Mommy Mother Boogie

ママハハ・ブギ   엄머 어머니 부기   姥姥加油!

60 min. x 12 eps.|12 episodes

This is not a typical heartwarming tale of the love between a mother and daughter. Be prepared for a knock-down, drag-out fight, where stranger is pitted against stranger in a battlefield called “home.” The heroine is an uncoordinated, fun-loving woman who is used to having her own way and could never be mistaken as the model mother. In spite of herself, she discovers how to love and care for a daughter who defies convention. It’s not easy, but it is uproariously fun.

Dragonfly

とんぼ   잠자리   蜻蜓

90 min. x 1 ep. / 60 min. x 7 eps.|8 episodes

This is the story of a rebellious young man who is trapped in a violent existence and nevertheless tries to do what he feels is right. The main character is a member of a yakuza gang who is quick to strike back at things he dislikes and just as quick to correct what he sees to be wrong. His struggle to define and uphold his own code of ethics makes for a deeply searching drama that is far removed from “feel-good” stories about family and parent-child relationships.
