As women, we're forced to make choices, sacrifices... And one of the biggest sacrifices we make is being a mother.

Birthcare Center focuses on new mothers' postpartum lives who come from different family and professional backgrounds. It caught my attention from the beginning because it's not like cliché k-dramas that make me cringe and are unbearable to watch.

In Birthcare Center, new moms can rest and recover freely and get treatment both for themselves and for their babies. It's basically like a hotel, but just for postpartum mothers. The main character of this drama is a strong senior from a skincare company. All her life, she focused on her professional life, and this was her (almost) only identity. By becoming a mom, she discovers a new identity. Like every mother, she starts being too harsh on herself: should she go back to work or should she be a full-time stay-at-home mother for a year? Even though being a mom is not in my agenda soon, I want to be a mom in the future. And I believe that many of you have thought about being a mom and the choices we have to make.
I recommend this mini-drama.
