So much better than expected!!!
I loved this drama!!!! I love how it portrays difficult family dynamics and how the certain behaviour of people comes from deep pain, sorrow, grief, or trauma.
In general I love how things got resolved in the end, not in a fairytale, unrealistic way but it showed how you have to put in some effort in order to succeed. Things won’t change for the better just because you want to.
I want to go through each character that I liked or had certain thoughts of:
1. The twins Miji and Mirae:
I definitely liked Miji more and also could relate to her much more. She was bubbly, energetic and loud. She took care of her grandma and did all kinds of jobs and her dark past made me sad and I could also relate to her a bit.
Tbh Mirae seemed like a very pale character next to Miji, almost boring. Throughout the majority of the drama I really disliked her. When the harrassment happened at work, I tried to feel sorry for her but I was annoyed again!!! like WHYYYY did she suggest to forget about what he tried to do???? Idk but that was soooo strange and kinda unrealistic!!! as a woman, if my colleague starts to harrass me I would cancel every contact with that person, even consider leaving the company!!!! And she just wanted to move on like nothing happened??? I got SO mad at her!!!! The only thing I liked about Mirae was her relationship with Han Sejin, the strawberry farmer 😂
Which brings me to the next character!
2. Han Sejin aka the strawberry farmer:
I loved this guy!!! I already saw him in Lovestruck in the City where he plays an author and I already liked him a lot in that drama! He was actually one of my favorites 😂 And hos character in this drama was amazing too!!! Definitely one of my faves!!!
3. Lee Hosu:
I know he is the Male Lead but somehow I liked the Second Male Lead much more, again 😂 Le Hosu was just ok. I felt sorry for him at some parts especially when he was younger. I didn’t like how he treated his mom, so there were some scenes when I got really annoyed with him because I really liked his mom! She was my favorite character! So I was happy when I watched the scene when his mom comes to Seoul and hits him and then they hug and cry and I cried so much in that scene too!!!! 😭😭😭
which brings me to my next character:
4. Bon - Hong aka Hosu’a mom:
I LOVED this woman so much!!!! Everything she said and did was so touching and sweet and I loved her fighting with Ok-hui 😂😂😂 idk if I am biased or not because she is a Reply 1988 actress but I genuinely loved Bonhong so much!!! Her quotes were my favorite 😂
5. Ok-hui aka the twins’ mom:
At the beginning and throughout the whole drama I was SO annoyed with her!! Her talking aggressively ALL THE TIME put me so much on edge!!!! She is mean to everyone literally! To Bon-hong, Miji, her mother, just everyone!!! I got so fed up with her until the scene she cried on the floor with the real Miji and then cried at the hospital in her mother’s lap. Her story was maybe one of the most heartbreaking and although I still dislike her aggressive side, I got to like her in the end…
7. Kim Rosa aka Sangwol:
Her story was one of the most impressive! I cried so much! The way she protected her friend gave me goosebumps!!! When women love and help each other they can move mountains!!! Her story was such a story! I was so happy she got a happy end so quickly! 🥰 It was so heartwarming!
8. Tae-i and his sister:
I cant really say much about his sister, but I really loved Tae-i!!! As a very minor character he was very well done! I would have liked to see more of him!
9. The grandma:
Once again, a drama with a grandma plot can never disappoint!!! One of my favorite Korean words is the one for Grandma, (halmeoni) because some of my favoritr dramas are the ones that have a kind grandma starting (e.g. Start-up).
I would say this is it for the main characters!
I just love this drama and lowkey want a season 2 just to see Mirae get together with Sejin. Also I feel like the twins are both the main characters but it felt more focused on Miji. So I wonder whether there shouldn’t be a part 2 which focuses more on Mirae 😍
