Amazing series, interesting ending.
First of all let me start by saying that I was waiting each week for new episodes and I don't really watch weekly shows, this show was gripping, tense and entertaining. This show answers the question to basically "If I had privilege and knew the future what would happen" in a realistic way.Its smartly written, characters are interesting and it never derailed from the main story with romance or comedy. I loved it. It handles family relationships in a great way as well, I loved the relationship between the MC and the grandfather, it was such a journey. I think it has to be one of my favourite relationships in any kdrama.
I think the chairman grandfather Jin Yang-choel (played by Lee Sung-min) carries the show, yes Song Joong-ki is amazing and the MC but every scene that Lee was in I was amazed. I hope he gets a few awards for his performance cause he's the MVP of this show for me.
Last episode is interesting, I will not spoil it but its interesting. I'd say don't read any reviews that mentions anything that happens in the last episode, just skip it.
I'd recommend this series to easily anyone who enjoys serious shows.

Feels like a missed opportunity, but there's magic!
The show was definitely interesting but I feel like they just didnt commit enough. Not to the mystery, magic, romance or to the music. (The actress' wig was annoying me throughout to the point that it was too distracting as well.) But it's a cute short watch, last episode being the best one in my opinion but it does feel quite unfinished with the story, we don't get to see where main two characters end up. If they would cut out the fluff, which is most of the episodes 3-4-5 it would've worked great as a movie I think, but somehow they managed to create a show which feels too long and too empty and unresolved at the same time. But it's definitely enjoyable and I appreciate the magical element and the message behind the show! Always believe in magic guys.Was this review helpful to you?
Episode 6 will forever live in my heart
This show is hard to watch in a good way. It's one of the most touching shows I've seen and it's very heartfelt.The premise is quite simple, the team of grim reapers try to dissuade people from commiting suicide in order for them to live their predetermined life spans while investigating why this person would want to their their own life.
It touches a lot of sensitive social topics so I'd caution any person who's sensitive to these subjects.
Episode 6 was my highlight, I cried all the way though maybe because I'm sensitive when it comes to old people and veterans but oh god, it was wonderful.
I loved it, I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for a meaningful, fun, tearjerker TV show.

Interesting Romcom with Great Acting <3
I didn't expect much from this but I ended up absolutely loving it ! If you're a romcom fan you'll love it for sure. Male MC is just the most charismatic male lead, his smile is ~~~ so cute, and Female MC is also super cute but we know that from Reply anyways. Supporting characters are also really interesting, I usually want to skip the supporting plots but I was very interested in their stories also. It definitely won't bore you, perfect for binge watching, it'll make you smile, cry and move your heart. If you're looking for a moving , sincere romcom definitely watch it , it even has magic. I have zero critisisms maybe but too much flashbacks but that's fine. I love it <3Was this review helpful to you?
Such a cute heartwarming romcom
This show took me a few episodes to really get into, first and second halves have drastically different vibes but I thought the script is original, fun and engaging throughout. I couldn't wait to watch the next episode.I'm not the biggest fan of the casting for Ghost, and FL is playing this hard to watch weak character that makes it so hard to like her. But that's the point.
But I loved it, I think it's my favourite romcom so far.
I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for a fun, emotional, engaging romantic drama to watch.

It's a dating show, but it moved my heart
I don't really watch dating shows, and the ones I watched in rare occasions are all American/British with a lot of advancements, drama, tense music and extreme emotions.This show in my opinion felt so genuine and vulnerable. It didn't have over the top drama or "playing the game". These people came to find someone they liked and they stayed true to their emotions. I think it's the best dating show I've ever seen.
The cast is adorable, I got invested in all of them and they all have charming qualities. Props to the casting department. I still can't get over Nadine and Dong-Woo's occupations like, so good looking and so successful. Wow.
Super cute, really nice, it's fresh to see a dating show that's not ALL about hotness and bikinis and whatever.

Gripping thriller and a family drama
For me this show is two parts, first 12 episodes and then the rest. I thought the first 12 were amazing, attention grapping and full of twists and turns but then the show goes into the conclusion parts and ends up dragging along, especially for binge-watchers like me cause of the flashbacks and repetition. But good news is that it doesn't take away from the show that much. If you like murder mystery/thriller shows this is a 100% must watch with amazing casting and great chemistry between the characters, and the amount of times it pulled a SURPRISE PLOT TWIST was peak K-Drama standards. I really liked it, now I must make some egg tarts and hope my childs ends up like Eun Ha.Was this review helpful to you?
