In this k-drama, Yeong-sun, a single mother with a tragic past, rigorously raises her son Kang-ho to become an accomplished prosecutor. As an adult, Kang-ho distances himself from her, until the day an accident upsets everything: he loses his memory and regains the spirit of a child. Forced to live together again, mother and son are given a second chance to rebuild their relationship. Between the wounds of the past and the quest for truth, their bond evolves profoundly.
Great story, great cast. A serious story on the whole, even if the secondary characters add some funny moments (they're needed). Some passages are poignant. Apart from 1 episode that I found far-fetched, the script is good from episode 1 to episode 16, with a nice ending. I'd give it 4.5 stars.
Jin young (Ra mi ran), a fabulous actress, who plays the role of Lee do hyun's mother (who is formidable), must face a destiny where misfortune is constantly cropping up...to counter her misfortunes, she will have to fight to bring up her son and make him better able to fight against life's turpitudes...She will be intransigent with her child, so much so that she will deprive him of freedom and this will sometimes make her cruel...but this is only a facade. This drama is above all a message of love between a son and his mother, and it's a beautiful one.
