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.

At present, over 47% of the male population in Japan aged between 30 ~ 34 are single. While for women, the no. goes up to 60% for those in their late twenties. It is not that they are unable to get married. Rather, they all choose to remain single, as they believe that marriage is not the be all and end all. Life holds more promising things beyond marriage, and thus they are all celebrating life as a single. This drama takes a look at life from the perspectives of these men and women. Hoshino Mamoru is the President of a film production company, having taken over the position from his father. He is an excellent creative director, but he detests chaos and hence prefers to remain single. His brother, Susumu, works at the same company, taking care of the business side of things. Currently undergoing divorce proceedings, Susumu has had to move out of his marital home. Haruno Yuki is disillusioned with men, after having gone through several failed relationships. She wasn't making great strides in her career either, and so one day, she decided to quit her job and pursue her dream of becoming a scriptwriter. In order to pay the bills, she takes on a part-time job at a maid agency. Before she knows it, she gets her chance to make her dream come true! It could be Fate, or just plain coincidence, but the 3 of them are plunged into each other's lives; The "Affluent Single", the "Divorced Hero" and the "Marriage Refugee". Will a pivotal moment happen upon them? Will the "Affluent Single" decide to give wedded bliss a chance?
