The Atypical Family premiered its first episode on May 4, 2024. This show follows a family with superpowers. However, each member lost their powers due to depression and insomnia.
This drama, aired by JTBC, marks Jang Ki Yong’s return after military service. He plays a firefighter who can time travel when happy. But an incident leaves him depressed and powerless.
