Freshly out of my drama slump, I sat down to watch this back from where I left it and was so deeply moved by the drama, finding it heartwarming and relatable. I got into it soo deep that couldn't stop myself [11eps back to back><] until I finished this piece of a wonderful story. It really is necessary to praise the well-developed characters, particularly the father-son relationship and their bromance. All the actors' performances were also laudable, adding depth to the characters. The drama's nostalgic setting of 1995, with its use of old technology and references to the past, created a sense of authenticity. Specially the pager and the FAX machine. I would have never known how cool were FAX machines until now. All of it was so fascinating to know and learn about. The incorporation of the sign language and deaf characters and their portrayal was so well executed, normalizing their presence. The drama's soundtrack was just another level. So beautiful and pleasantly infused into the story. It really felt like the music perfectly captured the emotions of the story and left a lasting impression. No matter if you understand the lyrics or not, you will feel the song within yourself and the emotions it expresses. This drama really made me realise how beautiful is youth and how much of my youth I missed by not living that time of my life to the fullest. This drama really made me laugh and cry(both happy and sad tears) This drama will stay in my heart for a while. Definitely gonna go into my best drama of all time list. No wonder this drama was trending for such a long time even after it had finished airing.
Overall, I highly recommend this drama for its engaging storyline, strong performances, beautiful soundtrack, and heartwarming themes.
