A KDrama that stays with you

I've only watched kdramas for the last few months but most of them are entirely forgettable, even when very enjoyable. My Mister is the rare exception. Dark and achingly poignant, well-acted and respectful of the complexity of being human. It was so good I signed up for this site purely to leave a review.

I found many of the characters--particularly Dong Hoon's family--unbearable at the beginning, but as the show went on, it stopped feeling like caricature and began to feel like the way that family feels sometimes; alternately rewarding and infuriating. What I loved the most is that at the end of the show, they were still doing those obnoxious things, yet I found myself fond of them and willing to overlook their idiosyncrasies. That's a magical thing to convey in a TV show.
