Synopsis
“The Atypical Family” is a fantasy romance drama about a family that once had supernatural powers, but lost them after suffering from realistic modern-day problems.
Jang Ki Yong plays the “depressed time traveler” Bok Gwi Joo, who was once a firefighter with positive energy and a strong sense of calling. Bok Gwi Joo is able to travel back in time, but only to happy times in his life. He can't change the past, so he can only dwell on those happy moments. Bok Gwi Joo becomes afflicted with depression, and this leads him to lose his supernatural power.
His family also loses their own powers due to modern-day problems like insomnia, bulimia, and smartphone addiction.
Chun Woo Hee stars as Do Da Hae, a mysterious woman who appears in front of Bok Gwi Joo’s family. She begins to live with them, and change occurs.
