Title: Individualist Ms. Ji Young
Genre: Romance, Comedy
Episodes: 2
Broadcast
period: 2017-May
Cast: Min Hyo Rin, Gong Myung, Ji Il Joo and Oh Na
Ra.
Na Ji Young (Min Hyo Rin) dislikes people and
likes being alone. Or that is what she says. In real life she is lonely, but is
afraid to get hurt, so she distances herself from everyone, as much as
possible. Even in relationships she has a distance, making sure she won’t get
emotionally invested.
Park Byuk Soo (Gong Myung) is the complete
opposite. He has a lot of friends and is always in a relationship, with all his
emotions invested. He is afraid about being alone, so all his efforts go to
being everyone’s friend. Unfortunately, that makes him ‘easy’ and ‘annoying’ to
everyone around him.
Being neighbors they both never really
talked, until one day when they both meet in the hallway while breaking up with
their partners. Soon the two get more and more involved in each other lives,
and soon they become more than just neighbors…
This being a 2 episodes special, I have been
trying not to spoil much, but I hope I got the essence of it.
I like this special a lot – it had so much
soul, storytelling and character development, in just 2 hours. I was sad when I
found out it was a special, but I think that is the magic of it – every scene
was filled with ‘actual human emotions’ and not over-dramatized acting and
storytelling. I was pleasantly surprised and I think I found a gem!
To sum up: an emotional drama – with more seriousness
than comedy.
