Moms burdens
Love: Track series continues to bring emotional and diverse stories about love. Kimchi is used as a metaphor for tradition, and the drama begins when that tradition is broken. As a person of tradition myself, I usually wouldn't like this kind of story, but here it is done well, with respect and understanding.The main character is the mother, and she carries the weight of many issues, both her own and her son's. She is played by Kim Sun-young, who is certainly one of the best supporting actresses in Korean cinema. She is always a breath of fresh air, and here she takes on the main role, delivering a strong performance as a troubled mom, portraying both seriousness and fragility. I think I liked this drama mostly because of her, as she successfully conveys the emotions of so many mothers around the world.

From the mother's POV this was the most real and painful reaction considering the traditional way of thinking this was brutal but realistically true.
I love the way it ended, I actually feel sorry for the mother, agree or disagree with me I believe her struggles are bigger than his.
Not one of my favourite stories but Kim Sun Young was spectacular and brilliant here that I'd give it a higher rate than it actually deserves imo.
