A show that's out of this world (well sort of)

Sometimes you stumble across shows that remain with you for a long time because the characters are memorable and are supported by an actually enjoyable story. My Love From the Star is one of those shows. About a brooding alien with supernatural gifts trapped on earth and a sweet, but rather clueless, actress struggling with the hounding pressure of fame, these two come together to deliver a lovely show. The scenes alternate between beautiful to funny to sad and all of them at once.

The chemistry of Kim Soo-Hyun and Jun Ji-Hyun emphatically underpins the show's success. They are incredible together and separately, injecting their characters with a beautiful array of emotions. Jun Ji-Hyun's acting is perhaps more memorable simply because her character is far more vivid and vibrant than Kim Soo-Hyun's rather guarded character. The support cast around them also delivers and that is perhaps what stands it out from a lot of other Kdrama shows. Support characters cannot exist as "support characters" to the lives of the lead ones. This is not how real life works where everyone has their own inner turmoil and is the centrepiece of their own story.

The story of course is undercut with a sense of tragedy. And an alien and a human together just isn't meant to be, at least one of the characters knows this at all times. Nonetheless, the show drives at your heart with some beautiful storytelling that also perhaps conveys a message about South Korea's rather relentless culture around its pop idols. One moment they are stars, the next they are falling from the sky into the abyss, replaced by the next brightest dot in the sky.

I'm a little mixed on the ending but it's still a terrific show.
