Is Eun Su's friend angling for her terminally ill husband? It couldn't be. I've felt that vibe the last two times she visited the hospital. I wouldn't be surprised. It's like they say, it is always the one closest to you that hurts you the most.
Kdrama writers can't seem write anything without this absurd love triangle bs. It's so tired and worn out. Thanks…
So true. And what they call love triangle isn't even that. A love triangle is a situation involving three people, usually where one person must choose between two potential love interests, so this one person has feelings for both parties who also have feelings for them and they are in conflict with their feelings. It's not a situation where there are two people who have feelings for each other but there is also a third person who has feelings for one of them but they don't have feelings for them. That's a third wheeler, an unrequited love. It irks the heck out of me. That said, I do like this drama.
I hate how complicated the relationships in this drama are; I love me some Jeong Hyeon, though, and hope Yeong Rye realizes how precious he is before she wastes any more time on someone who clearly showed her time and time again he isn't interested in her romantically. I thought Jong Hui was shitty in the way she broke up with Jae Pil. Yes, she was minding Yeong Rye's feelings the same way Yeong Rye was minding hers, but no one seemed to be minding Jae Pil's feelings. He deserved better.
I expected the drama to explain how and why Kim Se Hee became what she became by showing how severe a childhood she had, and while tragic, it does not absolve her, let alone excuse her choices. She deliberately allowed her suffering to transform her into a vile individual. This is starkly contrasted by the surviving defects choices, a dehumanizing term she chose herself to define them. They endured equally, if not more, traumatic lives, yet did not take the path she did, not even close. This proves that life is a series of choices, and Se Hee chose evil.
She and her clients chose to treat children as mere transactions, to be acquired and "refunded" at will. The buyers' ignorance regarding the true meaning of "refunding" is irrelevant; the very act of purchasing a "perfect" child, a concept that is monstrous in itself, speaks volumes. It exposes them all as despicable, selfish individuals who commodified human life for societal status gain. Basically, for themselves. Death is too lenient a sentence for these people. A fitting punishment would be to subject them to the same fate they inflicted upon their victims, especially Kim Se Hee. They should face a life of servitude and suffering in a place utterly devoid of humanity, not a prison with three square meals and human rights. Only by experiencing the pain they caused could they begin to comprehend the full scope of their damage, if such comprehension is even possible.
Brilliant drama -- well written, acted, directed -- kudos to all. Short but very, very sweet.
When will Korea wake up and realize the nonsense standards and cancel mentality forced on celebrities just because they chose a public life shouldn't be a measure of how they live their lives. Why does their private lives matter so little. Please stop, just because you helped make them famous doesn't mean you own them.
Jeon Yeo-been's Performance as Lee Daeum is a revelation. While I initially tuned into this drama for the undeniable talent of Namkoong Min, a long-time favorite, Jeon Yeo-been truly commands attention. Her portrayal of Lee Daeum is nothing short of breathtaking. I'll admit, I had my reservations. In past dramas, Jeon Yeo-been's performances sometimes leaned towards the exaggerated for my taste. However, her heartfelt interpretation of Lee Daeum has won me over. Her acting is simply phenomenal, and she is unequivocally stealing the show. This role is a testament to her incredible range and deserves significant recognition, at least an award.
I am in love with Lee Seol ever since I first saw her in Less Than Evil with Shin Ha Kyun whom I am also in love with lol... cannot wait for this one with my one of my top 10 favorite actor Namkoong Min https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/ourmovie
