Baek Hee Has Returned (2016)

After a really long Chinese historical drama I found Baek Hee Returns. Baek Hee Returns is a heartwarming story about facing your past and not running away from mistakes. I loved the story, but because it was so short I felt the timelines were rushed and all over the place.
The Good: This is a great mini-series to get away from a long drama! There is lots of comedy and it hits on serious issues. The cast was really good, I believed all of the characters were who they were playing and Kim Sung Oh was astonishing! There are some predictable plot twists, but there are also some really unexpected plot turns that really make things interesting. And best of all there is a happy ending!
The Bad: The majority of the story surrounds why Baek Hee left and the misconceptions regarding her leaving, so there are lots of flash backs. It took me a while to figure out whose story this was, and who was the main character in the story. The plot moves very fast and initially it is unclear if this is a family drama or a rom-com. There were tons of loose strings at the end and after I fell in love with the characters, I really wanted to know more.
Verdict: I was shocked at how much I liked this drama. The cast was spectacular and really shone through in a story that could have been mediocre. While the story line wasn’t extraordinary the issues touched on were important and I had lots of feels watching the characters come to terms with each other. Keep in mind the story is super short so there are lots of strings hanging; but use your imagination.

This short series is more like a movie than a drama but I liked it. It is cute, mysterious, a little heartbreaking but with a sweet ending and endearing characters. I loved the cast and the acting was deabak all round. I was totally engrossed by the story and i didn't forward anything which is always a plus and happens rarely for me. The series is well written and I really liked the cinematography.
This is one of the best short dramas I have come across, however it does not have much of a rewatch value.
If you are ever in the mood for something short but interesting and gratifying then this is the one for you.

I watched this drama accidentally because I forgot that My Lawyer has finished ="> but I felt no regret for watching this drama ^_^

This is a very funny refreshing short drama. When I watch it I recalled the "Mamma Mia" movie for the same feeling it's given but different accentuation. While Mamma Mia speaks from the daughter's side, Baek Hee speaks from the mother's side. Comical acting, bright colors costume, and ocean view, as it tells about Baek Hee return to her home town in a small island outside the mainland, gives a refreshing feeling when watching this drama.

Tells about Baek Hee who has to face her wretched-humiliating-unclear past when she comebacks to her hometown with her husband and a daughter. All the people that used to attached to her try to rebuilt the relationship they had before. Three of them are men who used to be closed to her suspected that they are the real father to Baek Hee's daughter. The story becomes funny when Baek Hee, with helps from her friends, try to straighten the problems include finding the truth about the scandal video that made her runaway before.

I felt this story is being finished hastily. Kind of regret seeing jin ji hee's character as Baek Hee's daughter were not being explored more..but that's okay. It doesn't changed the main story anyway.

The story about old gang reunited, loyalty,trust and teamwork among peers..Even though it just a simple plot drama, because it plotted very neat and supported by a good acting from the majority of the casts it becomes recommendable as a funny refreshing short drama to watch among all kdrama.

This was an interesting short drama that seemed to buck the trend a bit for dramas. At four episodes, it's just basically a long movie. The characters were engaging and relatable and there was just enough to tell a proper story.

I loved all the ajusshis - they were all adorable as they tried to care for and protect Ok Hee, each thinking she could possibly be his daughter. And not just for the sake of her possibly being his child, but for the friendship he shared with her mother, Baek Hee. Baek Hee gained sympathy from me as the story progressed. The girl playing the daughter, Ok Hee, was a standout in this show and I believe she has a bright future as an actress. I enjoy Kim Sung Oh in his many character roles, and this one was no exception. I'm also fond of Chae Dae Chul.

I didn't really notice the music, so can't comment.

This was a good choice for when you are crunched on time and want to squeeze something in. I was not disappointed in it at all, and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it.
