Today, I want to talk about the third one. 

Its a story about family, so if you're looking to have a funny, heart warmer story about family this is the right drama. Unlike any other Korean Dramas, there are not so many good looking people in this drama. As you can see from the poster above. 

The story is about an alley that filled with 5 families. They are neighbours. They lived together for almost two decades, their children has become a gang of friends. One family, Mr Kim and his wife the lady cheetah is a rich family. The other one is the poor one, who lives on the basement of Mr. Kim's house. Across Mr. Kim's house there are a widow with two children, and also a widower with a son named Choi Taek. 

The gang of friends consist of 4 boys and a girl. The girl named is Deok Sun, the other four boys is Sam Woo, Jung Hwan/Pal, Doe Ryong and Choi Taek. Forgive me if I wrote it wrong. They all grew together since they are at the age of 3 or 4. Every time, almost every night they will gather around Choi Taek's room to watch TV, eating ramen, and chatting. They also go to school together, every single day. Could you imagine the closeness.

So, Sam Woo likes Duk Seon's big sister, they become a couple for years until something happen along the way. The conflict starts when two of the gang member likes Duk Seon as a girl. This is the interesting part. 

The other interesting part is the parents. Like our own parents, the parents has so many lies about many things to protect their family, and also crazy habits that they keep their entire life. You will laugh looking at the parents, it's like looking your own family with their craziness. We got to admit, family do made us crazy at times, but they are the biggest supporter in our life. They will give everything to see us succeed. 

You will start to value your family, accepting their craziness. Laughing with the craziness of the casts, and enjoying their winning. Its like you become part of their families at the end of the drama. 16 episodes is not long for this drama. 

I could still memorize the story after the drama, unlike any other korean dramas that just pass me, and can't remember a thing. This one is a gem. So, please do watch the first 3 episodes and see if you enjoy the drama. 

I give this drama 4/5 stars!
