What was amazing to me about the ending is we were teased for the rescue for the entire series so it could have easily been anticlimactic but instead I was sobbing through the whole thing. The show was brilliant at raising the emotional stakes with each episode so when we finally got to see Gwiju save Dahae it was cathartic.

Yes

I will say that JKY's best acting comes in the last two episodes and he really is phenomenal, I feel like he leveled up from every other role I've seen him in. So maybe you skip ahead to the end and just read the spoilers to catch up if you really want to see him do his thing

This bit from fakefangirl is directly relevant to AF:

However, not everyone views the notion of set-in-stone fate with despair. “I think that form of storytelling is really interesting too,” says Lost co-creator and writer Damon Lindelof. “There are certain inevitabilities that are fixed, either by some higher power or just by the biosystems of life. They are unalterable, and even in a world where time travel exists, you can’t change them. The fun of telling those stories is watching people try anyway.”

For Lindelof, having characters grapple with their place in the universe ultimately leads to a cathartic journey. “There’s a tragedy in that the initial mission was a failure, but along the way the character learns something that gives them a victory on a more intimate or personal level,” he says. “You start from a place of: I need more control, I need to control the people around me, I need to control my own destiny.

“But as life goes on you begin to learn that there are some things that you have no control over. You have to let go, and there is a certain freedom and evolution in accepting your own place in the world and the power that you have over it. So, even the failure can be transformed into a victory.”

I think you're right to drop it. If the characters are still intolerable almost halfway through the drama it's not for you.

I'm watching:

- Amidst a Snowstorm of Love (China)
- Analog Squad (Thailand)
- Date - Koi to wa Donna Mono Kashira (Japan)
- My Love Mix-Up! (Thailand)
- Wandee Good day (Thailand).

I'm about to start The Double (China) because so many people are talking about it. No Kdramas on the list! There's nothing else out right now that I'm interested in seeing.

The kid doesn't time travel. He never left the room. He summons the lost things. He's not covered in soot or ash like his father when they are standing next to each other. Kid was never in danger.

Not at all! I'm so happy that it's helping people understand

I don't but maybe you can find it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9-BSkilDD8

**harp chord**

Because a lot of people can't tolerate morally gray characters and especially morally gray female leads. The number of people I saw calling the female lead a whore, slut and bitch in the early episodes was depressing

Because he would have jumped back into the middle of the fire at Ina's school and they both would have died

That's 100% the central theme of the drama.

He's in a small but very important role in My Mister. He's also the lead in My Roommate is a Gumiho which is fun but I don't think romcom is really his genre

Ha that's me! I'm glad it's helpful

As much as I loved this, the one thing I'd change is I'd have Ina's mother leave Gwiju rather than die. It's sad that she experienced so much misery for five years before driving off the road, like she was a casualty of all these superpowered people wrestling with destiny. It does however kind of highlight that only someone as tough as Dahae and her family could survive getting tangled up with the Boks.

I just found all of the The Atypical Family background music on YouTube 🙌🎉 Kudos to composer Jung Jae Hyung because the music is one of the things that made this drama brilliant

I was happy with the ending but ijbol 🤣🤣🤣

I want to give a standing ovation to this comment

It was Gwiju. He did it in the name of the entire firehouse so he didn't want to claim sole credit.
