Mom (2015)

.

It doesn't do a good job making a "family" drama. The mother's fling seems to be taking most of focus. The family relationships are barely there. The inheritance/fortune thing mentioned in the synopsis was briefly mentioned for 1-2 episodes and became completely irrelevant after that. The drama had a big cast but lacked variety. Everyone was hang on their 1st love. Everyone was having marital problems in the last 10 episodes. Why repeating the same thing across all the couples?

What's even worse, the drama suffers from massive inconsistencies especially with Gang Jae. His character was changing at the writer's will while discarding earlier build up. Don't get me started on his love life too. Min Ji was too prominent for the first 10 episodes as a main character then suddenly disappeared for 12 episodes and only came back once every 5 episodes or so. Yoo Ra's husband had too much power and control over everyone until suddenly he didn't. And many more examples.
