Kim So Yeon I love you so
Watched this solely for Kim So Yeon and she did not disappoint. What a fantastic performance she gave, she was only 19 years old in this and already a master of her craft. I was always captivated the range of expressions on her face, the changes in her voice as she switched between steely and simpering, the flashes of vulnerability and relatability amidst all the awful behavior. Young Mi was such a well written character as well, someone who became deeply manipulative and resentful and cruelly ambitious, who uses other people to compensate for a neediness born of neglect and abuse. I couldn't get enough of her on my screen. My whole review is about her because nothing else about this drama is particularly interesting (the other characters are bland, the other performances are competent but unremarkable) but this one character and performance are good enough to make the show a worthwhile watch. It was also funny to see the Truck of Doom up to its old tricks as far back as 2000.
