I just finished watching "The Thorn Birds". It is a lovely story. I especially like the actresses Han Hye Jin that portrays the "up and coming new actress" Seo Jung Eun and also Cha Hwa Yun that portrays the "mature actress" Lee Ae Rin (Yoon Myung Ja). Veteran actress Cha Hwa Yun really works well as a catalyst, she makes the character Seo Jung Eun and character "script writer/film producer" Han Yoo Kyung (that is portrayed by Kim Min Jung) blend well in the story.

I especially appreciate what the costume designers create for the cast. We notice that character Jung Eun always wear flats as her footwear that tells us that Jung Eun is a very modest and generous. She is so humble, also she is not wanting any attention or recognition for her efforts to help Lee Ae Rin recuperating from her breast cancer surgery and raising the little youngster Seo Han Byul. On the other side, we notice Yoo Kyung always wear stilettos and pumps which represent determination, competitiveness and also intimidating. Jung Eun is so clueless and shares so much information with Yoo Kyung without realizing that information is power. Yoo Kyung is so conniving and seduces Lee Yeong Jo (portrayed by actor Joo Sang Wook), that is the beginning of all misery for our female lead character Jung Eun.

I would recommend "The Thorn Birds" as the ending is not too depressing after Jung Eun stands up straight and speak up against Yoo Kyung to protect her adopted child, Seo Han Byul.
