A perfect match: Family love

The beauty of the different relationships

Everyone’s taste is different with dissimilar likes and dislikes. I am someone who dislike discord, particularly when it comes to my personal space. In my view, the world is already so overwhelmingly difficult with politicking, bullying and mistrust, so I really do not need more negative vibes in dramas when these are supposed to be relaxation and enjoyment.

The current offering of dramas, especially K-dramas, just do not appeal. They sensationalize, and have similar themes making one wonder if the writers planned them together. Or they have so much negativity that accentuate the pressure and anti-societal sentiments, which with the world in such a sorry state, we don’t really need more.

All in keeping to the family tree

This is why I miss the good old days of the traditional family dramas that have strong values and why my all-time favorite Park Sihoo-ssi drama is “Family Honor”.  It is a drama that presented the perfect match of relationships. How people interacted, lived and worked with one another. How they grew from strangers and rivals to acquaintances, to friends and allies before becoming a closely knitted family. 

Rivalry among siblings and in-laws

The drama is not only about the perfect match between the lead couple, but also their families. Lee Kangsuk and Ha Dana’s families were major parts of their lives, influencing their growth and maturity and building their characters. They were different, the Lees and the Has, with different habits, behavior, values, ambitions and outlook in life. As always, with family and love, there will be happiness and sorrow, love and heartache, quarrels and make-up but true love will finally emerged.

So heartwarming is this perfect match which centred not only of the couple, but also among and between their families in “Family Honor”. Yes, family matters!

完美的搭配：家族之爱

每个人的品味因喜好不同而会不一样。我是一个不喜欢有纠纷的人，尤其是在我的个人空间里。我认为政治，欺负和不信任已经使世界变得非常难受，因此观看电视剧时，不希望增加负面情绪，因为这毕竟是娱乐消遣。

当前播出的电视剧尤其是韩剧，并不吸引我。好多都非常的夸张，主题非常此相似，似乎像作家协调有统一的主题，或者内容太负性，给观众施加压力和引起反社会情绪，对目前令人遗憾的世界状况，真的是不需要的。

It’s all about relationships

这就是为什么我怀念传统的家庭电视剧具有的价值观，以及为什么一直以来最喜欢的施厚君的电视剧就是“家门的荣光”。这部电视剧，展现了人际关系的完美搭配。人们如何互动，生活和合作。在成为紧密联系的家族之前，是如何从陌生人和竞争者成长为熟人，朋友和盟友。

这不仅是一对男女之间的完美搭配，而且还涉及他们的家族。 家族对李江石和何丹雅的生活中是非常重要的。家族影响了他们的成长和成熟并树立了自己的性格。他们家族显然不同。 李家和何家拥有不同的习惯，行为，价值观，抱负和人生观。经常家族和爱情会带来幸福和悲伤，爱护和心痛，争吵和化解，但是家族的真爱最终会显示。

如此令人心动的完美的搭配！在“家门的荣光”中，不权是恋人的搭配，还有家族之间的搭配。是的，家族的缺很重要！
