Dropped: Strong Girl Nam Soon is quite the deviation from Strong Girl Bong Soon (Also Known as: Strong Woman Bong Soon). The drama is a spin off that was looking to capitalize on the popularity of the originator with a bigger budget, shiny cast, and Marvel aspirations. Alas. ..

I really liked the first few episodes and thought the leads had great chemistry. Unfortunately, the FL was too immature for her age for me to take her seriously and after the "mystery" is revealed the story drags. The secondary romance was also kind of weird...

8.5/10: One part comedy, one part dire straits, one part swoony romance.

9.5/10 Stars: A deeply moving exploration of Korea in the midst of Japanese occupation with a subtle, but beautiful romance and characters worth cheering for.
