My Unfamiliar Family

My Unfamiliar Family (Korean: (아는 건 별로 없지만) 가족입니다) is a South Korean television series that aired on the cable network tvN from June 1 to July 21, 2020. The drama, directed by Kwon Young-Il and written by Kim Eun-Jung, examines the shifting dynamics within a family as members grow older, drift apart, and form new bonds with people outside their immediate kin.

Plot Synopsis

The series explores the premise that as individuals age, they often spend less time with their families, leading to a sense of estrangement. As family members pursue their own lives, secrets and misunderstandings accumulate, causing them to feel like strangers. Conversely, the show highlights how people outside the family unit can sometimes become as close as blood relatives through shared experiences and emotional intimacy. The narrative centers on the Kim family, focusing on the second daughter, Kim Eun-Hee (played by Han Ye-Ri), who is portrayed as a tender and trusting individual working in the publishing industry.

Production and Broadcast

The series was broadcast on tvN in the Monday and Tuesday 21:00 time slot. It premiered following the conclusion of the drama Mothers and was succeeded by Record of Youth on September 7, 2020. The cast features several prominent actors, including Jung Jin-Young, Won Mi-Kyung, Choo Ja-Hyun, Han Ye-Ri, and Shin Jae-Ha, who portray the members of the central Kim family.
