The River Children (2014)

Why aren't there more dramas like this these days??

Two middle aged prodigies in porcelain making. Rivals and constantly at each other's throats, but having mutual caring and admiration deep down. Their families~ a beloved wife and two sons on one side, and motherless two daughters on the other side.
And every single one of them, I repeat, every single one of them, deeply love and care for everyone else and protect each other at any given crisis and would gladly take knives to save the other.
I have never seen a more nuanced and heartrending portrayal of interpersonal relationships in a drama. Who need romance when you can have a marriage between two households? It was ~chef's kiss. I even ship the brick walls of these two houses.
This drama, with its beautiful script and acting, took my heart through a wringer and I gladly allowed it to.
Highly highly recommend. Do not miss this gem when it's free and subbed on YouTube. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJPEbKQEnORO13UHtBOPHT5Oi_g7qv_Hh
