Cringey Yet Wholesome

Found this drama on Netflix recommendations. I'm not a big fan of purely comedy genre so I'll try keeping it short.
Q and Korics wanted to make their engagement official but pandemic forced them to quarantine under one roof with their families. While staying disagreements between the families aggravate. Q & Korics try to convince them but paranoia also engulfs them. When one of their family members develop COVID-19 symptoms the families stay separately. Though this distance bring their hearts closer. Korics tries to win over Q again and guess what.. their families unite over the same fact.
This drama had typical cringy comedy. A lot of those slapstick moments and some wholesome moments. Though this drama is purely based on comedy but the serious transitions didn't seem out of space. Kathryn and Daniel's references were spot on. The families at first seem to despise each other but as time goes by they face the problems and challenges head on together.
The cast did a good job portraying their characters. Specially Korics & Q's moments were their relation hits the rough patch. Their insecurities seemed relatable. The OSTs were average.
If you're a fan of comedy genre or family drama try watching this. I'll say it again it has a lot of slapstick even lowbrow moments but at the same time some wholesome moments.
