With its brilliant acting, true-to-life characters and well-paced plot, the drama "All Is Well" has been a hit with viewers. The drama revolves around the Su family and the relationship and dynamics among the parents and their three children. After the death of the matriarch, the weak and selfish father begins to meddle in his children's lives and makes the most unreasonable requests to them. Who should look after their elderly father and how does the youngest daughter who was not recognized by her parents since her childhood get along with the rest of the family? Many viewers have praised this series for revealing family problems in real life, such as traditional Chinese families' preference for boys over girls, the boomerang generation who live off their parents in their adulthood, and inter-generational conflicts related to caring for the elderly.
