Wow this drama received a lot of love in the reviews, but I think it should come with a warning label. It is extremely emotional to those who have experienced loss of a parent, physical or mental abuse, or abandonment. I cried and cried. I would never have watched this if I had known...I can't write spoilers.

I like that the writer is trying to bring to light some of the atrocities and stereotypes that occur in this world. I don't know why some people have put a taboo on adopted children. I don't know why people don't immediately take a child away from abusive parents...even if they have to investigate. Isn't it better safe then sorry??? The way people treat single mothers is awful. Hasn't anyone ever heard that it takes a tribe to raise a child. If we cared more about people, then maybe these horrible things wouldn't happen as often. I could go on and on, but I will stop now. At least the writer didn't glorify kidnapping a child even if it is to get the child out of a horrible situation. The symbolism of the writer using the birds was well done.

The problem with this drama and the reason why I gave it a lower score is that it wouldn't have been as good with out Heo Yool. I don't know where this little girl came from, but she is awesome. I felt for her through the entire drama and wondered if she might need counseling after playing such a role. I have liked Lee Bo Young in other things, but she lacked in this drama. I just couldn't get into the "mother" character she was trying to portray. In the end I would have dropped this if it weren't for the little girl.

The music was pretty.

I will never rewatch this.

I only recommend this drama to those who want to cry.
