Una familia atípica

The settings is not normal to show a beautiful romance but I see the writer is a genius. A man who wanted to be a hero but wasn't able to be, then became just for one person. It has the family thing in it but English title(The Atypical Family) is not telling what the show wants to tell. I like the Korean title("Although I'm not a hero") more. All the actor are good but Claudia(Suhyun?) Kim is the best. It's not like acting I feel like there's that kind of person living next to me. I watched until ep8 and every episode was amazing. The ending song perfectly goes well with the show. I hope the rest also be the same good enough.

This show is a definite binger! The story is unique and beautiful, with comedy, tragedy, and all the rest of our human emotional spectrum portrayed by sensational actors. What you think it is from the description is not at all what it turns out to be, and each turn in the plot is just riveting. This series should be on every "essential K-drama" list, and I think everyone in the world should see it.

Yes, there are superpowers, but this isn't a superhero series. It is really about a family and all the elements that make a family a family.

The acting is just superb throughout, even from the your girl playing Bok In-Na. I was thoroughly impressed by the entire series and cast.

What would you do if you knew that the person you love is going to tragically die in an attempt to save you? This series forces you to make choices you'll never want to make in this life. The timeline is not a straight arrow but rather a gray area where past, present and future coexist simultaneously. Love is the real protagonist of this drama where even professional scammers turn out to be soft hearted in the end. Superpowers are gifts granted to an atypical family appearing rather disfunctional but something is about to happen: an unusual woman is going to enter their life... A must watch for sci-fi lovers with an incredibly profound message for your heart: don't close it!

This series has a sophisticated, atmospheric magic blended with real life traumas and believable characters. People in the drama are flawed, but relatable and likeable.

In "The Atypical Family" story as well as character development expands with an atmosphere - the colour tones, the music scores as well as sound design, and the easily flowing caesural pauses allowing the viewers to take in the vastness of the scene settings, the seriousness of the situations. One could almost compare this drama to a poetry. Actors and their characters are allowed pauses to think, not to say that they're slow, on the contrary, it makes them and their choices more believable.

The script and most chosen actors are spectacular in their roles. The characters are written as smart, thinking, conniving ones, not by making others extremely dull and stupid, but by letting them make smart decisions, allowing them to have multiple purposes. Not a single person here is B&W, they all have their own personal colour pallets.

For now (6th episode) I could name only one major drawback - the ML's sister. Her character is overweight, but acted by a slim actress, which makes her movements and mannerisms not genuine and weird.

All in all I find the story refreshing and interesting, the clashing of one dysfunctional family with a fake united one, the deadpan comedy, the pain of trauma and not managing to let go of the past.

I first Thought about giving it up in first few episodes as too slow, confusing time travel and repetitive, but i managed to keep going and the show grew on me, the slow burn turns to gold. The characters evolved from depressive to develop and endear themselves into your heart. It had its faults but miraculously pulled it all together. It was Magical, intriguing and superbly acted by the female lead and the mother and the children. Even the facial expressions of the male scammer got to me. Couldn't stop watching it after the slow messy start. Deep and meaningful. Sure to watch it again and again!
