If you liked Go Ahead, you will love this!

I had zero expectations going into this but was taken in for the craziest emotional ride of my life. If there was one thing this drama did well in, it was in its portrayal and exploration of the inner workings of the human psyche.

Subtle moments such as the one at the beginning where the mother offers to stay in the master bedroom to look after her daughter and the son-in-law quickly agreeing to it while she exhibited the slightest look of disappointment, was a moment done so perfectly, I knew I would be completely captivated by this meticulous masterpiece from that moment onwards.

Don't get me started on the unexpected but amazing dynamics between the mother and the gym junkie, or the unlikely but completely believable chemistry of the gym junkie and female lead herself.

If you enjoy watching dramas that showcase the intricacies of human emotions and how unique circumstances can bring about changes to reveal the core essence of human nature, or mould them to evolve into a completely different individual from their prior being, then this drama was made for you. (It reminds me of the Japanese drama 'Soredemo, Ikiteyuku' in that the portrayals of the characters and their motives and emotions were often gray, not always black and white)

The only criticism I have for this drama was that it was too short. They could have honestly had another 2-5 episodes and I would have been completely satisfied. Due to this, they did not give the same weight to the gym junkies past, nor allow for us to see more of the evolution of the other characters. Either way though, the ending is definitely not unsatisfactory, and it will be an easy modern-day drama to recommend to new cdrama enthusiasts, alongside The Long Night, Reset, Nothing but Thirty, and Fake It Till You Make it.

Warning: Beautiful but equally depressing ending theme and clip will be there to haunt you and elicit your tears if the episode you happen to be on doesn't do that itself.
