Copy & paste of the original but with interpretations 1,000,000 times better than it. I had a hard time watching the Spanish one, even though I really liked the script, because I was bored of not understanding most of the actors, because of their horrible vocalization and lack of credibility (I'm Spanish), and I saw the Korean one straight away.
Entertaining, but the fact that most of the characters have such special circumstances makes it less believable and makes me lose focus on the main story and creates the need for several prequels that would surely be more interesting to me:
Even more could be added, since the secondary characters are also endowed with history: Dan's sister and nephew, Kaya's mother (excellent character for excellent actress, perhaps the best of the series) and Kaya's social worker ...
In summary, the surrogacy theme and the power play that this can bring is well developed, but the only thing in the series that I consider pure gold is when it shows us how you could let yourself go through life if you let others decide for you.
- EMILY, prequel title: The princess. A typical person with a vocation for the center of the world. Once something happened to her and, consequently, life owes her the fact that everything is as she wishes. I hated the character for being a 'posturing person' and the actress left me cold.
- DAN, prequel title: The criminal. I can understand what he did in his past, but boy, ending up in the brick sector, I am not going to comment much more ... The evolution and logic of the character seems quite credible and I liked the actor.
- KAYA, prequel title: Opportunity and improvement: poor kid, bad life from the beginning, with a mother more than despicable. A survivor. Logical evolution of a strong character. Convincing work of the actress.
Even more could be added, since the secondary characters are also endowed with history: Dan's sister and nephew, Kaya's mother (excellent character for excellent actress, perhaps the best of the series) and Kaya's social worker ...

First half of third chapter, and I can't continue watching it, it's so booooooooring and I have no interest in knowing what'll happen to the main characters (they are absolutely petulant and hateful): death by meteorit, self-boredom extinction, ..., anyway, I'm gonna stop right now, it's a pity because I'm really wanted to know more about Merrit's acting abilities, but I'll try it in future occasions...
