Mr. Plankton (Season 1)

Mr. Plankton (2024) is a Korean dramedy from Netflix that you can watch online on iFILM. It's a road story about a man who has been out of luck since the day he was born.

Hae-jo learns his time is nearly up and decides to spend what's left on one final trip. His reluctant companion ends up being his ex, Jo Jae-mi — the unluckiest bride-to-be around, who bolts almost from the altar. The two bicker, then cling to each other, crisscrossing the country and untangling everything that once pulled them together and then apart. Here the laughs walk hand in hand with the ache.

Woo Do-hwan and Lee Yoo-mi, familiar to viewers from Squid Game, take the lead. Director Hong Jong-chan holds a tricky balance between goofy comedy and quiet sorrow without tipping into a pure tearjerker. Six episodes for anyone who loves Korean stories about flawed people and a second shot at saying goodbye. Stream Mr. Plankton (2024) online on iFILM.
