A drama past the happy endings

Our Blues is a nuanced drama that shows the nitty-gritty of humanity. The drama discusses various relationships, mother-son, friendships, siblings and lovers. The show does not make anyone the typical hero/heroine who is perfect but rather shows how good people can make bad decisions.
This show discusses themes I have not seen explored in previous dramas, such as teenage pregnancy, Down Syndrome, depression, suicide and domestic violence experienced by a husband. Our Blues is the best title for every character who experiences the blues of life. This isn't the drama to escape the dreariness of your life but the drama to watch to understand the complexity of humans. This is a drama filled with misunderstandings and conflict and love and joy. The contrast between the heavy storylines and the beauty of Jeju, which outwardly seems perfect and blissful, makes for enjoyable viewing.

Of course, it doesn't hurt that the casting for this drama is perfect, every character is brought to life, and I enjoy seeing Shin Min Ah play a role I have not seen her before.

Although this drama is not perfect, and it is nothing like Noh Hee Kyung's previous works, I encourage everyone to watch this drama in a way I feel like we can all learn something.

This drama made me want to write a review for the first time. Cha Youngjin is not only intelligent but her intelligence remains throughout the drama. She is loving and competent and I love her little gang of kids. Cha Youngjin remained true to her character and seeing her evolve from beginning where she didn't really want to build relationships to the end where she let her burdens down was truly amazing
Baek Sangho was also a true star originally you detest him and his crazed look brings attention to him however by the end of the drama you grow a little sympathy for him" what would he have been had he met someone like Youngjin?''
Eunho makes this drama worth watching he adds the light to the darkness... the little kid trying to fulfill big shoes. His kindness and character makes you root for him and hug. The actor portrayed the youth and maturity of Eunho so well . Episode 13 really showed how he was trying to be brave in hard times.
I recommend this drama for everyone who doesn't like the typical detective drama and wants rational yet kind leads.This drama makes you root for everyone and make them happy. Only thing I disliked was the irrationality of Baek Sangho during the last episode however that could be explained by his breakdown by the end.
