AN AMAZING DRAMA
This drama left me in an emotional wreck after watching it ...
As someone who had recently lost a loved one, I knew i had to prepare myself to watch such an emotionally taxing drama. But once i watched it, i have no regrets at all because it was such a beautiful drama from the colour palettes to the cinematography to the stories that each character had to tell, be it the main/supporting/cameo characters... In fact after watching, i felt like i had received healing from it and learned a few important life lessons. (such as we must give time to allow ourselves to feel and to grieve before moving on)
Each episode has a main story to tell, a character that died and the after effects of it. From the people who find them, to their loved ones and family, even to those seemingly insignificant passer-bys that were a part of their daily lives. My favourite episode was the one with the cellist and also near the end in ep 8, 9, 10... i BAWLED my eyes out so hard. The scene with the shoes got me real good....
Lee Je Hoon is one of my favourite korean actors and he is somehow able to pull off that sloppy uncle character that you cant help but like. He is flippant and lazy which irritates you but then later you will fall for his character as his backstory is revealed and its so crazy at how much emotional turmoil he was hiding away. The acting in this drama was phenomenal and the way Asperger's was represented was also done really well too. (maybe except the main female character whose only other show i watched her in was Navillera as her acting is still a bit awkward and loud). The music score in this drama was also a treat to the ears...
Often times, society has a hard time dealing with the topic and talking about death. And the fact that this drama was able to do it in such a sensitive and delicate manner just blew my mind. Overall, would watch this again maybe once in a while if im in the right mood for it
Would highly recommend everyone to watch this at least once in your life!!!
