Mr. Plankton

We learn how this Kdrama would end in the first 10 minutes, still it came it was a gut punch nevertheless. Woo Do-hwan plays the abandoned child/cynical man with grace and emotional honesty. His soulmate, played by Lee Yoo-mi, suffers and delights in turns as he steals her away from her hard-won opportunity to belong to a well-off family whose cheobol son she charmed. But their bad luck follows them like their shadows on a sunny day.

Beautifully written and acted. The misfortunes they have overcome and the misfortunes they have yet to face bring them into contact with deadly thugs, a judge-y mother-in-law-to-be, a hapless minion, and others who con and disappoint but never succeed in ruining their lives.

The head-scratcher of a title is explained in a lovely, touching scene that reveals just how deeply Woo Do-hwan's character feels, yearns and denies.

Funny (really), twisty, touching, graceful and ultimately life-affirming. Have kleenex handy. Very high production value and A-list cast make this extraordinary, too.

At first, I didn't like the editing; it felt chaotic and not fluid. I also didn't like how the director dragged out some scenes. For example, there's no need to make me watch someone cry for over a minute - I understood they were sad and crying after the first 20 seconds.

But despite that, the show manages to make you feel something, and that's the most important thing for me. If a show succeeds in creating a connection between the viewer and the characters, moving the audience's emotions to the point where they feel like they're part of the story, that's a major success.

The acting was realistic and free from the usual Korean drama clichés. The actors weren't afraid to show themselves in unflattering ways, whether crying, falling, or getting hurt. There wasn't any bad acting in this drama; there was a good harmony between the cast.

The show contains a mix of warmth, sadness, depth, joy, and unspoken emotions. It has a bit of everything.

I highly recommend it.

Sincerely, I started to watch this K-drama because I was bored, thinking it would be another average love story and that I'd ditch it halfway as soon as the "bad boy" wout get his cute girl to fall in love with him. I couldn't have been more wrong, I thought, after laughing for five episodes straight-actually, this is not that bad. Even though it was a totally fictional plot, the connection with the characters amazed me with how real they were. My heart started to feel heavy and squeezed by emotions throughout the whole journey. It was a total rollercoaster of character relationships and emotions-their acts, sometimes selfish, sometimes absurd, sometimes pitiful, made them so human. But everything they did was to seek one thing: love.

People are so foolish for searching love where they aren't needed, forgetting to look around and see those who love us no matter what. People who aren't related to us by DNA but who gather with us throughout the journey of life. The main characters did a beautiful job portraying this feeling. Sometimes when I try to explain love to my friends, I imagine this down-to-earth, realistic, but still such a powerful, unimaginable feeling that I cannot explain.

Other than love in its many forms, we felt loss, forgiveness, redemption, letting go, rebirth, and the meaning of self and so much more.

I just want to say thank you and hope others can take a piece of the story with them, just as I did.

Ktrauma in this year. However, this kdrama is very good to watch and very enjoyable.

The story, comedy, love, sadness, trauma, wounds in this Kdrama are written and shown very well, as well as the acting of Woo Do Hwan and Lee You Mi which is so good, detailed, looks real, and until I feel the emotions and feelings. Woo Do Hwan and Lee You Mi acting is very good and feels very real, the comedy is so fitting and not too cheesy, the presentation is entertaining and fun, and the love story is so sweet and tragic is the attraction of this kdrama. So my rating is 9/10. I think the 9/10 rating that I gave to this kdrama is because this kdrama is very good and worth watching!

This Kdrama is recommended for those who want to laugh very hard and then cry very hard. I'm sure, people will continue to discuss this kdrama because of the story and ending that so... curious about the ending? So watch it first and you will know how the ending is! Don't worry! This kdrama will have a happy ending. Very highly recommended to watch! You have to watch it!

I don't know how they do it, but you have to hand it to them, they continue to make the best dramas in Korea with the best writers, actors, directors & cinematographers. Hats off to them.

If I tell you you'll cry buckets, I won't be spoiling anything. The first scene is the ending scene. You know what you're going to get and no amount of willing it not to happen is going to stop it happening.

Be warned, your heart will be broken, you'll curse at the unfairness of life but you'll love that these characters, whether abandoned, mistreated or simply lonely can find family, love and support with each other.

The cast is excellent. Not a single offbeat role. The ML & FL give this drama their all and deserve the plaudits coming their way & a special mention to the location manager and cinematographer. The series was a treat for the eyes.

Loved this despite the heartache.
