The LONG PILL:

This show shines a light on the real issue and effects of bullying that might sometimes be a bit more downplayed in other dramas. But instead of simply letting things work themselves out and hopefully fade away, one mom, decides to do something about it.
The show can get a bit unbelievable in certain episodes and may be a bit of a stretch but all is acceptable in the world of Kdrama writing. I would have loved to see more dimensions in Kim Yoo Jung’s character but I also understand that the series was about her mom.

Moments...

CAST CHEMISTRY was great! Ji Soo really committed to his role and was awesome! Would have loved to see a little more warmth between Mom (Kim Sun Hee) and Daughter (Kim Joo Jung).

MAIN INGREDIENTS:

ALL DONE? WHAT FUN!

Exam Results:

A-

I highly recommend this Drama for those who haven’t seen. With. a few different choices in writing and character storylines, this series could have been and A+ all the way!

Side Effects:

You will NEVER forget Kim Sun Hee as an undercover highschool mom! And when you see a student that you love, struggling, you’ll be very tempted with throwing on a uniform and trying your luck- but don’t. Ha… at the thought though.
