Four unconventional wholes, being clumsily vulnerable with each other

Two sisters, identical from head to toe, leading completely opposite lives.

My only critique of this drama is that I wish it was longer, giving more time to explore certain things in just a little more depth.

I find it interesting how two people of the same age, who look and sound the same, grew up under the same roof, surrounded by the same people, how they can turn out so different from each other, and walk such different paths in life. It’s fascinating to think about.

A big thing with this drama is that there are no real villains, rotten to the core. I didn’t hate or even really dislike any of the characters. Everyone made mistakes, someone could do or say something I disliked, but they were all human. No one means to be cruel, and when they realise that, they try to do better. Isn’t that what we all strive for, to be better It’s just that often we don’t know how, and we lack the courage to ask for help, or are unable to find the words.


Favourite quotes:

The first twin would be Mi-Ji, meaning unknown. The second would be Mi-rae, meaning future. But the first one needed a future more than her sister. So the older sister was named Mi-rae. As for me, I just got the name that was left.

Was this thrown away because it deflated? Or did it deflate because it was thrown away? Am I living like this because of the way I am? Or am I like this because of the way I live?

Nothing happened but so much has happened all
these years to even process it. To have only lived
in my mind and nowhere else but only the idea of the world.

I am not who I used to be and I am not who I want to become I am just stuck.

What makes a person human
Is love, pressed down just a little
Pressed a little
From above, below, and the sides
Like freshly packed rice in a bowl
Like an eraser worn down
From choosing kind words
So that the warmth shared
Between two embraced bodies
Won’t escape
Won’t disappear
And will become human
