It's really hard for me to describe it..... watch it then u'll understand me.

I have watched all the episodes 4 times already. Nothing more to recommend. Watch it and feel it. Everything is excellent from Directing, Writing, Acting and all OSTs.

Started watching this drama with no expectation, thinking it is just another slice of life drama. I have to say at the beginning like at least 5 episodes it did somehow feel as such, a drama that totally people in general able to relate to and even a bit slow, boring with the many conversations in between characters and with the focus on office politics. However if you stay on and immerse yourself into any of these characters as they move along with the story plot, I guarantee you will feel rewarded on the experience of what relationships between humans really are and how we are all just surviving and thriving (or failing) in the act of being in relationships with one another. This drama stays true to its theme on exploring and unfolding human relationships - love (also self love and care), belongingness, betrayal, forgiveness, acceptance, letting go, and I can go on and on because I'm amazed by the writer nim's ability to pack so many things in 16 episodes and yet it all fits accordingly and not overwhelming the story plot at all!The existence of the male MC, Park Dong Hoon in this story and the way it is being written really carried all the other characters so well throughout the plot - he is really just an ordinary genuine ahjussi, at some point in your life, you wish you get to meet in real life or perhaps you have even met such a person before. He has his own shares of life frustration but always chose to do things that would determine the outcome of what already happened (staying in control) and not wallow in what already happened (e.g., blame or accept his 'destiny'). His attitude of if you see it as nothing then it will become nothing and life goes on, is really a good learning point in life. Try putting yourself in the shoes of the female MC, Lee Ji An, and experience the tough life she had to go through (someone who accepted her 'destiny') and understanding her reactions and actions as well as what made her blurred the line between gratitude and romance because in the end how do we, as human beings express of our love to someone whom we see as angel sent to us and telling us life is what we made of, instead of destiny. This drama not only developed strongly anchoring on these two characters but also the entire characters in the neighborhood detailed in the drama. I see it as every single characters revealed in this drama are as equally important to showcase how we all influence one another when we gather together in our lives. From relationships among family members (siblings, mother-sons, grandparent-grandchild) to brotherhoods who stay in same neighborhood (the extended society family) to the 'family' at work and to the point that even a monk character speak volume in this drama - all depicting the sense of belongingness in human beings that is so reflective of reality world. Their interactions in this drama are gems, teaching you the many perspectives of life.I am just so grateful and satisfied with this drama that lived up to its title and for the writer nim who preserve the beauty of the relationship between the two MCs without tainting it with the usual reciprocating romance theme. The most memorable thing from this drama for me, apart from the awesome casts' performances, is to slowly decipher and digest the meaningful conversations between the MCs especially with the constant illustration using metaphors. Oh and the music and bgm throughout the drama are like, prefect to the core. The whole wire tapping and listening to the audio along with Lee Ji An - every single sound was crisp clear and really made it feel as if the audience is transported into it. Also up until now there are still various vivid scenes from the drama that keep appearing to me visually, such as the walk home at the neighborhood between the MCs and the subway train ride. This is definitely one drama that will leave a big impact to you if you take a chance to watch it. It hurts a lot at certain point to come to terms with reality of life but it hurts so good because that's how you grow to be a better person.

On Friday, April 27, 2018, I have finished watching EP12 of My Mister. This TV serial is indeed worth watching.On the whole, this TV series is highly fascinating and very attractive. The picture of this TV drama gives an excellent sense and quality feel. The OST is another main attraction. The actors' emotional performances are also in place. The makeup and costumes of the various characters are an important part of the plot development of this TV series. For example, the close-ups of her bare ankles and thin, dirty shoes appearing in various parts of the play, plus the fact which Lee Ji-an has been wearing shabby clothes, indicate that she is very poor and short of money. The dark eye sockets and swollen eyes also illustrate that the life of Lee Ji-an is miserable and depressed. In terms of actor's lines, this TV series is still very excellent. For instance, facing a rogue property owner in EP4, Park Dong-hoon took advantage of his professional knowledge of the building structural engineer to speak out excellent lines, including the story of "prison break". Finally, he performed practical actions to make this rascal property owner to apologize to his mother and brother. In EP 8, Park Dong-hoon is a building structural engineer with solid basic construction knowledge and strong structural technical skills. When he was on his way home with her, Park Dong-hoon told Lee Ji-an not only about the contents of the work of the building structural engineer, but also described the relationship between internal forces and external forces in the construction structure. Thus, he derived the philosophy of life from the content of the knowledge of architectural structure. The lines are as follows:Lee Ji-an: When everyone knows that you are an architect in future, you must be asked to provide help everywhere.Park Dong-hoon: Not an architect, but a building Structural Engineer. After working here for so long, you don't even know what the company is running.Lee Ji-an: Aren't they all the same?Park Dong-hoon: Not the same. The architect is responsible for the design. But building structural engineer have to think: if you want to construct the new building according to the design drawing blueprint, what kind of material you should use and how to do to make it safe. It is the person who performs calculation over and over again. As literally speaking, it is the person who creates the structure. All buildings are the struggle between external forces and internal forces. The wind, the load, the vibration. Calculate all the possible external forces. Then design the internal force stronger than the external force. The apartment should be designed to bear 300kg per square meter. A crowded schools or lecture halls requires to be designed a much higher load. Only one level of dining room needs to be designed different loads for different places where people sit and where the weight apparatus are laid up. It has always been necessary to design internal forces more strongly than external forces. Life is also the same. Maybe it is the war between internal forces and external forces. No matter what happens, as long as you have internal force, you can hold on. The characters of this TV series can represent various kinds people in today's society.Park Dong-hoon represents a class of people: It is a part of the middle-aged middle class that is under a lot of great pressure, but still struggling to live. In the plot of this TV series, he is a kind and considerate person who always wants to take care of his family and loved ones (not just his wife alone). He didn't want to tell his wife and other family members about unfavorable things what he encountered at work. Without no income problems, he still suffered from other sources from mental stress, causing him to live like a walking dead in daily life. The reasons for the above problems are:a. Park Dong-hoon had to provide for his elder brother and younger brother in need because they had a very poor life at that time.b. His marriage was under strain at the moment.c. His mother eagerly hoped that he would prove to be an elite in the family.d. In the power struggle within the company, Park Dong-hoon was marginalized by Do Joon-young who is a high - ranking officer, his college juniors and his wife's secret lover. The above points indicate that many problems can not be solved by money. These are the frustration of a part of the middle class. Looking at this type of crowd on the surface, the conclusion is not bad for all aspects, such as good work, good family and adequate leisure time. Even if they work diligently and conscientiously every working day, the troubles or misery of life given to this type of people are endless, so they cannot live a relaxed life. Lee Ji-an represents a class of people: the bottom class of the society. In this TV series,Lee Ji-an is a very hard-to-reach young man with a callous face all day long, which is due to her heavy burden of life. Many time during working hours, she deliberately made the sound of the photocopier so loud that she irritated her office colleagues because of certain problem with the photocopier. Her colleagues asked her to take an A 4 paper, but she opened the drawer with her feet and asked her colleague to bend over to pick it up by himself. Close to the end of the working day,she stole the free coffee powder from the tea-room in the office unobtrusively with the purpose of serving as a part of dinner. At night she also continued to work part-time in the restaurant. While washing the dishes, she stole the leftovers and then took them home to eat. Even worse at the age of 15, she killed a loan shark who abused and assaulted her and her grandmother due to usurious loan. Today, Lee Gwang-il, who had inherited his father's debt collection as the loan shark, not only asked Lee Ji-an to pay back the money like an evil landlord, but also often beat her like a demon and even vowed to torture her forever. To fight against the harsh circumstances, she had the maturation that was not commensurate with her age and owned her inborn instinct wisdom. At the starry night when the moon is clear, Lee Ji-an smuggled her paralyzed and deaf grandmother out with the bed because she could not afford the cost of the sanatorium. In order to survive and because of the distrust of this society, she can basically ignore the corresponding rules when at works, but her heart is yearning for kindness. With the development of the drama caused by the merchandise coupon which was worth 50 million Korean Won, the contact between Lee Ji-an and Park Dong-hoon had increased gradually. Lee Ji-an understood Park Dong-hoon's kindness, tolerance and love for his family. Park Dong-hoon also knew Lee Ji-an's goodness and strength. For example, Park Dong-hoon said to Lee Ji-an, "you are really kind." Besides, Lee Ji-an told Park Dong-hoon "because he scolds you" and "because you hate him." They were guarding each other in their own way with mutual sympathy but without any trace of comfort. It seems that two people who are about to freeze could gather together to warm themselves up. In EP9, when Park Dong-hoon fought with Lee Gwang-il who was the loan shark due to Lee Ji-an's debt problem, Lee Ji-an eavesdropped on this scene through his mobile phone, and then squatted on the side of the road and cried. The plot of " My Mister" finally ushered in the first climax. For people like Lee Ji-an in the lower classes, survival has been the greatest victory and the rest things are luxuries.Wait for me to update
