Overall Thoughts on Chip-In Korean Drama:
I really enjoy watching this Korean drama there is suspense, mystery, but there are a lot of emotional scenes also especially in the last 2 episodes. I literally cry in the last 2 episodes. In Ho was really a bad person because he considered people his toy and play with their emotions, but still, when he dies, I feel sad and crying. Chip-In Korean drama gives us a life lesson to enjoy your life and don’t waste your precious time on hatred and jealousy. And my favorite characters in Chip-In Korean drama are Bit Na’s mother Kim Ji Hye and the housekeeper lady, Mrs. Park because they are the comedy package of the drama.
I really like how this drama end, because I was not expecting such an ending from this drama everyone resolves their misunderstanding toward each other. Bit Na and Seol Young were also able to resolve their bitterness towards each other, and in the end, Seol Young leaves Bit Na with the wish that enjoy her life, and not waste it in hatred as she did. I highly recommend this drama to everyone.
