TLDR

USA, I’m so sorry that you received this dose of comfort nearly two months after the rest of the world.

What it's about

After crossing paths in Jeju Island, aspiring actress Jeong Mo-eun meets deaf artist Cha Jin-woo, shifting their perceptions about communication, relationships, and love.

The take

Romantic relationships can come and go, but sometimes, one partner comes along and irrevocably changes your life forever. Tell Me That You Love Me depicts one such relationship. The Korean adaptation of the trailblazing Japanese deaf romance drama has plenty of the same charms, though this rendition makes certain changes that better reflects this current time period without sacrificing the cathartic portrayal about Mo-eun’s and Jin-woo’s flaws, and the genuine difficulties a relationship like this could have. While the show’s second half falters in certain moments, Tell Me That You Love Me mostly sticks the landing in creating a healing depiction of a deaf romance.

What stands out

Some viewers familiar with Aishiteiru to Itte Kure might be wary to start the show knowing how the original ended. Tell Me That You Love Me does have a better ending, but that’s all we’ll say to avoid spoilers for both shows.
