Life is a race we need to finish, but it's okay to take a break.
Highly recommended!
This drama is so refreshing and unique in its own way. Be it the pace of the drama, the storyline, the actors or even the topics that the drama revolves around. (Also can we talk about the aesthetics please!?)
The male lead is intriguing, complex and an unreliable character as in, he himself doesn't know what he is like until he unfolds his story with us. He looks naive and weird but in fact, he is just indifferent to things that normally extract a reaction out of us which adds to the humour in the whole drama. He knows a thing or two about how the world is, never hesitates to do what he wants to do, respects the people around him and holds a special place for his juniors.
The female lead (played by Shin Se Kyung and honestly might be her best role so far!) has a rather unique job and resonates with most of us (international fans) and creates a feeling of empathy and we can relate to the problems and issues one goes through while subtitling or translating things. She is soft but mentally fierce and strong, determined and hesitant at the same time but never does her inner conflict seem annoying but rather motivating.
They are cute together on screen, Ebe it before and after they get together and honestly, have one of the healthiest relationships I have ever seen in dramas. It warms your heart, makes you smile and by the end you are looking at them with heart eyes.
The second male lead (Kang Tae Oh my god, he's a rising star!) is a clingy teen-like art student but guess what? He has layers in him which makes him so much more interesting. He makes you curious, just like the second female lead was, and pulls you in his charms. He is an amazing addition to the whole drama, giving the right push to lessons and messages conveyed.
The second female lead (and Sooyoung has won my heart!) is a girl boss, with a little stereotyped fashion and personality but even then the writers have layered her character with curiosity, naiveness, sweet and gentle undertones and straight-forwardness. She is the right spice to everything, creates the mood for you to indulge in the whole drama.
The side characters— all have great elements and stories that make the whole drama worth watching. Be it SFL's sibling relationship which totally makes your heart pain and jump with joy at the same time, or the filming crew and impromptu curse battle they have on sets. The dialogues and script are in fact very funny and the actors never overdo it to add to the humour. The story unfolds slowly without major climaxing moments which really heals you throughout. The cinematography is insane. It is aesthetic, very calming and makes you lean back on your chair to just enjoy the visuals. The OSTs are good too, perfectly suiting for the drama.
By the look of it, every character is weird, imperfect, and a little crazy which makes the subtle messages of self-love, self-worth and "life is a race we all need to finish" reach us with more impact and leaves you smiling.
