Female lead I will never forget

It’s not been a good year for FL, at least for me, but I have a clear winner here: Cha Jung Sook.

It’s not usual to see a FL in their late 40s, and even less usual to see a FL deciding to take a step forwards talking command of her life. Once a woman is a mother she usually loses all her value as a woman, her role changes being the main caregiver in the family: kids, husband, parents, inlaws, all of them come before her.

As a woman in my 50s it was specially refreshing witnessing a woman deciding she’s the most important person in her life and rebuilding it to put her in the center.

Honestly, that is what we all should do. Caring for others doesn’t mean we should forget about oursefves to the point of making our persona vanish into being someone’s wife, mum or daughter.
