I DO I DO :  A REVIEW  -  LOVING LIFE…LIVING LOVE

It is hard not to be charmed by this drama.  What with the commendable performance of the lead stars – Kim Sun Ah and Lee Jang Woo -  and ably supported by the side characters, one cannot help but be drawn to it. It might not be the best of Kim Sun Ah’s many dramas but it has an appeal of its own.  It’s liberating to see a drama that doesn’t solely rely on melodrama nor excessive acting nor mind-blowing  experience to push the story forward. It is not just a love story nor just a family drama. It may be labeled as a rom-com but it is not shallow.  In fact, its underlying theme is an issue rarely openly discussed more so in a society that puts premium on filial piety.  It is a story of a one woman’s struggle to keep her respect and dignity amidst the pressure of work and familial duties and the moralistic views of society.

Hwang Ji An is a successful career-driven woman in her mid-30’s.  Through sheer hard work, skill and determination she has effectively swung her company from nonentity to one of the top in the world of high-fashioned shoes.  When it comes to work, she is ruthless.  She does not compromise with copycats especially not in her type of work where originals matter. To Hwang Ji An the world is spelled S-H-O-E-S. She breathes shoes and nothing else.  She is on top of her game and rightfully so is looking forward to a bright future ahead.

Enter Park Tae Kang, a young man just barely into college, armed with youthful charisma and a kind heart.  As fate destines it, the two collided, literally, when Tae Kang ran over Ji An as she was hurriedly running off to her next destination.  That collision triggered  the succeeding chain of events in the lives of our protagonists. On the same day they’ve met, the two bonded over one drinks too many which eventually led to an act that would forever change them.  And that one fateful night altered the course of their lives.

The Road Less Traveled

“I took the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” – Robert Frost

A salute is in order for the writer/director of this drama.  To present a subject not commonly talk about takes a lot of guts.  In spite of the liberal attitude of most nowadays, there are still societies that frown on the idea of a woman bearing child outside of marriage, more so in a society that views marriage as a filial obligation.   The writer tries to tackle the issue of single motherhood, the support and/or lack of it for someone in this situation by presenting a glimpse into a one woman’s struggle to stand on her own outside of the norm – how she is dealing with parental and societal pressures with regards to marriage while balancing a career, setting priorities, weighing options, making choices and how these affect her personal life and the lives of those around her.  The writer, in the guise of a rom-com, poses a subject of concern and, hopefully, that eventually society has to face and address.

As a result of that spur-of-the-moment incident, Hwang Ji An finds herself pregnant. But marriage is not in her ‘to-do’ lists. Not just because the father of the child has no knowledge of it but because she has no time for it.  To Hwang Ji An, she’s married to her job.  And this is where her dilemma begins, not that of getting married but whether to let Park Tae Kang know.  With the onset of her pregnancy looms the threat to her flourishing career.

Life is Making Choices

“The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.”  - Albert Einstein

The choice to tread the path least taken is big step for Hwang Ji An. For someone who, for the longest time, has been living on her own, accustomed to a life of aloneness and independence is now faced with a condition that would eventually test both her personal life and career.   She is a woman who is in control of her world, decisive and precise. She knows what she wants and knows how to get them.  This time she now finds herself stepping into a new path, strewn with uncertainties and anxieties, and the newness of it engulfs her but she never vacillates.  Because she is a woman who is not easily cowed to submission, Hwang Ji An resolves to take on the challenge, armed with a resolute determination, the same attitude that has propelled her to the top of her game. And so, Hwang Ji An decides to walk alone. 

“You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.” - Winston Churchill 

Her decision to take on her pregnancy without the benefit of marriage is met with dismay and scorn.  Understandably, her family was not happy of her decision.  People at work mock her behind her back.  And so, the obstinate Hwang Ji An realizes that one cannot control what other people think of her, that she simply cannot be liked by everybody no matter how much she tries.  Whether she likes it or not, there will always be people who will continue talking about her and the “inappropriate” way she is behaving or living.   But then, she decides it’s her life not theirs and so she chooses to dictate her own life… married or not, she’s keeping her child.

Living Life Without Regrets...The Choices We Make

“I would much rather have regrets about not doing what people said, than regretting not doing what my heart led me to and wondering what life had been like if I’d just been myself.”  - Brittany Renée

Many times we just assumed that life should be lived according to what traditions say.  Too often we live within the perimeter of our comfort zone not daring to go beyond the line, afraid of what lurks beyond.  Knowing what is expected, we fall into the pit of ease and comfort thus pushing a majority of us to live a predictable life. We become so attached to the comfort that we fall trap to a routinary life.  When realization hits us and we begin to ponder and contemplate how time flies, we then grasp in apprehension life has passed us by.  By the time we figure out what happened we are already white-haired and wrinkled, looking back with regrets all the things we should have done.

Rather than be trapped in a world of pretense, Hwang Ji An breaks the rules and chooses to follow her heart.  By choosing to proceed with her pregnancy and keep her child, she acknowledges her femininity and embraces her womanhood.  In the process of doing so, she eventually opens her self to love – love for self and love for life – loving herself, loving Tae Kang, loving her parents, loving her workers, loving the people around her, loving her child, loving her life.  She has not allowed fear to take hold of her – fear of what people will say, fear of loosing her job, fear of taking a shot in love – and in the end she learns that in living life with love, she gets what she gives out and it returns to her ten folds.  She knows that life isn’t a bed of roses but she has learned to enjoy its sweetness thorns included.  No matter what life has to offer, be it roses or lemons, she has the power to choose.

I just wanted to say that this drama was one of the most refreshing and likeable dramas that I've seen for 2012.  I just started watching Kdramas about two years ago.  I've seen many since watching Goong and Coffee Prince.  As you can tell I am a big Yoon Eun Hye fan.  But getting back to I Do, I Do.  I really loved this drama and couldn't wait to see the next episode. I've watch this drama twice over the summer.  Kim Sun Ah and Lee Jang Woo were an excellent pairing.  The actor who played the Doctor (sorry, can't remember his name).  He was great too.  Actually, everyone did a wonderful job in the drama.  Lee Jang Woo's aboji and Kim Sun Ah's aboji were funny characters.  Love this drama and loved the OST too!  I have the soundtrack to this drama and listen to it lots.  I can't wait to buy the drama on Blue ray or DVD.  It would be great to have a season two, but it's probably unlikely.  Korean dramas rarely have a second season.  I wonder why?  Oh well...two thumbs up for this very cute and funny rom-com.

MBC rebroadcasted the series this year.  When it first came on in 2012 I only saw the last two episodes.   I was up one morning last week and saw what I later found out was Episode 11.  I then went to various streaming sites until I found all sixteen episodes with subtitles.  Originally I intended to watch those episodes until I caught up with the television broadcast schedule.  Instead I watched all sixteen episodes over a weekend.  It followed the traditional formula.   The bad person redeems herself and temporarily leaves the country for the turkey farm (칠면조 농장 ) in the United States.
