Drama Special Season 15: To My Lonely Sister (2024)

Emotional and Heartwarming: A Hidden Gem

I really enjoyed this film. Initially, I noticed the low ratings on MDL and saw that not many people had watched it, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. But despite that, I loved the storyline, and since it was only one hour long, I decided to give it a try. At first, I wasn’t fully convinced by the lead actress’ performance, as I didn’t quite feel the emotional depth I expected. This story had so much potential for big emotions. However, the actors are young, and after about 30 minutes, I found myself crying—so clearly, they did an amazing job bringing the story to life.

I especially appreciated the bond between the sisters. You could really see how much the sister cared for the protagonist and how much effort she put into supporting her. The father’s character also stood out to me; he was such a sweetheart and truly understood the struggles of living with anthropophobia. It was so moving to see his empathy.

Another powerful aspect was the portrayal of being a 'glass child,' which added a deep layer to the story. Despite its short runtime, the show really managed to pack a punch. I would love to see more series exploring this topic.

Overall, it was a really nice watch. While the acting could have been stronger in some moments, I still loved it and found it very touching.

This made me sob!

Such a heart touching story told in just one hour. Every thing about was perfect, the actors did an excellent job I could feel every emotion portrayed by the sisters, Haneul seemed genuinely concerned and hurt by her sister's condition, and I could feel the love in the father's eyes just wonderful. I cried hard throughout last few scenes.

The music suited every scene and Kim Yang provided just the right amount of humor to an otherwise devastating story without making a mockery of such a serious matter.

I highly recommend, it's one of if not the best of these specials in my humble opinion.
