“everytime you see an aurora, you’ll think of me”
this show was spectacular. i’d been anticipating it’s release and was so excited to watch and it really didn’t disappoint.it’s definitely not your typical romcom or melodrama, instead it stands out with it’s focus on the insecurities, anxieties and personality disorder of the main character. i’ve never seen a drama that delves into the idea of DID, which is taboo enough in and of itself.
the drama starts light and airy, a typical romcom with an interesting plot—an actress who falls for the interpreter as she films a dating show. meanwhile, his old chrush becomes the producer for said show. it’s a classic trope which i personally adore. but there’s a massive tonal shift in episode 7 when muhee’s DID starts presenting. at first i was quite thrown off and didn’t know exactly how to feel about it, but as i continued watching, it intrigued me more and more.
both leads are incredible actors, but younjung in particular is absolutely astounding. the way that she is able to portray herself as two distinctly unique characters, muhee and rami, in meaningful ways to showcase both the insecurities and strength of them both is incredible.
i also love the aspect of an interpreter who speaks 6 languages still not understanding the language of muhee herself. the way both characters speak so distinctly that they confuse each other and need to literally interpret their love is just amazing.
i would highly recommend this drama, especially for those looking for their next binge. normally a romance show isn’t something people look to binge but this show is just too good not to. it was simply amazing and such a notable drama to start 2026 off with.
