The K-drama, My Liberation Notes had a reasonably good run. It started a little slow, with the ratings for the first couple of episodes not being too high. Later the show’s storyline intrigued the viewers, and its last episode did well with the ratings and reviews. Well, a sweet plot will find its audience. This slice of life drama ultimately managed to make everyone feel something.

It tells the story of three siblings who live in a rather sad house. Their father doesn’t speak much and the mother, on the other hand, does all the talking just to avoid fights. The people in the house do not care much for each other. They are all lost and want more from life.

Kim Ji-won, Lee El, and Lee Min-Ki are the three sibling leads of the show. It is evident that they do not talk straight but care for each other a lot. We see three different routines for them, but it doesn’t feel out of place or repetitive. The conversation, the gossip, workplace camaraderie, and random discussions on random topics are something that every viewer will relate to.

My Liberation Notes reflect the concerns of the majority of individuals in today's society, including loneliness, feeling purposeless in life, workplace competition, the yearning for a friend, and other issues that are often brushed off as being too small. The show presents each character's life as something you will encounter or experience. The writing of the series is its greatest strength.
