An extremely slow burn--perhaps too slow toward the end--but worth a watch nonetheless

By the folks who brought us Our Beloved Summer, Goblin, and a few other top dramas. The ML's dialog is communicated entirely in sign language, which makes his interaction with the FL at times touching and at other times a bit awkward--so much so that it sometimes felt like their chemistry was lacking. The rest of the cast is quite good, but two in particular stand out: Park Jin Joo is an absolute delight as the FL's goofball sidekick. It's a role she's played several times before, but I can't think of anyone that does it better. And Heo Jun Seok plays the ML's bartender sidekick to perfections. His character is both the perfect bro and perfect husband to his adorable (deaf) wife. This drama is an extremely slow burn--much more so than even Our Beloved Summer. The slow pace feels comfortable in the beginning as the two leads learn to navigate the communication barrier, but the drama dragged in the final quarter before recovering to wrap things up elegantly in the final episode. I watched this as it was released, two episodes per week, on a sketchy, lo-fi streaming service which may have contributed to the feeling the story dragged. It may show better in a binge watch on Viki or Netflix.
