A masterpiece that’s extraordinarily ordinary.

With so many drama’s airing right now, this gem of a drama really stood out. This is simply a masterpiece , where the plot is extraordinarily ordinary yet so relatable, to what anyone could feel daily or at any point in life, the characters portrayed their roles immaculately that it feels like they are just being themselves. MLN is about an ordinary family, everyday problems, work life, ordinary love, friendships and the bond of siblings.

The writing has been superb and despite a rather slow start, has settled into a really good rhythm and managed to touch on a lot of important topics. It’s slow pace but a healing drama. if there’s one thing this show has done fantastically well, it’s the symbolism and themes. The drama has done so well to keep this going throughout the episodes and it seems fitting to end on one here too, given the coin and the drain. I’ll miss this drama in terms of how unique and special it was, how memorable the dialogue was and the emotions and comfort that we felt watching this drama.

This drama was never about a happy ending, It's an open-ending but them being able to smile and start anew, having liberated from some of the things they wanted to escape and go on in their lives in pursuit of further liberation. Nothing is guaranteed, all we have is hope and that was potrayed beautifully by the ending.

A beautiful story, superb acting, the OST and BGM were really soothing, and the cinematography was simply marvelous. From the write of one of my favorite drama’s “My mister”, this drama too has definitely been added to my favorite list of dramas.
