REVIEW:

I actually don't have plan on watching Sky castle just because of the title of the drama. I just don't find watchable and also I'm not familiar with the casts and because of that reason of mine, I'd like to apologize for judging the drama because of its title. I know that the drama is famous and some of the artist do a parody of it but because of my petty reason, it didn't reach my interest that time.

I started watching the drama because I can't find a drama that can suit my interest for now, so I just tried watching it last Monday and now I'm hook to this drama. I didn't know that it will give big impact to me. I can relate and empathize with the characters. Although I didn't experience that kind of life, I can still feel what they're feeling. I tried to imagine if I were in their shoes and I think I can't stand that kind of life. I can't imagine myself for being force to be the top in everything. I can't imagine myself for being a robot of my own family. I can not imagine that I would force myself to fulfill the goals that my family didn't achieve and for fulfilling that, it makes them happy but happiness is at stake and it will make me suffer and lonely. And I can't also imagine that my own family can do that to me.

MORAL LESSON: Huwag mong ipasa o ipaako sa anak mo ang mga bagay na gusto mo na hindi mo naachieve. Ang mga estudyante ay tao lang din. Napapagod din sila. Hindi sila robot na pwede mong ipagawa sa kanila ang lahat. And most importantly, don't expect too much and don't set high standard your child. Hindi sila robot or system na dapat alam lahat.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO WATCH 'SKY CASTLE' TO EVERYONE. IT'S AN EYE OPENER TO ALL ESPECIALLY TO ALL THE PARENTS.

RATE: 10/10
