49 Days is a very philosophical drama that made me think of the way I live my own life and how other may think of me. It made me think of how I show the people around me that I care and love them. I've learned that its important to show that you care if you do because you never know when its to late.
I recommend this drama to those that like thinking while watching a drama since this drama isn't lighthearted.
If you want to watch a tearjerker then this is the drama to watch.
I wouldn't recommend to watch this drama for the comedy even if there was a lot of funny moments since its not the main focus and can deceive you.

What I liked the most in this season was Kim Yoo jung she is really cute and fierce in this season.
The actors were okay however the characters in the drama are very 1 dimensional and there is no real twist to them at all.
the story didn't bring anything new and was very cliche. The story didn't have any big twist either just went in a straight line from beginning to the end.
Despite being a 12 episode drama in which every episode are like 10 minutes long I felt like skipping through the drama to just finish the drama and be over with it.
I would not recommend this drama to be very honest.

The comedy was great but I wished we had gotten to know Youngjae and Kang Kyung Joon a bit more before the body change It had made it easier to relate to the drama and the characters. but since almost everything happening in the first episode there was no time for that. which resulted in the later half of the drama feel slow and confusing. It made me think that they didn't really plan the drama well enough. after the 12th episode there wasn't a lot more to ad onto the drama plot wise so they dragged the melodrama out until the last 20 minutes of the final episode.
I do honestly like the characters and the acting was great but the story was handled badly and a complected plot met an easy ending.
I would watch the first two episodes again but not further.
If you want to see a drama without getting the feeling of disappointment I do not recommend this drama, watch on your own risk.

Some scenes needs trigger warning since the drama is also trying to show light to suicide and self harm. Despite this the overall atmosphere in the drama is bright and there is also a lot of comedy.
I loved the cast they executed the drama well my favorite is Jisoo his character really tugged at my heart strings.
I have already re watched this drama more then two times from start to finish and I'm not sick of it yet.
I have one compliant over this drama and that is the cheesy lines in the drama that kind of destroyed the feeling in a few scenes.

As many knows they also try to tackle gay relationships from theirs and those around them point of view.
Since the drama is only 12 episodes and try to handle so many issues it will mostly just be fast deep in a few issues and then a new one will begin. no couple is a like. And for a K-Drama I think the characters personality was very thought through since there was no sudden changes or writers changing the personalty depending on the situation, which I'm used to in Korean dramas.
I loved the acting everyone seemed so natural in their role, especially the older couple.
Sure the exaggeration could be a bit much at times, I still love this drama and would like to rewatch it with a glass of Soju.
Hope the review was some what helpful and that you'll start watching The Lover.
