"Let's really be happy" Park Dong Hoon

and therein lies the seeming simplicity of this drama, it's brilliantly executed and showcases the beauty and fragility of the human condition. This is a story about kindness, grace, love and finding the humanity in all people. The story is meticulously intentional and self aware, highlighting that for most people life is a constant balancing act between internal and external forces, and that our hearts don't move based on logic.

This is a story about a collection of broken people who are somehow not sad, but happy despite it all, soldiering on with the help of childhood friends, family and colleagues. This happiness doesn't apply to our male lead Park Dong Hoon however because he is someone labouring under the burden of his perpetual internal ennui which has become a part of his persona. So we journey with him to find happiness and contentment and it is his interactions with Lee Ji An which begin to thaw his heart and in return his kindness towards her helps her regain her humanity.

Dong Hoon's unconditional kindness to Ji An has a ripple effect which ends up positively affecting almost every character in the story. His elder brother Sang Hoon learns that being selfless is more rewarding than pandering to shallow ambitions and similarly, Kwang's perception of Ji An comes full circle.

My Mister is definitely not a romance story but it is a story about love, Dong Hoon and Ji An's love defies labels, it's not romantic or familial love, its much more than friendship, it's love in it's purest form where each recognises the other's essential humanity and responds to it. Their selfless consideration of each other is heartwarming and that's what makes this show so special.

The entire cast of this drama is excellent. I believe that this is IU's best performance of her career to date. Lee Sun Kyun's interpretation of Dong Hoon is contemplative, melancholy and ultimately triumphant in the pursuit of happiness and contentment, the smile on his face in the last scene of the drama is unforgettable.

The mood and world that this show creates is uniformly immersive and absorbing. The music, camera work, sounds, silence, and everything that makes up this story is well thought out and never misplaced. This is the first time I have actively looked for the score of a drama, you know those instrumental pieces that usually play in the background, yes those, I went and downloaded the entire score, it is that beautiful. The entire OST is a masterpiece and was used brilliantly.

There are very few dramas that I rewatch, and I usually wouldn't rewatch a drama of this genre, but My Mister defies this rule because as soon as I finished it I immediately wanted to rewatch it. I restrained myself and am now happily looking forward to the time when I can relish this show again.

The most deserved 10 out of 10.
