I was expecting something more

This is one show that I am not sure how I want to rate it because objectively, it's a well-made show. But, subjectively, it just didn't resonate with me like I thought it would. So, I am going to quickly list my pros and cons about the show and put more thoughts below.

PROS
- Outstanding acting performances from cast 
- A promising premise for a show 
- Loved the humor included to offset the more emotional moments 
- The episodes didn't drag and the series didn't overstay it's welcome (in other words, it was the right amount of episodes/time length)

CONS
- To me, the story wasn't as strong as I thought it would be 
- There was an unnecessary character in the series that I feel wasn't needed at all
- The development of the story line involving the "villains" wasn't fleshed out enough for me and the mother's justification for the treatment of her son didn't work for me either. It only made me more frustrated at her. The development of the healing arc between the son and mother felt disjointed to me even after finding out everything at the end of the series. The villagers didn't really interest me either but they made me laugh. I'll give them that.

Lee Do Hyun and the twins were truly the highlight of this series for me if I am being honest. If they weren't included, I don't feel like I would rate the show what it is now. Every time they were on the screen, they put a smile on my face due to their acting, delivery, and overall performance in the show. 

The show's premise is promising focusing on the healing journey between the mother and son and I was excited from watching the trailer so I went into this drama very excited. The first few episodes grabbed me but from then on, I started to feel meh about the story lines and the direction that the show was going in. I wanted this show to have that spark that grabbed me and left me wanting more but for most of the series run, I wasn't really feeling it.

I could see why people do love this show immensely because it includes some outstanding performances from well-known actors, has some teachable life lessons, and like I said earlier, is an objectively well-made show but it makes me sad to be more of a negative nancy and say that I didn't enjoy it like I thought I would but can appreciate what it aimed to do.
