Imagine being in support of something or someone just because it has no effect on you directly. Like when you advise a friend which is very easy to do since you are not involved in the situation. I bet we will all have different perspectives of things or comments we make regarding situations if they were to affect us directly.
"Have him, if you can't have him then steal him!" Tnose were the words of Han Seon-joo to Mi-ran. She must have thought, "it would never be my husband". But how life works in a mysterious way...
Show Window: The Queen's House is an ongoing kdrama series directed by Kang Sol, starring Song Yoon-ah, Lee Sung-jae, Jeon So-min, Hwang Chan-sung, Shin Yi-jun, Kim Seung-soo amongst many others. The series revolves around a home that seemed to be perfect only to be destroyed by the greed of man. It follows Han Seon-joo, a woman from a rich background whose life is centred around her husband and kids...leaving her spot in her family's business to care for her family. Only to be betrayed by her husband whose dream is to become the Chairman of La'raine.
Okay, kdramas need to calm down on this infidelity series lol, I mean they keep trooping out in style with different names ever since World of the married broke the ratings a couple of years ago. Also, this story seem to be influenced a lot by World of the married however there is something I like about this one. It is the love portrayed by the kids....not just the kids, by children to their parent, in this case the mothers. This series really touched that part of me and made me think so much on what parent endures just for the happiness of their kids. I actually shed tears tiny but lol, when Tae hee found out about the secret, you could feel the emotions when she hugged her mom promising to protect her, asking her mom to rely on her, you just begin to wonder what this teenager can do to help the situation...their bond was really amazing.
"Mom, why do you have to put up with all this", Tae hee said crying feelingso angry.
"Because, I am mom...I will do anything to make you and your brother happy", Han Seon-jo replied.
"But I can't be happy if you are not mom, I can only be happy when you are. Mom, don't worry, I am going to protect you from now on", Tae hee assured her mom as they cried bitterly and hugged each other.
(Translated in my own words, can't remember word for word) This was my favourite scene...it was so emotional and it actually felt so real. During the course of the series you'd see how she and her brother protected their mom in their own way.
The boldness of the mistress was a different thing entirely but I really can't blame her...this things happen in real life anyway so....not going to say much about that. The storyline is nothing new honestly, just a little difference you might find interesting. The characters are good as they were able to portray their roles well. Did I forget to mention, that there is a possible case of murder? Yeah there is. A story that takes you through phases of love, romance, betrayal, obsession, greed and murder.
How far can you go for someone you love?
How much can you take or endure from someone you love?
One technique I kinda liked was the use of suspense, you see the first scene opens up to Han Seon-joo and Shin Myung-seob taking their vows....next you see someone lying on the floor covered in blood. You are left with questions, as you become curious to know who that person is and who committed such crime. At the beginning of each episodes, they show a glimpse of what happened making you want to grab on to watching it even with a few more episodes.
It is still ongoing like I said earlier, but it is far gone for any significant change to happen...so I pretty much know how it is going to end... it is going to be a messy one, I think.
