An Ode to Life

A masterpiece, indeed.

I absolutely love how this portrayed the circle of life and included all forms of love.

The moment two people fall in love, a history is made and the possibilities are endless...
From a mother's unconditional love to a daughter's first love. From a couple's passionate love to the children's familial love. From first love to destined love. And how neighbors' love and kindness can build a nurturing community that can be passed on to generations...

Life comes in seasons and there's nothing we can do but live with it. No one is expert at living, after all, we are all living for the first time. The storyline did it so well: how the characters are not perfect, they mess things up and cry about it yet they choose to stand and build up their selves again. They might make mistakes again and that is because they are human. The characters had their highs and lows and because of that we were able to understand them, relate, and root for them.

I am a sucker for anything slice-of-life and this is just perfect. This has got me on pause, reflect, and reevalute my choices in life. I fell in love, laughed, inspired, and definitely cried A LOT.

I have no complaints. Nothing but perfection. Every actor did their best and perfect for their roles. I am 100% sure they will bag awards on this and they deserve everything. If anyone hates this drama, honestly... nobody should trust them.
