Little Women 작은 아씨들 (2022)
Watched 22 September - 10 October 2022 — 12 episodes (DRAMACOOL)
Yesterday I watched the much anticipated last two episodes of Little Women. Not having binged the show in one go and having to wait until the new episodes were being aired made me feel less immersed in the story and I had to get into it again. Like so many reviewers I was disappointed with the ending but at least no one died (except for the villains). Fortunately Oh In-kyung got her happy ending with Ha Jong-ho, it was sweet and there was even a kiss. But Oh In-joo and Choi Do-il only got an airport goodbye, no kiss, not even a hug. Oh In-joo said 'Stay healthy' and Choi Do-il said 'I’ll see you again', standing meters apart from each other. It did show promise for them meeting again in the near future.
During the show I really grew to like Oh In-joo, understanding better where she’s coming from, and she became my favourite sister. Kim Go-eun gives a stand-out performance. She’s terrific! Also, too bad there’s no sisters reunion and the storyline with the youngest sister Oh In-hye came off poorly. Though I found the plot a bit confusing and felt there were still some loose ends to be tied up, overall it was a compelling watch and I wouldn’t have minded if there had been 16 episodes instead of 12. Actually, I would have preferred it, so they could have given a proper happy ending to Oh In-joo and Choi Do-il!!!
