“Do you know Ahjumma? In the end you and I, we changed fate.” The start of this drama is quite dark but by episode three it starts getting into the swing of things. The story gripped me and I really wanted to see what would happen with the scenario. You wouldn’t think that a show like this could be fun, but at times it was. It’s a bit repetitive with Soo Hyun losing her shit over and over again and just going into a panic and not thinking except in mother mode. Her character isn’t bad though. When she’s not flailing around, or even when she is, she does know how to use her brains and can act fast. She gets into a few fights and has to go tooth and nail to survive but she can wiggle her way out of a mess. Not surprising, there are three men in Soo Hyun’s life who are protecting her in some capacity. And who are ready to fight for her in their own spheres. The other annoying thing is that whenever a revelation is about to be revealed they get interrupted. That is such a lame plot device. I liked seeing Soo Hyun’s attitude towards Young Gyu change. The show gets intense towards the end. Dong Chan There is no romance but you can see the way Dong Chan feels about his Ahjumma. He never says her name, I don’t think. “You’re wild just like your mother.” Dong Chan is as nice guy. I like how tough as nails he’s supposed to be. And then he disguises his kindness in his rough way by saying sarcastic things but he makes it so much more cheery. I love how natural singing is in Korean dramas. Dong Chan’s singing was definitely a highlight. I liked seeing a bit of conflict between older and steady characters. There’s a really intense scene when Dong Chan intervenes between Soo Hyun and her husband and you can see the complexity of the situation. A bit sad to see the beautiful Kim Yu Bi acting like a brat. But she also has an overgenerous spirit that can be charming when it’s not grating. She fights with her mother a lot, but mainly because she’s afraid and in awe of her. “I also want to become a person like you.” It was really interesting to see Ji Hoon’s parenting contrasted and compared to Soo Hyun’s throughout the drama. Initially, he is obviously not in a panic and he doesn’t suffer over worry of his daughter because he has no idea. He is also the “good cop” when it comes to parenting. But things change. It’s also fascinating to see how Soo Hyun comes to distrust her husband and trust Dong Chang. Even as Dong Chan is calling her ahjummah, he’s the one that can so naturally hold her and be her support. The ending? Mind blowing.
