I only watched this because of one actor
yall tbh i only swallowed up this whole series because of ki joon because i've been traumatized at his performance of joo dan tae in penthouse and i needed to see him in more villain roles, but at the end i quite liked this serie.It's obviously not the best you can find out there, but it's pretty good & it's short, I didn't like in-kyung and choi dol wtvr his name was i hate them, but the story is pretty interesting. But I'd like if they trried to explain things better, overall it's alright!!

Not Wrong Living Poor
12 solid episodes.The scenario writer for the Korean drama "Little Women" seemed to be challenged, having to compose a work consisting of a set of colorful puzzles, with different themes and colors.
It takes the ability to place the right bridging so that the audience is comfortable from start to finish.
The poor family puzzle, combined with the friendship puzzle, the journalist world puzzle, the election intrigue puzzle, the disturbed mental health puzzle and other puzzles, must be put together in 12 episodes.
Not easy. But writernim is quite successful. At least the audience isn't confused when watching the Korean drama "Little Women" from start to finish. Although it must be admitted that many holes appear. One of them was when Won Sang-A trapped Oh In-Joo and Jin Hwa-Young in an orchid room. The climax needed for dramatic effect.
The Korean drama "Little Women" is recommended because it is filled with top South Korean actors/actresses. Among them, the antagonist Uhm Ki-Joon has become increasingly popular since playing Joo Dan-Tae in the Korean drama Penthouse (1,2,3).
His role as Park Jae-Sang in the Korean drama "Little Women" was truly unexpected. The audience, who initially resented him, turned pity to see Park Jae-Sang humiliated by his wife, and even told to commit suicide.
Regarding the main cast not being united in the last episode, it doesn't seem to be a problem. In fact, the audience can imagine that one day the two of them will meet.
Sweet, right?

Well it was alright! This show definitiely had a strong start and it seemed like it was going somewhere but I remember being a bit disappointed by the ending. Especially by the couple (inju and doil) like what was the point of them having this divine tension and chemistry between each other if you arent even gonna do anything about it!?But I was really intrigued by that whole flower plot and the flower being like a serial killers autograph on every death.
I loved the sisters as well and their dynamic even though inju and inhye pissed me off sometimes..inkyeong remains the best sister in my opinion!!

No Romantic Beautiful Drama
A series about money.What risks would you take for money? Is this worth doing?
First of all, I loved the character of Kim Go Eun in the lead. It was very natural. She tended to be sometimes crazy and sometimes cautious. The middle sister was an ordinary person. And a journalist who can risk a lot for his goals. The younger sister, on the other hand, was annoying at times, but was actually the smartest character. The most crucial feature of the drama was the dialogues and character developments. Sometimes while watching this drama, I remembered the TV series My Mister. Both company issues and criminal ties have common ground between these two dramas.

An interesting if marginally frustrating show. Let down by parts of the last few episodes
This is not for you if :1. You're looking for traditional thriller/mystery
2. Traditional heart warming sibling behaviour
Do watch if :
1. Looking for some unusual plot , and dont mind dialogue heavy drama
The drama has some incredible dialogue that feels like direct shots fired at society we are in today. The show felt less about a plot , and more about the journey each of the characters undergoes . The ways in which various situations change them for better/worse , the complexities of reltionships and imperfect family dynamics .
In different ways , each of the Oh siblings move from being in the sidelines to learning to own the space they occupy.
Given the unusual plot base , i actually enjoyed the blunders and struggles of the leads . The chaos felt very similar to have ordinary ,everyday people would react when faced with extraordinary/bizzare events.
The osts werent particularly memorable , then again it requires most of your focus to be able to follow the plot , so ill have to give them a zeperate listen.
Costumes and set design were actually really well done in setting the tone for the scenes we were dealing in. Actors did a decent job, and had you immersed in the story, which is q win for me.
Real gold goes to the writers who wrote some heart hurting zingers with the dialogue.

Worth watching!
I was a little hesitant to start the show, but one I did I literally had to binge watch the whole show. Loved that the show was intriguing and unpredictable, always wondering what was going to happen next. Story is very much mystery based and the story line was very refreshing. Another thing is that it is not focused on romance, which other shows similar to Little Women is, so if you like seeing romance between main characters this is probably not the show for you. Overall, highly recommend watching the show if you are a sucker for mysteries and love nerve wrecking stories.Cet avis était-il utile?
a good lullaby to help you sleep
I’ve tried, guys. I really have. I gave this series a fair chance, but I couldn’t get past the third episode—it was just boring as hell.From the moment I saw the mother steal the envelope full of money in episode one, I knew this journey would not be easy. Honestly, it’s not a good idea to leave that much cash sitting on your bedroom table where anyone in the house can access it. It’s incredibly foolish, especially when you don’t trust your own family, like in this case with the mother. Face palm.
As for the characters, they didn’t fare any better. The first daughter comes across as far too naive, while the second daughter often acts rashly without thinking things through. The third daughter is just plain ungrateful, which made it hard for me to connect with any of them.
Unfortunately, I’m not strong enough to fight off the sleepiness that creeps in with each episode. So, sadly, my journey with this drama has to end here.

Good but not great
the storyline is great overall but I had a hard time feeling connected to In Joo. I’m not sure if it was the actress or her character but she was frustrating to watch.there was a lot of suspense and the plot twists were really good but most of of could have gone so much smoother if the sisters just communicated with each other…which they never seemed to do, despite trying to give the sense they were so close. In Joo was frustrating with all her needy, “selfless”, and oftentimes stupid choices.

Mystical blue orchid juice; spit out.
The bigger the expectations, the bigger the disappointment. I was looking forward to this show for the cast and what seemed to be a complex, suspenseful story; it had a fresh vibe to it. Instead, the show fell flat from start to finish. The cardinal issue is the overwhelming lack of reality in virtually every character, their motivations, and plot lines. In fact, I wonder if they would have better succeeded by employing a more surreal tone/style or adding clearer fantasy elements. It's hard for me to digest a mystical blue orchid juice schema as realistic. It does look like a nice color for a cocktail, though.The three sisters' interrelationships were not compelling or authentic. They were never on the same page with anything, willfully ignoring one another's advice and support, even freely embarrassing one another publicly, and putting each other in danger. Are they really sisters? Oh In Hye and Park Hyo Rin looked like they could be sisters, but were not.
Even though Won Sang A is overall not believable as a character, I did enjoy her skilled execution of 'delightful perversion'. She deserved a better ending scene; it was lame. Kim Go Eun, who I've generally enjoyed in other shows, was regrettably dull as Oh In Joo. I even got a bad acting vibe from her in this show. Oh In Hye's character was worthy of hate, but I was still impressed at how the actress put out a convincing arrogance, immaturity; she almost felt like a good character that was placed incorrectly on the board. Oh In Kyung, on the other hand, was too narrow and stubborn to enjoy, I feel the acting/directing could have been interpreted in a less narrow way; she had the right look for the part, but the delivery was simply overcooked.
Music was fairly good. The opening track, Power Scandal, was the right vibe for the show. I picture weird lizards crawling around peoples face when I listened to this. It definitely enhanced the 'twisted' feeling of the plot and villain characters. The OST tracks were mostly dark in tone and served well to enhance the thriller tension and action. Listening to the OST tracks alone, they feel appropriate for nighttime city suspense.
I'd actually like to rate this show lower, but I can feel the strong effort of production, the effort to try to do something different, great, and compelling. The show always felt like it had that potential to be great and it wasn't so far from accomplishing that with some modifications. Although the cast and crew fell short of my expectations, I applaud them for trying to give us something fresh.

Not A Remake
I originally didn't watch this drama, because I thought it was a remake or the English Little Women. It is not!! From the beginning you are thrust into the poverty & the disillusionment of the 3 sisters. It also depicts very well how money is the root of all evil. It shows in stark contrast how individuals act when confronted with the option of good over bad. I liked the drama but I found it had way too many limbs on the tree. There was the family story - the grandmother story - the political corruption story - the money story - the murder & they threw in a fake romance between the main characters just I think for sustaining interest. It was an ok watch , only because the acting was grade A & on point. Too bad it had they waited until the last couple of episodes to try and tie in the multiple story linesCet avis était-il utile?
