A little bit of everything in 4 short hours
This very short drama was kind of an emotional ride, the quality is not very good but in 4 short episodes we are invited to join in on a painful journey of regret, guilt, more guilt, competitiveness, sorrow, more guild, more regret and allot of running. That even mad me shed a tear or two. The drama has a pretty realistic feel to it. It deals pretty well with issues such as inequality, entitlement, loss and friendship. In a way that differs from the whole little guy against the system we are used to seeing.
This story is actually about a boy, who was given way to much responsibility for his older sibling. The way their relationship is portrayed in the beginning did bother me abit but at the same time, I guess it made it more real showing how children who are given responsibility to care for siblings may react, and the importance of making everybody feel valuable. this portrayal made way for the rest of the drama, and was the foundation for the scene that built up a tear in my eye.
It was allot of fun to see two top actors in the beginning of there career while Yoo Yeon Seok acting skills have developed quite a bit Park Min Young's acting was already great, she delivers a great performance showing a range of emotions along side her bright caring ray of sunshine between some honestly depressing scenes. Baek Sung Hyun did a pretty good job with his character as well.
I can say that though Park Min Young had relatively little screen time, her character and scenes where the best parts of this drama and had the best lines, opening up, and calling out people for their behaviour and starting points:
" How can someone like you understand... even when you where a kid you never understood what it felt like to loose"
All in all not a masterpiece but definitely worth those four hours if you can put up with the low quality production, there is also some pretty scenery.
