A magnificently realistic drama.
May be I would have never watch this among all the hyped airing dramas but thankfully I did. To my utter astonishment I enjoyed this more than any other airing dramas which started with Oh My Baby.
The story writing, representation and organization of scenes were excellently done. The main subject matter was “baby”. Everything is related and revolved around the one particular issue. A serious issue about artificial insemination has been raised, how society views an unmarried woman to have IVF, what the law of the country states and how to deal with all these struggles along with the subfertiility issue. The biological clock is ticking for the female lead. So how she should approach to have a baby of her own? There were large mountains she needed to overcome just to achieve her goals. No miracles no surprise occurred to the main protagonist Jang Ha Ri.
The whole point of this story is to give a generic view on infertility, subfertility and fertility. All sorts of characters were there single father, single mother, married couple struggling to have kids, married couple who don’t want to have kids, working woman with kids, mother who took break from work for kids but want to return to work life badly, woman who gave up kids for pursuing her career and also woman who gave up work to care for kids. It is a portrayal of today’s society – where we stand with our perception of having children with or without partner, with or without marriage.
The protagonists never gave up nor did they bawl their eyes out all day long due to the failure of not getting what they want. They faced booms and troughs of their life - enjoying their romance, working like normal people and at the same time going through their own troublesome life sportingly. Isn’t this the real life?
Another interesting fact was the patience and resilience of a mother of an early 40s daughter. She might not have agreed to whatever her daughter did or want but she understood her and supports her all along. The serious conversation between the mother and daughter seemed light hearted but was deeply edifying.
The story is also focused on the fight of a magazine company to keep their business amidst the sea of “online” era. It was appreciable to show the practical approach of keeping the company or not and how the female lead went out to open her own one.
Oh My Baby is very aesthetically presented story with laughter, tears, comedy, practicality, rationality and romance. All the characters depicted have given appropriate approach to a same issue from their individual perspective in a different way is just what can be seen in our surroundings.
I have grown huge respect for the scriptwriters, directors and ensembles of this drama. It’s been so long I have seen such a beautiful drama with a realistic approach of a particular subject matter. The OSTs are also wonderful. Jang Na Ra and Go Joon were quite natural with their acting. They are my favourite from now on. I appreciate and like every scenes every story portrayed in this drama.
