true. But on the other hand, only Kotas (and Ioris) family was featured to some extent. But yes, I also wished to so her parents. Maybe just 2 scenes with them. 1 when they were young, and 1 when she came back. I would also loved if Kota asked Mei how her parents were doing. I mean, they were so close. ;)

These kind of shows are always out of competition for me. 10/10.

Hey,
I want to watch it again but without the filler minutes. (so, no flashbacks, no side character blabla etc)
Does anyone know, if there is a shortened version out there somewhere? (best with embedded subtitles)

well, it's nonetheless a mental disorder, and we don't have to be overspecific, do we? ;)

Ok, I'm around Ep 5 and have to change my opinion.
While it is OK, I don't think it's particularly good due to the lack of an episode overlapping base storyline. Every episode is similar and exactly 1 case is presented. The cases itself are not catchy nor particularly interesting and it's entirely possible to skip multiple episodes up till now.
Also, there aren't many characters and those who are there are more or less only side characters which happens to have names. They don't have a base storyline, so they are also not very interesting.

thanks! I tried ep1 yesterday and I like it so far. :) Not a relaxing watch due to fast speech (and fast reading abilities are needed, but well XD)

Is it considered good (9.0 rating) because the show covers something unique which goes with the Zeitgeist (autistic mental disorder) or because of well written story line, likeable characters or a good production etc?

I would recommend to watch till the end. It's nice to guess, but it will be revealed in the last scene.

he's neither good nor bad but has his own interests

XD true, but I liked it. :) Gave her a nice unique character design

whaaat? Is that true? She does figure skating? That would be very cool indeed. I love sports dramas and figure skating especially. ^^

true that

my thought as well XD also: pure comercial story. I now know about 2 apps which might be useful for dating and organizing studying, a tteokbokki and pizza delivery service. XD

I would propose you hide spoilers. I didn't even know that, so thanks for ruining this part of the story. ;)

Japan would also be my pick I guess.

Cool article. Thanks also for the references! Can you also do a write up about japanese and korean drams? That would be interesting as well!

who uses the word "offspring" in this context in 2022? XD

It's good, but I don't like it. The topic is too heavy for me, and not shown in the way I would like it. The K-Drama touch is too strong with all the sad things stacking up, but it shouldn't be there or at least presented in a different way due to the complicated / serious topic.

The highlights for me are definitly Jeon Mi Do and Lee Moo Saeng. Especially Lee Moo Saeng presents a strong male character who can show emotions and cry. It's something you don't see often and if so, not with this quality acting. Those two nailed it on the spot.

I thought so as well! I didn't even recognize her but wanted to check out, who is playing this cool character so well.
What a surprise! :D
