This drama wheeled me in and kept my attention so much that before I knew it, it was 1:am, 7 episodes had passed and I didn't really want to let go.... until those two last episodes came in and slightly lowered the score.

The story shows fear. loneliness, depression, vulnerability, family, guilt tucked in with social issues, power, and love a drama that shows people with disabilities as actual humans and not just a the disability. And the idea of motherhood and the human behind the title as imperfect and flawed without being a bad mother for that.

There is are so many emotions in this it could have been overwhelming but it is packeted well with raw honesty, suspense, humour. parallels and just enough twists to keep it interesting without making it to complicated. It also shows a different way to being an actual human than many other dramas that portray disabilities. life in general and motherhood.

The balance of holding back, regret, and taking initiative, for who's sake is portrayed really beautifully in this. Not to mention what wearing someone else's haircut will do to set perspective and make you understand things about not only them but yourself as well.

The acting is spot on, the chemistry is definitely there between all the cast and the pacing was good untill they made.a few meeh turns, my pet peeve of past end present in the same frame, cringe and predictable jokes in the last two episodes. this may be one of few dramas with a healing theme to them that I actually enjoyed without rolling my eyes....
