This is like one of the top 10 k-dramas released in the last decade. Recently it also got a US remake offer

That's how good this is - NOT cringey. The new Money Heist Korea - that's a cringey one. This drama is 10 times better than that balanced perfectly between entertaining and realistic - coupled with an exceptional acting from the actress. Enough said.

This is a funny, heartwarming, challenging comedic drama so very well acted by a great ensemble. Of course, as are most of the Korean series, the magnificent cast is supported by one writer and one director throughout all the episodes, so there is meticulous attention to detail and continuity. As with Vincenzo, we all love it!

Extraordinary Writing

Disabilities are still a very real taboo in many countries and Autism Spectrum is still very much misunderstood. This series addresses some of the misconceptions from a first person view. And how difficult it is to engage in a relationship with someone who has autism, no matter how smart they are. From a father's perspective and a lover's perspective.

All the while the series does't only focus on that, but provides some nice legal battles, friendships, power struggles and manipulation "with good intentions". It's brilliantly acted by all of the cast. The lovers relationship feels very real and you can just see why that guy would fall for her.

Higly recommended.

This drama has become my top favorite. The story writers did an awesome job with the heart moving stories in each episode. The directing and character portrayals were superb. I loved the characters and their interrelationships. It totally deserved all the accolades it won at the awards. It was very uplifting and I cried and laughed my way through it. It deserves a place on your library shelf.
