How cool is this drama? After finding out about the director and screenwriter, then you understand. The director is Kim Kyu-Tae, whose drama Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo won many awards. He also directed the Korean drama: It's Ok, This is Love which produced no less awards.

This isn't the first time he's worked with screenwriter, No Hee-Kyung. Drama Korea: Drama: That Winter, The Wind Blows (2013) starring Zo In-Sung and Song Hye-Kyo, not only made many viewers mesmerize, they also won many awards from the 2013 SBS Drama Awards and 2013 (49th) BaekSang Arts Awards

The director and scenario writer are awesome, especially the cast. Scattered with award-winning actors/actresses, this Korean drama: Our Blues is a means of competing in acting. Starting from Lee Byung-Hun, a class A actor who often paces on the silver screen, to senior actresses such as Kim Hye-Ja's grandmother and Ko Du-Shim's grandmother who filled their profiles with strings of awards.

So what's lacking? Almost nothing. The audience is lulled by the beauty of Jeju Island, the blue sea, the magic of sunrise and sunset, kicking music, beautiful cinematography to a neat plot twist, makes me think Korean drama: Our Blues will win the BaekSang Arts Awards, a prestigious award for the South Korean art industry that has held since 1965.

Unfortunately, my hopes did not come true. Or not yet? Because the 2022 (49th) BaekSang Arts Awards takes place in May 2022, while the Korean drama: Our Blues airs April – June 2022.

Regardless, I love this drama. Still haven't moved on from the acting of the players. Like Cha Seung-Won (who has a series of awards too) plays the loser, Choi Han-Su. I can't believe it, he's the arrogant Woo Hwi-Cheol in the Korean drama: A Korean Odyssey.

I also come to understand why Shin Min-A is not side by side with her boyfriend, Kim Woo-Bin (are you still dating or not?) in this drama, because it really doesn't fit the scenario.

Oops, I forgot, there's a weakness in this drama, namely Kim Woo Bin's cute scenes are taken over time, hehehe.??

Shin Min-A, who has mental health problems, fits perfectly side by side with Lee Byung-Hun who plays a sloppy person who hates his mother but loves death for Min Seon-A (Shin Min-A).

Now the scene of Lee Byung-Hun who plays this traveling salesman makes me laugh. As well as shaking heads. Playing the temperamental Lee Dong-Seok, Lee Byung-Hun must act as a grumpy salesman, hater of his mother, as well as a sincere lover of Min Seon-A (Shin Min-A).

Sincere love stories indeed color Korean dramas: Our Blues, between lovers, between brothers and sisters, friends, and friends. Regardless of age, old and young strengthen each other. Sincere love that has been hit by many trials, and is woven back thanks to the threads of love that never disappear. Because the following quote is so true:

Whatever happens, think positively

The typhoon has passed over the sea

Today, we must cheer up
