The story of A Model Family revolves around a family that is facing dire financial situations which is leading to many problems and a possible separation. However, the family soon gets involved with the members of a drug cartel and now have to complete missions that will bring them face to face with some deadly situations.

Like most South Korean dramas, this show starts off with an intense scene which is to come later in the show, as Park Dong-ha (Jung Woo) narrates the most common reason for deaths being money. Then we are taken back to days before this scene and are shown what led to Park Dong-ha being buried alive by a member of a drug cartel.

We witness the troubles that are surrounding the protagonist and his desperation to bring money to his family. And when fate brings him to a pile of cash he does not hesitate to take it, even if it meant letting go of his law-abiding role and hiding dead bodies.
As the show proceeds, we see him working for a guy in the drug ring named Gwang Cheol (Park Hee-soon) who wants to level up his position. The show will then take you through twists and turns as the timid man’s separation brings him to situations that are out of the ordinary for someone like him.
The show can be said to be in line with others like Breaking Bad, Ozark, and so on, but the South Korean entertainment industry is known to take things to the next level. And this show could not be left out, which means that you will get on a ride with more thrill and suspense than ever.
The actors and child actors have done a marvelous job in their respective roles and the theme is carried out really well. The same can be said for the cinematography which induces the seriousness of the show in a very beautiful way. The show has definitely done justice to the excitement created by the trailer which makes this a show that you should not miss.
