Drama Soliloquy

Just finished watching the torturous events of the last episode of Cinderella's Sister. My Goodness!  How lame can you get?  I had to stop and take a breather, read the recap before I could face the last 20 minutes of it. Even so, I had to take frequent breaks.

Maybe I made this more painful then it needed to be by spoiling myself. But no, I felt the need to brace myself due to the events of the last few episodes of stupid plot contrivances like Mom's leaving, the Eun-Jo like little girl, and angst that didn't need to happen if only people would like, talk and listen to each other.

What I loved most about the show is Eun-Jo. Although she did some really dumb things, like the leaving at the end, had some very long monologues really in the last two episodes, Eun-Jo also had some shining moments when she says she's going to the police anyway, attempts to keep the family together and deal with her inner rage herself. It was her cries of pain and anguish that did it for me.

What I disliked was of course Hyo-Sun whom I didn't think much of to start with, and who improved very little throughout the drama, which shouldn't have been twenty episodes. And what was Taecyeon's character there for? He was never a real threat to KiHoon.

Looking ahead, I want to see Moon Geun-young in another, hopefully better written drama.
