Delightful, Entertaining, Funny, Refreshing, Relevant

See it if You enjoy a humorous and heartfelt exploration of the Korean immigrant experience. Beautifully written and acted.

Don't see it if As others have mentioned, the play does unfold as if it was a tv sitcom. Sometimes I heard the laugh track in my head. Still very enjoyable

Funny, Refreshing, Heartwarming, Touching

See it if you want to really laugh out loud and be genuinely touched by a dysfunctional Korean family despite the clichés and stereotypes depicted!

Don't see it if you can't put aside politically/racially incorrect stereotypes to get to the heart of this extremely funny, moving and well-acted play!

Absorbing, Cliched, Entertaining

See it if you want a fun night of theater. Typical immigrant themes and jokes, but the play is very sweet and the acting is solid. Cool set too.

Don't see it if you are looking for something avant garde.
