It is a South Korean drama. Drama special season 9. Also known as ‘My Mom’s Third Marriage’. Directed by Kim Young Jin. Screenwriter Jung Mi Hee. It stars Lee yeol Eum, Lee II Hwa, kim Young Ok,Jun Joon Suk, Han In Soo.
It is a story of a mom who thought she knew her daughter & her daughter who can’t understand her mother.
This one liner is about it. But with the Korean director, it blooms into a full story. The mother left her daughter with the grandmother. But the grandmother is forgiving. She did not feel that her daughter was wrong.
The daughter wants revenge but when she starts to fall for the step brother, really, she gets confused. In the future how will they deal with it, is up to you. Open ended.
Senior Lee is a gem. Very rare. He knows she is sick & wants to help her. I found a shade of ‘Contract Marriage’ where Uee chooses to marry a rich guy, another Mr Lee, so that her daughter would have a rich father. I mean, nothing wrong in planning for the future.
Everyone has his , her point of view. The first question, ‘When will you come? After how many nights?’ Her mother had no answer but now, she knows, she answers,’ After 3 nights’. Getting an honest answer is so important!
Lee Yeol Eum as the daughter has an excellent role to showcase her talent. Earlier she was in ‘Nevertheless’, also in drama special ‘Middle School Student A’.
Lee ll Hwa as the mother looks so young. ‘Coffee Prince’, ‘Reply 1997’, ‘Reply 1994’, ‘My Love from the Star’, ‘She was Pretty’, ‘Reply 1988’, ‘Her Private Life’ mother of Ryan Gold, who can forget? ‘ Young Lady & Gentleman’, ‘The King’s affection’.
Kim Young Ok as the grandmother. Her list is unending. ‘The most beautiful goodbye in the world’, ‘Coffee Prince’, ‘Boys Over Flowers’, ‘Birth of a Beauty’, ‘Reply 1988’, ‘Live up to Your Name’, ‘Tempted’, ‘Her Private Life’, ‘Love Alarm’, ‘Love with Flaws’, ‘The King : Eternal Monarch’, ‘Young Lady & Gentleman’, ‘Tomorrow’, ‘King The Land’.
Yun Joon Suk as Mr Lee ‘s younger son. Earlier seen in ‘Reply 1994’.
The drama ends. Not the end I would like, but then we cannot have everything!
