Drama Special Season 8: The Reason We Can’t Sleep (2017)

The reason I can't sleep: writing a review at 2 am, among other things.

I recently stumbled upon this special and having battled insomnia for years I thought, "ah! These are my people. Let's see what they are up to." I then stepped into a nice little story about two neighbors who are both troubled with their own sleep problems and life problems. These two individuals naturally keep crossing paths and offer each other understanding...and perhaps something more.

This sweet but predictable little gem was more than just a short cliche romance. It touched on some hardships that most people have faced but don't talk much about. This is a story about having dreams that have amounted to nothing. It's about being unappreciated no matter how hard you have worked. It's a story about dealing with feelings of failure and being lost in life. Having felt these types of feelings deeply at one time or another, this story really resonated with me. If I could use two words to describe it, I would say it was comforting, and hopeful.

I would recommend this drama to anyone who has ever had their heart broken by a dream lost, and to anyone who wants to find it again. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a special that is a little more special than all the rest. Lastly, I would recommend it to anyone who, like me, can't sleep and has nothing better to do than watch drama specials at 1 am.
