Must see for its nostalgic value

For anyone who grew up in the pre-internet, analog era with music cassettes and cassette tape recorders, and families huddling around the TV waiting to watch that weekly show, this is a MUST see. It will take you down memory lane, no matter which country you grew up in. The 80s were all the same, not just in S.Korea.

An interplay of neighbourly relationships, this drama harks back to an age where people in a neighhourhood helped each out, shared lives, shared food, even shared wealth amongst each other.

The last scene is a true tear jerker, as you realize, just as in your own life, that that bitter sweet era is over, changed forever by the modern, internet driven world, where a nobody like me can write a review online about a foreign show, an era that is never to be seen again.
