The Atypical Family Episode 5

Five Stars

In this episode, we finally know the complete truth about Da-hae’s past and teases Gwi-ju’s involvement in the same. Although, the episode leaves the truth about Da-hae’s saviour a mystery, we could assume from the predictability and straightforward nature of the plot that it’s highly possible for him to be Da-hae’s saviour. Through his superpower, he might just be able to save someone from the past.This is especially important for Gwi-ju since he had travelled to the same memory when the car accident took place. For him to achieve a semblance of solace, he is frantically holding on to the threads that would justify his travel and subsequent loss on the fateful day.Although the plot remains interesting, the connection between Gwi-ju and Da-hae keep feeling forced, perhaps due to the fact that it is supposed to be forced in the episode with Da-hae’s cunning advances to trap the Bok family and Gwi-ju’s reluctance for the same.Moreover, now that Da-hae knows about I-na’s superpower, the show seems to become even more exciting. Consequently, I-na’s mind reading is the greatest threat to her plan and it’s only a matter of time to discover how it would take its course in the show.
