"Bargain" is a drama unlike anything I've ever watched, because we have no hero or heroine, it's a survival story with people who don't trust anyone and will do everything to survive. Basically it is a more realistic version of what it would be like if an apocalypse really happened, without any embellishment, the human being in its crude version possible: each for itself.Hyung Soo is the perfect example of this, someone who can survive any situation. He hired a call girl, literally a virgin girl, but was eventually sold in an organ auction, which was interrupted by an earthquake and to complete, we find that he is a police officer. More disgusting and corrupt than that ... Impossible, even though he tries to deceive Joo Young saying that he is in a secret police investigation, but of course this is a lie. He took any opportunity possible and he allied with anyone who was going to help him escape.
Joo Young is a very interesting character, but I liked Keuk Ryul the most. I was impressed with his ability to survive. It happened everything with this boy and he was alive in the end. HAHA'
The open ending is a pity, because I don't think there will be a sequel to the history, it only ends up showing that the earthquake was not isolated for the building, but a large disaster.

"A Good Supper" is a family drama about Gyung Soo, a young man who finds a lost girl and ends up raising her as his own, naming her Young Shin. The two develop a strong bond. Gyung Soo runs a restaurant and after Young Shin grows up, she helps him by working there, making the restaurant a home for many people.At the beginning of the drama, Young Shin was very much in love with Jung Hoon, she even thought about running away with him, but she didn't do it because of Da Jung. When Jung Hoon came back, their relationship almost became real, but it stopped again because of Da Jung. But then, out of nowhere, Young Shin's feelings change and she starts rejecting Jung Hoon, even when there are no obstacles to them... and then she says that she loves Gyung Soo and that it has always been like this. I understand her feelings, since Gyung Soo raised her and was the person she depended on her entire life, but since their love couldn't happen, she stays in that misery all the time, saying that she will stay by his side, just looking at him, but Gyung Soo ends up with a terminal illness and then Young Shin only decides to marry Jung Hoon because Gyung Soo forces her to, because she was going to kill herself after Gyung Soo died!
Da Jung is a much more interesting character than Young Shin. I had so much fun with Da Jung's freakouts, from a calm girl, she gained an attitude (not a very good one) and caused such funny scandals and because of that, Da Jung realized who was the person who truly loved her and would be by her side even if the whole world hated her: Oh Bok.
This couple is so cute, I was rooting for them from the beginning, but Da Jung insisted on wanting Jung Hoon and I didn't understand why.
Gyung Soo is really the poor guy in this drama, he basically just suffered during these 120 episodes. He was the person who most deserved to have his happy ending, even though we knew that it was more than impossible, since the way they wrote the story didn't let his love work out.
How could we accept him being with Young Shin, since he raised her since she was a child?! It's so weird, even though I wanted to root for them, the situation was too awkward. They could have developed it differently, having Young Shin be raised by the other people in the village and having her come to the restaurant for dinner every night. Even with the age difference between them, it would have been possible to put a relationship in a very natural way, with the years passing by.
I left the worst character for last, the most absurd and the one that makes no sense at all: Choi Sook Jung. This woman committed several crimes during the drama, including murder and some attempts at it. She lied, deceived her husband her entire life, abandoned her son and after the poor guy had amnesia, tried to deceive him that she was a good mother... despite all this, how the hell did she not end up in jail?! How is this possible?
I can't even describe in words what it was like to watch this drama. Honestly, it seems like the scriptwriter of this story must be bipolar, because the pace and focus change so suddenly and abruptly that it becomes difficult to follow and understand what will happen next. In my opinion, the first episodes were the best, the characters shouldn't have grown up and remained children forever, since the best part of the drama is in those moments. It got to a point where the story is too sad to bear, only bad things happen, it makes you depressed.

"Amor Fati" is a drama about an ordinary housewife named Yeon Hee, whose life is completely transformed when she finds out that her husband is cheating on her and wants a divorce so she can marry his mistress. In a funny twist of fate, Yeon Hee ends up meeting Jae Kyeong several times, without having any idea that he is married to Yu Na, the woman her husband is seeing.Yeon Hee is framed, forced to leave home, and discovers that she has cancer. This is a turning point for her, to finally take action and learn to take care of herself, she accepts the divorce and ends up becoming Jae Kyeong's neighbor. Speaking of Jae Kyeong, he is a really good person. Not just anyone would raise a child knowing that it is not theirs, and he did so by never telling Ha Neul the truth. The two develop a friendship, supporting each other through difficult times, and end up falling in love in the process. The big problem with this is that there is no chemistry whatsoever between Yeon Hee and Jae Kyung as a couple, there is not even a kiss scene... they functioned more as friends.
Now the situation is completely different with Yoon Chul and Min Jung, they steal the show from the main couple, they are so cute together, I wish the drama had shown more of them, especially since Yoon Chul was very careful to think about Woo Joo's feelings too when he decided to start a relationship with Min Jung.
One of the great positive points of the drama is Seo Woo, she is an incredible character. While everyone was against Yeon Hee, Seo Woo remained a faithful daughter and every opportunity she had, she tried to defend her mother and this girl suffered a lot in this drama too. In addition to finding out that her father is a traitorous bastard, she also finds out that she is pregnant with her fiance's baby, who later reveals that he is gay.
I also really liked that the drama focuses a lot on Ha Neul and Woo Joo and their relationship with their mothers. There is even a concern in showing them growing up, going through puberty and understanding some things that were very young before. They learn to value their mothers more, since Yeon Hee and Min Jung are not Ha Neul and Woo Joo's biological mothers, but they accepted them in their hearts and that has never changed, at any time. Being a mother does not mean giving birth, but rather caring.
Yu Na as a villain ends up not being that impressive, because if we analyze it properly, we end up feeling sorry for her. She really wasn't to blame for falling in love with a married man, the problem was everything she did to get Jun Ho and keep his company, all the crimes she committed and all the people she hurt in the process, including her own son Ha Neul, but I liked that in the end they gave the character a redemption. When we found out she was pregnant, I thought she would have a happy ending with Jun Ho, despite all the wrong things she had done, but Yu Na understood that she had to pay for her crimes, so she asked Ha Neul and Yeon Hee for forgiveness and then left with her son, to start a new life away from all that. It was the best possible ending for the character.
In conclusion, the drama is good, the only problem is the boring romance, but if you ignore that and pay more attention to the rest, it's worth checking out.

"Cinderella and The Four Knights" is a modern Cinderella story.Ha Won is a poor girl who lives with her stepmother and stepsister, who constantly mistreat her. Her father is always away from home for work and when he shows up, he doesn't even acknowledge Ha Won's presence, almost as if he despises her. Even so, the girl is happy, working in several different places to earn money to go to college. One day her life changes completely when she meets Hyun Min, who pays her to pretend to be his fake fiancee.
After that, Hyun Min's grandfather hires her to work in his house to help his grandchildren become better people. It is at this moment that Ha Won enters her own fairy tale, living with four princes or knights: the rich and spoiled Hyun Min, the grumpy and cold Ji Woon, the lonely musician Seo Woo and their grandfather's secretary Yoon Sung. During the drama, Ha Won has to complete some missions and only if she succeeds will she be able to continue living in the house. This thing about the missions reminded me a lot of the drama "Atashinchi no Danshi".
The development of the drama is great, it reminded me a lot of "Boys Over Flowers", mainly because of Ha Won's personality. I love main characters like that, strong women who don't care about appearances and have their own attitude. Ha Won is very captivating. The romance between her and Ji Woon is so cute, it was really fun to see their relationship change from hate to friendship and then to love. The couple has great chemistry on screen. Of course there would be opposition from the family to the relationship between the two, just because their grandfather hired her to work in the house, it doesn't mean he would accept her as his grandson's girlfriend. Thank goodness in the end he ended up giving in, when he discovered that there was a deeper connection between the two, Ha Won and Ji Woon's mothers met, in fact Ha Won's mother tried to save Ji Woon's mother and ended up dying too.
At first I thought the drama would continue with a romance between her and Hyun Min, but all of this was just a kick start to the real romance that was about to emerge and by having this crush on Ha Won, Hyun Min was also able to understand and accept his true feelings for Hye Ji. Hyun Min's confession, in which he is rejected by Ha Won and for the whole world to see, was really a reality check for him, but it was so fun! HAHAHA'
If you are a fan of kdramas, this is a drama that you need to watch. It is a Cinderella story, yes, but even with the cliches it is an incredible experience. It is not the story of a girl falling in love with a rich boy and changing her life, but of a girl who was looking for someone to love her, who would be by her side so she would not be alone anymore and isn't that what we all want?
The soundtrack is wonderful, "For You", "My Romeo" and "How To Find Love" are very addictive songs <3

"Remarriage and Desires" is a drama about Hye Seung, a woman who discovers that her husband is cheating on her with Yoo Hui. The problem is that the story is not that simple. Yoo Hui seduced Hye Seung's husband on purpose, to use him and discard him whenever she wanted, and she does exactly that, blaming him for all the crimes she committed. Hye Seung's husband ends up killing himself and she decides to punish those who destroyed her family. The idea behind the drama is very good, Hye Seung wants revenge against Yoo Hui, she finds out that Yoo Hui is interested in Hyung Ju, so Hye Seung decides to get closer to him, to ruin Yoo Hui's plans, but that's the problem, Hye Seung kept saying that she had her own character, that she had no ulterior motives when getting closer to Hyung Ju, but that's partly a lie, because her purpose wasn't to seduce him, it was to tell the truth about Yoo Hui, but technically she used Hyung Ju in this process.
The problem with the drama is the development, there are only 8 episodes so everything is done very quickly, there wasn't enough time to shape the story properly. It was supposed to be about new weddings and desires, right?! Honestly, I don't know where the desires went, since everyone was super apathetic, there's no strength, impact in the story, there's no energy of revenge... it's all very boring. Not even the "romance" manages to captivate attention, especially because I didn't see anything romantic.
The relationship between Hye Seung and Hyung Ju is weird, they only saw each other a few times and it was clear that they created a connection because of their children and the traumas they suffered in their marriages because of betrayals, but the story didn't give them enough time to develop a relationship between them. That wedding at the end?! It was ridiculous.
This drama a complete disappointment, I don't even know how it was possible to make a story like this, with such a magnificent cast. Kim Hee Sun was wasted in this production.

"Anna" tells the story of Yu Mi, who has always been ashamed of being poor, so she created the habit of inventing lies for everyone, creating a fantasy life that is the complete opposite of her real life. When she becomes an adult, Yu Mi starts working as a maid in the house of Hyun Joo, a woman who has everything she wanted but doesn't know the value of it, she is spoiled, selfish, arrogant and rude. One day, Yu Mi can't stand being treated like this anymore and decides to run away, stealing money and Hyun Joo's US passport, assuming the identity of Lee Anna.Yu Mi gains recognition with the name Anna and ends up meeting Ji Hoon, a rich young man with a seemingly good heart. The two get married. The problem is that Ji Hoon is not the person Yu Mi thought he was and to make matters worse, Hyun Joo returns only to blackmail Yu Mi.
Who would have thought that Ji Hoon was a complete psychopath, who knew from the beginning about Yu Mi's lies, but wanted to use her, just as she was using him. Ji Hoon killed Hyun Joo because she was in his way and he did it to his ex-wife too. The final scene of the drama, with Yu Mi burning the car with her purse and killing her husband is simply fantastic. No comments for her expression in that last moment. I don't condemn Yu Mi for what she did, I know that it all started with her lies, but life wasn't fair for her either, it seemed like everything was going wrong for her and let's face it, this Hyun Joo was a bitch and Yu Mi didn't ruin her life at all, in fact she made the name Lee Anna, at least, have some value.
A very surprising drama, there are only six episodes, but they managed to bring a complete story, full of twists and turns and impeccable performances.
We see a totally different side of Suzy, in this drama she finally showed the incredible and serious actress that I always knew she was. Until now Suzy has only done romantic dramas, which are great by the way and all my favorites, but they have never really shown her ability as an actress.

"The King of Tears, Lee Bang Won" tells the story of Lee Bang Won's journey to become one of the most famous kings in South Korean history.Seong Gye is a well-known and beloved general who eventually takes power from the tyrant king who was ruling Goryeo. However, he never had any interest in becoming king. He really just wanted to make the world a better place. However, the situation is different with his children, especially Lee Bang Won, who, after his father's victory, begins to have a great desire for power.
Lee Bang Won always used the excuse that they needed to change the world for the people, but at the same time, he didn't care about the sacrifices that were made or how many people might die in the process. The person who started this flame in him was his wife, Lady Min. She was always a person who yearned for more. She wasn't content with what she had and thought her husband deserved more. Technically, she was the one who started it all. After having a taste for power, Bang Won could not stop until he became the king and killed anyone who stood in his way.
The turning point of the couple is after they achieved the goal they wanted so much, putting Bang Won on the throne, their problems begin after that. Lady Min thought they would walk together, as they always did, but Bang Won had no desire to share power with her, in fact he liked to make it clear that she was just another subordinate.
Lady Min is a badass, what an incredible character, she is the example of a woman who does not submit to anyone, she knows what she wants and goes after it. She fought hard for her husband, so he could fulfill his dream of being king, but she did it thinking of herself too, of her children, she just could not imagine how Bang Won would change after becoming king.
Even though she was the incredibly strong woman that she was, there was no way she could handle all of this. How humiliated can a person be? Is there a limit? Her family was destroyed, her own son caused the death of her brothers, but the worst was how Bang Won treated her, he broke her, humiliating her with all the concubines, the false accusations... she got to the point of begging Bang Won to stop and still he didn't give in. Eventually Lady Min could no longer bear to stay in the palace and left, to try to be free from it all. She died surrounded by her children, but without the presence of Bang Won, as she did not forgive him until her last moments.
The production of the drama is exceptional. It's a story that has been developed before, but none of them managed to reach this level, it really keeps you hooked from start to finish. The acting is impeccable, especially Joo Sang Wook, who in my opinion, gave his best role so far.

"Casting a Spell to You" is a romantic comedy centered on the relationship between Ji Woo and Jung Hee.Ji Woo suffered a trauma as a teenager and he can't sleep without the help of medication and lots of drinking, because when night falls, he remembers the moments when his friend died. When he meets Jung Hee, she is the first person who tells him that what happened wasn't his fault, Ji Woo fell in love and she helped him get better. There is a similar situation with Jung Hee, she has a trauma with alcohol because her father died from drinking too much, but working at Ji Woo's bar and the different way he sells cocktails, as an experience, not to get drunk, this helped her overcome a little of the distaste she had for drinks.
The story was supposed to have a romantic foursome, but poor Ye Ji was basically there as a supporting character, because what we actually have is a love triangle between Ji Woo, Jung Hee and Young Kwang. I really liked Young Kwang, but he had his chance with Jung Hee, he preferred to remain as friends all these years and when he finally decided to confess his feelings, she was already in love with Ji Woo. The drama really took the issue of them fighting over her seriously, until there is literally a scene where they are fighting and accidentally end up hitting Jung Hee. HAHAHA'
What I would change is the actor who played Songsong: Yasuo Namekawa, also known as Kangnam, since he is not Thai and that is very obvious, I don't understand why they didn't cast a Thai actor to play the role, I'm sure there are several talented ones in South Korea and his mannerisms were very forced, almost too childish... I couldn't really like the character.
This drama was a big positive surprise. I wasn't expecting anything when I started watching it, but the story is light, fun, easy to watch and at the same time it portrays serious issues, such as alcoholism and post-traumatic stress and the couple is really good.

"A Man In A Veil" tells the story of Tae Poong, a man who after an accident lives with the mentality of a child, this happened when he thought he was saving Yoo Jung, his childhood friend and his first love, but in fact it was her sister Yoo Ra.The sisters' family works for Tae Poong's family, but the way they both treat him is completely different. Even after Tae Poong's change, Yoo Jung has always treated him the same way. The only thing Yoo Ra feels is envy of Tae Poong's money. Yoo Ra accidentally ends up pregnant and then makes an evil scheme to deceive Tae Poong and his mother, saying that she is pregnant with his child. This hurts Yoo Jung's feelings a lot, who even though it doesn't show, liked Tae Poong as a man. Seo Jun is a rich man who only thinks about himself, he meets Yoo Jung and falls in love with her almost instantly and tries to do everything to make her fall in love with him too.
Even though Yoo Ra gets what she wants, she doesn't stop at that. She frames Tae Poong's mother for a crime, who ends up dying in jail. After his mother's death, Tae Poong goes through another trauma and recovers his mental abilities. In fact, he becomes a more intelligent person than normal and from that moment on, he begins his plan of revenge against everyone who destroyed his life.
Years pass, Yoo Jung has become a mother, she raises Yoo Ra's son as her own and continues to search for Tae Poong, who has now assumed a new identity: Min Hyuk. Even though he meets Yoo Jung again, he doesn't tell her the truth. Yoo Ra marries Seo Jun, but obviously the two don't have a happy life together.
Yoo Jung and Tae Poong are good on paper, but in reality there was a lack of development in the couple, in their relationship, everything ended up being very shallow. To be honest, I think Yoo Jung was a much better match for Seo Jun. Speaking of him, Seo Jun was the most wronged person in this drama, he ended up married to Yoo Ra, found out that his mother tried to kill his father's ex-girlfriend, fell in love with his half-sister and died. How is it possible for so much to happen to the same person?
Why did they need to kill Dong Ho?! I thought that his death would at least serve to make Yoo Jung seek revenge, but she only pretended to do so and in fact she only used Seo Jun's feelings and in the end, she did nothing. Also, about Yoo Jung being Ji Sook's daughter. Why was that necessary?! It didn't add anything important, especially since it was basically introduced at the end of the drama, it only served to make Seo Jun even more pathetic. Yoo Ra, who was supposed to be the villain of the story, simply disappeared in the last 20 episodes and only appeared occasionally, even though it all started with her. They shouldn't have lost the character's direction, the bitch only appeared to kill poor Seo Jun.
The drama had a lot of potential, but I don't really know what happened, the story got lost at a certain point and what could have been great ended up falling into the same old thing.

"Story of Yanxi Palace" follows life inside a palace harem.Ying Luo is a simple maid, but she has a lot of skills, which makes her stand out from the other girls, who are jealous of her and always try to frame her. At one point, she meets the emperor and Fu Heng, two men who will mark her life forever.
There is a purpose behind Ying Luo's arrival at the palace. Her sister was a maid there who ended up dying unexpectedly and there were rumors that Fu Heng was to blame for this, so Ying Luo ends up getting close to the empress, who is Fu Heng's sister, to get information about her sister's death.
The emperor did not like Ying Luo's closeness to the empress, he was suspicious of the girl's intentions, thinking that she did it for personal gain. As Ying Luo becomes like a personal maid to the empress, the two basically fight like children every chance they get, and it is from this that the relationship between Ying Luo and the emperor is formed. Ying Luo is an incredible character, she is not afraid to speak her mind and this is one of the reasons why the emperor ends up falling in love with her, without even realizing it.
The relationship between Ying Luo and the Emperor is very funny, the two seem like two children fighting, there were moments of love and hate, because she was the only person who didn't treat him as superior, but rather as an ordinary person.
The romance plays an important part in the story, but for me, what really caught my attention was the relationship between Ying Luo and the empress. The two created such a strong bond that you could tell when the empress died, a part of Ying Luo died too. She was like a mother and a sister to Ying Luo, helping her whenever possible and I even think she would have let Fu Heng marry Ying Luo, but with Fu Heng's decision to marry Er Qing to save Ying Luo, there was no chance of that happening.
Unlike other dramas that portray the harem of a palace, "Story of Yanxi Palace" is a more entertaining story. There are conflicts, conspiracies, and plots between the concubines for power, but this is done in a lighter way, because where else could we see an emperor basically being ordered around by his concubine? The one who had the real power in this story was always Ying Luo.

"Welcome To Wedding Hell" is a drama about Na Eun and Joon Hyung's journey in the process of preparing for their wedding and how it is nothing like the fairy tale that the movies make it out to be.The story is captivating and since it only has 12 episodes, before you know it, it's over. I loved how it shows reality, the whole engagement process and the step-by-step process until the wedding actually happens. At times, it really did seem like hell, since everything went wrong.
From the meeting of the families, the preparation for the wedding, including the location, the money that will be spent, the gifts, the house they will live in, the choice of furniture, all of this really destroys any resemblance of a fairy tale and the idea that it is easy to get married, as if there were no need for any preparation and you just have to show up at the church, but in reality a LOT happens in the meantime!
The scene where they are taking the photos, everything is very tense and weird between the two, since they have just gotten out of a big fight with their mothers, it really wasn't the time to do something romantic, but honestly I didn't expect Na Eun to say that she wanted to break up with Joon Hyung and that she couldn't go through with the wedding. Thank goodness they realized that no relationship is perfect and the fights are a good sign, since they care enough to keep trying to solve the problems.
Min Woo and Hui Seon, steal the show at every moment <3

It's a drama about Ji Eun, a woman who is torn between two men: Se Hoon and Jung Min.Ji Eun comes from a wealthy family, but she falls in love with Se Hoon. Against her family's wishes, Ji Eun marries Se Hoon, but reality breaks the girl's fairy tale, since when they live together, the two begin to see how different they are. Se Hoon can't live with Ji Eun's family, with her corrupt father and alcoholic mother, but the moment that completely changes their relationship is when in a moment of anger, Se Hoon pushes Ji Eun down the stairs and she ends up losing her baby.
After the loss of her father, Ji Eun's family went bankrupt and in order to survive, she ended up becoming a completely different person. It was at this point in her life that she met Jung Min, Jung In's twin brother, who was her fiance. Se Hoon returns to Ji Eun's life 10 years later, now a successful man. Se Hoon returns with the intention of revenge against Ji Eun and her family, but over time his feelings for her return, but Ji Eun is in love with Jung Min and going through the same situation she was in with Se Hoon, only now with Jung Min's family against her.
We can't forget Mi Ran, our villain and bitch of the story, who is obsessed with Se Hoon.
The romance between Ji Eun and Sung Min is cute, the two have good chemistry on screen. He was the person who helped her when she needed it most, who was by her side. Even when they broke up, you could tell that they would end up together in the end. But I have to say that the whole situation with Jung Min's stalker/secretary was very weird. She killed someone, tried to frame Ji Eun and then kidnapped her.
In conclusion, it's a very realistic drama, especially the character Lee Ji Eun. She is an ambitious woman who is not afraid to go after what she wants, but who has been hurt a lot in her life and has to deal with these traumas in her daily life. Even though I liked her romance with Jung Min, I didn't like how he never trusted her completely, it's very similar to how Se Hoon treated her.
I also didn't like the way the drama handled Se Hoon's character. When he returns in the story, he became a supporting character and didn't even try to win Ji Eun back, which seemed to be the purpose of his return. In the end he ended up with Mi Ran, the crazy woman who pretended to be paralyzed when she could walk, broke an aquarium and walked barefoot on the broken glass. He was an important character in the story, he deserved a better ending than this.
The development is good, but it should have ended in episode 116, they would have tied up all the loose ends in the story and it would have been a better ending, but they decided to add more episodes unnecessarily and it served absolutely no purpose.

"Oh! My Emperor" is a time travel story about a girl named Fei Fei who enters a strange world ruled by the horoscope. There, she becomes involved with the emperor and it turns into love.I started watching it because of Zhao Lu Si, but the drama is too silly, childish, it's hard to take anything that happens seriously, and it's a 2018 drama. If it were an old drama, I would consider it, but for something new, the quality is very poor. The only interesting thing that wasn't developed well is that the entire society is ruled by the constellations.

"Big Mouth" is a drama about a lawyer named Chang Ho. He is an intelligent man, but he has no luck with his cases, always losing, and one day he receives a job offer he can't refuse. The problem is that everything was set up and Chang Ho was framed for being a famous drug dealer and wanted, which led to him being arrested and having to spend time in prison with criminals. Chang Ho then has a brilliant plan to survive in this place: he assumes the identity of the criminal "Big Mouse", the same person who is framing him, and transforms the prison, taking control..This was a great drama, it really surprised me! Although the romance is not the focus, Chang Ho and Mi Ho's relationship is a strong point of the story. Seeing how Mi Ho believed in Chang Ho until the end was beautiful to see, even with everything against him, and that's why the ending hurts so much, they couldn't have a happy ending. Mi Ho dies, but Chang Ho takes revenge in the end, making Do Ha die the same way he killed Mi Ho, a very fair retribution.
Lee Jong Suk is an incredible actor, I don't know how people don't recognize his impeccable work. The way Chang Ho's expressions changed in each situation was impressive, even scary.

"Mask Girl" follows Mo Mi, an ordinary woman who works in an office. She has inferiority issues and thinks she's ugly. To escape reality, Mo Mi starts doing a live broadcast on the internet wearing a mask that goes viral and makes her famous. Oh Nam is a coworker of hers who starts to become obsessed with Mo Mi since he knows her true identity.To be honest, I expected something different from this drama; I really didn't think it would be a sad story. Initially, I thought Mo Mi would be a murderer, but in the end, she's just a poor girl who got caught in a bad situation. How can anyone blame her for what happened? Oh Nam was a pervert who raped her and he was the one who killed that man in the motel. Oh Nam ruined her life, not the other way around like her crazy mother thinks.
After the plastic surgery, Mo Mi was happy with Chun Ae, but then a new man comes along and ruins everything again. I guess the moral of the story is that all men suck. HAHAHAHA'
It's a good production, the three women who play Mo Mi are great: Lee Han Byel, Nana and Go Hyun Jung.
