      Chad de Guzman TIME Magazine Ra and Lee’s performances help The Good Bad Mother transcend its familiar notes to become a worthwhile and heart-rending watch. Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Jae-Ha Kim Jae-Ha Kim (Substack) Like "Our Blues," "My Liberation Notes" and "Reply 1988," "The Good Bad Mother" is a slice-of-life series filled with quirky characters who are overly interested in each other's business. Rated: 3.5/4 Jul 28, 2023 Full Review Nathan Sartain Ready Steady Cut This story of loss, redemption, and the wear and tear of life is just as affecting as it is uplifting. And in the same vein, equal parts thought-provoking as it is tinged by well-placed humor. Rated: 4/5 Jul 27, 2023 Full Review Liz Kocan Decider Like a good soap opera or telenovela, we’ve barely even scratched the surface of what this show is really about, there are plotlines that haven’t even been hinted at yet.

      Mic T Truly enjoyable! Wow! An overbearing, pig-farming mom, a distant, successful lawyer son, revenge, amnesia and a village full of whacky characters. It will have you laughing one minute and crying the next, a real rollercoaster of emotions! It is one of those rare shows (like Itaewon Class and Vincenzo) that I might watch again some day. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/19/23 Full Review Elaine H Absolutely loved this series. We agree it was one of the best shows we have ever seen. Reading the English dialogue can be challenging but worth it. It is about love and grief and every other emotion! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/24/23 Full Review Raquel L Uau! Que série fantástica! Vi muitos comentários positivos a respeito, porém a sinopse não me agradou muito. Iniciei sem grandes expectativas e no começo foi difícil manter o ritmo na trama pois a história não me trazia grandes atrativos. Continuei assistindo pois a introdução mostrava um porquinho bebê correndo super alegremente pelo campo e aquele videozinho me deixava feliz. Com o tempo a trama começou a mostrar outras camadas, coisas aconteceram na história e passei a notar que não era bem o que eu havia notado no início e a história começou a me prender tanto, mas tanto, que fiquei apaixonadíssima pela história. Ao final, The Good Bas Mother entre meus 8 dramas coreanos favoritos. História incrível, com romance, comédia, relacionamento familiar complexo porém muito bonito e muito bem feito, relacionamento de abuso entre posições de autoridade. Tudo mostrado com detalhes de muita beleza. Fazia tempo que uma série não me surpreendia tanto. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review Stephanie J At last, a KDrama with a happy ending. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/23 Full Review angela l In my opinion, this is the best kdrama I've ever seen. The love, laughs, action and suspense.. it had every element to make an amazing show!! I cried way too many times. I hope more kdramas like this come out :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/25/23 Full Review Anit S It's one of the best Korean movie I have ever watched. The acting is extraordinary. The plot is implicitly written making it unpredictable and surprising. Once I started watching episode 1 and 2, I couldn't stop. It made you laugh then next moment it made you sob. Believe me you have to watch it. Lots of lessons to be learned. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
