"Is this what a real confrontation mom is like? "

Genie TV's original drama 'Riding Life' (directed by Kim Chul-kyu/playwright Sung Yoon-ah Cho Won-dong/planned KT Studio Genie/produced by Betty & Creators) is drawing attention as a daily life of 'Daechi Mom'.

Comedian Lee Soo-ji drew explosive attention with the fake documentary of 「Daechi-dong Jamie Mom」, and even the 「Riding Life」 draws attention.




If many dramas about high school students' entrance exams have been produced so far, 'Riding Life' drew attention with a different story. "Dramas reflect reality."As the saying goes, it has been heating up mom cafes and communities since the first week of its release, including the private education scene of pre-primary kindergarteners, which is the hottest topic these days.

'Riding Life' is a drama about the Daechi-dong life of three generations of mother and daughter who burn 'Ae' when Jeong Eun (Jeon Hye-jin), a passionate working mother, entrusts her mother Jia (Cho Min-soo) to ride the academy ahead of her daughter's '7 year old Gosi'. In the first and second episodes, Jung-eun struggling not to fall behind in Daechi-dong and Jia, who was forced to go on a grandchild's ride, were exciting.

▶"Is this real?"




Above all, 'Riding Life' was at the center of attention because of the reality that I can't believe even when I see it. It depicts the daily life of pre-primary children attending school full of heavy books in wheeled carriers, memorizing the speeches of the British king and discussing English. Riding, which takes children to the academy, has drawn sympathy from mothers these days beyond Daechi-dong. It was enough to arouse a storm of immersion for experienced people and to arouse curiosity for other viewers. In addition, it was filmed at an academy in Daechi-dong, raising the reality. Viewers are asking "Is it really real?" "The reality is worse than the drama."

▶"A timely drama in these days"

The images of children thrown into the competition were alarming. Jung Eun's daughter Seoyun (Kim Sa-rang) says, "I think my mom will like it if I win first place, but it's too hard," he said, creating a sense of emotion with a pure heart to make his mother laugh. Daechi-dong 'English TOP' Minho (played by Kwon Yul) felt sorry for biting his nails under pressure from the speech contest. Attention was focused on what kind of new atmosphere will be formed between the mothers of Daechi-dong in the future by the appearance of Jia looking at the hearts of these children. Viewers responded, "'It's a timely drama at this time of the year.'"




▶"The appearance of working mom Jeongeun touches my heart."

In particular, Jung-eun's running and running between work and childcare called for sympathy and support from not only working mothers but also all mothers. Jung-eun ran down the street to take Seo-yoon to the academy and rode a rollercoaster 'Mom's ticket' and expressed her desire to do anything for her daughter, saying "When you become a mother, it's all over the place. Jung-eun's struggle to find a sitter like picking a star in the sky, and the situation where she had to ask her mother to ride, also drew sympathy as a realistic episode. Jeon Hye-jin's passionate performance of 'Cha-In-One', who is also a working mother, further increased the level of immersion. Attention is focusing on what kind of answer Jung-eun will find in her fierce Daechi-dong life and the story Jeon Hye-jin will draw. Viewers said, "I was also troubled by Jung-eun stomping."I thought it was me. It touches my heart."
