A straightforward PSA about living single.
Remember being in school and gathering for assembly so the teachers or guest speakers could pop in a VHS about fire safety, stranger danger, or how to say no to drugs?
That's what watching this miniseries felt like. From the preachy dialogue right down to the cheesy acting, the often over-exaggerated version of reality it presents to us tries very hard to explain the harmful side-effects of giving in to peer pressure and forcing a life of dating on someone who does not want to participate in it.
To its credit, it does summarize and clearly lay out the facts:
Just because someone's life doesn't look exactly like yours doesn't mean they aren't fulfilled by it.
Platonic love (for a person or a pet!) is just as important and fulfilling as romantic love and neither one should be valued more highly than the other.
Forcing yourself to date someone when you know you aren't interested will only hurt both of you in the end.
Admittedly, perhaps the preachy, in your face, no room for interpretation nature of the series is unfortunately needed in order to get the point across to the people it's trying to reach. It's short, surprisingly sweet, and to the point. So, overall, it will probably do a lot of good for those who need to hear what it has to say.
Also, Bo-ram and Oi the cat are the best characters. You can't prove me wrong. <3
