It's Like a Bean in a Pod (2022)

Good vs Evil vs Annoying

This is a typical daily drama where the main pairing battle through adversities left and right before they can be together. What is clear here are the battle lines drawn: The good include Gwangjun, Yongi, the grandpa, Sejun, Mirinae , and others. The evil ones are High Heels and Haemi and their minions. The annoying ones are the mother of Haemi and the stepmother of Yongi. I am curious to find out the evil secrets that High Heels is hiding _ I hope she gets punished in the end. Overall, good acting by the cast, although those two mothers are really over the top annoying.

Crazy mothers assembled! If you aren't afraid of these lunatics feel free to watch.

The cute little baby was a better adult that any number of Mothers and grandmothers in this drama.

The reason the characters in this drama bothered me so much might be because before this I watched It's beautiful Now. It had only one messed up family, in comparison, this drama had a 5-6 decent people and one of them was Eun Ho, not a main character! The other were little Mirae, ML's grandfather, Eun Ho's sister, FL, and ML. Yeah, that sums it up.

The best part about this drama are the actors, even when you don't like the characters, you have to admire the skills that went into brining that character to life, so much so that we as audience have a reaction, be it a positive one or negative one.

> For most part, FL tried to stand up for herself and I liked that she was able to say enough was enough. But the sad thing was she was treated poorly, slapped, and people kept pouring stuff on her to humiliate her. It lacks a lot creativity on the writers. Who are people who like shit like that? It is the part of the drama I tend to skip.
> The ML was pretty decent by these long-running drama standards. The one thing that bothered in the final arc was the lack of communication, thinking that you know better and making decision unilaterally when they are together. Start communicating people!
> High heels is a bloody criminal, why bother asking for forgiveness when you are only asking because it would make everyone look at you poorly?
> Haemi's redemption arc? I couldn't care less. She harassed and bullied a woman who was only trying to earn a living, especially a woman with a child, a cousin of hers add to that! She had no professionalism when it came to her job. The whole time she was busy sabotaging the FL, which also affected the compnay she was working at! She and the full-time employee who lied should have been the one fired.
> The Kim family didn't deserve a daughter-in-law like FL, she was always too good for them. Like she said, she had become their fav punching bag. It was sad to watch when every time she was wronged by her in-laws, she was the one had to pull herself together and cater to them as if she was guilty.

If someone made a cute edit a movie of this highlighting the best of couples moments, I might watch that. But there's no way, I would ever rewatch this.
