I'm not gonna lie, I'm a huge thriller and suspense dramas fan. For some reason I watched 'Babysitter' just yesteday, even though I've read many good reviews and 7.6 rating looks nice enough for me. I ended it on one evening and I truly love it! Story we're following while watching 'Babysitter' may sound like a cliché. We have a rich family, which hire a young babysitter. Husband can't resist the temptation and fall for her. Wife finds out about it and starts to plan a revenge. That concept is nothing new. What stand out in this drama and really suprised me was that the story is told as an retrospection. In second minute we already know, what's going to happen. I know lots of people hate that solution but I loved how it show us the story in a different light. Drama connected with forbidden affair is not as predictable as we might think. There is lots of plot twist, which make you watch all four episodes in a row and regret there is only four of them. Talking about the characters, 'Babysitter' is showing us, how relative and inconstant relations between people are. A caring and loving husband without thinking involves into an affair, cute and innocent wife turns into woman, who is ruthless and eager to take revenge. I was really impressed how cast showed us emotions that characters contend with. Last but not least, how beautiful was it make! Scenes are really artistic and well shot, but soundtrack made it even better. It reminded me about drama 'White Christmas' and I wasn't wrong, since both dramas were made by director Kim Yong Soo. And both dramas are worth watching. 'Babysitter' was aired because 'Moorim School' was reduced to 16 episodes, but it shoudn't be neglected. Otherwise, it's really interesting and well made drama. I truly recommend watching it.
