Despite the recent proliferation of webtoon adaptations infesting the airwaves – and I use the pejorative because when 미생 (Misaeng) is the best you can get in 18 months, you know we're not dealing with a quality-friendly trend – few people have thought of the closest expedient the drama canon can use to ensure a somewhat painless transition from the webtoon world – the omnibus drama! Be it sketch comedy, puppy love melodrama or even fusion horror, webtoons are often ill-suited for a drama transposition exactly because they weren't made for this longer running, more story-driven medium in the first place. Taking various stories and serving them in small, 20 minute long doses every week is not such a bad idea, especially when they're not monuments to complexity to begin with, and they would falter quickly.

When Solo's mother passed away, she took with her his smile. Nothing could fill this missing hole in him... that is — until one day when he sees a smiling boy working at a cafe.
