I know the Trailer is not so convincing but definitely is a must watch!

Would definitely have to say my favourite drama of all time. I do not think there are many many dramas like this especially addressing mental health. I'm the type of person to only watch Romantic Comedies because isn't life already sad enough? haha. For some reason I had a good feeling that this drama is going to be a very nice drama. Just like most people I also judge a drama by its trailer however when I watched the trailer I thought it was going to be just a very sad drama that's the main reason why I put back on watching it. However scrolling through Instagram I saw a few clippings of the show and I realise that the atmosphere of this drama throughout the whole show is not sad and there are different emotions actually involved, like humour and I think that is why this show is so amazing as to how they address different problems that the characters face and the weakness of the characters but at the same time there is humour in world which doesn't make you feel so sad. I think when making a movie or a show having a good set of characters with a strong background is very hard to do however this show nailed it with having three main roles with very different personalities tackling their own issues and just growing not physically but mentally as they progress. I think this show has given great importance to every small detail like cinematography, choice of OST, the clothes used to set the character etc which really adds great value. From not only prioritising perfecting and casting the main characters but the side characters too. Adding minute details like Sharing the illustrations written by Ko Moon-young which can often be connected to one of the three main roles and sometimes to life itself, helps understand the character further in depth.

Coming to the characters further. Ko Moon-young a children's book author who is seen to be a very cool hearted person when at the beginning when you see flashbacks of her childhood it would be common to find it hard to understand her character because she didn't have emotions of an ordinary child and so at first I did find it strange but but then I realise that's just how she was brought up by her mother. She was taught not to feel emotions and when later on she meets Moon Gang-tae she slowly understands different emotions and feels the warmth and love that she had never received when she was a child.

Moon Gang-tae the younger brother who is an employee at a psychiatric hospital. Now Moon Gang-tae is a person who has suppressed all his emotions because I am very young age she has been taking care of his brother and he feels like he needs to be the adult to be able to take good care of him. In this process he's never been Will to live a carefree childhood as his mom made him responsible for his brother and to take good care of him and along the way he was a child he did feel that his mom never love them enough and only loved his elder brother were the case was that she just gave him the extra love for his condition. This really hampers Moon Gang-tae's character as all his life he's only been protecting and taking care care of his elder brother and no one was really protecting and taking care of him because he lost his parents at a very early age. Moon Gang-tae's character progresses as later on he opens up more abhor emotions and allows Ko Moon-young to take care of him.

Saving the best character for the last, Moon Sang-tae (Moon Gang-tae's autistic elder brother). At the beginning of the show Moon Sang-tae is a very dependent character who finds it hard to read others emotions and understand non family relationships due to his condition. However, as the show progresses, this character grows and learns to accept Ko Moon-young as family and determined to protect his family and follow his dream of becoming an illustrator. Seeing this massive change in character and how he later takes care not only on Moon Gang-tae but of Ko Moon-young too is enough to make a grown man cry. I also have to mention Lee Kyu-sung who plays as Moon Gang-tae in the show did a fabulous job.
