Niche

Season 1 was really great.
In season 2, I think a lot of people expected some explanation. I think the creators intentionally left questions unanswered. Philosophical show, yes. Although I like that idea, I think the show lacks entertainment value for ordinary audience like me who needs to be tickled to fully appreciate the message.
While I applaud the brilliant premise, the show should have balanced the intentions of creators with the expectation from viewers. This has become pretty niche that only fans of cosmic genre will rave about, thus limiting its reach and seemingly failing at its purpose of imparting its philosophical message to wider audience.
Also, I wish there were more scenes with Min Hye Jin and the baby (now a cute toddler) just to soften the show, as there are a bunch of baddies and craziness almost the entire show. Min Hye-Jin and Park Jung-ja have very limited scenes you would think they were just supporting roles. The creators could have shown them more. as many fans of the first season attached the series to those characters. Bringing in new characters is fine, but they are given much more focus than those two main characters who only appear sporadically throughout the show.
Can't really help but sigh... I guess the creators opted for a different route deliberately to not satisfy the viewers.
Still, I am hoping for season 3. This series has great premise and potential. I still have hope that this can really be a philosophical masterpiece viewers can relate to if the succeeding season/s deliver.

Silly and too superficial for me

Without the comedy, it's almost unwatchable. It's silly that this show seems to dignify the actions of an irresponsible father who, after being absent for so long, goes on showing how life has been good without his family and, backed by his newly acquired wealth, now decides to barge into their lives, romance his wife, not minding the feelings of his daughter who has taken the huge responsibility of providing for the family and devoting her life to them. The betrayal she must be feeling doubled by the fact that her little brother easily sided with the father and the mother seems to be getting swayed as well. It's pretty annoying that the father gets a better life while the family is left behind to face the repercussions of his failures. What's even more unfathomable is that he is so confident (almost cocky) that he can romance his way back because he's got money now. This is one very superficial drama.
