Tv show digest
Mama the Idol is a show about former idols who left the mainstream because of childbirth or to take care of their children. This show is kind of a second chance they are getting to show their worth again and prove themselves. All the participants of the show are mothers who were once renowned and acclaimed idols but had to leave music because of childbirth or to take care of their children. As things became difficult for them at that time and they couldn’t focus on both things, they had to leave music, but this show gives them another chance to perform as an idol again.
The feel-good part
It never felt like the idols performing were others. They have the same energy they used to have back in their time and are as good as present-day idols. They are outstanding at singing, and dancing, work hard for every performance, and always look for improvement. Everything feels good because it is heartwarming to see these idols performing again. Even after childbirth and this long break, they perform like they never stopped and manage to surprise you with every new performance.
Another thing is that it breaks the stereotype that a mother cannot be an idol. All the participants in the show are mothers, and they literally nail every performance. They know what they are doing, and it is all very awesome.
The disappointing factor
There is no such disappointing factor in the show. Everything is fantastic and up to the mark.
In-depth analysis
As a whole, this show is not your everyday idol reality TV show; it is beyond that. It breaks the stereotype that women cannot perform after childbirth. It focuses on how women struggle to keep up their identities after going through so many changes. It is not easy for them, but they still try to give excellent performances. Male idols can continue with their career after having a child, but it is difficult for female idols to do so because their bodies go through so many changes. But these six idols break all the threads that society has wrapped them up in and come up on the stage again to live their dream. This show gave a huge shout-out to all the mothers in the world and inspires them to keep following their dreams because age is just a number and it’s never too late to start living your life again the way you want to.
Star power
Kahi, Park Jung-ah, Byul, Yang Eun-Ji, Hyun Jyu-ni, and Sunye are the six idols who participated in the show and debuted as an idol group. They are all magnificent and very hard-working. They don’t fail to give a mind-blowing performance in every episode.
Overall opinion
Overall, it is an outstanding idol show with something new, and fresh. The performances are good in each and every episode, and it is worth giving a try.
