I loved it

Honestly, this drama had me hooked from the beginning. The drama was a beautiful. The chemistry between the leads was electric, and I couldn’t help but root for them every step of the way. The emotions felt real, and the characters—especially the protagonist—felt like people you could relate to on a deeper level. There was a certain rawness in the way they navigated their lives that kept me engaged.

What truly stood out was the relationship between the protagonist and her parents. It was one of those bonds that pulls at your heartstrings, especially with the challenges they face together. However, by the end, things started feeling a little... predictable. When the mother’s health took a turn, I could see it coming from a mile away. It definitely packed an emotional punch, but it didn’t have the shock factor I was hoping for. The drama’s earlier moments had such an edge to them, and this turn felt a bit like it was relying on a familiar trope.

Another thing that left me wanting more was the storyline with the ex-boyfriend. I honestly thought there was so much potential there. His role in the protagonist’s life was intriguing, but I felt like the show didn’t explore it enough. He had this complexity that I wished the drama dug deeper into. I kept wondering what could have been if they spent a bit more time on his character.

Overall, The Best Thing is still a really solid watch, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that it could’ve been even more powerful with a few more unexpected twists and more development of certain side stories. Still, it’s a great mix of emotions, love, and life lessons.
