A Getaway For Lost Souls

I never expected anything from this drama. I even thought that it'd be another sport drama like "Weightlifting Fairy : Kim Bok Joo". I was WRONG. This is what you called HUMBLE MASTERPIECE. Here's why..

❤Say no to mediocre, cliche storyline you can find in any K-Dramas. It's refreshing, funny, hilarious, mind blowing and humbling. You'll find yourself smiling from ear to ear and crying in a matter of seconds in every episode (esp towards the end). So if you seek something different, refreshing & heart warming, this drama is your answer

❤Storyline that took focus on every character's daily lives. Just like someone said before in this platform, this drama showed that every person is their own main character in their lives. If you want a getaway from your work or even life itself, this drama will give you some kind like cure for your lost soul.

❤It promotes healthy relationship (the importance of communication & trust), LGBTQI+ awareness & female empowerement. Things that I rarely saw mentioned explicitly in a drama. Bravo!

❤Lovely, cute & beta male characters as mainleads. Really tho, I love how they portrayed both male mainleads to be more gentle, full of emotion & loving than the female mainleads. In contrast, the female mainleads are definitely independent Alpha females with their own badass charms. It's refreshing to see the gender role reversal.

❤The chemistry between the mainleads! 10000/10. Damn, I didn't expect to be blushing & squealing hearing drama dialogues. Seon Gyeoom, he's literally a poet & a flirt with/without him knowing that. His pickup lines or rather I'd say compliments for his gf were just too cute, hot, smart & unique at the same time. Seon Gyeom be lowkey waking up my deep down desire tbh, hahaha..

❤Acts : 1000/10. They're all amazing actors, but for me there should be a special shout out to Im Siwan for bringing Seon Gyeom character alive. He really left me with deep impression with his gentle, loving & nurturing traits. Even tho his character was oftenly misunderstood & even being hated just bcs he's mainly clueless & rather 'hard' to approach, I love to see him break down. Im Siwan was successfully portrayed that. You can learn from his character, to not overly thinking for whatever problem that you encountered on the road. Take your time, take a rest but don't give up. Enjoy the ride of the world that has given you.

For me his character would be the perfect depiction of my dream man/soulmate. Wise, smart, full of principles, family man, loyal, patience, had his own passion/dream, trustful & supportive. Damn even tho his character is awkward & oftenly lost on his own thoughts, but he's very charming in his own way. Just watch it guys, his & Yeong Hwa characters are hilarious to watch! (I also surprised to see Kang Tae Oh acting cutely. Even his cries also cute..)

❤Filmography : 1000/10. The asthetic, the vibe, the beautiful shots. Damn, it's not your typical K-Dramas, people, it's an art..

❤Motivational. Full of beautiful, meaningful & wise quotes from the start till the end. I even wrote down some of its quotes. My favourite would be "Who will be the longest to be with me? It'd definitely be me, myself. Until the day I die, even tho I already found my soulmate, I'll be buried alone, with no one but myself. I don't wanna love myself too much, but I also don't want to lose myself"

❤Bittersweet happy ending but it really showed that's life. Sometimes you just don't know what'll happen in the future. You just have to enjoy the ride and see what world will give to you. You learn from your past mistakes & experiences, to be a better person in the future.

❤If "Because This Is My First Life" , "Fight For My Way" & web dramas on youtube had a 'child' it'd be this drama. Slice of life meets romcom. Relaxing with normal pace drama.

Some criticisms that I should point out :
❤I felt bored on somewhere in the middle of the drama. Some scenes are unnecessary to keep & it caused the dragging.
❤Minor plotholes that matters to detail oriented viewers, but overall it didn't affect the drama.

So what are you waiting for? Looking for motivational, entertaining, sweet & funny drama, you really should watch this drama! Definitely worth your time!

Would rate it 9/10 ❤
