  status and wealth, both wives fall in love with him, and he reciprocates their feelings equally. The drama features a relatively unknown cast, but the actors deliver convincing performances. While the script has some plot holes and unresolved storylines, the ending is satisfactory. "The Son-In-Law" may not appeal to viewers who prefer a traditional one-to-one romantic relationship, but its poetic nature and interesting plot make it worth watching.
