"why do you love period dramas?" because when you remove modernity, when you remove the comfort, you are left with stories of humans who lived in the darkest of times with nothing but the light they shared with one another. it's nostalgia, it's warmth, it's hope. #TyphoonFamily pic.twitter.com/BDmtGCNFng

Beyond romance, people are connecting with how real the drama feels—family dynamics, quiet resilience, and small moments of hope. Comments range from “internally squealing” over the chemistry to praise for performances that some say rival the actors’ career highs.

Fans on Reddit said that their favorite is the last night’s episode.

“The development between TaePoong and MiSeon is moving along nicely too. I loved how he said she was like cosmos.”

“Somehow eclipsed his performances in “Just Between Lovers” and “The Red Sleeve” in just three episodes. JunHo and Minha’s acting in the last half of the episode was just incredible.”

“The tiny glimpses of romance sprinkled over the episodes make my cheeks hurt from smiling so much. MiSeon and Taepoong are perfect for each other, and I pray to the K-Drama gods that the writers don’t mess this up.”

“It’s unbelievable that Kim MinHa was a last-minute casting, as Keum SaeRok—who was originally offered the role—stepped down due to personal reasons… She’s so good; I cannot imagine anyone else playing Oh MiSeon now!”

“I love the energy of this drama. I feel a surge of energy watching it and get inspired to work—do something.”
