Korean Drama "Thirty-Nine" is a drama about three friends and their year while being thirty nine, when tragedy strikes.

The viewer knows right from the start that one of the leads is going to die. A fact that makes the story even more dramatic and bittersweet, as the friends are trying to come to terms with what is about to happen. Their love stories are another part of the story, even though they were the drama's weakest point, as they were cheesy and obvious.

The drama got boring and predictable towards the ending as well. One would have anticipated that the emotional level will keep rising to hit its peak in the end, but the drama just got tiring to watch, with the ending losing its emotional impact due to that.

As for the performances, they were all great as it's expected from a star-packed cast.

So, overall, four out of ten.
