SISTERHOOD, MYSTERY, AND FEMINISM SHINE IN LITTLE WOMEN
This drama reminded me a lot of the hollywood film movie Little Women, especially with its themes of feminism and how women try to stand and strong in a tough world. It has the same focus on sisterhood but told in a darker, more thriller-like way.
The three sisters are written with clear differences, and I found myself understanding each of their behaviors and choices. In Joo’s vulnerability and longing for a better life, In Kyung’s stubborn yet idealistic pursuit of justice, and In Hye’s quiet independence all felt distinct but interconnected. Their contrasting personalities and imperfections made the drama more complex, and realistic.
I also really liked the chemistry between In Joo and Do Il. Their connection was subtle but strong, and I appreciated that their relationship was left open ended, it gave a sense of possibility without forcing a conclusion.
The blue orchid subplot was another highlight for me. It added mystery and symbolism that blended well with the overall narrative, making the story more intriguing. On top of that, the cinematography was beautiful and the ost/score/soundtracks are so good that I immediately listened them all after watching.
The story can feel a little messy at times, with multiple twists that sometimes overlap more than they should. But even with that, it is still worth watching for its themes, performances, and artistic execution.
Overall, Little Women is not perfect, but it’s a captivating drama that reimagines sisterhood, ambition, and survival in a unique way.
