    I'm just...speechless...

    I now understand why this drama is so well rated. I just finished it and I'm literally speechless. I don't even know what to say...

    One thing I know though. It fully deserves every star I gave it. I'd give it even more if it were possible.

    A Truly exceptional Drama

    A real tear jerker of a series: it could've been a turn off if they pitched the relationship between the lead characters wrongly, ie a young woman and a middle aged man, but it turned out very effectively done; so emotional and beautiful at the same time. The plight of the characters really affected me deeply, it's such a brilliant story.

    Bitter Sweet

    I have watched all the episodes 4 times already. Nothing more to recommend. Watch it and feel it. Everything is excellent from Directing, Writing, Acting and all OSTs.

    My mister

    This drama is a unique drama that does not portray the fantasy/romance world of dramas, but instead shows the value of life.

    Astonishing, brutal, beautiful...

    My Ajussi is far, far, FAR from the average Korean TV drama, though the vital part of longing and lingering feelings runs as deep as ever in this dark, brutal and beautiful story of love. Lived. Lost. Abandonned. Found.

    The drama is gifted with strong characters. Also in the supporting roles. All struggling and wrapped in the curse and poetry of daily life filled with dark corners and moral choices.

    From the perspective of a Scandinavian viewer, the story is told with a strangely familiar "Nordic Noir" grip and is definately some of the best Korean drama I have ever wiewed. Adding that I have viewed a lot.
