This Time, I Choose My Real Daughter

Synopsis

Yvonne, chairwoman of the Lu Group, raised her adopted daughter Larissa and doted on her. Her own daughter Melantha had gone missing as a small child, and she and her husband Logan put all of their affection into Larissa instead. Yvonne watched over her until she turned 18. Even after Melantha was found, Yvonne kept favoring Larissa, and went as far as giving her the right to inherit the Lu Group. Larissa began to fear that things might change later and set out to kill her. As she lay dying Yvonne saw what Larissa was. She swore that if she had another life she would make up for what she had denied Melantha and show everyone what Larissa was really like. She opens her eyes three years in the past. This time she decides first that Melantha will inherit the Lu Group, and at her own birthday party she announces it and lays out what Larissa has done, the bullying and the deceit. Logan and his mother take Larissa's side. Larissa is in fact Logan's own daughter, born to a mistress. Yvonne files for divorce from Logan and cuts herself off from the Lu family.

Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<

My favorite of his modern-set work and honestly my favorite short drama full stop. You get the complete unhinged-psycho performance, and I'd say his acting leveled up here. If you're working through his filmography, this is the one.

The plot is hard to follow and never really comes together. With all the flashbacks and dream sequences, the pacing has no tension at all…
