If Only The Writers and Director Spent alittle more time working on the plot

At the end of this drama I find my initial thoughts on the ghost related plot to be messy right on point! The consistency of combining afterlife with reincarnation was nowhere to be found.. maybe because it's a flawed concept to being with, so them trying to be extra imaginative with it made fall in shambles.
An example would be when making the dead able to roam around the living in some cases ( there was no rule!) They sometimes can affect the living while others can't (depending on the plot needs) and so on.. even Fantasies need rules set in the world to make sense to the viewers.
Even the couple's drama suffered from this inconsistency that something which was strongly emphasized was never used or mentioned in the finale!
Aside from that, the drama of our hotel family and the reaper - love his character- was really good that i cried a river in the finale. Everyone had an impact which isn't always the case when we have a main couple to focus on, though our ML had weak presence compared to the other 2 second leads which iscrazy considering they aren't even in the same timeline!!!
The setting wasn't that special for me, while the MUSIC was everything! Halfway through the drama I started humming along with teary eyes everytime one of the osts starts playing.
If only the writing wasn't this sloppy, it's a tragedy considering the cast being superb actors!
To top it all the drama was 50% repetitive slowmo scenes..
I was planning to rate it an 8 but after summing up my review a solid 7.5 is all my mind could spare.
