Just finished the recent 2 episodes of "Oh! My Girl!". Honestly, there wasnt anything to tempt me to watch it, other than to pass time while having lunch. As expected, there was barely a twitch in my expression throughout. There is nothing wrong with the acting, its just uninteresting script, that borders along the line of "preaching" family values and raising a precocious kid... As such, summary will be relatively short, since there is barely any excitement to blog about... am seriously considering to stop summary of this drama series to save my time for other drama.Oh My Girl 03 Summary
The story revolves around Ann's manager and her father. Worried about her, he travelled down and ended up staying at Ann's place. Wanting to prove her worth and that she does well her dream job, she ended up organising some event with a korean celebrity. Obviously the event failed as the celebrity was supposed to be fickled -minded and went home despite promising his appearance. So Ann ended up picking up the slack voluntarily to help her manager, saving the event from being a major bomb and appeasing those fans who appeared. The manager's father was relieved and went home. All is well again.
Oh My Girl 04 Summary
Ann got jealous of Kotoro spending so much time with his female's colleague's son. While writing an article on "Playing fatherly role for a day", Kotoro gained much insight and fun while babysitting the boy. Meanwhile his colleague decided to resign and skip time, to escape from her persistent ex-husband who wanted to see his son. Kotoro's female colleague denied his request as he had lost all their savings back then when he lost his job despite she was pregant. She found it unforgiveable of him and would not want her son to ever meet the sort of person he is.
Meanwhile, Ann made all sort of demands to Kotoro such as manicure, rushing to buy DVD, buy pasta so that she can disrupt his time with the boy. Finally at one point, Ann threw the boy's bento the floor and angered Kotoro. When the little boy went missing, Kotoro rushed out to search for him despite Ann's request not to. In fit of anger/ tantrum, Ann hit the table lamp off table and it set of a fire in the house due to the scattered feathers from the pillow that Ann was flinging ard to vent her frustrations.
Kotoro rushed home, relieved Ann was fine. However he lectured Ann to apologised for her mistake as he really cared for her and wanted to ensure she grow up with the right guidance, without indulging her bad habits/ tantrums. Knowing Kotoro care for her, Ann made up with him and everyone went on a happy picnic together. (And the colleague didnt quit her job in the end).

[1 Dec Note]: Sorry folks....I am dropping this drama from my detailed summary list from here on, because the drama is too damn G rating and boring. Honestly, the drama appear to only target at idol fans only.... with not much plot or excitement..... :P So I am going to focus on other drama like Bloody monday and Innocent love instead....
After the first episode, I was still debating about whether I wanted to continue watching this drama. It was only so-so with little excitement, plus I wasnt sure if it will proceed as a child centric drama. The only draw was Hayami Mokomichi that kept me going to the following epi. However, after persisting to episode 2, I am still rather undecided, though inclined to continue watching it when I am free.
OH My Girl 01 Review
Basically an intro the character backgrd.
Yamashita Kotaro (mokomichi) was living a peaceful life as a publisher part-timer aspiring to be a mobile phone novelist until his six-year-old celebrity niece Ann is shoved into his life, accompanied by Ann's stern (annoying) manager Mineko. Forced to live under the same roof as the little prodigy, their differences soon manifest and disputes ensue...
During an disagreement, Kotaro told Ann that her mum had abandoned her and Ann ran away. Kotaro in the search of his niece, chanced by the voice recording from Ann to her mother's mobile and discovered Ann's inner loneliness and longing for her mother. As such, he made the decision to accept Ann into his life and care for her, and her dog Biwa.
Oh My Girl 02 Review
The story revolved Kotaro being forced to move (kicked out by landlord) within 3 days when he was discovered to be keeping a dog in his flat which was against the rules. The dog discovery was made when Ann's manager Mineko kicked up a stinker at the landlord and demanded that he solved the "rat/ mouse" issue in Kotaro flat.
Ignoring all requests from Mineko to move to Ann's mother's flat, Kotaro rather took on extra night shift as labourer to earn extra income to move to another older but affordable rental unit. Ann showed no obvious sign of distress and agreed to move so long as she could have her bed and dog, despite Mineko's huge protest about the unsuitability of the older unit.
Kotaro was excited about his first big official assignment project about interview of a school musical band, and their last performance in a parade before the school gets torn down. the night before the event, he was sharing the piece of news with Ann over dinner when he received a call from the school band teacher. Unexpectedly, the weather forecast 70% chance of rain and the parade will be called off as the children cannot perform in the rain! Kotaro was hugely distressed as he had not prepared for a backup plan/ article and was reprimanded by his editor.
That night, heavy rain poured and Kotaro fell asleep at his desk while praying for a sunny day the next day. When his notebook dropped, Ann picked it up and saw his greatest wish for fine weather and she made a decision.
The next day, Kotaro was excited about the sunny weather and happily went on with his interview. Ann on the hand fainted on set and was hospitalised. Mineko called Kotaro who refused to rush to hospital immediately as Ann was asleep already and he had to finish his assignment. When he arrived, he had a huge fight with Mineko and left. While packing for the move, he chanced upon the handmade"good weather" toy hanging by the window. Ann had stayed up the whole night praying for sunny weather for Kotaro. Realising his wrong assumptions about Ann, he raced to the hosiptal and apologised to a sleeping Ann.
When Ann was discharged, her manager brought her to the Kotaro's empty apartment and told her that Kotaro must have selfishly left Ann behind and went ahead to the new rented place. Hence she convinced Ann to move back to her own place and Mineko offered to stay with her and look after her instead. Ann quietly went along.
While waiting for the cab driver to issue the receipt, Ann looked up and saw the weather toy she made for Kotaro hanging by her own balcony! She happily dashed back and found Kotaro inside unpacking the boxes, as well as her dog Biwa. Kotaro had decided to think of Ann's emotional state and put aside his own personal resentment against his sister, thus moving in to Ann's place. Meanwhile, Mineko had to live with them as she had already return her own rented apartment!
