One of the best book adaptions!

Season 2 started off sad and dramatically with the beginning of WW2 and Isak’s death. Isak is one of my favorite characters in this drama and Steve Noh really played it amazingly well!!! He was the perfect Isak!!! I wished more lovey dovey scenes of him and Sunja but sadly he was in prison and then died so we didn’t get to see him that much 😢🥺🥺

The war scenes were just incredibly terrifying… Watching this drama made me even more grateful for the privileges I enjoyed in my life. It also made me realize how much Korea has been through so far. How much and long they suffered but how fast they managed to rise up and beyond their former perpetrators (Japan)…

The highlight of this season for me was little Mozasu 😂😂😂 He was SO CUTEEEE!!! That little child actor was something else!! 😂 He for sure has a bright future ahead of him 🫶🏻

Tbh this season had a few more boring scenes than the season before. I personally thought Yoseb’s days at the factory before the bomb hit were a bit unnecessary. They did nothing to the plot really. They should have kept it short…

Also Solomon’s path is really worrying… I don’t remember it being so sketchy. I thought he was involved with gambling in the book 🤔🤔🤔

All in all, season 2 seemed to be a bit more accurate to the book.
I wonder if a season 3 will be out soon since this story is not finished 🥺
