This should’ve been just a shorty short and fun drama that I picked up to watch whenever I had a few minutes to spare… Instead, I ended up bawling like a big baby, really.

The premise sounded fun: a rather incompetent grim reaper girl decides to save an idol from dying and much kerfuffle follows. And the drama really is downright hilarious - but! It also deals with death, how one approaches it and deals with it, with the sudden kind but also with the kind that’s years in the making and you need to learn to live with it. And when it comes, you have to go without regrets. That I did not expect from this series, to be punched in the heart so thoroughly.

I also loved how intriguing the relationships were, how all the characters were connected one way or another, through friendship or death - or both. For a web drama this was so well done and plotted! Actually, not just for a web drama, this is simply a really good series, period, and well worth watching!

So, if you have barely 3.5 hours of spare time - it’s just 21 10 min. long eps or 6 30+ min. long, depends on where you actually watch it - give it a try. It’ll definitely stay with me for a very, very long time.
