Drama Digest

Bok Hee, a 30-year-old housewife, has had a difficult upbringing. Her sole source of enjoyment these days is auditing classes at the community center after finishing her day job of selling veggies. Cha Ban, her spouse, hasn’t made matters any easier for her. After blowing their whole wealth on a business, he wanted a divorce after having an affair. Bok Hee, on the other hand, wants her children to grow up in a home with a father, so she continues to defy his demands. One day, she finds that her life has been swapped with that of Ko Sang Ah, the Shining Group’s president and executive director. Now Bok Hee has the life she’s always wanted. Bok Hee becomes the second generation heir of the conglomerate after all the hardships she endured.

The Feel-Good Part

The characters in this story have a lot of potential, yet they remain undeveloped throughout. No one improved as a result of their blunders. Do I believe that will happen with only 12 episodes remaining? No, but if it does, it will be hasty and unconvincing. Jin Ye Sol’s performance, in particular, was horrible. She appears to have two expressions, neither of which is nice, and I’ve grown bored of her frown. She’s the most one-dimensional, idiotic villain ever penned. And, as far as I can tell, there was no true growth in the male protagonist. He and Shim Yi Yeong do not appear to have any sort of convincing chemistry.

The Disappointing Factor

The combination of poor script and average to horrible performance wins this a place on your “Don’t bother” list.

 In-depth Analysis

This drama is about overcoming adversity and starting a new life as a young mother who has had a difficult life becomes the daughter of a chaebol. It’s the narrative of a young mother who, despite her horrible fate, becomes a chaebol daughter in the morning. It appears to be a drama about reminiscing about life and family.

Star Power

The main character (female) is miserable, struggling to see a train disaster. She should divorce her spouse since neither he nor his relatives are willing to assist her with the children.

Overall Opinion

There’s a lot of drama going on right now. Character development is sluggish, and the villain is given complete control of the program. There’s nothing to witness apart from the villain ruining everyone’s lives for their gain while remaining wretched and unhappy. I wish the villain will just jump over a cliff and be done with it.

I’m not sure whether having a bunch of characters act like clowns is the scriptwriter’s version of Slapstick humor. It’s lame and not at all amusing. I am looking forward to seeing it first thing in the morning. I enjoy the character growth, but I wish BH would stop being such a softie and order the leaches to go away.
