I’ve watched over a hundred Korean TV dramas besides this one. On a scale of 1 to 10, 5 being average, this was a 2 at best. Lousy script. Mis-cast roles. The good looking guy gets stuck with a plain-Jane bawler, who cried over a hundred times during the 50 episode run. I got to the point where I found myself HATING her. The daughter of the mom who pushed her to become an actress was a little better, but not much.
Anyone who watched only this might get the wrong idea about Koreans, thinking they are cry-babies. Should have been titled “Cry, Mom” instead.
Looks like another great drama ,can hardly wait for online with english subs.Aloha
