– Becoming Witch Episode 8 Review Contains Mild Spoilers –

Becoming Witch Episode 8 opens with a shot of Jin-a and Ma-ri driving in a car, wondering what would happen if they could go in the past and choose differently. We come to the portion where we left off our the previous episode at. Su-ji is back home and Ma-ri and Nak-gu hide Go-eun and pretend to be together. However, Go-eun does not keep quite and soon enough Su-ji finds her.

It is a war of hair pulling posts that where we see Su-ji grab Go-eun by her hair and pull her. Go-eun attacks her back and seeks support from Nak-gu, where the latter is in a pickle between choosing his daughter and love. Ultimately, he ends up shouting at Su-ji, upsetting her. And, Nak-gu and Ma-ri sleep in the same bed. On waking up the next morning, they are scared and shocked at the development.

Another addition to the scene is Ma-ri and Nak-gu’s mothers both coming to the house and hitting Nak-gu for what he is doing. They question Go-eun and get into a verbal conflict with both Nak-gu and Go-eun. The family finally decided to put the situation of divorce to vote and we see one bribing another family member. Ultimately it comes down to everyone agreeing to the divorce, except two people.

It turns out later the two people are Ma-ri and Go-eun. Latter we see Go-eun leave Nak-gu. We don’t know why she breaks off things but, Nak-gu threatens to kill Ma-ri if she does not get Go-eun back as he suspects Ma-ri has done something to break things off. But, Ma-ri isn’t scared but, convinced that things will get over only if one of them dies.

Meanwhile, Jin-a throws off Woo-bin from the terrace as we have seen in the last episode. However, he is saved after he falls into a pool and is pulled out. Jin-a gets her investment back from Du-chang the next day but, is tempted to put her money into investing in cryptocurrency. They invest all the money they have and, on the launch of the cryptocurrency ‘Civa Coin’, their money skyrockets with the growth rate of the coin.

But, when the coin crosses the 3000 mark the internet goes off and it is chaos. Du-chang is nowhere to be found but, he assures on the call that things are okay and that everyone should go home. The next day, Jin-a and Woo-bin go to look for Du-Chang’s Civa Coin office. While looking for the office, Jin-a gets a call from an Insurance Investigator who knows about Woo-bin being alive and not reported. On reaching the potential office, it turns out to be a toilet paper factory and it is apparent that Du-chang has scammed them and the other investors.

Hui-si’s shock of knowing she cannot get pregnant leaves her devasted and also the fact that Mu-young has known about this since her first miscarriage. We don’t see much of her in this episode but, only her interacting with her IVF doctor and his kid outside the hospital and school, respectively. It turns out Hui-su is suffering from cancer as she gets diagnosed after she mistakes her symptoms for pregnancy.

She goes for a dine-out with Mu-young where she gets the property papers which she says will serve as her alimony. Mu-young suggests that she is rushing into the divorce things. Hui-su does not reveal about her divorce but, says how she has wasted her time with Mu-young and is not ready to waste another second. The entire conversation is quite hurtful to witness.

The two visit the family court and get their divorce finalized. Hui-su there after goes on a shopping spree to buy children’s clothes and spend some alone time together.

Although at times, I thought the drama was so over the top, I still enjoyed it. Ma-ri's divorce was inevitable and I don't really abide by the belief that a couple should stay together because of the children, even when the love/respect has gone.

The series delivered on what it promised: a divorce, a pregnancy and a death. It was consistent with its dark humor during the course of its run. It was an entertaining and fun show.

All of the story lines wrapped up neatly. Ma-Ri got divorced on her favorable terms because she was one step ahead of her husband. Jin-A got her money back but her real treasure was having a daughter and a reformed husband. Hee Soo got to live her life on her terms.

What really went through my head during the finale was the mental comparison to THIRTY NINE, another show that featured three women dealing with personal issues and friendship when reaching age 40. In fact, it had the same terminal disease friend saying to the others “to remain close friends” after she was gone. But WITCH did that story line so much better.

While THIRTY NINE’s Chan-Young’s (JMD) illness story was overwhelmed by Mi-Jo’s (SYS) annoying angst, interference and dull romance, Hee Soo finally solved her own fate on her own to live her final months her own terms. In fact, WITCH allowed the FLs their own individual story arcs to navigate without deep interference from their friends. In the end, they were supportive of their personal choices.

Jin A realized on her own that she had to grow up to be a responsible mother. Even though she was scammed by her landlady, and lost most of her money bailing out her husband, she finally found stability in a family. Ma-Ri was more over-the-top than Nak Gu because she had to be; she was one step of ahead of his craziness. Crazy was in their make-up as school girls thinking the world would end with Y2K decide to take on a bully gang because they were going to die anyway. It was a nice tie in to wrap up the Oracle story, as her daughter Jang Mi was the one being bullied.

Film students might find the overt lesson a bit trite. Becoming a Witch meant that for a woman in a conservative patriarchal society to take control of her own life, she has to rebel and challenge the men in her life. Hee Soo’s strong will power got her ex-husband Mu-Young to ACCEPT her decisions that led to a peaceful end. Jin A strength and common sense got her husband Woo Bin to CHANGE into a caring and loving husband and father. Mar-Ri’s punch and counterpunch fight with NakGu got her closure to the pain in her life while Nak Gu GOT WHAT HE DESERVED for abandoning her during the hour of her desperate need (miscarriage) then having a humiliating open, public affair.

The ending was a little choppy so as I watched it I wondered if parts were re-shot without some of the cast (being told instead of show the conclusion). But that really does not affect the satisfactory ending to the show. The series had humor, slapstick, compelling stories and side arcs that did not interfere with the FLs friendship. As I look at my completed list of 2022 dramas, this show is in the Top 4.

Three women in their 40s reach a breaking point as their already-frustrating lives go completely off the rails.

– Becoming Witch episode 1 Recap Contains Spoilers –

Becoming Witch episode 1 starts with three friends, Ma-ri, Hui-su and Jin-a, peeing in the middle of a field and are almost caught by the police. The scene highlights their relationship as being extremely close since they have grown up together.

Still From Becoming Witch Episode 1

As the friends meet sometime later and things at first get off on a tense foot between Ma-ri and Jin-a, but things get back to normal once the misunderstandings are cleared up, and they start chatting about what’s been going on for so long.

We get a glimpse into Ma-ri’s life – she has an overbearing mother-in-law who hates her guts for getting married to her son and also has a daughter in college. Hui-su, meanwhile, has some fertility problems and is having issues with her husband regarding their lack of intimacy. Jin-a, on the other hand, has come across some money, but no one knows how.

One fine day, while cleaning the apartment in Becoming Witch episode 1, Ma-ri discovers strands of hair on her husband’s things and thinks back to Oracle’s predictions about her husband probably being a cheater. She thinks nothing of it, but while checking through their PC, she finds porn in an unnamed folder and is left absolute fuming. Meanwhile, her husband, Nak-gu, is facing his own issues at work.

Jin-a, on the other hand, is getting gassed by salespersons and buying extremely expensive shoes. We learn here in a flashback that she got married to U-bin, who was extremely sought after by everyone, but it turns out he was not a good person. Hilariously, he apparently drowned while being chased by creditors. However, it seems like things worked out for Jin-a in the end because her worthless husband’s life insurance policy helped her get out of the rut!

Anyway, Ma-ri confronts her husband, who immediately gaslights her into thinking that it’s her fault that she has to look at porn and that married couples should have to get divorced after 10 years together. He then proposes that they should get divorced, and when Ma-ri brings up the point that he was the one who desperately tried to marry her, he gaslights her some more.

Meanwhile, Jin-a gets agitated at the thought of a rapist doing the rounds in her neighbourhood and arms herself. The next day, as Ma-ri tries to see a divorce lawyer, her mother catches her outside the door and brings her home to shame her without even asking why she went in the first place. In a flashback, we see the abuse that she went through at her mother’s hands, who doesn’t even acknowledge her birthday.

However, she has great friends who celebrate with her, and she discusses the divorce debacle with them. On the other hand, Nak-gu gets shocked when he learns that a tabloid has quoted him having an affair with a younger woman, shocking both him and his show’s producer.
