hii this is my first review :) hope you'll find it useful!

notes: I started watching "The good bad mother" while on air and i have to say i felt like every single episode was interesting and well-made. If i could, i would have binge-wacthed the whole show.
The thing that you may probably don't think is that this show doesn't have much romance. In fact, it talks about love but not only the one of a romantic relationship, and if you are searching for a rom-com, this isn't what you are looking for.

I liked this show so much and these are the reasons why i would recommend it to everyone:
1. the show makes you understand what the love of a mother really is: the relationship between kang-ho and his mother is made of happy moments and sad moments, but each of them is useful to the development of their relationship. I feel like the story is realistic in this aspect. in each episode you could feel their bond becoming stronger and stronger.
2. the story has a mystery plot that will make you attached to the screen. every episode gives you a little piece of the final puzzle.
3. the acting in this show is sublime: lee do-hyun portraired the perfect choi kangho. but also other actors did the best job. their acting make you understand their feelings, truly.
4. the setting: a peaceful village in the countrysides of korea.
5. the funny moments: even if the show is sad most of the time, it has a satisfying ending and funny moments. i think these scenes are well-balanced.
9. the message of the show: the way they talk about justice and how everyone is going to pay for what they have done at the end.

my overall rating: 9.5 for the acting, the story, the way the story touches your soul

some advises:
don't watch it if you don't want to cry. this show will make you cry lots.
i recommend it if you like lee do-hyun!
