That conversation with her father, had me in tears, I'm my father's only child, I would like to help my parents and give to them many things, but still I can't, it's so frustrating. But I'm happy they support me every time~
I’m sure many people, girls or boys are going through the same thing as the leading actress. I hope you find your right path , achieve your dreams , be successful and make your parents proud . I really hope so . ❤️
Beautiful story. Really love it. Esp the last bit.. of when he understands her silence.. awwww this happens only in movies rt. Why is "true love happens only in fairy tales and in movies".. why is it so difficult to find it in real life no matter how truthful I stay. 😭
Loved it...these Korean dramas has always helped a loner like me actually enjoy the feeling of love..tragedy... happiness...but something like this shud have happened in actual life as well😭
this is one of my favourite movies I laughed, cried, felt butterflies, love the plot and the personalities of the roles. I’ll definitely recommend this to my friends hehe
I can relate to her😣i can't sleep at night, i dont have a job and im an adult already feeling like a burden to my mom. its hard to face failures while really trying to do your best😔 but im glad that her dad understands her though. Btw, She looks like song hye kyo 😍
I am in similar place too. I understand. Work eat once a day with no appetite li down but no sleep again work.... Goes on n on.. but have to do all these with a smile.. that's the hardest part.
When u have lost everything in ur life(ur dreams) and ur a failure and u watch this movie recognizing ur not the only failure and u feel happy. That's me.
"If there is a minute in your heart, I would like to borrow it..." Sentence that came to me, while watching this movie. Pure pleasure even without ton of action ^^
everyone talks that its relatable to their life so i ignored and smiled at it ,but after completing the movie i think i watched myself in the mirror which i saw it every night while sleeping and hugging my pillow on bed
Short yet beautiful story with deep meaning. Can we have these two for drama? Love their chemistry here. Can't believe Im Ji-Kyu already has a son in real life. LOL.
Plot: Young-Jae (Im Ji-Kyu) is an aspiring webtoon writer. He works part-time at a convenience store during the day. Young-Jae has been unable to sleep for 1 year. Yoo-Jung (Im Se-Mi) is unemployed. She has been unable to sleep for 2 years. Young-Jae and Yoo-Jung live in the same neighborhood and they happen to meet. Due to their insomnia, they have similar routines and meet often. They become attracted to each other.
korabee Jikyu's character Youngjae drew much similarities to his character Hyungsik in the Shining Eunsoo in that they were both aspiring webtoon writers. ^^
Im Se Mi, totally underrated gem as an actress, her skills, her understated sexiness, adorable, beautiful, breathtaking even. I just wish I could see more of her work. Too few roles, but maybe she is choosy, which isn't a bad thing... Nice, cheeky story, too.
"Why can't my life could be like this?" That's what I'm always thinking everytime I'm watching kdramas😭😭 OMGGGGG....😃😍😍 i love this👏❤ i love this drama so much❤❤❤❤❤❤ KBS PLEASE MAKE MORE DRAMA LIKE THIS❤❤❤
The Title of Original Soundtrack is "TODAY" by O. WHEN that played in the last part of this KBS2 Drama Special: "THE REASON WE CAN'T SLEEP" released last October 22, 2017.
Only ur satisfaction with ur current life can bring u to sound sleep...if u aren't recognising that ur life is the only bed u will get on earth then u can't sleep...
Ah Im Ji-gyu & Im Se-mi! Jikyu is quite the talented actor I enjoy most of his work in productions, and Semi is so quirky, but also serious nature when role calls for it... love them both. ^^
I can relate to her problem. Not realize what my dream is, until I’m turning 28 this year. Once I have it, it is really hard to get it, and the thing about not being able to give anything to my parents really make me feel sorry to them. Well except meeting a nice guy who could listen to my story and promise to going trough together, I can relate to her life. Lol.
No matter how old my daddy becomes, he will always be the first man who held me up in his arms and cuddled me as if I was the queen of the world. I love you papa. 😘😭😭😭
This movie truly relate to me I have nothing in life, nothing had worked out for me no job, no nice and truly man no happiness I'm the burden in my family
28:00 omg I want a dad 😳😳 like that . Since childhood , i lost my dad , i wish he was there with me . He even accepted the relationship of his daughter and told her to have fun
That's my situation for now...i can relate with the female lead feeling. I watch this after get phone call from my dad,i leaved home month ago to pursue my career....
and yes, i am watching the drama after months of procrastinating, anxious, sad, and a terror day. i can sleep now, when ı could not sleep, it was tougher to watch, i did not want to see myself on the screen or smt. like that, whatever. i do not know what i want in life, i was saying not trash but a plastic packet for myself actually.
I like the characters in the the story.the girl is stil following her dream.at the moment I am going through a turmoil of following my dream . I also feel like my parents are ashamed of me and my friends are already ahead of me.its not easy .....i will not give up !!!
R.a Star I know how it feels too. i've been there too but once you've started something everything will just be fine. Don't dwell to much on your current thoughts. So, that's right, don't quit! 😄
I know the feeling~ I'm at the same place as you. But you're probably already more ahead than me, since you have a dream! I've been doing nothing all year~ I'm sure you can't be worst than me lol Fighting!! You can do it~ everything comes into place when you start doing what you wish! You're doing well~❤
OMG I feel that I'm not alone by reading your comment. I can related so much with the girl in the story because I also still trying to find a decent job although it's already 2 years since I graduated from university. I also have hard time to sleep and even back then I had a trauma on meeting people so going outside was like a nightmare for me. I feel ashamed and hopeless. I'm so scared to sending any applications for job vacancies again after I faced so many failures. I always wondering what my fate is, what should I do, where should I start. I graduated as bachelor of engineering from a very well-known university with a good GPA but I keep on failing to get a stable job. Life is hard 😅
I love this drama so much, it's so relatable but I really hope that they at least show us a scene where they finally reach their dreams after believing. But anyways, I really love this one 💯
In time You're Life can be way better than this. Life is a Goal, set Goals and work towards them one by one. In no time You will have something to offer and Life will be much better.

I owe the writer, actors, staffs, director and all. This drama is so good. I cried twice... Simple problem become a great drama
True. There's nothing special about their problem but eventually it became a great drama. Oh korean writers....😁 i raise my glass to y'all.
Hats off to them for giving us such a good drama
"If there is a minute in your heart, I would like to borrow it..."
Sentence that came to me, while watching this movie. Pure pleasure even without ton of action ^^
At first I was just curious but an hour later I'm like "I wish these was a series" . I enjoyed this and the leads
everyone talks that its relatable to their life so i ignored and smiled at it ,but after completing the movie i think i watched myself in the mirror which i saw it every night while sleeping and hugging my pillow on bed
Short yet beautiful story with deep meaning. Can we have these two for drama? Love their chemistry here.
Can't believe Im Ji-Kyu already has a son in real life. LOL.
Indah Puspitasari such a cute baby too. Btw, he's 39 yrs old, i cant believe it😰
really ??!
the mbc documentary,his wife is pretty tho
The couples chemistry is very realistic! Love it!
What a perfect gift on birthday... The drama release day got me happy and the storyline was motivating
the story is so relatable in so many ways 😭
Plot: Young-Jae (Im Ji-Kyu) is an aspiring webtoon writer. He works part-time at a convenience store during the day. Young-Jae has been unable to sleep for 1 year. Yoo-Jung (Im Se-Mi) is unemployed.

If you are going to copy the plot from AsianWiki you should attribute the source: asianwiki.com/KBS_Drama_Special:_The_Reason_We_Can%27t_Sleep
munki2006 it's not like I'm making any profit off it, I really just wanted to post it because usually KBS does it but they didn't this time 😛
korabee thanks, I usually look at the plot in the Description to see if I should watch it, but this time, kbs did not do it.
Thanks because kbs didn't added description
Im Se Mi, totally underrated gem as an actress, her skills, her understated sexiness, adorable, beautiful, breathtaking even. I just wish I could see more of her work. Too few roles, but maybe she is choosy, which isn't a bad thing... Nice, cheeky story, too.
Such a good story! Great chemistry between the leads. Dear KBS special drama lovers, should watch this movie! 😁
"Why can't my life could be like this?" That's what I'm always thinking everytime I'm watching kdramas😭😭

can we take a moment to appreciate the dad doe? hands-down the most heartfelt lines from the papa
"Protect your dream ..that way you protect my heart"..something like that
I agree totally
I can feel her pain. It's so relatable, because these days, I feel like a straw too.
The female lead has amazing natural beauty ♥️
This definitely needs a part two
Such an awesome father she have
Why I do find Im Se-mi so pretty?.... beside her good acting....
This drama is so relatable to me. But i think the title of my life is not "The reason we can't sleep". Instead mine is "The reason we Overslept." 😂
Muhamad Zharif 😂😂😂
I laughed like crazy after reading you comment, because it is so true...😂
Anak Kost 😅😅
Muhamad Zharif 😂😂😂
