What a story! The storyline is so ordinary and give us a big awareness on people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as well as inequality treatment towards people with disability. I personally think the overall storyline is a bit harsh for a "slice of life", but then it's maybe always this harsh for people with special condition like her. This show features different cases on almost every episode, and I like that the outcome is so ordinary and not always favorable for Young U. The strong friendship is a feature in this show, and the loveline is not overecsatic. Does it require the character an ASD to have a calmer love story?
It must be difficult for Park Eun Bin to play such "special" character, but at the end she delivers it fantastically. The other casts add a great combination to the show, especially Kang Ki Young with some silly things he often pulls. Additionally, most of the characters get a good character development.
While this show has a great highlight on the person with ASD story, it somehow takes toll on the story details. They didn't imply what is the actual beef between Han Seon Yeong and Tae Su Mi, that the former has to use Yeong U as her weapon to "attack" the latter. It is also unknown what happens to Min U that causes his change of heart. On the Children Liberation Army's case, there is a big chance to bring up more message, but they decided to skip the verdict. On the Lottery Ticket Case, Yeong U is told that Ms. Sung gets all the lottery prize amount of 1.1 billion as inheritance. This should be incorrect because her husband has spent all the lottery prize on the car which has been written off in the crash so there is nothing to inherit.
I personally think the final episode doesn't give proper closure. Young U gets a proper closure, and although vague but it's a assumable closure for Myeong Seok, Su Yeon and Min U. However it's questionable what is aftermath for Su Mi, what causes her sudden change of heart, and her relationship with Yeong U, Gwang Ho and Seon Yeong.
On the conclusion, this is a good show because it's heartwarming and has a fresh, unique concept idea.
