My Mister (2018)
Bittersweet and Remember - Every Relationship Is Precious

Warning: Spoilers
I love the opening song of this drama - it sounds like tinkling cheerfulness. The animation is so pretty with the characters walking and Korean characters. There are at least two songs I like in this drama - one with female voice and one with male voice.

Dong-hoon is the ideal man - he is trustworthy, reliable, honest. He has this maturity and a very deep voice. I like the maturity in older men and can understand why Ji-an fell for him. He wears a suit and tie with a shoulder bag.

His wife cheats on him with his boss. One of the worst cheating scenarios out there. They show lots of passionate kissing between them and intimacy. It made me sad that him and his wife did not even kiss at all in the drama. There is no intimate scenes between them, only viewers can imagine.

Ji-an is a compassionate person who does the right thing while working with bad people. She is so cute looking and pretty. IU was 25 years old and she plays a woman born in 1998 (20 years old). The casual outfits she wears are cute and suit her. I love the Converse, skinny jeans and button-down looks she tends to wear.

The personal issues in Dong-hoon's and Ji-an's lives seem difficult to resolve. They come from different walks of life, have different incomes and each have their own problems that correspond with their stage in life. Dong-hoon is in his forties while Ji-an is in her twenties.

One person could change your life. This drama reinforces the message to be kind. Every relationship is fascinating and precious. Be happy to pay back.

I was really sad as I was secretly rooting for our main characters to become a couple although I knew in the back of my mind that it was unlikely. They look so good together and personalities suit each other. I love their restaurant and bar scenes where they are comfortable in each other's presence. It is a break from all the troubles in their lives.

I love the neighbourhood gang and their compassion. We see the older adults taking Ji-an under their wing and giving eye smiles radiating with compassion for her.

Ji-an's state in poverty has reminded me to be frugal and work hard. Save for a rainy day. Spend time doing the things that really matter. See grandma as much as possible. The connections in your life are more valuable than anything else.
