STORY:
Reading the summary of the show first made me very skeptical of this drama, so going in, I was pretty critical. As the episodes progressed, I realized just how charming this drama was! I loved the chemistry between all three couples in the show, each for different reasons. Do Kyeong and Hae Yeong were a really loving, forever couple who made me feel as if as if all love ends happily. Soo Kyeong and Jin Sang are a mature couple who may seem as if they won't last, but overall, you can't stop rooting for them to be happy. Hoon and Anna are that first puppy love couple who make you either want to make you want to roll your eyes or "awwww" over. Overall, I was delighted with each's story and growth.
Hands down, my favorite part of the entire show was the relationship between Hae Young and her mother. I instantly fell in love with Duk Yi for her overbearing protection over her daughter. I think it's rare to see mother's who come off as stoic and cold, but are really caring and have nothing but the deepest love for there children, so seeing such a character on screen was refreshing. And I absolutely adored Duk Yi's explanation of her feelings towards Hae Young in episode 16. It reminded me of my own love-hate relationship with my mother and caused me to tear up a bit.
The story and pacing overall seemed to drag on a bit and they are the main reason why I'm not giving the story a 10 :/.
ACTING/CAST:
Other than Kim Mi Kyung and Lee Jae Yoon, I was completely unfamiliar with the entire cast, and yet everyone shined! I really don't know how to get into detail each person individually, but overall, every character in the drama fit so perfectly in their roles.
MUSIC AND REWATCH VALUE:
I enjoyed a few of the songs, but most I couldn't stomach after having to hear them play over and over again.
Because the drama seemed to lag on for so long, it's hard for me to see myself rewatching this again. But because of my love for the story and characters, I feel that I will find myself cuddled up in bed, late at night, during a long weekend rewatching it.
OVERALL:
Overall, Another Miss Oh is a delightfully charming drama and I hope that I can find such charm in many more dramas to come.
