What An Incredible Surprise!!!
What a magically surprise this drama was for me....
I was in between dramas and searching for something to fill my time and this popped up. For me "superpowers" is usually a red flag, so not into that BUT Atypical Family deals with it so beautifully and it is such an integral part of the story I LOVED it! The acting was wonderful, especially Jang Ki-yong, who I'd never seen before...but you can bet I'll go looking for more of his dramas immediately. Chun Woo-hee played her part so well and is one of the most arrestingly beautiful faces I've seen on a drama...she was captivating! The supporting cast was also great especially Park So Yi as the daughter I Na.... incredibly expressive face and eyes! Also loved the black, white and color effects used in Atypical Family!
If I have any complaints (and it's a tiny one) I'd have wished for one more episode to round out the story...it developed so well and slowly that his return, in the final few minutes of the last episode was fast and a bit abrupt...I mean was he a ghost? Was he there for good or could he just return when "called up" by his son? ?
And one last note, and probably one of the MOST outstanding parts of this drama was the ABSOLUTELY incredible OST!!!! My god, it totally made this drama that great work it is! I've already purchased (and listen to incessantly) two of my favorite pieces..."I See You" and the theme song "Atypical Family"...so hauntingly beautiful!! This drama is totally worth a watch...or two and do buy that soundtrack!
