'While You Were Sleeping' very good, easy drama to watch. The inital premise of 3/4 of the main characters being able to see into the future, saving each other from their doom, could've got tiresome but the sub plots allowed for an engaging viewing that showcased everyone's characters in an interesting light. Jae Chan is smart, clever and handsome but he is flawed in his job and I love how the series focuses on that. He is the least competent of his co-workers and is very slow at doing his job. Sometimes that helps with the cases we seen but it's always mentioned in a badway when talking about other cases that aren't on show. That gave him a good hook. He wasn't perfect. Same with Hong Ju. She is great at her job and smart but she is a clutz and so weird. They were great as a couple that cared for each other as well. Han Woo Tak has small hints of a crush on Hong Ju but he seens how great they are together and let's it simmer. That's who Woo Tak was. A loyal man with a strong sense of justice. Lee Sang Yeob as Lee Yu Beom was the best character of the lot. Total A-hole and dislikable even in his nicest moments. The side characters were all a laugh and were more significant than you'd initally think. Can't go wrong with this.
