AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE.
Truly goosebumps and brilliantly well-written!
Each and every single character was absolutely perfectly fitted... every emotion, expression, and tone... Cannot expression how I enjoyed every moment of this series.
Truly profound and deep... Hit every portion related to family and love... what it mean to really grow up through hardships, face discrimination based on your gender... finance... Also the resilience and survival of just LIFE. Not just because they are poor - but each decision made to move forward, to LIVE ON. T
Really did a great job of portraying the livelihoods and history of the haenyos as well! Was really interesting to learn more about that sector.
I definitely bawled my eyes out in every episode if not, just fell to the floor with so much pain, gratitude, and just epiphany within my own life LOL. I think the Yangbeom and Geum Myung scenes hit me the hardest... What an excruciating scene. YET, as sad as so many scenes were, there were so many encouraging scenes - really pushing people to LIVE, to KEEP GOING. That the hardships will continue to come but as time passes, so will GOOD days, GOOD people, etc.
Really also made me question, whether I can get married and choose this sort of love? Will I be able to overcome these circumstances (I understand it's a drama but a lot of it can be related/realistic in terms of losing a child, financial insufficiencies, education, sacrifice... the list goes on) and how I would be able to handle certain scenarios. Such an endless list of great life lessons.
But overall, would HIGHLY recommend. It's a show that's just way more about love and just the amazing sacrifices each person made, decisions per situations, and the narrative concept was a nice touch as well.
May a beautiful and unwavering love such as Gwansik + Aesun find me T_____T !!!!!
