One Well-Raised Daughter (2013)

This is a mediocre gender-bender family drama with a plot that has a small amount of romance, a giant lump of vengeance and whole lot of inconsistencies. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who likes a realistic story and intelligent characters. If you do you, and you still decide to watch this, you will find yourself wringing your wrists in anger and wanting to claw your eyes out at certain points. On the other hand - I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys over-the-top family dramas where everything is building to an epic revenge story filled with slaps to the face and sometimes even roundhouse kicks to the head. :D Also if you like gender benders, this is an okay one, but definitely not the best.

Highlights:
- The second male lead is really charismatic and cool, too bad he's not utilized enough in the drama.
- The revenge plot is built up A LOT and tries to satisfy the viewers in every way possible.

Negatives:
- The story is erratic and it's obviously trying to hold on to the original plan although the viewers want something else.
- The gender bender is not done convincingly. It just doesn't feel authentic and messes a bit with the overall atmosphere.
- The story is very black and white and so are the characters. The bad people are too bad and the good to good. Makes for a predictable and generic story.
