Don't usually write reviews but with there not being many on here I felt compelled to. The acting and chemistry between the 2 main characters captivating and a lovely push and pull that keeps you rooting for them. It's funny and light hearted at times, also heart warming and deep, that gets you thinking about your own relationships and connections. Although it features fantasy elements of a family with super powers there are some really poignant real life themes. Theres some great character development and plenty of twists and turns. It has everything you want in a South Korean Drama, they just know how to do it right! I am wholly obsessed with KDramas and for good reason. I have been eagerly awaiting each new episode and the ending didn't disappoint. The story line is wonderful, it is just beautifully done, I shed a little happy tear at the end and really hoping for a season 2.

Prepare to be swept away by the heartwarming tale of the atypicalfamily, where every moment surpasses expectations with its unique storyline and beautiful character development. This drama is a delightful blend of love, growth, and family, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that keeps viewers coming back for more.

What sets this drama apart is its refreshing and original storyline. With each episode, the drama unfolds new surprises and twists, keeping the audience hooked and eagerly anticipating what's next. It's a breath of fresh air in the world of dramas, offering a truly unique and captivating viewing experience.

The love story is beautifully unique, with a chemistry between the couple that is both heartwarming and genuine. Their relationship unfolds in a way that feels natural and authentic, drawing viewers in and keeping them invested in their journey from beginning to end.

And let's not forget about the acting, which is nothing short of phenomenal. Jang Ki Yong, in particular, shines in his role, bringing his character to life with a depth and authenticity that is truly impressive. His portrayal is so convincing that it's impossible not to be completely engrossed in his character's journey, especially as a father, where his performance is both endearing and inspiring.

In conclusion, the atypical family is a friendly reminder of the power of love, growth, and family. With its unique storyline, beautifully developed characters, and phenomenal acting, it's a must-watch for anyone looking for a heartwarming and uplifting drama experience.

I can empathize with the characters as I have depression, anxiety, and multiple health issues. They are people who are unable to perform to the best of their ability and they just happen to be have super powers.

The "fat" sister is wholly unbelievable. No one spends the rent money on food. No fat person is constantly thinking of eating...they just become fat because of various issues, usually related to health.

My issue is with the "mysterious" woman who saves the main character from drowning. It appeared to be happenstance that she was there at the beach, but then later it appeared to be some type of grift. I will continue to watch to see where this show is going with the plot.

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.

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!
