Synopsis
A weary middle-aged engineer and a stoic, troubled young woman quietly save each other from despair.
What makes My Mister worth watching
A masterpiece of restrained, humane storytelling.
My Mister represents a strong example of south korea drama from the 2018 production cycle. Korean studios have spent the past decade refining the kind of long-form storytelling on display here — careful character work, restrained pacing in the early episodes, and a willingness to let emotional beats land without overstatement. The blend of Drama and Slice of Life elements gives the show its tonal signature, sitting somewhere between mainstream comfort viewing and prestige drama.
The cast is led by Lee Sun-kyun, IU, Park Ho-san, with strong supporting work from Song Sae-byuk. It originally aired on tvN, and has since travelled internationally through the streaming partnerships listed above.
