I Am Legend

Hey Everyone!

So, I just finished another really good drama! Though, I did not like the vagueness of the ending for the romance element, the main idea behind the drama, of independence, was well portrayed even till the end. Anyways, so this drama was called I Am Legend. It was mainly about Jun Seol Hee and her struggle to get a divorce from her husband, as well as trying to make something of her 'ajhumma band'. Her husband, Cha Ji Wook, is a big-shot lawyer, so it was very difficult for her to finally get her divorce, however throughout the proceedings, Jang Tae Hyun and her band mates helped her. Though, in the end she got the proof of JW cheating, she chose not to take revenge, and ended up getting her divorce and freedom from the demanding family. Initially she started this battle because the family wouldn't let her give up her bone marrow since she was in the middle of fertility treatment (she was only able to marry into the 'rich' family since she was pregnant, but ended up having a miscarriage, and then her husband became distant). In the end, she wanted it for herself too, for her own humility and independence. It was a very good drama about women's lives in their 30's, and how they faced their hardships and left their reality by their music. After the divorce was finalized, SH became closer to TH, but there was no real ending for them (they did confess their feelings though, but she gave up on it since he would lose his son to his ex-wife if he persued a relationship with SH or anyone). In anycase, there was some romance in this drama, and twisted fate, since it was SH's husband and TH's ex-wife that ended up having an affair. How twisted is that? In the end though, JW broke up with TH's ex-wife and realized he cared about SH afterall, but by this point, she was over him (no, he did not do anything crazy to get in SH and TH's way, in fact, he was very kind and helped her out during another trial later on). Anyways, regardless of the lack of romance, it was a very good drama, which showed that you can make it big even in your 30's (as an ajhumma). I liked the focus on the main character and the character development into independence. I also, really liked the music from th "Comeback Madonna" band. I've downloaded it already! Anyways, I give this drama a 4.5 out of 5 stars just because of the lack of closure in the end for SH and TH.

I'm off,
