Pretending to be strong, and failing brilliantly
I laughed so hard in the first half, and cried mostly for the second. Three times. Four.
There are few dramas in which multiple to all of the characters are likeable. This is that one. This is for you, if you’re weird and like weird people.
And It is genuinely funny too, at least to me, makes me laugh for real. The comedic moments don’t feel forced, like they aren’t trying to make you laugh, but the things the characters do and say feel true to them as people. Love the overall vibe and the plot, soundtrack, the character dynamics.
I mean.. how are they able to make so many main
characters, even the supporting characters so real? Without too much information about someone I don’t really care about. Like; just enough. So that I actually kind of begin to care instead.
Maybe it is seeing them at home—even if just for a moment, when they’re alone, when they are with those they feel safe around, and those they don’t. The contrasts and different dynamics in which they are written true to their characters.
So simple, yet so impactful. While it is funny and quirky, there are moments that can feel excruciatingly real and relatable, like a punch to the gut when you least expect it.
It is far from the “best” drama I have watched, but it kind of sneaks up on you.
Favourite quotes:
Do you know why the city is lonely? Because the lights of the buildings take the place of the stars. And because the people of that galaxy don’t know I exist.
So what? Just hang on there. Whatever you do, just hang on and survive. Look at me, look at how amazing and wonderful I am at surviving all these years.
Well, I guess we don’t have much to say, but how about being curious about me from time to time?
You can still fix all the problems you are experiencing as you love someone. However, you cannot fix the other person, you must fix yourself. That is the only way it is possible. If it’s too late, you are only left with regret and the opportunity never returns. Learning this lesson as soon as possible is key.
