The Cynic | |
| Our Blues / int_1b70ccc6 | comment |
The Cynic: The tragic deaths of Chun-hui's husband and sons has left her with quite a gloomy outlook on life. The successes of her last surviving son, the kindness of her daughter-in-law and the warmth of her granddaughter managed to downplay this though. Unfortunately, upon learning of her son being in a critical state due to a car accident she immediately slips back into this mindset. Her rant to Eun-gui pretty much sums it up. | |

Above the Influence: Invoked by Jeong-jun and Yeong-ok, who promise each other that they won't sleep together while drunk as it means their relationship will be "tainted by alcohol". When both of them sober up, they're visibly overjoyed and later consummate the relationship | |

Granny Classic: Kang Ok-dong and Hyeon Chun-hui are both sweet old ladies who love to cook, don't have a bad bone in their body, love their grandchild (for Chun-hui anyway) and love the company of others. When Yeong-joo and Hyung are booted from their parents' houses, they're the only ones who let the young couple spend the night at their house. | |

| Our Blues / int_319a6fd7 | comment |
When Dong-seok goes to his mom's house in the finale, we see that she's sleeping and has cooked his favorite stew for him. He tastes it and calls it delicious...but upon panning over to Ok-dong we see that she's absolutely motionless and her body has started to go pale. Her stomach cancer has finally claimed her life. | |

Gentle Giant | |
| Our Blues / int_36c64123 | comment |
Gentle Giant: At 6'2, Jeong-jun towers over most of Purueng Village's denizens. Despite this, he's a pretty kindhearted and approachable guy who loves Yeong-ok despite the malicious rumors surrounding her. The same goes for his brother, Park Ki-jun who doesn't judge his love interest Byeol-i for being deaf. Probably has something to do with the fact that the two had loving parents, a nice home and a normal childhood, something which most of the cast lack. | |

Broken Tears: Upon seeing Yeong-hui's paintings of her and their parents, Yeong-ok starts crying. It isn't until she sees Yeong-hui's paintings of both of them does she cry broken tears, realizing that for somebody to paint this good they have to be very lonely. Yeong-ok has attempted to get away from her at every chance she gets. Everyone in the finale starts crying after hearing the news of Ok-dong's death. This is especially true for Dong-seok, who sobs heavily while hugging her dead body. | |

Their fathers do not take it well, with Ing-won even trying to drag Yeong-ju to a hospital where the baby can be aborted. In the end, the fathers choose to let their children have the baby. | |

Wham Shot: The reveal of who has been calling Yeong-ok. The caller initially has her back turned to the camera, before we get a good look at her. She's shown to have Down syndrome and looks a lot like Yeong-ok, explaining Yeong-ok's drive to get money. When Dong-seok goes to his mom's house in the finale, we see that she's sleeping and has cooked his favorite stew for him. He tastes it and calls it delicious...but upon panning over to Ok-dong we see that she's absolutely motionless and her body has started to go pale.

Yeong-ju's pregnancy is at first only known to Hyeon and Yeong-ju herself. After their visit to the OB-GYN however, one of their classmates finds out while Eun-hui starts to suspect something. After this, they reveal it to their dads who don't take it well. Purueng High School as a whole is soon informed of her pregnancy, while the whole town finds out when Ho-sik blurts it out during his confrontation with Ing-won at the market. | |

Deconstructed when it's revealed that they reason why Myeong-bo is so weak-willed around his wife is because she is abusing him. He's been putting up with it for some time, but finally leaves her during the events of Episode 14. | |

Put on a Bus: Han Su leaves the show in Episode 3 after being exposed by his "friends" for lying and to reconnect with his newly-arrived family. He does tell Eun-Hui that he might return to Jeju sometime. Seon-a also disappears from the narrative in Episode 11, albeit on a much better note than she was before thanks to Dong-seok. She does make brief cameos though in Episodes 15 and 17. | |

Dude Magnet: Yeong-ok has a lot of admirers thanks to her good looks. She dated many of these men in the past, but none of those relationships panned out. Jeong-jun wonders if he can make it work. The attractive and slender Ko Mi-ran constantly attracts attention from the opposite gender, to the point that Eun-hui is forced off the stage when singing with her to make way for more men. The only one who isn't smitten with her is Ho-sik, who instead hates her due to her treatment of Eun-hui. | |

Inspirationally Disadvantaged: Averted for Byeol-i, who despite being deaf works a normal job at a coffee stand and is not particularly more talented or smarter than anyone in Purueng Village. Downplayed with Yeong-hui, who has Down syndrome. While she can draw and paint really well, she's more or less just a regular person with hopes, dreams and aspirations of her own. | |

Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: Both the hot-headed Eun-hui and the self-loathing Han-su have a soft spot for their mothers. Averted for Dong-seok, who openly hates his mother and verbally berates her several times throughout the series. This becomes the case by the end though, where he sobs uncontrollably while cradling her corpse. The death of Ing-won's mother is one of the catalysts for him quitting organized crime. He is quite pissed off when Dong-seok badmouths her. | |

Purueng High School as a whole is soon informed of her pregnancy, while the whole town finds out when Ho-sik blurts it out during his confrontation with Ing-won at the market. | |

The Napoleon | |
| Our Blues / int_d080f396 | comment |
The Napoleon: Eun-hui is noticeably shorter than the rest of the cast, and has a short fuse to boot. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Ing-won, Ho-sik and Eun-hui all call out Dong-seok for being indifferent to the news of his mother having cancer. | |

Decoy Protagonist | |
| Our Blues / int_df410b77 | comment |
Decoy Protagonist: Han-su and Eun-hui take center stage for the first three episodes, but in Episode 3 Han-su leaves for Seoul to reconnect with his family (leaving the story in the process) while Eun-Hui is relegated to basically being the Team Mom of the cast. She only regains the spotlight in the episodes involving Mi-ran. | |

Abusive Offspring | |
| Our Blues / int_e5e5d228 | comment |
Abusive Offspring: Dong-seok is of the verbal kind, constantly berating Ok-dong for even trying to speak to him. | |

Clingy Jealous Girl | |
| Our Blues / int_eb5b71fe | comment |
Clingy Jealous Girl: Ing-jeon is shown to be constantly paranoid of her husband, Myeong-bo, cheating on her. This puts her at odds with Mi-ran. Deconstructed during Mi-ran and Eun-hui 2, where it's revealed that her jealousy has led to her physically abusing Myeong-bo. The abuse has left Myeong-bo with scars all over his back and a left foot filled with broken toenails. He would later leave her, with their daughter even agreeing with her father's decision. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Mi-ran's attempt to comfort the constantly abused and mistreated Myeong-bo by hugging him ends with her friendship with Eun-hui being completely shattered. She's able to repair it later though. | |

Locked Out of the Loop | |
| Our Blues / int_f06b07ff | comment |
Locked Out of the Loop: Played for Laughs when Eun-hui exclaims in Episode 16 that she has been unaware of Yeong-ok and Jeong-jun being in a relationship, despite it being incredibly obvious that they're in love. Dong-seok is the only one in Episode 17 who does not know of Man-su being in a critical state. He's also nowhere to be seen when the cast try to call in as many favors as possible to get Eun-gi and Chun-hui across the sea and to Mokpo. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Our Blues / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: An alarming amount of characters have some pretty tragic and heartbreaking pasts. Dong-seok. Growing up a poor boy who saw his father and sister die at sea, he absolutely loathed his mother and made sure not to turn out like her. A month after his sister's death, his mother remarried and he was forced to move into his stepfather's house. He was beaten regularly by his stepbrothers, which was seemingly ignored by his mother. Running away from his stepfather's house, he tried to make something of himself in Seoul while never going back to Jeju. This failed, and he was forced to go back to the island he always hated to make a living. Seon-a's mother died when she was very young, and her father spiraled into drinking and later committed suicide right in front of her. And then came the bouts of depression following her father's death, which manifested as the whole world being engulfed in darkness. Yeong-ok was born to a pair of former artists, who were forced to sell clothes in Dongdaemun due to falling on hard times. They overworked themselves into a car accident when she was 12 years old, leaving poor Yeong-ok an orphan with a disabled sister to take of. Kang Ok-dong's past prior to Dong-seok's birth is elaborated upon in the finale. Her parents died when she was either six or seven, with her older brother following suit when she was fourteen. The fact that Dong-seok can relate to her past (has a dead parent and sibling) is what makes him pity her. | |

Pet the Dog | |
| Our Blues / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Park Hye-ja is one of the haenyos that saves Seon-a from drowning. She's even the one that alerts Captain Park to Seon-a falling into the water. Hye-ja also defends Yeong-hui when one of the haenyos discriminates against her and calls the latter "slow". She has an autistic granddaughter, so she knows how hard it can be. | |
