Guys! I just wasted one whole night!

Come on! Nana and min-ki did soo good that I reconsidered dropping it, but this is the shittiest shitty script, and plot I ever saw. Sorry, I might sound harsh but I really wanna thank Jo Jin Kuk for destroying my time. Though it's totally my fault to waste my time, to begin with, I really hoped it ended otherwise. The fantasy and appearance of the man in the white dress, that is our han bi-soo's father really ruined it.
I would've loved it if the drama ended with the truck accident!
It's my first review but not the 1st drama. Well, I've watched over 150 dramas but this is my 1st time reviewing because I suck at that plus I'm really busy with studies!
I don't wanna relate but to be honest, my mister was so freaking good that I had a really hard time watching drama after that because I simply couldn't enjoy the script . Anyways, kill it was good despite the ending but for this one, I am sorry it felt like a straight-out waste of my time.
But I would suggest my fellow k-drama watchers to watch it, the sole rating I am giving it is for acting. Nana and Lee min-ki tried their best!
Anyways, I was so disappointed that it made me leave a review!

Shameless

This is a classic example of what I like to call a waste of carbon emission. It's impressive how a drama can fail on every metric there is and still get to finish its full run. It's fundamentally dysfunctional even if we were to disregard the epilogue. Yikes! On another note, Nana needs to figure out how to turn on her facial muscles appropriately with the scene.

Dont waste your time . The writer tried to use every method he knew to make it perfect but he actually made it trrible . Waste of actors . Their acting was good enough but their characters was so bad which is hard for viewers to like them. Its so damn boring too. I fast forward everything but still it was hard to watch. Unlike other kdrama it doesnt have great music either. I wonder why actors accepted to be part of this because they all had very better works before this .its basically waste of actors and viewers times

the drama deserved to be happy

I am very disappointed by the ending as I was not expecting sad ending for such beautiful , comedy drama, From ep 1 to last one , all scenes had some type of comedy that made me give this drama's story 9. Acting was good. but the major dissatisfaction was from the ending . If they wanted unhappy ending that could have been in some other way idk why the ml gets hit by the truck in the first scene that's makes the drama little meaningless . Overall a nice drama .

Plot Fails Nana and Minki Pairing

I really wanted to like this series. This is the first time I have seen Nana and Minki, who are both beautiful/handsome and very good actors. BUT-The plot was so repetitive (he rejects her, then turns around so many times), with too many subplots ( too many unnecessary romantic pairings). Some of the things he says were so cruel that it seemed past redemption and sympathy. The fantasy should have been better focused and had have been better developed or just eliminated. Oh well. Wonderful acting by the actresses playing the leads’ mothers, Kim Ho Jung and Lee Hwi Hyang.

i think i just wasted my time. at first i just watch thinking it would be rom-com. well it did, in the first half. but idk no chemistry? feels rushed? strange love triangle? cringe 2nd and 3rd couples? it was super cliche at first. honestly i dont mind cliche, as long as it was executed nicely and beautifully to draw me in. but sadly this drama dont. and the next half? it's like the writer trying to put together whatever sad and heartbreaking scenes there is. i skipped a lot cause it was so hard for me to focus ;')) basically, the script, was terrible. i just cant enjoy it sadly. but their acting was great anyways.

Frustrating second half

I really like Lee Min Ki's performance in Because This is My First Life so I was curious to check out this drama.

What I like
1. Oh! Master was fun watch in the first half of the series. I really like the scene when he saved Jooin.
2. Bisoo & Jooin relationship development. Kissing & intimate scenes were hot
3. Heartwarming interactions between them & their mothers
4. Record store scenes - I would love to have dates in that store.
5. Dialogue about closing doors, death
6. Kang Min Hyuk's styling is impeccable. Surprised to know that he's a drummer.
7. Oh I like the score 'Running to You' so much!

What I dislike
1. Bisoo sabotaging their relationship
2. The second half of the series especially the Ending

Favourite scene
Dating in the record store

The drama is so badly written it feels like it's written by a middle schooler

The only reason I watched this drama is because of Nana and Lee Min Ki and I am looking forward to their acting and chemistry. When I first read the synopsis, I thought that it is a typical rom-com full of cliché and that should be enough to entertain me. But as I got to the fifth episode, I felt like I was watching a fairy tale written by a middle schooler by how forced the romance is between characters.

Even with all that, I had fun watching because of how beautiful Nana is, and it is also fun watching badly written drama because it funny how unbelievable the things that happen in the drama.

I don't hate typical rom-com full of cliché but at least make the story sensible. Not just trying to A and B together and call it romance.

Could have been better! Learn what Fantasy means!

First of all, car accident was the most ridiculous ever for a person like ML! He is attentive and careful of his surrounding! How could you kill him like that in fantasy story? Make it a logical death or just let him live cos this is freaking fantasy!
Fantasy stories exist for happiness and wild imagination.
Real life and tragic stories are for sadness, troubles, unexpected difficulty and hard-work.
Writing a story in fantasy theme/setting and writing sad story that isn't even logical is just wrong!
===
ML = Sadist & FL = Masochist (Literally, that's who they are in this drama!)
ML leaving FL for her sake is so cliche, old, boring and mad cos he is going to die anyway, so why not tell her the truth? And, if she left you, accept it; if not, be with her till death. Why not let her decided instead of deciding all by yourself? That would have been better plot. (Now, ML thinking best for FL from his perceptive only! This is just one-sided!)
"You think, doing everything the best for your love is more important than what your love one wants?" There is no honesty and trust! That's just one way communication and that's what most closed minded people do! - I am sorry but that's the fact!
FL is so strong minded and open minded though, as she waited so patiently for ML's reason for doing terrible things to her. (This is never gonna happen in real life. Anyone would quit that kind of sick relationship. There are freaking over 7 billions people. Everyone is special if you can look forward or look to the future instead of sticking with a person who has terrible personality! Don't stuck yourself in the past or in terrible relationship!)
===
Humor, romance, bromance and jealousy are the only things I like from this drama. EP 1-8 after leaving out s***ty car accident and fan's evil plot is great.
The rest is pretty much one-sided overwhelming love from FL. ML only accepted cos she found out the truth and her love for him is overwhelming (Which doesn't exist in real life so why sad story? Want to be realistic but with unrealistic setting and love? Okay!).
I was already able to predict that FL will accidentally see ML vanishing and that's how they are going to reconcile. (This drama could have ended with just 10 or 12 episodes. You could skip all those and ended with mishearing 49 days with 49 years! This point was unexpected though.) Finishing 'script' in 49 days is a overkill!
===
Seriously, you could have save this fantasy drama by removing unnecessary sad plots and giving happy ending. This could have been 9/10 or even 10/10 but now 6/10 cos of illogical accidents and sad plots.
FL & supporting characters' personality are awesome except for ML & 2nd ML. (When will I see a drama where 2nd ML just stop liking FL and get together with his soul mate and become friend with FL & ML again later.)
I am sorry but I can't stop myself from ranting!

Falling in love quickly, but had a bad ending

I enjoyed watching this show because of its great casting and storyline. I started watching it while it was still airing, which made me anticipate new episodes even more. However, I was disappointed with how the plot twists were handled towards the end, especially since there were already some in the beginning. The ending left me feeling unsatisfied and made me lose interest in the actors and their future projects. Despite this, I did enjoy the fact that the characters were living together, which led to some funny moments and clever dialogue from the actors. The second lead was also great, as he was more of a friend to the female lead, which made him less obsessed with her. The show's music didn't have much of an impact on me, but it was still emotional. The male and female leads acted really well and portrayed their emotions convincingly. However, the ending just ruined the entire show for me, and I doubt I'll ever want to rewatch it.

Great Story line, perfect lead actors , sad ending

Amazing lead actors but the side actors(asst writers and agency mangers) were not impressive and lack acting, worst comeey from them, i quite impressed with actress nana, Her laugh and voice really adorable, really good acting,

initial episodes were okay, middle episodes were felt like boring and the fighting for jioon by han bi soo and yuzin scenes were unnecessary and boring, it is quite predictable Jooin like Bisoo but whey she wants to date both of them, didn't liked this part,i just forwarded it while watching .

But i profoundly enjoyed the last 2 episodes, amazing from all angles , i thought there will be a tragic ending but yeah it is , then they made it somewhat better, by at the end of final episode where they showed what if Han bi soo didn't disappear and how would they lived their life with all the love, those glimpse of moments was really captivating, from that i understood there won't be next season ,as we already have seen how their life going to be.
But tragically it didn't happen, at least got some satisfaction, but a sad ending, probably many fans would have loved and myself , if he didn't disappear. But life is unfair.
i would say it's worth watching whole season just for last 2 episodes, i felt like really seen what love is. i would never forget those moments

The ending scene of the show was amazing, when Jooin reads the letter written by Han Bisoo , the way it ended really thoughtful one from writer.
The relationships between mom daughter and mom son were at different level, and the friendships between the two moms and record owner was really interesting element and rare to watch.

I really liked the background music it played a key role in the love scenes, i would give a 100% thumbs up for it , definitely will go into my playlist and this kind of music motivates to learn music.

Even though it has more drawbacks in the drama but i am still giving 8 out of 10 because the story line and the lead actors chemistry. if it had some different ending and some comedy by other actors and some changes, The story line has potential enough to became one of the top most korean Tv shows.

"I do understand the writers view, he just want to share what would you do if you have few days time on the earth and ho would you spend your time with your loved ones". The story tells you many life lessons like "Every day is the best day in life, everyday is important, Everyone should experience love in their life". Also from the mom characters you can say how memories are so important in your life and Also when like someone no matter what you should confess your feelings, who knows what could happen?

improvements:

other actors roles and conversations were boring , writer probably concreted on lead actors and their story line .
The scenes between Han bisoo and yuzin were also not enjoyable, ,
could have made these
improvements , the show would have been next level

Finally i would say , Who knows Han Bisoo might have made it back next after 1 year, he probably lived his life marrying Jioona and had an amazing life with lots of love

I DONT REALLY GET IT. ITS REALLY WONKY THE WRITERS NEED A BONKY.

This drama have a potential a the start. I thought they will look further into the acting scenes within the drama (drama within a drama) because she was an actress in the drama also they touch on the writing of scripts but doesnt really touch the essence of how to write a script which i though they would do after watching the first 2 episodes but they scrap it and go full tragic feels and home love triangle. The drama was fun at some point but kinda meeh on how they execute it. OH MY LANDLORD MORE LIKE OH MY WRITERS.
