I will start this off by saying I truly enjoyed the first 4 season of this show and was excited once season 5 was released.
During the first episode if the 5th season I could already feel something off about the show. It didn't feel like the normal atmosphere is presented and a lot of the storyline felt rushed. I didn't actually realize the series was cencelled and wouldn't be getting 6th season so when it watched the 5th season not knowing it would be the end.
After watching the last episode family and friends i was puzzled as to why so much was packed into the episode and at the same time, poorly executed. Everything seemed rushed in this season but the last episode felt even more so rushed.
Kimchee all the sudden had a desire to learn about his father who walked out on him even though I can't recall him expressing any desire throughout the entire series. I don't really even remember much conversation about his dather period. The last episode saw shannon an jung talking about a game show marriage /engagement which really made shannon made and then all the sudden she wants to split for no real reason. Jung talks to his parents about revitalizing the store out of nowhere and then all the sudden the Kim's are ready to retire. Seriously none of this made sense. Jared's character was completely ignored this entire season including the connection between him an janet at the end of the 4th season. So many things where left unanswered and new questions arose with no hopes of getting an answer. No indication of any characters future or the store's future
In my opinion, this was a completely terrible series ended on par with lost and Game of Thrones. My guess is once the show was known to be cancelled the writers / directors weren't interested in anything other than finishing up filming and moving on. Such a shame as this was a great clean tv series the whole family could watch together and enjoy. Now its 4 seasons of a good show with a terrible chapter. I was looking forward to owning the bluray set but I will never rewatch this series knowing how terribly it ended.
