• Prior To The Final Episode of "Our Blues", What Has Captivated The Audience

    A star-studded lineup of prominent actors has drawn attention from production, and "Our Blues"' last episode is just around the corner.

    tvN's "Our Blues" is an omnibus drama. According to screenwriter Noh Hee Kyung, "creating novels that focus on only two major characters became less appealing at some point," adding that "In fact, we are all the primary characters of our life. No cast members should have been treated as guests, and I did not want to do so".

    Since "Our Blues" had so many key characters, they discussed a wide range of topics.

    A geese father and his eldest daughter, who gave their entire lives to support their parents and brothers, were both depicted by actors Cha Seung Won and Lee Jung Eun in the series Han Soo & Eun Hee.

    Cha Seung Won played Han Soo and Lee Jung Eun played Eun Hee. By offering each other consolation and encouragement, they were able to elicit a wide range of emotional responses and reactions from the audience.

    Ho Sik, Young Joo, In Kwon, and Hyun all dealt with the topic of teen pregnancy, as did episodes starring Park Ji Hwan, Choi Young Joon, Roh Yoon Seo, and Bae Hyun Sung.

    Because they're the top two students in their class and class presidents, Young Joo and Hyun's pregnancy shocked the entire neighborhood.

    When the two were scared about having a baby, they ultimately decided to give birth to the child because of their great love and trust for one another, as well as the disputes they had with their fathers when trying to convince them to keep the baby.

    Park Ji Hwan and Choi Young Joon's performances in these episodes were well lauded for enhancing viewers' immersion in the story.

    There were numerous remarks on the story's completeness for young performers Roh Yoon Seo and Bae Hyun Sung on well.

    Additionally, the episodes starring Han Ji Min, Kim Woo Bin, and Jung Eun Hye garnered high marks from the critics and the people alike.

    We learned what other haenyeos had been accusing Young Ok of: lying. As a result of her parents' deaths, Young Ok was left to care for her Down Syndrome twin sister.

    When Young Hee visited Young Ok on Jeju Island, her account was applauded for accurately conveying the agony and terrible condition that disabled individuals and their loved ones face.

    While Han Ji Min and Kim Woo Bin's performances were particularly poignant, it was Jung Eun Hye's that really elevated the drama.

    The viewers were even more moved when caricature artist Jung Eun Hye's works were also shared through the show's airing.

    Dong Seok (Kim Hye Ja) and his mother Ok Dong had a love-hate relationship in the final storyline (Lee Byung Hun). After the death of her husband and daughter, Ok Dong married the friend of her husband's.

    The focus is on how Ok Dong and her son Dong Seok, who was harmed by his mother's previous decision, will reconcile their issue.

    High hopes are also placed on Lee Byung Hun and Kim Hye Ja, who both performed quite well in the show's most recent episodes, respectively.

    "Our Blues" has shown how difficult subjects like adolescent pregnancy and challenged families may be depicted accurately and sincerely by extending the perspective and looking at them more compassionately.

    Both the storylines and the performers' performances have been positively acclaimed. Lee Byung Hun, Kim Hye Ja, Go Doo Sim, Lee Jung Eun, Cha Seung Won, Shin Min Ah, Kim Woo Bin, Park Ji Hwan, Choi Young Joon, Roh Yoon Seo, and Bae Hyun Sung finished the well-made drama "Our Blues" with the flawless cast lineup without an acting hole.

    In addition, the reviews are quite positive. In the first episode, it was just 7.3 percent, but by the recently aired 18th episode, it had risen steadily to 12.5 percent.

    When it comes to "Our Blues," which was created as an all-encompassing new series, new heights are reached each time a new episode is aired thanks to its diverse subject matter and stellar ensemble. As a result, viewers are eagerly anticipating the last two episodes to find out how the story will conclude.
