Where the lost ones go.
"I am an Seong Mi Do, the Influencer!" What? "Influenza" !!!
It has been a long time since I truly enjoyed the pilot episode. I absolutely loved the first episode of The One and Only.It is indeed not a washed up plot. Also it felt new, raw and broken at the same time. It does not give you introduction of its characters and pushes you right away in the middle of a story, where its characters are already at the end of their lives, even though it just beginning of their story.
I could not find a single filler scene in first episode, may be because it is the first episode, but I highly doubt it is going be any less than its first episode in quality. The tone, the setting and and the pain of its characters is a reflection of what is heading towards the rest of the story.
I am a fan of AEJ, I have liked her since I first saw her. even though she in the industry for over 10 years, but not until 2018 she truly entered television medium. She is a theater actress and on that a musical one, so you can guess her range of emotions and ability to showcase a huge spectrum of roles and characters - she is not only a versatile actress but possesses an ability to channel her emotions through her characters to a great length to give them life. She did not disappoint here as well. A job well done, not less, no more, hits you hard sometime. What I had expected, she delivered and I am very very much satisfied. I have no doubt in Kim Kyung Nam that he wouldn't do justice to his character. After watching the episodes, I was right, he is too on a path to glory of his capability of doing something different. I hope this series brings him a good fortune.
I am so loving the other characters, and can't wait how ravel stories will be unraveled and how people of Ahumiti will come to heal each other before exiting this life. I never thought Pyo In Sook first day would be this eventful, and she would have soulmates so early on. But I guess they don't have time to know each other to gel well, jumping right into it is the only solution and I like that, sometimes introduction and pace is not important.
Her grandmother scenes are heartbreaking, why always it is like that when parents are shitty, it is grandma that has to take responsibility for their child crimes. This show is going to show a lot of blood boiling stories, but at the same will show how the people at the center of those stories living their last.
The trio and the one, is going to come together to heal each other and in the middle of dying a desire of living will take place. I just hope they stick to the story, and what shouldn't happen, must not happen. Otherwise the story will lose its meaning.
I fell in love with this series, I am sure you will too. Give it a chance, it is going to be roller coaster ride of tears and happiness, of course marinated with death.

With love they thrived in the darkest of their times!
First two episodes, had me in tears - the five siblings, carrying the burden of poverty, negligence and loss of their mother, with unhinged and gambling father… the eldest took everything on his thin and lean shoulders."When you hit rock bottom hard, there is no way but to go up!"
He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, hid his pain and put a poker face to make a better fate for him and his four little siblings, who look up to him, every time - when they were hungry, when they needed clothes, when they needed washing, when they needed feeding, and when they needed to be saved by the cruel face of poverty.
He did it all, and he did so without complaining. To whom he could complain? No one.
I was looking forward to this series, and worried it wouldn’t be subbed on time, but thanks to the effort of subbers, VIKi and other people, who made this gem be able to watch. I am so glad I am watching it. Though much of it is yet to come to screen, but I know from the start that it is not going to be an easy journey as a viewer but will be a profound experience of storytelling extremely close to heart, and family oriented.
The Bond that these five siblings shares, or the one who grew apart from them, is unbelievable.
A must watch series for all!

A typical tale of Korean TV
As expected the series offered nothing with its first episode.Same good old innocent FL haunted by her mother memories, failing at job encounters poor SL, who becomes shoulder to cry on, circles around her, helps her only to be sidelined by ML. I am already feeling extremely sorry for Ji Soo, whose character is going to be sad one, as always. And then there is female ex, her face is enough to tell that she is cunning, devious and one tortuous character.
The acting wise is going to be amazing, it was the only rating I could give 10 by 10. Others, I am not sure, as this the drama, whose is story is told million time in different style in Korean television industry.
When on earth they will Ji-Soo a leading role and not a SL or whatever, he deserves more than this!!!
