Anja Mar 04 2026 11:52 am This is the best K-drama I’ve ever seen. It has everything and it’s beautifully made. ❤️?

Ridi Feb 24 2026 7:18 am They had 2 business days to jump on that mattress.

also when he was holding the wall and she just SAT there instead of GTFO. nah, they had time to argue :)

I love Kdramas, but their nemesis seems like not being able to pull off emergencies piss me off :)

Mila Dec 10 2025 3:29 am Overall it was a good drama. I enjoyed it and liked all the characters.

SPOILER Alert! I getting pissed towards the end though because I couldn’t figure out why was he insisting on going back to save her when they’re already living happily in the future. They then pulled a titanic on us like that he could’ve jumped with her from that window. I guess their baby saved the day and I liked what @Debby said it was a perfect explanation! They couldn’t find his body because he was brought to the future by the son. Good ending but I couldn’t enjoy it because it was sudden and short I needed more proof to believe that he’s okay :(

eli Apr 01 2025 5:25 pm this was bad in a good way lol

Nik Dec 31 2024 6:29 pm What a wonderful drama and idea with a great cast! For some super power reason I had the feeling I know the story but I watched it for the 1st time :o

I had some questions while watching, because there would have been many ways to solve their "problem", which made the last episode a little straining, I just say "too much text in dangerious situations", nobody would talk that much. But they came up with a great solution at the end :) I also wished there would have been 60 sec more at the end instead of that just mentioned texting.

But again, I'm just whining at a high level here ^^

maria Dec 29 2024 6:32 pm I thoroughly enjoyed the show! The connection between the leads was so authentic, making their interactions feel incredibly real. The last few episodes were so intense, I couldn’t tear myself away from the screen. I really appreciated the slow-burn storytelling, which allowed the characters to develop in a meaningful way. That said, I was left feeling a bit unsatisfied with the ending—I really wished for a more complete resolution, especially with the family coming back together. Huge praise to the actors for their incredible performances!

Kdrama Love Oct 26 2024 11:05 am Most useless and dumb family i ever watch.. all of them are clueless... Lol

Deem Sep 24 2024 2:59 pm the guy has the most useless power of all time, and that says something lol, im at episode 2 and i already lost interest

Zeus Sep 16 2024 7:23 pm What a great drama!! Unique and different from the other shows but really amazing. At times a little confusing with all the going back and forward in time but nevertheless a great and special drama. The story is so very good, the acting just excellent and professional. Kudos to all the cast!!! Highly recommended to watch!

RinaFuyu Aug 22 2024 8:47 pm it’s been a while since I watch a Good Kdrama! it’s my fav drama of 2024, the storyline is so unique not too focus on the romance but more to the family. There are a lot of life lesson learned, Bok Dong Hee is my fav character, I like her more than the main lead and always looking forward to her story with Grace haha they really need to add Grace and the uncle’s backstory like how do they meet the mother and what they did before scamming. The ending is also a bit rushed, like I want to know how their son bringing back the missing person XD but overall I love this drama and highly recommend it

Su San Aug 22 2024 8:21 pm Unique! Loved this unusual drama. Do watch this entertaining and star-studded show without getting hung up on the timeline or logic. It was so fun and heart-warming that I would have loved to see more of the character arcs updated before saying goodbye.

Agota Aug 20 2024 11:13 am Loved the show! The chemistry between the protagonists was real and believable. I couldn't stop watching the last few episodes it got so excited. I appreciate that the creators wrote a slow-burn story. The only thing I would criticise is the ending. I didn't feel entirely satisfied, would've loved to see the family reunited. Cudos to the actors, beautiful job!

Debby Aug 03 2024 7:17 pm Jo-Ji Han no, Nu-Ri brought to the future his dad from the past at the moment he disappeared. He can find something “lost”, not dead.

Gwi-Ju never died in the present, he got “lost” in the past so he brought him from the past from the moment before the explosion! We never saw him dying and for what we know, the’d never found his body… so his son made him “jump” to the future, their present, from the moment he “got lost”, not died.

There never was a body ‘cause he jumped into the future and never died in the explosion, thanks to his son.

So, no! He can’t bring back dead people… only lost things…

MBG Jul 20 2024 7:58 pm Loved this, but I needed another 1/2 hour of them living happily ever after. At least one more embrace. But loved them, and the whole thing was so refreshing. A little off beat from most K dramas. Great music too.

Irish Jul 20 2024 6:23 am What a mind blowing drama! Kudos to the writer for thinking such a plot like this! The only thing I didn’t like is the ending like can they at least give us a happy ending where all the family reunite again?

Btw, Bok dong hee and grace are my favorite! Also the do hae’s uncle. I knew they’re not not bad from the beginning

urdad Jul 18 2024 3:50 am really enjoying the show but i think it’s such a stretch for i-na to be 13?! she is very clearly younger and the fact they chose actors that were actually 13/14 to stand next to her just emphasized this fact.. i would be so confused being 14 and having to pretend u look the same age as an 11yo.

Jhennifer Jul 16 2024 5:33 am What an amazing drama! The story is really unique and if u hate fantasy dramas then u would not like this. But for me i really enjoyed and understood everything about this drama which is why i think it is the best. It’s like “the da vinci” code of dramas. So many twists and unpredictable parts. The female lead was so great in her role and it made me love her as an actress. She’s really cute too. :) the ending was great as well. :) 10000000/100

superjitu Jul 11 2024 2:48 pm not a bad plot, it's pretty unique considering all drama now is normal rom-com, this one too is rom-com but with a little twist. But the deliverance of the story is not really good, the actor is okay, the story is okay.

Lissa Jul 10 2024 5:42 am Hey Jo Ji-han, just as Tin mentioned Nu-ri was only able to bring back his father because his father didn't even died to begin with, if you watch the last episode well, before the wall fell on him, he disappeared to his past when i-na was born, so i guess he disappeared again before the fire could even explode to another happy moments of him and i think that's why Nu-ri could find him.

Tin Jul 09 2024 6:36 pm Hey Jo Ji-han, I don't think Nu-ri can bring back every deceased person. I believe the reason he was able to bring his father, Gwi-ju, back is because there was no dead body found to begin with. Remember during one of Grandma's dreams, she said they would hold a memorial service without Gwi-ju's body since it was not found. That's why Nu-ri could bring back his dad.

Callie Jul 09 2024 6:33 am It’s a good movie but what is the age rating & what age is woojin but I think it’s great really.

Jojo Jul 08 2024 8:26 am A weak drama series, terrible story. The only person I enjoyed watching was the Uncle (plated by Roy), who spoke the least, but had more of a presence than the rest of the. A fine looking man, loved him.

Special mention for Bok Dong-Hee (played by Soo Hyun) and Grace (played by Ryu Abel), these two were hilarious to watch. If it weren't for them, I would have switched this off ages ago.

Jo-Ji Han Jun 28 2024 11:11 am So Bok Nu Ri can brought back his dad's ex wife a.k.a his step mother? Brought back his mom's dad? Brought back his mom's step mom's daughter? Brought back the whole Bok's ancestor? Man this kid has overpowered superpower he can brought back anything including any money this family gonna spent lol!

Ewwwww Jun 28 2024 7:52 am Still in episode 5 and the FL is being so irritating.....like a desperate character is making to drop this series

jacky Jun 26 2024 1:21 am To each it's own, I even got to listen to the recommendation, I thought this drama was so good as others say but unfortunately I was not able wowed by this drama, if only I had known I would not have to watched it, I thought I would be hooked on it but in my heart I didn't enjoy it. Lesson learned next time I will watch the drama myself and don't look too much in the comments...

KST Jun 25 2024 12:55 pm What an amazing drama. It has totally different plot than other dramas. I am really touched by its story. Jang ki yong won hee has a great chemistry as a couple. I ll recommend this drama to all korean drama fans.

Mulan Jun 24 2024 7:52 am I'm only living in this drama because to Park So Yi and Moon Woo Jin if not for them maybe I'll give up, I don't always like romcoms, so I tried to watch this one, actually I have no problems in morally grey character if it is necessary in story, but I don't live up too in loveline between the main leads they are just like siblings there are no sparks between them and their love strory felt forced it happened very fast, it much better if this story focuses more in father and daughter relationship to make the scene even more beautiful.

Dreii Jun 24 2024 3:12 am I loved it, their acting was on point especially for Chun Wo-Hee. Definitely a good watch and I kinda loved the dark theme and the interiors of their house <3

fullheart5 Jun 23 2024 12:37 pm I am beginning to doubt whether comments or reviews mean anything. Thinking that if you are an action hungry watching, do not watch this drama. If you all about romance and only romance, this may not be your cup of tea. But……..if you enjoy studies in human nature and how life affects us……..this is a great drama to watch. It shows the effects of many of the ails that affect society today can twist our lives. Good tale….enjoyed watching.

Natel Jun 22 2024 4:03 am Sorry this drama is not for me, I just fell asleep when I watched it, I'm not too impressed in the storyline, I'm even more slumped in the drama now, I hope to see more an interesting dramas in the future..

stansunoo Jun 21 2024 7:04 pm Dear The Atypical Family,

I would like to say how thankful I am for the existence of this kdrama. I’d always wait for new episodes to release, even if I was so impatient. The emotions and feelings this kdrama has given me was mixed. I love how this kdrama brought me so much happiness, so much excitement, even so much anger! The last episodes brought me so much sadness but joy too.

I will miss this kdrama. Now that it has ended, I feel very relieved, but gloomy too. This kdrama is just amazing! I love Jang Ki-yong’s new appearance, it was very surprising, I just hope his hair is like that in kdramas from now on hehe. I also love Chun Woo-hee, she did such an amazing job and she’s a very good actress.

Bok Nu-ri is such a hero, he brought his dad back. I miss this kdrama so much. I will cherish the moments I have spent watching this kdrama. I miss waiting for new episodes to release, I miss Gwi-ju and Da-hae’s kissing moments, I’ll miss everything that I spent watching this kdrama. It’s a rlly special kdrama, you know? I love it so much. I want more ppl to know this kdrama, many more ppl need to know how special and incredible this kdrama is!

Thank you The Atypical Family. I’ll rewatch this kdrama again and again, I hope to see more of Jang Ki-yong and Chun Woo-hae?

evoo Jun 21 2024 1:15 pm I could see just two episodes, sorry.

Doctorzais Jun 16 2024 7:58 pm turn the bass up

Baby Jun 15 2024 7:02 pm But they still not told why he was able to see do da hee. Why she was special when not his own wife or parents could see him in past

seeun Jun 15 2024 9:03 am the storyline is literally atypical. i like how Jang Ki Yong expressed the emotion of his character. i also didn't recognize Do Da Hee as the 8th floor from The 8 Show, it's a different person tbh. the beginning is a bit boring and the storyline doesn't make any sense, you'll start to put pieces of the puzzle in the middle part. it's a kinda weird series but i like it.

Lol Jun 14 2024 9:22 pm I wanted to like it, but I just cannot stand Gwiju’s character. The way he did not care about his daughter At All kept pissing me off throughout the entire series and really affected my ability to enjoy it. It’s hard for me to like a character that never made any effort to take care of his daughter, and that’s AFTER the tragedy in his family that he somewhat caused. Him trying to act cute with the FL just annoyed me more lol

RA. Jun 14 2024 11:03 am It was good at the beginning but boring in the middle. It took so long to finish. I think 8 episodes are enough to finish the story line. 12 episodes are too much.

Rider Jun 14 2024 9:49 am Just a bit of a spoiler.

Interesting story, but I wasn't sure what the theme was until the last episode when ML and FL son was able to bring the red ball from the past into the present. Maybe Gwi Ju once had the same power and when his best friend dies in a school fire - he desperately keeps going back into a black and white world to try to save him. He fails every time- and his depression increases - to the point that his marriage begins to frail - and then she dies. He then keeps going back to the moment - again in black and white - when I Na is born - trying to find a way to change it - but failing again. His depression gets worse - the whole family is suffering. Then Da Hae begins to appear in Gwi Ju's past, but in color - like a beacon of light. This drama is about fate - and how your life can vary depending on how you interpret it. You can accept it for what it was - good or bad - and move on, or dwell forever tormenting yourself.

Beginning to watch the series over again - and now everything fits. Well done - the only question I have left is - could it have been even better with different ML and FL. Maybe - but it's done - like fate.

aeri Jun 14 2024 4:11 am i love this drama sm!! the storyline, cast and everything is just perfect but the ending was so unexpected it felt so rush?

Brooklynienne Jun 13 2024 9:54 pm I ❤️ the song "I See You" from the OST by Lee So-ra.

Jim chen Jun 13 2024 9:47 am I give a very high credit for Park So Yi's role as Bok I Na. I like the way she speaks so softly and timid, just truly like an introvert girl is. And when i found out that she was that little girl in PAWN, my fondness deepen. A very talented actress and some awards will just in her reach in the future.

Pan Jun 12 2024 9:15 pm No spoilers :(

joyce Jun 12 2024 12:42 am Thanks and this drama is over! a forgettable drama, I feel underwhelming about it, I thought it is perfect until the end but a lot is missing and it needs an extra episode to make the ending more clear, it's good to watch it once but it's not a rewatchable value.

Lorena Jun 11 2024 6:10 pm I loved this show! The story was unique and interesting. The cinematography was great. The music was so well done. I found every character endearing. The scenes were acted incredibly well - every actor and actress in this show did a phenomenal job. The chemistry between the leads was amazing. The ending was very sweet. I will watch this drama again and again. This one is a top 5 favorite for me!

super underrated 10000/10 kdrama Jun 11 2024 4:00 pm haven’t seen a well-done kdrama in a while, in the sense that you know everything has been done with intention. loved everything about it as it gave me constant warmth and comfort all throughout its run. 10/10 definitely among the top on my list! also wanna say thank you and congratulations to everyone involve in this!

Bee Jun 11 2024 11:21 am I loved this drama so bad 9/10 for me, Gwi-Ju's playfulness in the past and how he healed while in love , I-na was so pitiful and i wanted so bad for her father to wake up and realise that him living in the past caused her so much damage as well as the weight of the grandma's words. I specuated a sad ending but the series was wholesome because i looked forward to seeing it every weekend.

Debs Jun 11 2024 8:18 am Poorly written drama. Confusing storyline which was not clarified despite having 12 episodes. I agree with no chemistry between ML and FL. ML character is selfish and pathetic always looking out for her girlfriend but not his daughter. ML always depressed when a girl leaves him without even thinking about his daughter :(

Pammy Jun 11 2024 8:13 am Thank you @Bokina

kiel Jun 11 2024 2:07 am Unfortunately this drama did not click to me, it so many unanswered questions and I don't like the chemistry between FL and ML, the only I like this drama is Bok I-Na

hihi Jun 11 2024 1:51 am I just notice the father's last name was not Bok :))))))

Dalz Jun 10 2024 11:28 pm Everyone did a good job!The ending brings tears of joy to me ???

Hyperborea Jun 10 2024 2:46 pm A very cute, twisty and exciting series with beautiful and talented actors. Kudos to the writer as well.

Inaya Jun 10 2024 11:12 am Dahae.. idk why i said bokheeㅠㅠ

Bokina Jun 10 2024 11:10 am Reply to @Pammy

Bcs they cant change the past or present. Like it or not, he knows he is the one who saved Dahae and he has to follow the flow.

Inaya Jun 10 2024 11:06 am I love the drama and the happy ending but my concern is, why does i think that gwiju care more abt his loves rather than his daughter? When they got trapped in fire, ina's father called bokhee's name first. And when gwiju lost his first wife, he only think abt how bad he was til got depressed instead of focusing abt inaya. The fact is, only bokhee care abt Ina more than her own family.

Vvsimon Jun 10 2024 9:24 am An interesting drama. I love it. The romance, the parents and friends relationship are told in good way. Happy ending. I need some extra episode or another seasons of this drama.

Mario Jun 10 2024 8:26 am Intresting story, an atypical family indeed but not bcz of their powers but their relationship with eachother, no comunication at all therefore all their phycological problems. Slow paced at some points, very rushed ending and so many questions unanswered. Need an explaination on why GwiJu suddenly could not interact with DaHae when he thought she was dead and went back to warn her, like she had the power to decide when she wants him to be able to interact with items and her and when not... How??? And the end, why he couldn't jump with her and be saved (reminds me of Titanic couple) and then their son, like what in the superpower world ability he has at the age of 5, he can teleport in time that he didn't even existed and even teleport his father, just by looking his pic, he new the time and place to travel back to and teleport him, right?????? He's like small God... In the end, I'm dissapointed with many things bcz it had potentials for a good kdrama but....

Wth Jun 10 2024 8:03 am We want special episode!! I know the ending is a happy ending. Thanks to Nuri. But, I want to see what happen after Nuri bring back his father. I want to see Bok I-Na as highschooler. I want to see Bok Gwiju interaction with his son. I want a longer version of happy ending.

Shuvy Jun 10 2024 8:00 am I thought after watching this drama I would be happy like others but naa!! it's not I feel empty in the story, honestly some dramas of Jang Ki Yong I don't often finish. I give him a chance but in the end I was still disappointed. I don't know if I will watch his dramas next time, maybe he is handsome but unfortunately his drama is not my cup of tea.....

Pammy Jun 10 2024 7:45 am Can anyone tell me why Gwi Ju still need to go back to the past to help Da hae from fire?

Aimen Jun 10 2024 4:04 am I love it with every molecule of my body...ㅠ❤ㅠ

jilli Jun 10 2024 2:04 am I understand that we have different opinions on the drama we watch, but unfortunately this drama did not meet my expectation in the last ep, the ending is rushed for the sake of happy ending, I thought I would fully enjoy this drama but sadly not satisfied in the ending, it's just wasted my time. I wish I hadn't been curious in the remaining Ep. I will not rewatch it no matter what happens. I will rate it 6/10. This drama is not far in the other inconsitent dramas..

Meruchan Jun 10 2024 1:31 am I wanted to drop after watching first two ep cos i didnt like the FL but Im glad i didnt and i must say they wrap up so well for this drama. The last few episodes were really wholesome and heart warming. 9/10!

Webi89 Jun 09 2024 11:23 pm This is so heartwarming. I like it

Yolan Jun 09 2024 8:03 pm I think nuri has stronger power than his father, he can go to the past and the future and interact with it, nuri save his father from the past then take him to the present which is it's his father future. Let's hope there's another season, i had so much fun.

Daisy Jun 09 2024 3:30 pm As other people mentioned it does feels slow but everytime i watched it one episode seem to flies by so fast?? I cannot explain hahaha

Was not expecting myself to cry the last 2 episodes and I would say they wrapped it up warmly. Recommended!

Mi mi mi Jun 09 2024 2:55 pm A well put together drama I am happy to have experienced, it started fast and ended slow but I loved it to the last few minutes.

Somniaji Jun 09 2024 12:27 pm First, the reason I’m watching this drama is because the synopsis mentioned that the main character can go back to the past. Luckily, the drama was good until the end. However, I can’t say it was very favorable for me. It was a bit slow, and the plot moved aesthetically. Hahaha. I can say that the drama was really unique and nice in some ways, but some parts were kind of boring. It didn’t really wow me, and the conflict didn’t make me urgently want to know what happens next.

Yes, I finished the drama, faithfully watching it every Saturday and Sunday. I don’t want to spoil it too much, but the ending was a sad-happy one ?. You know that feeling when a drama contains both happy and sad elements? It really confuses me, hahahaha. I need to check other people’s opinions about this drama as well, hahahahahaha.

Am I recommending it to others? Hm, yes. But if you want a fast-paced drama, you might want to think twice before watching it. This drama might not be suitable for those who really love very fast-paced dramas. However, proceed to watch till the end—it’s good, and you don’t need to think hard. Just enjoy it peacefully.

And I really love Chun Won Hee in this drama. She’s really pretty and sweet. She’s good, and I really want to watch her other past dramas. I know her from the drama “Delightfully Deceitful,” but I haven’t finished that one yet, hahahahah.

Overall, I will give this drama 8/10. It’s a pretty high rating because this drama really gave me a comforting feeling in my heart.

Random supporter Jun 09 2024 12:13 pm (This might be spoiler for those who haven't watch this yet | if you hate this series then Dont Read This) I just watched the last ep.... It's kinda sad at the end but also regain the happiness, like (Ｔ▽Ｔ). Literally need season two even if it's a limited series!! Da-hae's son ended the series ╥﹏╥ hope that he didn't, so there's still another season, lol... Just kidding. Bit It's Worth It To Watch (uhm.. for me..?). It's literally just the ending!!! Like whyyyyyy ? I need another season!

Gegee Jun 09 2024 11:52 am He might go back to the past. can't stay in the present. Sad ending or not???

Minny Jun 09 2024 10:53 am The school girl who also often annoy Baek In Ah. Go Hyerim, she look like actress from Hierarchy who play Haera (Ji Hye Won)

Yol Jun 09 2024 7:59 am The most underrated drama in 2024 i had so much fun, can't wait to see finale episode how gwiju save dahae in the past

fae Jun 08 2024 10:06 pm The fat suit and portrayal of a fat person/bulimia is wrong on so many levels. Very disappointing that k-dramas have come a long way in views of many mental health diagnoses but treat overweight people so poorly by such shoddy representation via fat suits and false/generalized behaviors.

Naya Jun 08 2024 12:39 pm This show ia just not good and the writing is just horrible.

Hana Jun 08 2024 12:32 pm @mia it's a 12 episodes drama, not 10. You can watch in episode 11 where they show more abt donghee story aigoo

strawhat Jun 08 2024 11:10 am @mia if you watch the show, maybe, just maybe then you’d know… what episode are you on that you’re asking all these questions wanting them to be answered so fast? It’s a SHOW with 12 episodes, an hour each at that. wanting everything to be revealed right away takes away the charm. Mind you, the later episodes answers all the questions, which you would know if you patiently watched. lol.

PANDORA Jun 08 2024 11:05 am I cannot explain how incredible the scene of Dong-Hee, Grace, & Da-Hae at the flight scene is, I was sobbing so hard. Amazing show, I’m going to miss my Sat and Sundays.

pomelo Jun 07 2024 10:04 am Hello!, are the episodes just end in ep 12? btw its a nice drama for Gwi-Ju and Do Da Hae! Im from Philippines, these message is just random but i'll make this memory for myself, once again im still waiting for the upcoming episodes, i wish there was episode 13-16 but thank you again.

mia Jun 07 2024 9:21 am i wanna know why we don't have more back story of the sister that is flying? how did she became that size, what made her eat so uncontrollably. what kind of stress or triggered determined her to go from runway model to that level of obesity? is clear that is not only her love for foood getting her there..characters feel a bit too half fleshed, not much growth for most of them either. at the end of the show i bet we won't find out why the main female lead is so important to them, other than he was the one saving her. thisentire past future plot is also very confusing how they navigate thru it...i don't know. the writer could have done better. i don't think main leads lack chemistry, not the best but not the worts either. they are cute togheter, but indeed is har to see the moment they feel for echoter. the only sense i get from him is that he fell when seeing her be kind with his daughter, for her tho, i don't get it. still, kinda of weak. and the flying lady, when is she gonna wake up from being a doormat to that cheating guy. i don't get her, she still goes on with the wedding tho she know not only he cheats, but is after her money. she was talking so beautifully about self respect, but she has none for herself. overall the drama feels very rushed. it feels like they should have explored more the characters. they are all very selfish, but the main lead is on antohe level. my God, he can become too obsessive of the people he lost. let it go dude, try to live in the present too...first his boss then his ex wife...he became depressed even after his first wife, even tho she cheated on him and was expecting antoher child with the man she was about to run with...he says his daughter birth was the best moment yet he completly forgets about her for years and years...i don't know...i'm not feeling it. i assume is not gonna be a happy end, but for sure we won't get many answers. the sauna thugs are kina usseless and annoying to this story

Onie Jun 07 2024 12:42 am No chemistry between ML and FL :( the chemistry felt forced. So disappointed.

Sunny Jun 06 2024 5:50 pm The romance btw lead actors hasn’t developed well. I didn’t understand when & how bok gwi ju fell in love with her. The story of romantic relationship is weak, it has flaws.

I usually like chun woohae’s acting. I am following her movies and dramas since I watched her in “love, lies” first. However it seems like this time she chose a drama with unfortunate scenario.

Horangae Jun 05 2024 4:40 pm The story kinda reminds me of Encanto. Halmoni has the same attitude/character as Abuela. Power only matters to them.

Umee Jun 04 2024 8:28 pm It's really not typical a korean drama, it is quirky drama, feels like a roller coaster watching each episode, it's unpredictable, and we have to watch every scene so we will not miss any details. the cast has their own charm, even Bok In Na the grand pa. the main cast look strong outside but they have soft heart inside.. each of them carry out their own missery of the past..

jeajea Jun 04 2024 3:13 pm the drama is average, good actors but lack that special chemistry. like i don't believe that they will sacrifice or die for each other. the child actress (ina) is the only good written character the rest are meh

Blanca Trueba Jun 04 2024 6:41 am @Ina - you got the point there, and you are right. Gwiju is not a good father to Ina. And even before Dahae came to the family, Ina had been neglected by EVERY single member of the family, not only her father.

And that's what the drama's story is trying to tell us. Poor little girl.

Strawhat Jun 03 2024 9:42 pm She’s a natural, no over the top performance. He’s effortless.. the cast have good chemistry, and the characters, even the minor ones all have significance.. The storyline is satisfying with little details in the overall story, like how he started wearing colourful clothes unlike before when he only wore black. That being said, I also agree with some of the things @Ina said below.

Ina Jun 02 2024 8:03 pm Idk, I kinda hate the dad, he's selfish to be a hero and for his own happiness. I guess the plot tried to make you understand him, he was being pulled in the past by his power, plus depression and then romantic love heals him. But what about his fatherly love, what about him as a father. I tried to understand until ep10, he remained the same, Ina comes last of his priorities, of his reason to live, of who he is (father). Yes, I get the thing he saying that how can he be a father to Ina if Dahae made him depressed & lose power again. Why is it so dependent on his own-romantic happiness. I know, our parents are humans too, they need to have self-love, they need to be happy & whole on their own so they could love their kids, but it's just so cruel for Ina. It's not that he couldn't fall in love again, but it's just sad that he can't be a good single-father to Ina. He's going through something, that's for sure, but that'll scar her daughter who's just growing up. I appreciate Dahae & Hyeong-tae's relationship w/ Ina more than her own father/family.

Well I guess, the lead shouldn't be always that perfect, but anyways it's just so annoying, but kind of realistic how this could happen to parent-child relationships.

Conor Jun 02 2024 6:24 pm Chun Woo-Hee is absolutely stunning. What a beautiful lady! Really good actor. Cant get enough of her. Would love to see her in another series.

Grasshopper Jun 02 2024 1:04 pm No no no i love chubby Dong Bong hee....!!

psy milestone Jun 01 2024 10:42 pm taebak psy..! In ep 9, you got your longest and hardest scene so far. You passed it with flying colors. Was it that difficult during the filming of that particular scene? Congrats...! Looking forward to see more long and difficult scenes with you in it in the future. You may throw a celebratory party for that particular scene later on with the whole drama crews but of course just milk shake drinking session not soju one. lol. Lots eyes on you from now on.

rara Jun 01 2024 7:38 pm I'm so scared to watch ep 10. looking at the preview something is going to happen to da hee.

I M Jun 01 2024 3:03 pm Just Fantastic, liked this from the beginning, here after watching episode 9! VERY believable characters, excellent casting and acting,very believable family dynamics, also bonus of an endearing kid to root for in the show!! There are fantastical elements in the plot but everything else feels so real, this is a magical combination. Too bad it's only 12 episodes!!!

Kasih Jun 01 2024 8:33 am So in Love with this drama, love the characters, love the cinematography, love the music, love the story. I can't even hate the do da hae's family. It's too bad that there are just 12 episodes. ?

Jena May 31 2024 3:00 pm Watching for the kids ngl the drama is mid!

Grace Chhuan Awmi May 30 2024 7:12 am I enjoy this drama.

jojo May 30 2024 5:10 am this drama actually deserves more attention, more love.. 10/10 love this drama so muchh, especially the plot * chef's kiss * Mwuachhhh I like dramas with plots and genres like this, highly recommended and i think the atypical family is a Must drama to watch

Johnd May 29 2024 9:32 am Love the series. Yong and Hee are both starting to get into their characters now. Both started as stereotypes but they are now developing, and some parts you love and some parts ahem!! The greatest though for me is Park so-wi.She started as the plain weak child, inhibited, shy and introverted, but slowly her real character is coming through strongly, because of her ability as an actor. I am always wondering what is the next facet of her character to appear. The bad family are also typical stereotypes, but you know by the end they are going to end up changed.

But what makes this drama, is it's magical quality, dragging you in and making you think what's next. And the serene beauty of Chun woo hee. A great ensemble cast who all fulfil their storyline. Love it!!

Ada May 29 2024 8:43 am This drama reminds me of the novel “The Time Traveler’s Wife.” I love the drama. I think episodes 7 and 8 feel sort of draggy though. I truly hope it picks up in upcoming episodes. The cinematography is cool. I like the music. I love how refreshing this drama is. Not your regular kdrama.

hihi May 29 2024 2:53 am @Steve : totally agree with you, some touching scenes, some love scenes, they put the wrong melodies and make me feel like something could be Disney movie happen :))) The music sometimes too loud and not necessary. From a little girl played young DukMi in Her Private Life, SoYi turns into Ina - mysterious with her cool acting, the way she says things, how much she knows life, very impressive! Also her crush, I knew him since The Devil Judge as young Yohan, now he grew up, and keep all the traits. Something cool but warm inside. Hope to see him more at his 20s late ???

j May 28 2024 6:52 am I already watched many kdramas. I don't usually comment pero I will on this one. I recommended to watch this on your free time.

Zee May 28 2024 5:46 am Everything about this drama is 10/10. The acting, directing and writing are just perfect. I would definitely recommend

ma May 27 2024 9:04 pm I love this drama. All the team are amazing. Especially, the actress, Chun Woo-Hee, her acting is amazing in this drama. Also two child, Park So-Yi and Moon Woo-Jin, I love them very mush. Hope they will be the future stars.

Albeitdiy May 27 2024 2:31 pm Nope. The director don't make a mistake in Episode 7 and 8. First you have to understand, the supposedly wedding has already happened a week before. For a week or so, Gwi-Ju has gone to the wedding scene many times. But in this case, as an audience we could see him go through it 2 times. First, the night after the wedding, in a suit. Second, in his green shirt, after Ina told him, Da Hee might being locked up. So he did checked, and Da Hee was slapped by her mother. Then the drama cut to when he arrived back to the present time - the night Dong Hee was in hospital - and made an arrangement with the scammers. The clue is in colour.

the wick May 27 2024 4:31 am this drama is underrated as hell man

Blanca Trueba May 26 2024 8:34 pm This is one of the dramas that I would be very sad when each episode ends and that I need to wait for a week after watching the Sunday episodes.

fadiline May 26 2024 1:30 pm Or maybe I'm wrong! and he teleported himself into the past at this moment to try to change it as he explained to the main actress!!!

fadiline May 26 2024 1:15 pm The directors made a mistake in episode 7: in the last scene we see that the main actor comes from the future since he vanished at the end, and we know well that when this is the case , no one can see him except the main actress, but in this scene the other actors were able to see him when he showed up to make his partnership proposal! it's a bit weird though

Honey May 26 2024 12:43 pm They are

Steve May 26 2024 11:48 am The music in this drama is both a strength - the twinkle melody that signals a return to the past - and a big weakness - the music is often melancholy when the mood is not. The story has been mostly good so far, although episodes 7 & 8 were duds. The last two episodes were too slow without enough plot to move the story forward.

In response to Pandora's comment below: I would argue that Flowers Like Sand is the best drama so far in 2024. No time travel, no superheroes, no gore - a simple, straightforward romance that is both captivating and rewarding.

Grasshopper May 26 2024 11:24 am I love her smile ?

Mi mi mi May 25 2024 1:51 pm I love how ki-Yong has embraced his fate kikiki

PANDORA May 25 2024 12:08 pm Absolutely The Most Amazing Drama of 2024. Such an unique storyline, the production and acting are top notch, I’m Obsessed!

Jilenie May 25 2024 8:28 am Typical story of a family with alcoholic father ... To hard to watch ... The title mush be Rewind

Mi mi mi May 25 2024 5:48 am I look forward to Saturday and Sunday cause of this drama and I want to be one of those that keeps me wanting till episode 12 and nonchalantly look forward to a season two ????( side note to the writer).

Ify May 24 2024 8:56 pm I am loving this show so much, it's just so refreshing, I love it cause it's not your usual cutesy overly glamorized type of drama but at the same time it's also not too dark and gory, it's just right and honestly all that I look forward to during the week

Hyperborea May 23 2024 1:42 pm Very entertaining and cool series. Each subsequent episode is funnier than the previous one. In addition, ML and FL are exceptionally beautiful. Sigh

hihi May 23 2024 7:37 am everything is going very well, I really like chun woo hee's acting, can't predict what she will do next, and the chemistry between KiYong and Chun Hee is very cute. What I don't like here is that the music distracts me too much. Personally, I think there are many other ways to use it for fantasy movies but it really seems a bit excessive. Good job!

NHL218 May 22 2024 10:09 pm I like this genre!

Kk May 22 2024 3:49 am love this drama- not your typical romance story where everything’s so predictable for the average watcher definitely reminds me of parasite and I love the unpredictable plot and the emerging romance of the two leads that show love will always win despite negative circumstances the movie doesn’t fit everyone’s expectations, since it’s about redemption, fate, and shows nobody’s perfect in this world but despite negative comments, I would recommend and give it a try!

Conny May 21 2024 6:39 pm I don't like this series. Don't recommend.

Yana May 21 2024 5:23 pm This show is like a mix of the suspicious housekeeper and parasite. Been loving it so far. Every character is so wack. My favourite character in the obese sister. She is so quick-witted and perceptive and hilarious

D Marq May 21 2024 9:48 am This is a beautiful modern romance drama. It has a unique story line that puts you at the edge of your seat . The casts are performance was very good. Leads are very charming too. If you like love and redemption , this is worthy to watch .

babz May 21 2024 12:06 am Omg I'm 33 years old but I'm so kilig with Ina and Junwoo.. also the story is not predictable nice story and the character done so well.. I love it

Wew May 20 2024 7:42 am This drama is going to be a modern classic. I am sure of it. Its so damn good!

Babymonster May 20 2024 4:04 am Junwoo and Ina? the cutest couple ever ??? i love them sm

Sam_Han Jun-Woo♡Bok I-na May 20 2024 3:51 am it's annoying, why is it only episode 12, it should be episode 16, I really like Han Jun-Woo and Bok I-na's chemistry. I hope they will be together again in the same kdrama.

Sam_Han Jun-Woo♡Bok I-na May 20 2024 3:46 am Han Jun-Woo, he likes bok I-na, well I can't blame him because Bok I-na is really beautiful.

stansunoo May 20 2024 2:16 am I love this kdrama! The ending of episode 6 makes me more excited for episode 7 lol.

Reading the comments, some comments are dismissive though but as for me, I enjoyed the kdrama a lot. The acting and storyline is good for me and I know lots of other people think the same! I keep rewatching the episodes bcz of good the kdrama is.

sf May 20 2024 12:58 am I'm glad whenever Do Da-Hae is shocked or stressed. She is a cheater and deserves all that happens to her.

Baby May 19 2024 5:06 pm Mysterious drama

Mi mi mi May 19 2024 2:43 pm @Moon cycle thank for response I feel in love with the FL tonight for the 6th time too. Her acting is a beauty to behold and I can't wait for the next two episodes. Kudos to the writer and director...

Luna May 19 2024 1:34 pm It's so gooddd! Please everyone give it a try! I really like the plot so far, hopefully it will get better until the end because it's refreshing

Dora May 19 2024 1:07 pm Chun Woo-Hee is currently my favourite korean actress!!? Her acting is fantastic and she's so pretty omg!!

Just_leaving_comment_about_chunwoohee May 19 2024 11:02 am I swear this drama is good, please give it a try. Many comments on FL are so unnecessary, she acts good here, it is just her character not like the ‘innocent type without any flaw’. She’s pretty, and of course you can trust her acting, just look at her profile, she’s on so many movies! Also, I really like the music!

Seji May 18 2024 5:13 pm I actually like this drama and the characters in it. Only one thing bothers me. I know the FL is older than the ML in real life but how come she was just high schooler when he was already a working adult and a new dad during the fire…it doesn’t make sense. She looked more like a teacher. Because as it is she doesn’t look any younger than the ML. Oh well, just that otherwise the story is good.

lyde May 18 2024 9:21 am I have been reading some reviews of this drama. A lot of them are negative; I almost didn't watch it. But thankfully, I still gave it a try and have even come to like this drama. The English title itself says "atypical," and it really is quite intriguing and unusual for me. I am not fond of the supernatural and fantasy genres, but this one isn't overdone. And what I particularly like about this drama is its colors and how it gives me a slice of life. Really interesting.

For those who want to watch this but are quite getting bothered because of the comments, I hope you give it a try, especially if what they're saying is something that is negotiable or not really a big deal with you.

Only four episodes have aired, but I would rate it 9 out of 10 or 8.5, to say the least. ?❤️

Matryoshka May 16 2024 8:38 am Well, i know their dynamic is really atypical.. but the fmc character is somewhat makes me not excited

Juanxkui May 16 2024 4:50 am Finally!!! Jang Ki Yong is back!!!! My gosh he look so good with this kind of style as well. Can’t wait for the next episodes❤️❤️❤️❤️

fairyooj May 15 2024 7:45 am woohee performance never disappoint ugh i love her

Simplygirl May 15 2024 7:21 am why i see FL like marie kondo.. hahahaa

lan May 15 2024 4:05 am this drama is so interesting, im looking forward to all the revealations on the next episodes!

Norma May 14 2024 5:45 pm This drama getting interesting love it!

Anonymous May 14 2024 5:43 pm I have the felling that Do Da Hae was in the fire incident that happened the day I-na was born.

Lyssa May 13 2024 1:47 pm Anyone know the sing at the end of the episodes?

Brooklynienne May 13 2024 11:49 am I'm on episode three, and so far, I'm loving this. Its rhythm differs from many other dramas, and I find myself perplexed by the mixture of tone and registers. I'm looking forward to later episodes. I already adore the ML and FL and the daughter who will no doubt get a haircut soon!

I am May 13 2024 5:55 am I'm watching because of Jang Ki yong but why do I feel bored? I dont feel any chemistry with the two main lead, Ki yong and Won hee. Its more interesting to watch and more interesting for the two teen, I-na snd Joon woo. I think they havr more chemistry and connectoon

Lu May 13 2024 4:30 am Kdrama doesnt disappoint. Right after Queen of Tears and when you worry what will I watch now, Bang, Atypical! This show is awesome, every time I watch an episode I get even more exciting with anticipation of what could possibly come. I love it when a show is so unique and innovative that you can't tell whats next. The fat suit girl's needs to get awesome she shudnt needn't need to lose weight to get a guy that sees her and that lil kid has the worst power cos ppl are horrible n nobody would like anybody if they heard their thoughts. I wished I had the fortitude to not watch it and then watch it when all episodes are out! But its so good its like Demon Slayer 2 me.... Its nothing like that Midnight romance with a scene of adults fightin whether a paragraph is a paradox o ironic. Fr half the episode i got bored n stopped watching episode 1 il wait there for all the episodes easily

Jaja May 13 2024 2:42 am I am wondering why only FL in color whenever ML travel back to the past.

Lorena May 12 2024 3:59 pm Aimen, I agree, that scream was hysterical! And I absolutely love the music that plays during the scene when Do Da-Hae was cooking the next morning. It really made me feel the amusement of that scene. This show has me looking forward to every episode!

Mi mi mi May 12 2024 2:20 pm I'm grateful to the writer and director of the series cuz I never imagined I'll come across such a beautiful masterpiece in this month. The kiss in the fourth episode was mine blowing and the female lead carries her character very well, i look forward tomorrow episode.

Hura May 12 2024 1:48 pm How Can ML Get Easily Manipulated By Snake Daheeee??!!!! Aaarrgghhh i hate that typical character.. thought i’ll skipp the rest of episodes. Bye

Haru May 12 2024 12:33 pm From now on this is another series that I'll patiently wait every week. When I watched the first episode, I don't think I would like this drama because of the complicated female lead. The female lead is really different from typical romance k-drama; swindler.

Typical romance k-drama gave you female lead that is pretty, nice, foolish, likeable, energetic, positive and everything good that made you like her and always on her side. But female lead here is different. She is messy, she made you doubt her. And strangely this female lead made me stayed and keep watching this drama. You didn't trust her when she said Bok Gwi Ju gave her the flower but then it proved that she said the truth. You'll slowly trust her but again all she said in 4th episode doesn't make any sense and than you'll wondering "is she saying the truth or is she just a liar who's taking advantage of Bok Gwi Ju superpower?"

But I hope that Bok Gwi Ju is really safe her during the fire incident.

Charlene Tavarez May 12 2024 11:55 am Da Hee isn't bad, it's the woman she lives with that is taking advantage of her and using her.

Daisy May 12 2024 11:06 am I am wondering why Bok Gwiju and Bok Donghee takes their mother's surnames? does that means something?

Jen May 12 2024 2:29 am this gives me Parasite vibes and I love it.

each character is flawed and are so in their own world, that they don't see how they're harming each other. even the superhero family as well.

they're messy and humans are messy. they're people. they feel like people. not everyone is likeable and it makes it enjoyable.

Dahee May 12 2024 12:36 am This series is getting interesting. Love the sets and camerawork.

Claire May 11 2024 5:17 pm It’s really an interesting story, but there are some things I don’t like as well for now. First dont like how the story focuses repeatedly on the past. Because of that I had to skip some parts but there are some less obvious parts in the story which I look forward to see. Further, the writer tries to depict the female negatively, so I and I wish it will change for in the future because the dialogues of the Fl delivers positivity as well.

Abc May 11 2024 2:09 pm FL might not be a bad person. She might be bad with bad and good with good. We will have to wait and see.

iaui May 11 2024 1:48 pm whatever happens in the future, please don't let FL end with ML... just focus on ML and I-Na... I really don't like the devious character of FL and his family... they have to suffer unforgivable karma... if FL ends with ML , I will stop watching this drama

Aimen May 11 2024 1:29 pm The screammmmmmm>>>>>>> love love Love this.....ㅋㅋㅋㅋ❤❤❤❤❤

Grace Diamond May 11 2024 12:20 pm The first 2 episodes were interesting. Just watched the 3rd and it's good as well. I like it so far. I Def want the FL to fall harder cuz she's a fraud for now -__ -

catman May 09 2024 5:45 am Off to great and intriguing start! It's a fun drama with just enough mystery to keep going. And I really like the female lead! Anyways, quite cute, quite mysterious, recommend giving it a watch.

P.S. Yi-na is adorable. Makes you wanna protect her. Aaah how I wish I had a younger sister.

anderi2264 May 08 2024 9:05 am This review is for the 1st episode only.

I won't watch the rest, mainly due to the fact that if the writers and the cast are not able to capture the viewer's attention 30 minutes in, it's probably not worth the time to watch the rest.

Story and pace: It's more interesting to watch paint dry... Nothing of interest really happens...

Plot Development: Hard to determine after only one episode, but it seems they are going for Dark Comedy(?), but it wasn't really remotely funny... It seems they attempt to blend family drama, comedy, and superhero elements, but the mix doesn't always feel seamless.

Wew May 08 2024 1:53 am Intriguing first two episode!! Really looking forward for next episodes!

Gizell May 07 2024 8:48 pm Great story! I really am enjoying this creative journey!

MeAm May 07 2024 10:26 am I don't like the character of the FL much. I would have preferred if they focused more on his relationship with his first wife.

Xylmir May 07 2024 5:38 am A family that loses their powers due to modern lifestyle disease is an awesome idea for a storyline I like it. The mother thinks that Do-Da-Hee is their saviour in getting things back to normal but it could mean that her premonition of the dream is trying to warn her. I believe I-na has got something to do with their downfall alot of curiosity left unanswered for maybe this is a good thing to find redemption amongst themselves but their are gaps to see that needs filling with the group that the lead actress is working with.

Pretty awesome so far this series it's good to see Soo-Hyun from Avengers: Age of Ultron and the Marvel reference as well quite funny.

Swifty May 07 2024 1:04 am SPOILERS people need to lighten up with the scam story!

they will become good people after finding love

the musicman from the 50's or 60's kinda same story

scammer comes to town to scam the whole town. falls in love with the town librarian and becomes a good man!

this story we see 2 broken people who will get fixed by eachother

a deadbeat dad, and a scammer. find eachother and become a good man

the story so far has shown a child needs a father and a mother(the bathroom "accident" scene)

Hwa May 06 2024 6:21 pm The story is good and they say it is shot also. I don’t mind the scam story however I feel it is a bit too much to use the little girl when she needs help the most. I’m pretty sure she knows she has power and think she killed her mother. She doesn’t need more trauma and trust issue :(

Mi mi mi May 06 2024 2:06 pm Finally a k-drama to look forward to every week. The plot is sweet and funny and the FL is good, I enjoyed her in deceitful delightful.

Soma May 06 2024 11:49 am The FL character behaviour is nasty. It has the potential to be a really good drama but her gold digging lying ways are too much. How can she arrange to get the young daughter stalked. Thats evil. Like how can we root for the ML to fall in love with her. Nah I want the ML and his family to escape her clutches. Are we supposed to think they deserve to be scammed just cos they are rich or used to have superpowers.

Coco May 06 2024 10:33 am Finally a drama with a unique plotline. Interested to see the development of the storyline. Love the leads.

KM May 06 2024 1:13 am Woo Hee seems to be running a delightfully deceitful team again. Interesting plot.

cb May 05 2024 7:06 pm as much as i agree with the fact that the things that the fl are doing are pretty scummy, that should not overshadow the fact that the ml's family are just as guilty. being filthy rich, not from working hard or even by generational wealth, but by using their powers? there is no moral/ethical standing about this whatsoever, so i'm not sure why i'm seeing many people claiming that the family is so innocent.

sure, that's not a good enough reason for the fl to be scamming them the way she is, but we are also only two episodes in. we are not sure why she has targeted this family, but there may be another reason/a bigger picture?

anyways, i'm enjoying it so far!! i'm so curious about the daughter, as her story is the most interesting to me yes ~

lala May 05 2024 6:24 pm I love when women are flawed in shows. It's refreshing from the bubbly, perfect characters.

Bring On The Angst.

Judith May 05 2024 5:11 pm I agree with Candi below; and am reminded very much of 'My Mister" where the FL was also an unscrupulous scammer.

Candi May 05 2024 2:46 pm Sorry, I will have to drop this one.. Lets see the FL is a gold digging scammer who is not scamming bad people but a good family going through a hard time. She is literally preying on a hopeful mother who wants to help her depressed son get over the loss of his wife. How is she going to do that? Easy, she targets the depressed man's. motherless teenage daughter who is deeply insecure and to add to it.. she sends a guy to chase to stalk the young girl. I'm sorry, we are suppose to root for this character?

I dont care about whatever redemption arc or her feeling bad later and really starting to love the family. Nope, she is a hard pass for me. She is a conniving liar who has been married TWICE and scammed those guys too it seems and as an audience member I cant trust her nor like her. Its sad because i LOVE Jang Ki Young but the FL is too gross for me to get pass.. I am okay with morally questionable leading ladies but not slimy, gross ones that use children to obtain their objective..

Joyjosh May 05 2024 11:05 am Prologue of this drama scene at sea cliff reminds me the movie called "miss peregrine's home for peculiar children" everyone in family had gifted special powers. But this drama kinda different from current kdrama where's FL in a good behavior with good family background instead FL is very cunning and liar about her family background. Just thumb up's ?? exciting storyline worth to watch Jang ki yong comeback?.

Char May 04 2024 2:04 pm Just watching the first episode and it has the same genre as String Girl Namsoon. I like these kinds of kdramas so I’m looking forward to watching this on the weekends.

Aoi Apr 27 2024 8:06 am Really? Grabbing the FL in the street before a bike passing? If it's not ironic, good writers should not use it. It makes me doubt it got that innovative factor I'm looking in a story.

Chey Apr 19 2024 3:21 am Hope he comes back with a bang with this drama as most actors did after their military service in which they raked most Acting Awards such as Song Joong Ki in Descendants of the Sun, Kang Ha Neul in When the Camellia Blooms, just to name a few.

I miss Jang Ki Yong in genres such as Come and Hug Me which is still one of my faves among his dramas.

angaebi Mar 19 2024 7:14 am I'm expected Park Soi in this drama and also Kim Sol debut~

Jew Feb 22 2024 8:02 pm Wooh! Jang Kiyong is Back!!!

strawberry latte Feb 18 2024 8:31 am seated for chun woo hee!! I'm so excited to see her on screen!!

Grace Feb 08 2024 7:48 am Ki-Yong is my number1 fave actor ❤️

Wayne White Dec 14 2023 5:06 am I'll be anticipating this upcoming movie????

L Nov 01 2023 11:37 pm Yes!!! Ki- Yong is my favorite actor... ive missed him so much. i cant wait for this drama!!!!

Shy Oct 05 2023 6:39 pm plot is intriguing..looking forward to this drama.
