Korean Rambo?

Yes, there were the underground boxing scenes - that was the only thing similar to the movie Rambo. But the story was far from it and much more meaningful.

The story centred around a 20-year autistic old boy whose father died suddenly and his guardianship was passed to his estranged uncle. The father and son ran a cleaning service for the deceased. As the story unfolds, the reasons behind how the differences between his uncle and father happened are revealed, and so was the true relationship between the autistic boy and the father. The unwilling uncle took on the guardianship with his eyes on the only property the father had left behind but much more developed after.

While this was interesting, what was more heart-rending was each of the stories behind each deceased and how the boy insisted on carrying on his father's tradition of helping the deceased fulfilled their most important wishes. This drama helped those who thought they were the most unfortunate people in the world realised that they were often not - in the same way as had happened to the uncle.

The acting is superb especially the 3 main leads. No beautiful costumes and dresses - just simple casual clothes and boring uniforms. No glamourous princes and princesses but the average lower middle class and lower decile individuals. The music only just meet the mark, suited to the story. And I might not watch this again. But I enjoyed this drama tremendously - it was more meaningful than a lot of other highly rated drama I had watched and therefore I decided to give it a full 10.
