Wherever i find a drama
At first i was hesitant to watch Chicago typewriter. I thought i'd had enough of dramas that had a promising plot but proceeded to ruin it in every way possible. After leaving it at episode 1 twice, i decided to complete it in one go. Wisest decision i've made in my life.
Story
As you can see, Chicago typewriter is a dual era drama. And it delivers. It goes back and forth between present day and the Japanese invaded korea. The subtle writing, going beyond your usual kdrama cliches and at the same time gives you this strong, beautifully tragic story. A drama that stays true to its plot and doesn't ruin it with overused "plot twists" and "romance cliches" we've all had enough of. Chicago typewriter is really a feast if you're a sucker for good plots.
Acting/Cast
How would you feel if you carried the weight of your past life with you? Met your friends after 80 years? What would you do to get answers long gone in the past? Watch as the cast of Chicago typewriter bring those emotions to life for us. Honestly i didn't expect much from the main cast since it was my first time watching them, except Im Soo Jung. But i gotta say, i underestimated them. From the comedy scenes to the stressful plot twists, the romantic dokey dokey moments to the heart wrenching tragic scenes. The acting made me go "someone give them an oscar pls" everytime.
Music
Good music is something that stays with you. And every OST of Chicago typewriter is definitely here to stay a long time. The music itself will bring you to tears and honestly that's all i can say right now.
Overall
This is a drama i would absolutely recommend. Get your tissues and heart ready beforehand though. All 16 episodes do justice to the drama. Every episode leaves you wanting more. The ending was actually beautifully written, which i'm glad about since alot of dramas ruin the whole thing with rushed endings or nonsense ideas. Chicago typewriter leaves you with feelings of sadness but at the same time mesmerized. It definitely does well portraying both the past and the present. A dual era tale of love and friendship overcoming the very concept of space and time.
10/10
