Netflix’s Little Women Reimagines a Beloved Classic with a Crime Drama Spin

Little Women (2022 Netflix Thriller)

Little Women (2022) is a crime thriller that reimagines Louisa May Alcott’s classic coming-of-age novel with a dark and thrilling twist.

The K-drama follows the Oh sisters, who find themselves embroiled in corporate espionage and a political scandal, with exciting turns including embezzlement, political cover-ups, and murder.

While the plot diverges significantly from the original novel, both stories focus on sisters with distinct personalities navigating their family’s struggles in their own ways.

The K-Drama ‘Little Women’ Is a Story About Sisters

In this adaptation, the Oh sisters each have unique characteristics and aspirations, similar to the March sisters from the novel.

Key to the plot is their relationship with their wealthy great-aunt, Oh Hye-seok, who mirrors Aunt Josephine March from the book.

Oh Hye-seok, who raised one of the sisters, holds a deep disdain for the upper class, contrasting with her sisters’ aspirations to be part of that world.

While the K-drama isn’t a direct adaptation, it cleverly plays with the themes and dynamics from Alcott’s novel.

Little Women (2022) is an exciting crime drama, but knowing the novel’s parallels enriches the experience.

Little Women is available for streaming on Netflix in the U.S.
