Parents, you can't choose them. When I watched this show, I remembered how lucky I was with the parents I have.

So what exactly is the show about? I mean you have read the synopsis, and maybe would like to have another push towards why you should watch this incredible show. And believe me, when I say incredible I mean that in every way.

The show is most definitely about the relationship between a mother and a child, and how the two main characters tackle the trials they are given during the course of the show. So what makes it so good?

Maybe you could have guessed it, the character interactions. Ashide Mana and Matsuyuki Yasuko deliver a great performance regarding the interactions between a mother and a daughter. Their trials will make you laugh, cry or just smile weirdly because it's so cute *ahum*.

I mainly stated the two main characters here, but the supporting cast is great as well.

The story progresses in a well-written manner while never forgetting the realism they need to maintain during the course of the show. The story doesn't let you play ball, they throw the ball at you from the get-go, and you will keep following the ball until it finally reaches your glove. The pacing in the show may be slow to some, however incredibly fitting due to the shows Slice-of-life nature.

Because of the well-written storyline and the great acting, you will start rooting for the main two characters hoping they will get that final happy ending, because as you could’ve guessed, the story isn’t a light one. It’s about acceptance, Overcoming trials without giving up, family and so much more.

So why do you need to watch this? The well written story combined with great actors deliver a touching emotional story. This show will stay with you for a long time. It is one of those shows that makes you ponder for a bit while remembering the show, coming to the conclusion that it was a great watch.

So I heartily recommend it to anyone who doesn’t dislike slice-of-life shows. Because if you do watch it, you are in for a treat.

Have you ever felt not wanted? Did you feel like you have no self-worth? Did you try very hard on things, only for it to fail?

This is the story of Dan Bi. At one point in our lives we all want to run away. Run away from the responsibillities in our lives. And Dan Bi did just that.

I get it, the drama appeals for many due to the sweet romance. It's also really cute. But the one thing that striked me the most about this drama, was beneath all the romance there was a deeper issue.

Proving yourself in todays society is a necessity, and not all are equally good at it. Does that mean you have no worth to the world? Splash Splash LOVE addresses this with a subtle answer to the viewer.

This drama is as much about Romance as it is in resolving Da-Bi's issue about feeling incompetent. The show complements this by making her feel useful and finding people who appreciate her worth. It's about appreciating what you have, and making the best of it.

Yoon Doo Joon and Kim Seul Gi deliver a great performance, they have some great chemistry and it sure shows during the airing of the episodes. The amount of episodes complement this drama really well. Instead of dragging it out, they keep it to the point. Because of this you will find it hard to get bored during the two episodes.

So should you watch this drama? I'd say yes. The sweet story along with self-worth discory makes this for a great watch. Considering it's only two episodes long makes it more attractive too.

If you like romance, you should definitely watch this, because you are in for a treat if you do.
