It's not a happy one filled with romance, but it's raw, showing the truth, that unfortunately happens to a lot of people. It kind of reminds me of the movie "Silenced".
Good and bad is really blurred in this one, and it makes you think hard about if murder is ever okay.
The beginning is very different from the end but in a good way. We meet this mother and wife, Woo Kyung, who's a child psychologist, working at a children's centre. She appears to have it all, but as the show goes on, the curtain is drawn away, and doors that had previously been kept closed are opened, shaking her whole reality. You really fell for Woo Kyung in a lot of ways. There are moments where you don't fully understand her actions, but I guess that's because she too doesn't understand herself. People are complicated.
Then we have Ji Heon, our hot-headed detective. At first, he comes off as this really tough guy, with a dark past, but he really isn't much different from most detectives in drama-land. He's one of the leads, but we don't really know much about him throughout the whole show, except for a few things, which in some ways adds to the show. However, I would've liked to know a bit more about him and his past.
Cha Hak Yeon as Eun Ho really showed his abilities as an actor in this one, and he was probably one of my favourite characters of the show. He's kind, loves children, and is an overall good person. He has a bit of an arch in this show, and as we get to learn more of his past and what he's gone through, you'll find yourself wanting to give him a big hug, and a shoulder to cry on.
Lastly, we have our rookie detective Soo Young, who's new to the whole detective thing. We know next to nothing about her, and it kind of stays that way. She was a bit of a flat character because the few things we know about her. But, for that reason also, I'd say kudos to Nam Gyu Ri, for her performance, since she didn't have a lot to work with.
All of the child actors were great, I can't wait till they grow up. I'm sure they'll be at the top when they get older. Their performances were extremely raw and honest and didn't feel forced at all, like a lot of the times in dramas. The creators of Children of Nobody really hit a home-run when it came to the child actors.
A couple of things are left to your imagination - which I guess is for the best, since some of the neglect and the abuse is really horrible. But it does add to the show's overall feel and message. The biggest things are often the ones left unsaid and for a reason.
So, if you're in the mood for a raw, sad, mysterious drama, where you'll question your morals, then definitely watch it. BUT, if you yourself has gone through any kind of abuse, I would reconsider watching it, since that's one of the main factors of the show.
