Matt Roush says...
“Why do some people in the world manage to survive while others do not?” marvels the elderly Sunja (Yuh-jung Youn) as the acclaimed historical drama based on Min Jin Lee’s novel ends its second season. Back in the 1950s, the younger Sunja (Minha Kim) bids a fond yet bittersweet farewell to her beloved elder son Noa (Kang Tae Joo) as he proudly leaves his Korean family in Osaka to go to university, where his eyes will be opened to an unpleasant and long-buried truth that changes the family forever. As the older Sunja reflects years later, “We were all fools to think the past could be forgotten.”
