Synopsis
Maeng Sun-yi sacrificed her childhood and youth to taking care of her father, who started drinking heavily after her mother abandoned them when she was 10, and her two younger siblings. She even gave up her own education because she had to work hard to earn her siblings' tuition. She is married to a guy named Ban Sung-moon, her five years junior, and has two daughters with him. Her life continues to present her with endless hardships but she just believes that that is "happiness". One day her husband falls in love with an attractive divorced woman and demands a divorce from Sun-yi.
Sun-yi's younger sister, Maeng Young-yi, is a successful career woman. She dates her first love Lee Jung-do, who is now married to another woman and who broke up with her for the sake of his career in the past.
Finally, Sun-yi's younger brother, Chul-soo, earns his doctorate degree in the United States and settles down there, completely ignoring his responsibility of taking care of his father.
Just to make things worse, Sun-yi is one day diagnosed with cancer, which to her is tantamount to a death sentence. After learning about her disease, her husband reflects on himself and shows her the genuine meaning of marital love.
My comment
This is 1 of the few dramas that actually makes me cry. My mum actually cried over this drama after she borrowed from her friend, and get hooked on watching Korean Drama ever since after watching this drama. Thanks to my mum, that I am watching this drama.
This is the third last drama of Choi Jin-sil before her suicide in 2008, and she is notably the "Korean's National Actress" for her acting.
Maeng Sun-yi is an ordinary housewife married to a man five years her junior, with whom she has two daughters. Her difficult childhood taught her the value of money, which she knows better than anyone else. After years of working tirelessly, she saves enough money to buy her first home in an upscale apartment building. But on the 10th anniversary of their wedding, her husband demands a divorce from her.
She was declared a death sentence when her doctor told her that she had stomach cancer and it is in the final stage. She begin to live the true meaning of life, deciding not to scrimp on everything and leaving the best for her family, especially her two daughter.
Sung-moon is Sun-yi's husband, who falls head over heels in every woman he ever happens to love. He decides to leave his wife, who treats him as a reckless younger brother, for an attractive and cute woman who arouses in him his instinct to protect, and tries to find genuine love in her.
He is the classic depiction of man thinking with their "lower part of the body" instead of the brain. He abandoned his wife, to protect a "innocent woman" that eventually cheated him his money that he loaned from the bank that he is working in. He even accused his wife of faking illness when he saw his wife vomiting blood.
However, he regret when he came to know that his wife is really ill and decided to turn a new life by delivering his promise of giving her a rosy life when he proposed to her for marriage.
It is quite sad, especially the last few episode as it is the last few days of Maeng Sun-yi, and the last words she left on her husband's voice mail when she is dying.
Overall, My Rosy Life is a great melodrama. It is extremely well acted, with a sensational supporting performance by Na Moon-Hee, equally powerful and poignant. This is the most surprisingly powerful Drama of the season.

If by life you were deceived,
Don't be dismal,don't be wild!
In the day of grief, be mild.
Merry days will come, believe.
Heart is living in tomorrow;
Present is dejected here;
In a moment,passes sorrow;
That which passes will be dear.
假如生活欺骗了你，
不要悲伤，不要心急！
忧郁的日子里需要镇静：
相信吧，快乐的日子将会来临。
心儿永远向往着未来，
现在却常是忧郁。
一切都是瞬息，
一切都将会过去，
而那过去了的，
就会成为亲切的怀恋。
- Aleksandr Pushkin
