" Birthcare Center " mixed comedy and drama masterfully.

The story touched some subjects that aren't easily presented or exposed, such as the struggles that mothers face, as well as those situations that aren't that 'glowing'.

They blended those themes with a comical-tragic character, as she advanced her journey through motherhood, finding it difficult to be happy about it, while struggling to make friends with the other mothers and defending her decision to keep her job position even after she gave birth.

Her dynamics with her main antagonist were spot on and their confrontations were entertaining. The other side characters were interesting as well, and some of them quite tragic.

As for the family drama, that too was realistic and funny at the same time.

So, overall, 8.5 out of 10.

This is actually a great drama for female especially mothers. It teaches the early stage of pregnancy and educates on how to care of a baby. It shows the pains that women go through, during childbirth. Women are to be celebrated everyday.

A fun little drama. Having an entire drama themed around postpartum is something we almost never see in drama. The postpartum club kept things alive while sticking to the theme, rather than spending postpartum at home. It also helps that it was only 8 episodes, otherwise, it would have gotten stale easily. The comedy was decent and kept it light. They actually used real babies which is a must for such a theme. Uhm Ji Won was a great casting choice as the lead mother. I wanted the main couple to have more attention since the drama did a good job starting with them. The other mothers' stories were fine but could've been better.

This is one of my favourite dramas. It's about motherhood, but in a realistic way. There are mothers from different walks of life, some are first time moms some have 2 kids already. Some are young some are not. Celebrity moms and regular moms. It's just beautiful.

I don't have kids and I'm not planning too either, so I was avoiding watching this thinking it's aimed at mothers/parents. I'm happy to say that's not the case, and this series is really good! Funny too! That was really unexpected. Plus it didn't drag, just 8 episodes and it never felt tiring.

In other news, South Korea is really on top of the list when it comes to birthcare. Reading about it too, I was so amazed by the concept of birthcare centers, the rest of the world should really follow suit. Truly the one place on earth any woman would want to give birth. Amazing.

Overall an enjoyable series, also educational.
