This story is gut-wrenching in the most beautiful and sincerest way possible. I experienced every emotion within this show: happiness, anger, tears, confusion, worry, heartbreak, gratitude, and even more.Each actor seemed to go through a soul searching moment within each episode not only as the character they were cast for, but as themselves; it was wonderful to see each person delve deep within themselves, their surroundings, their family, their mental and emotional self, their friends, and their humanity to see them come out the other side as a new person. Some parts of it did seem a little "scripted", no pun intended and I know they were originally following a script because this is television, but...! As I watched this story play out, I realized it really could have been made as a movie but the separation between each "main character" is there for you to gather your thoughts and feelings from the previous person's story as a whole. If you just watched this story play out as a movie, I do not think the same feelings or final product would be what it is now.
It is a "human" drama. You won't get anything cheesy or too "lovey-dovey" or something filled with stupid action and dramatics. This story is about overcoming humanity's worst issues: death and the dying, whether they are alone or surrounded by loved ones; in a hospital or home alone. This show is something not to be missed, it is a genuine pleasure to watch life play out and to feel each emotion as it was meant to be: raw, painful, heartbreaking, and crushing. This is a story of humanity; all alone, but still together.

..SILENT ANGEL..
..where the requester have their final time in silent...
..an ex-police turns to detective *slash* caregiver-wannabe (can't think the right term) with his partner and a nurse assistant..
.
..overall, this is less action compare to other detective/mystery genre - this is more on drama, slice of life, sort of..
.
..here, the requester (mostly old people and patient) will grant their wish come true - place want to visit, thing want to do, and yeah even the fave song want to sing - the genre include in this drama is "musical one" but don't expect on the entire episode, but just on the last minute before the episode ends..
.
..this is kinda short, with a little twist on the casts but just enough and feel satisfied until the last episodes..
.
..the casts to me are too familiar and I love the line up that's why I watch it..
.
..in the end, it also teaches us to give value the life of our loved ones especially the elderly - that just like a leaf on a tree gets old and fall on the ground..
.
..this series is so unique - impressive casts and staffs..
