It Started Okay....

I have so much to say about this show, most of it being bad, but I do give it props for being the first drama to get me this heated in a long time. The concept of Goodbye to Goodbye was lovely: two women find solace in each other while they deal with difficult changes in their life. Unfortunately, I was rather disappointed with how they delivered this concept. I will start by saying that the relationship between Junghyo and Yonghee was my favorite part of...well...almost everything this drama had to offer. Their chemistry was beautiful and honestly, the most enjoyable scenes to watch are when they have a heart to heart. I also genuinely enjoyed the fact that although she was unbearable to watch most of the time, they made Seyoung a 3-dimensional character with actual motivations and reasonings for her actions(even if they were irrational). The acting for the most part was okay or sometimes a bit gimmicky. They did what they needed to do and even though I never found myself wowed by the performances(sometimes I was even rolling my eyes at how corny it can get), they weren't disappointing for the most part. Outside of those reasons, everything else was completely frustrating. Oftentimes, the characters would make decisions that were either completely random or out of character. The writing was never consistent and a good example of this is Sangjin being adamant about getting divorced, only to suddenly change his mind once Yonghee finally agrees. The characters constantly had developmental changes that came out of nowhere or would make decisions that would never align with who they are and it drove me crazy. The plot was also rather messy mainly due to pacing. We would either stay on an issue for several episodes, or we would wrap one up within two episodes. I found myself getting aggravated at the constant filler they shoved in in order to make us care about characters who truly added nothing to the plot(and there are a lot of characters *sigh*).I think my biggest disappointment comes from the fact that I had expectations for the show that weren't met, hence the reason why I gave it 5 stars. I was hoping to see two women who coincidentally cross paths rely on one another, but instead, the women knew each other because Junghyo gets impregnated by Minsoo, who happens to be Yonghee's son. This dynamic causes unrealistic and strange interactions and plotlines. I know that kdramas are called DRAMAS for a reason, but I was really expecting to see a more realistic take on young women getting pregnant while they're not married in a misogynistic society and women who have to deal with depression caused by their husband's infidelity. I wish they handled these topics with more care, but perhaps that is just me being picky.
