    One of the best k-dramas ever

    There are lots of kdramas with similar plots out there, but this one is almost unique. It's about the love of a woman for a child not her own, who is willing to put her life on the line to save the child, who is in mortal danger from her own mother. It's a heartbreaking, yet fulfilling story with great acting by Lee Bo Young and the child actor. It puts anything Hollywood does to shame, and is well worth watching.

    Perfect

    This is the second time I rate a TV series with 10 stars. I never thought I'd watch something this good. I think this is the best I have ever watched. It's as close to perfection as it can get.

    There were times when I thought that something was wrong or weird, but it was explained later. No plotholes, no decline in quality as it progressed, some unexpected plot twists.

    Not much else to write. The word "perfect" sums everything up.

    * I guess the only problem with this drama is that it's hard to watch some scenes because of the tears in the eyes.

    No better love than mother's love

    No better show that Call me Mother. This is the best show ever. The emotions that it invokes will completely drain your eyes and makes you heart ache. Almost every episode has made me cry. This is an abolute gem that need to be treasured and cherised. The Acting from two main leads Mom and Yom-booki (thats how she will be remembered) have competely lived through the characters never it came to my mind i was watching a show. K-Dramas knows how to strike you with emotion and open the flood gates from your eyes and this one has done it consistently in each episodes. I am so glad the way it ended with a satisfying note. The dialogues from the child mouth are to be framed on every wall of my house. I have appreciated shows and movies before , But never have i wanted to truly show gratitude in making one. (Call me mother and My Mister) Thank you from the bottom of my heart for every one Cast and crew involved to gave the opportunity to experience this in my life. Why in the world is this show did not draw attention and why low number of votes is beyond me. MUST MUST Watch for all human beings.

    Eomma saranghae... Daebak!

    I really thankful that I managed to watch this drama. It filled emptiness in my soul. It liven my life once again. I don't mind ended up with frozen cucumber in my eyes from episode to episode. It breaks your heart and heals your heart in the same time. Thanking all people who put their best effort to make this drama came so beautiful. And the music score really rounds out everything into perfection. I do love the "To You" from Kim Yoon-ah whenever it comes out to hit the scene, the vibe and the tears, for real.

    The last one, I really thankful to my mom for being the best mom for me till now, despite the fact that I was adopted. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is your love, mom. Really thank you. :)

    An Amazing story of a Mother Daughter Relationship!!

    *"NO SPOILERS"*

    *ALERT* You may end up Weeping a lot of times whie watching this show if you have an Emotinal Personality.

    So this show is about how a lady Kang Su-jin(Lee Bo-young) becomes a Mother without being Biological mother of Kim Hye-na(Heo-yool) and how they goes on journey full of Emotions. I only saw just one show starring Lee Bo-young before this show and although I was her fan already but I never thought that I'll start respecting her so much. The show has an amazing story with Brilliant Cast. Even the Antagonists have Justified their Characters with their Acting. I didn't see the Original Version before but I guess it wasn't even necessary. The Cinematography, Background Score and Direction was fantastic. The best thing about the this show is the main Protagonist Kim Hye-na( Heo-yool) played by a Debudante at the age of 8. She express her Emotions so well that You'll feel all the Feelings she's going through. The bond and chemistry shown between Kim hye-na and Kang Su-jin is Heartmelting.

    Although some people Criticized the show for various reasons but I guess a show like this isn't Cup of tea for Everyone. I respect their opinions but If you haven't watched this show just because People Criticized is not right. One must see the show before making the Judgement about the show beforehand. "You should not judge a Book by it's Cover". And yes everything has its flaws and nothing is Perfect.

    Overall, I'd really recommend this show to everyone.
