I really resonated with Mirae and Miji switching roles... it's something that we all must have wanted to do whenever we were having a particularly bad day.

Our actors, especially Park Boyoung and Park Jinyoung, killed it! Park Boyoung did such an incredible job playing the twins, and creating such a unique differentation between them. It really shines when she has chemistry with one as one twin and then has abosuktely none when she's the other twin. Many props to her.

And then everyone else around the leads, were just as compelling. The mothers were not typical conflict points, but had their own insecurities that were so real to watch. And the story building up to the episode focusing on our restaurant owner had me deeply reflecting. Each point were meaningfully interwoven that brought out such important life lessons in the end. The first half when everything is settling in is particularly stronger. It did move into the angsty route during the latter half, but fortunately it did not drag it out too long and it didn't feel too overdramatized. I loved that the writer didn't take any easy routes.

The only thing I would've loved more is Mirae's journey. The synopsis had made it seemed like the focus would've been on both of the twins, but Miji definitely held more of the screentime and plot points. That's all to say that I loved all the characters and just wanted more.
