Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)


Peg Ia'm agreeing with you all the way, but I add in Dr. Mom And S-Mom. All the "mother" females in this drama are trying every machination to keep their own lives intact, while destroying anyone in the way. All the "father" male roles seem lost in confusion and making bad choices because of what their wives are doing and saying to them. Perhaps that is the moral of this drama, secrets breed sadness, contempt, and never remain secrets. It's impossible to tell children not to do something and not give them a reason. They will continue looking for the truth until it's uncovered. Better to be honest right up front. From S-Mom's mother down the line it's just one huge web of secrecry that is unravelling in front of our eyes.

K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)


Lex07...I thought I said in my last post that I was giving up on this show.

In the beginning, I liked the show very much and thought it was much better than most during this time slot especially the characters of Suin, Hyeonsu and Jisu. However as the show progressed, my opinion changed
greatly, and I no longer liked the characters of Suin and Hyeonsu.

Also, my taste in shows seems gravitate towards the shorter shows such as EAST OF EDEN, DOG AND WOLF, THE BLUE HOUSE, AGIAN MY LOVE, etc.

While I like this drama as well, I have tried many times to quit watching it. Some of the situations just aren't being handled and resolved in a sensible manner. As was said, the secrets keep causing pain and no one thought/thinks to break that cycle of keeping secrets. We're at 85, I think, and Juho still won't tell Shinae why they can't be together, he should be bold and go for it. The simplest of issues get blown way out of proportion.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)


I had to laugh when Hye's mom was talking to Jisu (after having the confrontation in Hye/Suin's apt). Jisu said this was what made Hyeonsu happy. His mom said SHE wanted his happiness too and she would cut all ties with him (to get it)... Does she even hear herself? How is cutting ties with your son going to force him to be happy?

To me Hyeonsu and Suin are getting stronger by the day. Once they made their stand together they united into a very strong front. They are great together..

Oh I wish Hiro would give me that necklace to wear to show I cared... I'd have grabbed that thing out of his hand and onto my neck before he could blink!!! I BET Jisu will wear it tomorrow (uh, I mean Monday).. Can't wait!!!

Is Gramps going to give Suin's mom a bad time too? You CAN'T control your adult kids so why blame the mom for not sending her off to New Zealand? I would love to climb up on my soap box over this topic.. I'm going through some similar stuff right now and I would love to tell the mom's in this show to GIVE IT UP!!

The meeting with Gramps should have taken place 10 or 15 episodes ago. They have to overcome the hurt and grudges from the past. Adults are entitled to respect, but should be expected to give up petty feuds for their children`s future.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)


This has been going on for so long that I can't quite remember why they hated Jisu's mother so much. why did they tell her that the baby died and why did they then make her leave the family? Had she done anything wrong to them or to her husband who died? It all seems so petty, and has being enlarged upon and kept ignited by the Horrible Aunt.

She did nothing, it was the aunt's fault the brother died, he was home with his pregnant wife on her birthday when motor-mouth aunt called wanting help with her liar husband who stole $500.00 from her., he was on her way to her house.
Motor-Mouth aunt is igniting the situation, to cover her guilt.

Jisu maternal grandmother gave up Jisu on her own she thought she will be better taken care by her father's family. Motor-mouth aunti had nothing to do with that, she only help cover up the fact that Jisu is her brother's child.

class blockquote It is about Awful Auntie....

Actually it seems to me that she is the one who is responsibl for everything bad that has happened to every one in the family.
Let's burn her at the stake! emoticon class blockquote This has been going on for so long that I can't quite remember why they hated Jisu's mother so much. why did they tell her that the baby died and why did they then make her leave the family? Am I remember correctly, wasn't it S-Mom's own mother who took the baby away and gave to in-laws and told her own daughter the baby died. class blockquote I thought I said in my last post that I was giving up on this show.Sorry, Pali, that's not allowed. We made nsheldon sit through the entire drama of A River Runs Through It which was making her pull her hair out. So, you have to bear it to the end like the rest of us. emoticon emoticon

I think this is most like the typical American Soap Opera of any of the K-dramas that I've watched.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)


Well, I guess I shouldn't say anything about folks watching a drama they are not enjoying... I've actually done that several times. Sometimes even if you are frustrated with the show or hate where it's going, you find yourself tuning in, regardless of your feelings...

I could not stop, and didn't care for As the River Flows and the same with Home Town Station (just couldn't seem to stop myself from continuing). I quit on two dramas that I couldn't bear to watch the ending of: Landscape of My Heart (and the thing is airing again in the mornings) and My Sweetheart My Darling. I stopped on both these with about 6+ episodes to go.

OMG, I remember that I ran out and bought a bunch of tapes to record You Are My Destiny. It started so well and then they added more to it and it just dragged on and on. I quit taping eventually (I have a big stack of what I did tape in the closet)... I ended up really disliking that one. But I felt I had invested so much of my time in it that I just couldn't stop watching.... or complaining!!! LOL

But I'm enjoying watching all the couples in Road. I even have found some redeeming qualities in Sumi. She does love her family. And when Hyeonsu came to take Suin away and the parents were forcibly trying to stop them, Sumi and Juho were trying to break it up and telling Hyeonsu and Suin to get out. Sumi also seems to want a relationship with Jisu but she isn't ready to extend the olive leaf just yet..

Road is very predictable and sometimes I like that.
