Now that I have completed this series I took some time to evaluate my feelings about the top three amazing women of WWW. This is mostly a character review vs. plot. I must say the main three female characters represented parts of me that I understood and sympathized with. Did anyone else feel the same?
Bae Ta-mi (Tammy) was played beautifully by Im Soo-jung I am a big fan of Im Soo-jung and her acting never disappoints! As the plot developed I became very invested in her character. Her story line was very similar to my life experience. My significant other is quite a bit younger than I. At the time we met (over 10+ years ago) I, like Tammy, had the same fears of our age difference and how that would impact his life/future. Also, like Tammy, I was/am a professional working woman with no desire to marry. This is not a statement that professional working women tend to stay clear of marriage just what my personal feelings have been. In today's society I believe no matter what country you reside in there is still the basic premise that women are expected to marry in order to gain/obtain their identify. If not married than what are you as a women and what is your place in society? To me, it's an old concept that thankfully is gradually changing. Marriage IS a wonderful institution but I believe it's not an exclusive state to be in in order to be with 'your person'. A lot of what Tammy struggled through really ran true to me. In my case I broke the relationship up as well suggesting he needed to experience life and other relationships to truly decide what was best for him. Happily we realized that we truly loved each other and wanted to be in this world as a couple! If Tammy appeared cold and unaffected by her relationship with Park Morgan I believe she held back her love for what she saw as the greater good ... seeing him happy and not disappointed in his choices. Morgan had his own trauma with the most important woman of his life his "mom" and the abandonment he felt by her. Tammy was very sensitive to that and I truly believe her character wanted the best for him even knowing how much she grew to love him. To me, the way in which their story developed was very real and truthful. Sometimes love means letting someone go to search for their happiness and sometimes they never return ... and that is a very frightening risk.
Cha Hyeon (Scarlett) reminded me of my younger self. Bold in so many ways yet hesitant and shy when uncertain. Loyal to a fault and a champion of all champions! Her character reminds me a what a true friendship should be .. even when you know that person may be making a terrible mistake you give them your opinion but you still stand by their side. Her utter fierceness mixed with vulnerability was beautiful played by Lee Da-hee. I must say De-hess is an absolutely beautiful woman and every time she was on the screen I found myself fan-girling! Luckily it was not too distracting because she played her character ON POINT! I love the fact even if she did not understand the circumstances of her friend's decisions she STUCK BY THEIR SIDE. That is how my true friends have been in my life and I'm very lucky to have found them.
Song Ga-kyeong was a very complicated character for me mostly due to my frustration regarding the choices she kept making. Part of me wanted to strangle her and I found myself yelling out "WHAT ARE DOING?!" many times to her behavior. That subtle, restrained, outwardly tough character acted out by Jeon Hye-jin was brilliant. Ga-kyeong is that women faced with formidable decisions which she does not shy away from. For me she represented the difficult choices working women still face today especially the issue of loyalty to work, family or self. Sometimes they seem mutually exclusive. Tough choices but ultimately decided by her so in the end her choices her responsibility.
Overall to me the one one word that came to mind in regards to this drama .... 'decisions'. Decisions for yourself, your life as well as your loves. Processional work place decisions as well as personal ones. Both highly impacting your life and those in your life.
Wonderful drama I highly recommend it!
SHOW STOPPER. Ok the lead up to and including the car smashing screen was EPIC! A great homage to "Goblin".. power women version. LUV'D IT!!! It was refreshing to see that yes we women blow up as well and want physical release. We want to smash things too!! Love the satisfaction that scene brought me... no regret, remorse or apologies. EPIC!!
FINAL THOUGHT: Yes I only focused on the women of this drama but it was so refreshing to see women strong/soft, complex and united. It reminds me of my GF squad. I hope the Kdrama industry picks up on this theme and runs with it!!!
