A short but sweet story about a love that makes us braver.
If you have ever experienced that moment when you let an animal into your heart and you intrinsically know that there is nothing you wouldn't do for them because your life wouldn't be the same without them... this miniseries might speak to you.The story introduces some interesting topics for discussion about the cruelty of humans and the societal issues that exacerbate poor mental health, but the very short runtime leaves little room for in-depth exploration. Instead, these two episodes use the time to focus more on the ways that Seulgi and Lea help each other through their fears. It may not break new ground, but it's heartwarming to see.
Admittedly, there is nothing particularly special or outstanding about the soundtrack, but it does feel comfortable and fit the mood of each scene very well. Also, look, I understand that there is an objective way to rate the acting/cast here, but they put the cutest little dog in front of me and my heart is soft! All 10 stars go to Lea for digging my heart out of the trash and running away with it!
So, if you're looking for a helping of fluff that packs a bit of an emotional punch and doesn't ask for a huge time commitment, consider checking this one out!

Hard-hitting and precious
"When I wake up in the morning, I wonder if I'm qualified to open my eyes."Female lead Seulgi has been beaten down by life just a few too many times. With no one listening to her pleas for help, not even her family, her ability to go outside gradually decreased until she could no longer step outside of her apartment. She had been in this state of living for the past 2.25 years before a Lia wandered into her life. Lia, a sock-loving dog with a technological device that allows her to talk, settles into Seulgi's life easily and adapts into a sort of Emotional Support Animal for her.
Seulgi's pain felt all too real for me, both in dialogue and performance. And it was beyond precious seeing her try to be the best person she can for Lia. It's a cute healing microdrama.
However, the story introduced an extra point of tension to the climax that the story didn't really need, and currently shows no signs of possessing an episode 3 to resolve it.
