Our Blues Episode 6 Review

Our Blues Episode 6 brings focus to Dong-seok and Seon-a’s story along with a glimpse of Jeong-jun, Yeon-ok and Yeong-ju, Hyun. Shin Min-a has been doing a good job as a depressed person trying hard to change her life. However, the pace of the episode is slow and is a mixture of different emotions. It is difficult to keep a single mood while watching it.

Our Blues is available to watch on Netflix.
