Life beginning, life ending and everything in between.
"Blues" - Feelings of melancholy, sadness or depression.
This drama depicts the ebb and flow of life by giving the viewer a close-up look at all types of relationships. It shows familial love, romantic love, friendship, the relationship between people in a community and the relationship between people who work together.
The drama showcases a strong sense of community, hard work, sincerity and the concept of earning an honest living.
The drama is emotionally rich, and the ensemble cast does an excellent job of conveying their stories; the acting is superbly authentic.
The most profound message in this show is that everyone carries hidden pain and has personal struggles despite their smiles, and that community and human connection have the power to heal these struggles. Through their various struggles the characters realise that life is messy but beautiful and that forgiveness brings its own freedom and peace of mind. The characters are continually growing and evolving, learning new lessons and healing their trauma.
In this drama the characters realise that pain and joy co-exist and that co-existence provides beauty, depth and reason to keep going.
I gave this drama a 7 for the amazing acting. However, I found some story arcs to be overwrought to the point of annoyance and the over emoting of some characters took away the enjoyment of the story. Similarly, some story arcs showcased the bad chemistry of the romantic pairings.
Overall, this is well worth watching for the profoundly human emotional tapestry the story depicts.
