Depends on what you consider a happy ending. I can't really tell you without giving a couple spoilers, so read below at your own risk haha for me the ending was Bittersweet, with the final say being one of those happy cries.
**SPOILERS**
After all is said and done, he says his own name three times infront of her and disappears. From what they hinted at, if a grim reaper breaks the rules, which is what he did (they'll explain why), they vanish and cease to exist. Not sure what they were exactly going for, seems like a partially unexplained part of the Manhwa. Regardless, he has to leave her in the end as a grim reaper. That's the bittersweet part, but she decides to live on while honoring his memory, which is heartwarming. They resolve and develop everything really really well too throughout, where you really feel the regret and sadness from every character. The whole story is surprisingly an emotional rollercoaster for only 6 episodes.
So while it's quite sad and depressing at times, the final seemingly sadness of the whole drama is also happy, comforting and every other emotion mixed in
Hopefully this answers your question! If you decide to try it, it's a wonderful hidden gem! Hope you like it.
In other words: We'll give the people a little hint of what they're wanting to hear, but there's no deep romantic…
We'll have to see if they actually do choose to put a love line in it. It's a bit late in the Season if they do try though. I think Lee Je-hoon works well with friendly chemistry, but I can't see a full romance blossoming between them.
I think it's mainly promotional-wise as to why they say stuff like that. Most viewers won't watch a pure thriller unfortunately if there isn't a hint of romance or a teasing of it.
I'd have to find and read the Webtoon to possibly know where they're going with it, I know there's a main female but unsure if anything happens between them.
For those viewers wondering about possible Do-gi and Go-eun pairing, here's the answer from a recent promo video,…
In other words: We'll give the people a little hint of what they're wanting to hear, but there's no deep romantic stuff going on, nor will it be in the show more than likely.
It's kind of funny, they have to be vague and skirt the line so they don't make people mad.
We don't need romance in Taxi Driver, everyone's bond is perfect as is to me personally!
Well everywhere else's synopsis is about an outbreak, to the likeness of zombies, or at least a thriller to some degree. The one on here is different from basically other platforms description, so maybe I expected the wrong thing. Regardless if it's actually a zombie show or not, it's one of the most boring things I've seen in a long time, which is my opinion. That's fine if it isn't the target plot I thought, but the cameraing is poor and the overall vibe wasn't for me.
And that, is what in the world I was going on about.
This is how you do Melodrama. Not usually my genre in many aspects, but this was a masterpiece of a mini series. Amazing how much they packed into 6 short episodes. Soundtrack was 100% too, couldn't ask for more, fit the situations perfectly. The songs will be making It to my playlist. Makes me want to read the Manhwa it was based off of.
I like the original title in Korean better haha "A Week Before I Die"
Criminally underrated, truly. Kim Min-ha and Gong Myung did extremely well with their characters, actually wasn't expecting them to go that hard. No feeling of acting, feels real and raw with the emotions.
So I recommended the show to someone else and they just said in season 2 he also buried someone, and at a landfill (I didn't remember this), so maybe they actually do "inadvertently" kill people lol kinda seems like it.
It's all 10/10 until the end episode. I was seriously too ticked off that I avoided this drama for the longest time, months, even though I loved the journey. I finished this a while ago and have found the courage to rewatch since, but man. Sung-Hoon got the extreme short end of the stick and every single other child who was put in danger by those adults who didn't take care of them and abused them. Sung-Joon became a complete jerk at the end too, same as Eun-Ki. I couldn't believe the crap they were spitting at him while in prison when previously they were preaching to help others. I guess if you're an adult you're not worth saving or helping, only "innocent" children.
Every single person in this drama failed those children, as kids AND as adults who were crying out for help, regardless if what they were doing was wrong. Yoon jae was more of a real psychopath, but everyone else was absolutely destroyed from the get go, you can't blame them. The scene where he tries to kill himself in prison made me more angry than any other attempt in a drama, because even after the show ends you know that's what will happen to him. Nobody cares to get him through anything that's going on or get him some psychological help for goodness sake.
Garbage agenda which screwed up an otherwise stellar series.
Is there anything similar in plot to this but without any Romance? really don't enjoy romantic Kdramas but I want that getting sucked into a Webtoon vibe lol
So it was their first time killing someone, right?
I thought that too. I've never actually seen them kill anyone. They usually will either beat the pulp out of them and then leave, or break down whatever organization they're running and leave them penniless and out of order. Really surprised he buried that guy lol
That was a dang good episode and closure for that case. Feel bad for Park Min-ho, he was barely involved in what was going on, just happened to overhear the wrong thing.
I don't know what to think guys, so help me out here. I tried and got about 20 minutes into the first episode but the camera has a light hue over it, you know that white or bright haze? and the humor has that certain obnoxious style where they think they're being funny but it's actually just annoying haha
One of the most hilarious things I've watched in a long long time. I was wheezing several times throughout, there's never a dull moment with all these absurdly hysterical misunderstandings.
Simply a gem among Kdramas, even a contender against full length dramas. I'd watch this again in a heartbeat! Don't know how I stumbled across this because it's never recommended often.

I'll try and make it through the whole episode of this and see how it goes!
Does it get any better?
