Mother (2018)

Going into this drama, I was unsure of how good it would be, as I generally am not a fan of child acting. All the acting was fantastic however, and every episode never failed to tug at my heart. I was so emotional watching this drama, and I could not wait for each episode to come out. Very binge-worthy, all around a great drama. I would 100% recommend this to people, especially if you like something that will stay with you for a long time. It was a drama that didn't require romance, as the deep connection between the mother and child was enough to bring tears. Such an amazing piece of filmogrpahy...

To me, Mother is one of the greatest dramas I've ever watched. It was a compelling show that attracted me from the beginning, and my attention only ended after the credits rolled for the last episode. It is a harmony of amazing acting, music, and a story that I found to be so touching. The characters were all so rich, and it was such a blast learning about all of them throughout this show. Their motivations, interests, and mannerisms were so well captured in this show that I understood everyone fairly well by the end of this show. The child actor was the best, as she displayed so much depth and emotions with her acting. Moving on, the story of this drama was able to utilize these characters in such a touching. It was able to weave all these characters into quite frankly an amazing story that intrigued me the whole way through. I was so touched by everyone in this show, and the amazing script helped to increase my appreciation. Finally, the music was so nice. I enjoyed listening to it, and it helped to set up scenes in this drama.

Overall, this is one of my most favorite dramas of all time. I will be obviously re-watching this masterpiece, and I hope you will give it a shot!

An exploration about what it means to be a mother

This show does something special. It goes beyond just telling a story, but it shows you what it means to be a mother and to have a mother. This is one of the GOATs of TV shows, up there with the likes of Go Ahead and My Mister. This show is a longform essay about mothering and motherhood, and is wonderfully nuanced and poignant in its commentary about social issues. But at the heart of it all, it's about the love story between a lonely woman and a lonely child, how they became mother and daughter to each other, and how they chose each other over and over again.

(I need a Father counterpart now please 🙏)

What it means to be a mother

There's a kind of pain want to start this review by talking about.
I first heard of this kind of pain when I read and watched Margret Atwood is the handmaid's Tale.in her book she talks about akind of pain that is so deep that you laugh. When I read about this I thought how much plain does a person have to be in to laugh instead of instead of cry. That’s the kind of pain this show made me feel. that’s how emotional invested I was in the show.

Kang soo Jin and Kim Hye Na spend 50 days on the run. 50 days as mother and daughter. 50 days as Kim yoon Bok. From the moment soo Jin found hye na in that trash bag outside her house I felt everything. I was in so much pain and when soo Jin and yoon bok are seperated, the pain is so deep that I laugh. I couldn’t stop laughing because we were there. Not almost we were there. And then we hear the sirens. The escape was so close that we touched it and then we hear the sirens. I couldn’t stop laughing and then I couldn’t stop crying.

This show has one thing and one thing only to tell you. Not everyone can be a mother. The courage to risk everything and give up everything for a child, not everyone has that.

An Emotional story of mother and daughter relationship. All the characters are well defined.
The background music at some places are soothing.
The mother (birth as well as adopted as per story) and the child acting stands at every scenes.
Even though the story goes in a slow pace its make viewers to watch it without any hesitation.
This drama not only talks above the love between the mother and daughter ,it also talks about child abuse.


p.s : If you are an emotional person, sit with a tissue box. Every episodes makes you cry.

Such a heart touching ride.

Are you a good mom? how does it take to become a good one? Is it enough to call you a mom just after giving birth? Is your love enough to sustain and nurture your children’s emotions?

This drama is absolutely amazing, beautiful and brilliant. From episode one to the finale, it gives me a roller coaster of emotions. The message is for everyone to know about Child abuse and the aftermath. It really puts you into perspective.

Standing ovation for all the cast. Their acting is beyond amazing. What a breathtaking performances of their characters that will touch you down to your core. I like the twist and turns at every point and how I feel refresh after a good long cry.

Mother" was a kdrama that surely had me crying like a baby... "Some people think that a person can only be a mother if she gives birth to a child from her womb, but a woman becomes a mother when she gives her all and dedicates her life fully to a smaller creature." this was one of the quotes that most touched me in this kdrama, because it just shows the love of a mother, no matter if both share the same blood, because love doesn't come from the blood, but it comes from the heart. Since the family genre is one of my favorite, I thought that would be the reason I would like this show,, but the overall of this entire show had my whole heart for itself, it became without hesitating, one of my favorite kdramas of all times.

I enjoyed this drama so much! I couldn’t wait for each week! Yes it was a touchy subject and yes it involves children and it’s was really sad! The saying was amazing and the girl was so good at acting I hope so goes further and acting and wins an award for this! She was adorable! I really liked the ending even through there was sad parts! I know I will probably rewatch this but I’ll take my time! I cried a lot and it was very heart wrenching! I’m glad on what happened at the bad guy at the end and the bad girl. I am also glad about the little girl talking about why’s happened and why the teacher took her. I’m not sure what I would do in that situation! I liked the main cast a lot applause to the! ????

underrated but so so worthwhile !!

genuinely the best drama i've watched, with every. single. episode exceeding my expectations.
cried multiple times for a lot of of the episodes, laughed a lot, was angry often, shocked, tense but mostly, learnt a LOT of lessons.. this drama has everything and more you'd need.

the synopsis doesn't even encapture half of the drama's charm... from exploring the topics of what it means to be a Mother, it dwells upon other aspects such as adoption, society, abuse, sacrifices, the criminal justice system and so much more. personally, i loved the focus on other characters too, so you will get a chance to go beyond just the main characters, and resonate with everyone else.

the acting is incredible. the plot is well-executed, with not a single boring scene despite it touching upon such a serious concept.

definitely would recommend it, though not any other drama could ever compare. it is so moving and will undoubtedly have a close place in my heart.
