Mom and dad spy hijinks for Sweet Savage Family’s first teaser
by girlfriday
The first teaser is out for MBC’s new mob family comedy Sweet Savage Family, the drama spinoff of the comedy film franchise Marrying the Mafia. It stars Jung Jun-ho as a mob boss who runs a whole city’s underground, but gets treated like a second-class citizen in his own home. They’re definitely going for a goofy, laugh-out-loud tone with this one: The first teaser introduces the leading characters in parodies of Mission: Impossible, Catwoman, and The Godfather, complete with cat.
The light human comedy follows Jung Jun-ho’s struggles to run a gang and be a good father and husband at the same time, and hilariously it’s the family part that he has the most trouble with. At home he gets nagged, ignored, or laughed at, and serves as the family garbage disposal on most days.
Moon Jung-hee is his smart, capable wife who takes care of their troublemaker teens and a cranky mother-in-law, and basically keeps their family together. She isn’t happy about her husband’s criminal life and volunteers in her free time to try and make up for any bad he’s doing.
Jung Woong-in is the best friend who’s always been second best at everything, and is determined to take over when his chance comes. I do love a comical Jung Woong-in, and I’m happy to see him doing something light after Yong-pal. Yoo Sun is his ex-wife who also happens to be both guys’ first love, and her reappearance in town will throw the two families into a tizzy.
It’s namely because Yoo Sun moves back to her hometown with her 18-year-old daughter Minah (of Girl’s Day), and Minah will start dating Jung Jun-ho’s son Lee Minhyuk (of BtoB). Not exactly Romeo and Juliet, but friends-turned-rival dads and first-love-versus-wife moms will suddenly find themselves in an awkward situation, to say the least.
I don’t think it’s going to be a slick drama, but I like the silly antics in the teaser and the comical vibe of the whole setup. Mostly, I think watching Jung Jun-ho and Jung Woong-in running around making asses of themselves will be reward enough for tuning in.
Sweet Savage Family follows She Was Pretty on Wednesdays and Thursdays beginning November 18.

HAHAHAHA... oh that's funny.
But it would be nice to go onto soompi and not have screams of " kiss, kiss, kiss or asking for abs".
Will they show abs though?

Apparently you haven't seen "Last Scandal of My Life." I doubt you would write this off so quickly.

Yes, I saw that. It was awesome. Full of heart and hilarious too. There was supposed to be season 2 but the female lead committed suicide. That's so tragic......
But I digress. This looks like fun!! Although the young idols leaves much to be desired but it's the older casts who will carry the show. How awesome is that? I've had enough of sub-standard idols in lead roles.
Can't wait!

You may not have liked the trailer but trailers can be deceiving too.
It is better to watch 2 eps and then decide whether it is watchable or not!

I don't usually do comedy, but this sounds pretty entertaining. I'll try the first couple of episodes, at least XD
Also, Jung Woong-in's face. DYING. I still see him as the killer from I can Hear Your Voice ?

+1! Last Scandal reunion in a witty, slapstick comedy is fantastic. I really, really need some good laughs and I wouldn't mind a com-rom instead of a rom-com nowadays!!!

Yes they are reunited after all this years so happy for this, this is not everyone or idols kind of types dramas they can't appreciated how good this actors are, this cast is pure gold the main leads are so good, can't wait to see this, I'm happy that Jung Jun-ho is finally the lead again I missed him alot, so tired of the pretty faces that can't act. I'm so ready for this.

Besides Mission Impossible, Entrapment-Catwoman - there's a nod at the iconic white-dress-leg-crossing scene from Basic Instinct.

Jung Joon-ho and Jung Woong-in should never ever separate. They are the best ahjusshi bromance ever in k-entertainment. They are indeed the Jung Brothers. Don't even start regarding Last Scandal being the most repeat-worthy drama in dramaland. It is THE BEST.
Jung Joon-ho looks very beautiful. I have always been in-love with him since 2005. Yes, talkin' about his hotness in Princess Lulu. (And Laaaaaast Scandal. Daebak!)

Those who can't access the video, just forward towards the ending of She was pretty episode 12 and 13 in Viki, and it plays at the end.
Anyway, what a boring drama it looks like. I was expecting a great drama after She was pretty.
It seems like after She was pretty, my Wed-Thurs will be boring. I'm not watching any other Wed-Thurs slot dramas. (Maybe I will give Village a go??).
Looking forward to Oh my Venus and Reply 1988 though.

I am really enjoying this show since it started - many LOL moments.
also - I just finished watching Ojakyo Brothers where Jung Woong In as the hapless oldest brother in that series - he was good!
Now that i see folks mentioning Last Scandal of my Life - i need to go check it out! Always love a good comedy!
