Finally found my favorite Korean Drama!

It is not easy (more like impossible) to point out your favorite movie/book/food or in my case: Korean Drama.

My favorite Korean drama: Mr. Sunshine premiered on air & Netflix on July 7, 2018. I apparently saw it in the start of 2022 yet I'm unable to move on from it. I can rewatch it many times and yet feel the connection. 😙

Mr. Sunshine is the PERFECT example of show with strong plot, awesome cast, beautiful visuals and soothing OSTs.

I can talk a lot about this drama even (in Korean too as I am inclined to it !). There are a few Korean words which pop up whenever I reminisce about Mr. Sunshine:

순진한 (sunjinhan) - Innocent
그립소 (geribsoo) - Miss You (old form)

It has 24 episodes which span to an hour and an half covering the era 1871's Korea showcasing the influence of The USA and Japan. The chemistry between the two main protagonist are Lee Byung Hun and Kim Tae Ri is phenomenal and adored by many.

There are many fan videos available on YouTube but my favorite one is this:

During my first isolation, back in June, when the first unlock happened in India, I understood the meaning of "being connected". It was not just limited to being f2f (which I love) but also virtually but not limited to the Internet. During this period my friends were providing me daily meals by leaving it by the door. Despite of not seeing or communicating with them much, I wasn't lonely. In fact I thought about other...
