Little Women

Little women, loosely based on Louisa May Alcott's novel (only the characters though) is a thriller story of 3 sisters who deals with a society of rich people and their survival to sustain.

Little Women features an extremely well-written plot and air-tight characters. Kim Go-eun does an exceptional job with her acting as In-joo, but it is Uhm Ji-won as Won Sang-ah who takes the cake with her acting. From playing the victim card to acting like a total lunatic, fans really loved to hate Sang-ah. Despite not being a romance drama, fans started growing attached to In-joo and In-kyung's respective love interests, Do-il and Jong-ho.

Even though with 12 episodes (unlike generic 16 eps for a K Drama), Little Women is as intense as it can get with amazing and intense performances. The plot has twisted so often by this point that this cathartic image at the end of episode 11 brings us full circle, setting up the satisfying conclusion in the show's concluding episode.

There was a compelling message in Little Women, but what mattered most are the sensations it evoked. It gave us what we wanted to see, at the end. Little Women is an addition of amazing female led dramas (Why Her, Juvenile Justice, Extraordinary Attorney Woo) in 2022.

My Rating : 8.5/10.

Korean Drama " Little Women " is the story of three sisters, completely different from each other, being drawn into the world of the rich and priviliged.

The drama is more aesthetics and deep dialogues at times, sucrificing its plot for it, but the overall result is intense. The story is complicated, slowly being built up, revealing each characters' real self and motives. The mystery with the rooms and the suicide case were dark and unpredictable and kept things interesting. The romance, on the other hand, was moody and more of an outline in the end.

The performances, in addition, were all great by everyone in the cast.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

There are a lot of good parts about this series. The strongest one being the acting, especially from the female lead, Kim Go-Eun. Her delivery is incredibly good. I also really liked the suspense and action in this series.

Most of the characters are really well thought out and developed. The story is told from the perspective of all the different characters and their stories. All of the stories are intertwined and end up being connected to one another at some point. This part of the story is executed very well.

Even though most of the characters have great development, I feel like some were still definitely used as "filler characters". I also feel like the plot in general has some inconsistencies and plot holes. Some aspects of the story were confusing to understand as well. I think the ending does kind of pull it all together though.

This show is amazingly good when it comes to plot-line, suspense, actors, cinematography - pretty much everything you would want in a good show! I know the new episodes air only on Saturdays and Sundays but it's worth waiting for to watch what happens next. Each character is inter-connected in a mystery, and the story line is very unique. I specifically like Kim Go-eun's role (Oh In-ju in the show) and acting. She plays her role really well!

The suspense and mystery keeps you glued to the show. You get hooked starting the first episode and crave to find out what happens next. Hats off to the writers and everyone who created this masterpiece!

I don't understand the negative reviews. Up until episode 8, the plot is good and always keeps you on edge. The direction is brilliant. The music is too good. The camera angle and shots of some scenes is just stunning and really speak about the attention to details. Plot starts to heat up near episode 7 and you begin to understand each sister's actions, even the youngest's.

This is going to be one of the few Korean Series that I will rate ten out of ten (at least for now, hopefully it stays that way) and I have given a 10 only to like 2-3 Kdramas.

So, with that said, not choosing to watch this amazing series will be your own loss.
