bow for best drama of 2022
I never watch an airing drama cause I don’t have the patience, but for the first time, I went out of my way to watch EAW because of the unending spoilers everywhere.
The series is an amazing take on autism and the extinction of whales. Autism is a condition, not a disease, and I loved to few people who always considered her extraordinary. They cared for her and did friendly stuff than treat her as an outcast. The whale concept held very deep meaning and raised awareness about its extinction.
The series had an episodic case so it didn’t feel stretched. They made short, simple, meaningful, and convincing cases for the drama. The cases also focused on the main character's insecurities, vulnerability, and growth. After each episode, I felt happy like a kid and sad when it led to heartbreaks. Watching an episode is good instead of a whole drama because it doesn't have cliffhanger ends.
All actors did a daebak job in portraying their characters perfectly The characters made me hate them like Kwon Min Woo, Tae SuMi. While characters who made us fall in love, are Choi Su Yeon, Dong Geu Rami, Jung Myung Seok, Lee Jun Ho and Woo Young Woo. Park Eun bin did a magnificent job portraying an autistic person. She gestures, hand moments, eyes. Dialogue delivery everything was pitch perfect.
Because the show was based on courtroom cases more, there was significant character growth in Woo Young Woo and Jung Myung Seok, other characters had presence but were like supporting characters. And it is totally fine because the show is based on Attorney Woo she is the main character but I still wished to have more character arc of her colleague.
The romance held an important part in the drama, it showed WYW growth as an adult. The relationship with an autistic person is sure hard and the writers gave a good script. The chemistry of Park Eun Bin and Kang Tae Oh as wyw and LJH was superb. Just like the drama because such characters only exist in dramas, not in real life
BGM and OST were soothing. “Beyond my dreams” was used so much that it eventually grew on me. “The blue night of Jeju” by Park Eun Bin and “inevitable” by Suzy are other tracks that are heartwarming. The whale enlightenment music had a lovely charm.
I am rewatching this. It is heartwarming and comforting.
