This is a movie that will re-define your view of what a mother is. Whether it’s sacrificing her own life goals so that her child can achieve great things, or enduring a painful relationship for the sake of the children, Jisuk’s mother is a true example of how far a woman is willing to go to make her children happy.
It is a lesson on appreciating things we take for granted. Most of the time, that is something that we have from the beginning of our lives but never think twice about, because we don’t know any different: most of the time that is our own mother. Jisuk herself largely ignores her mother when she was young, wishing to get away from her family and live elsewhere. When Jisuk learns that her mother endures the beatings from her husband, simply so that her daughter can have a stable home, this is the moment that Jisuk (and the audience) realise just how deep a mother’s love is. The newly found love for her mother increases tenfold when Jisuk also becomes a mother and this is when she truly realises how much she means to her.
This is one very emotional movie so don’t be surprised if you find yourself shedding more than a few tears, especially during the latter half. I advise you have at least two packs of tissue before you begin this movie. Actually, have a third pack, just in case. You won’t forget a movie like this for a long time.
This is a must-see for everyone.

If you lose your mother, don't watch the movie because your heart will bleed a lot 《ಥ_ಥ》
First, it is among the most emotionally resonant films I have ever seen.. Every kid should watch this movie,and learn to respect. We can all relate because of the current "Me,me,me" generation. Overall there is nice lighting throughout which relate to the mood, and setting is nice. Actors did great and I can't find anything to change in this movie. Plot is about stereotypical spoiledish kid that gets embarrassed about her mother, but in the end she put those moments aside and realizes that her mother has cared for her and loved her unconditionally, so she shouldn't be embarrassed but proud. Although this movie is a melodrama it has some happy and funny parts as well. I'm sure no matter where you are from you will definitely enjoy this movie.Was this review helpful to you?
