t get that a grown adult getting a divorce herself wants to shame her mother for prioritizing herself. It is not sitting well with me.

            Oh, I’ve already watched episode 8.
            I really like Eun Joo, even with all her flaws.
            Regarding mum, she made her life miserable and also her kids because she asumes her husband cheated on her. In this episode it seems clear that he hadn’t (something I had been thinking from the beginning). In fact, Miss Suk is the less likeable member of the family to me.
