i thought about that possibility of her wanting to be a grim reaper too. but if i understood right he broke the…
I could be wrong but I think Hui Wan's case might be a little different because her death was her choice. Not an illness or an accident. He only tried showing her the positive aspects of life and love and tried to help her make the best decision. In the end, he didn't exactly grab her to stop her from jumping. He stopped her by showing his affection. She could have jumped regardless but she chose not to do it. Now, his week with her, THAT might be a cause for punishment. Cause obviously Reapers don't just get a week to chill with their loved ones whenever they want. For my peace of mind, I just want to believe he's okay wherever he is ๐ฅบ
Whats the backstory of that senior who saved FL?? How is she able to see Grim reaper?
I don't think we ever found out the details. When Ram U realized she could see him and talked with her, he understood she'd been through a lot too and I think it was hinted she lost someone very important to her in the past too. I guess that's why he told her to take care of Hui Wan, her intervention saved her life.
But your list shows that you barely even touched the genre of sageuk ๐ The older ones had much better posters.
Alchemy of Souls (High Fantasy)
Our Blooming Youth
River Where The Moon Rises
The Secret Romantic Guesthouse
The Rebel: The Thief Who Stole The People (this one doesn't focus on the love story but I personally regard it as rhe best sageuk of all time with one the most beautiful love stories ever told)
I loved this drama even though it broke my heart and I obviously never expected a happily ever after for our couple... ๐Both leads were so amazing, I loved their characters because they felt so real and relatable. ๐ฅบIf I were her, I'd have chosen to join him in the afterlife and become a Grim Reaper by his side no matter what. But I do get why it ended the way it ended. It was appropriate and it resonated with the whole purpose of Ram U's temporary return to Hui Wan. I hope Gong Myung and Kim Min Ha reunite again in a future projects! They had great chemistry ๐คโจ
LOL, the bitter trolls in the comments. ๐Y'all got to work to get the rating from 8.3 to 8, huh?? Must have bothered you sooo much that "Buried Hearts" is the most viewed mini series of 2025!!!๐ Deal with it, the only thing that matters is the Korean viewership for dramas broadcasted on TV and "Buried Hearts" got to the Top and never left till it completed its run. Get over yourselves ๐Oh, don't forget to come back for S2!!! ๐
I'll probably disagree with a lot of people but I found the final episode absolutely fitting and amazing and I like how they're definitely hinting at a season 2. ๐ฅSBS has a habit of making second seasons lately (see "Good Partner", "Flex x Cop", "Escape of the Seven") and after the FANTASTIC viewership the drama scored every week, breaking record after record, SBS isn't going to let it go so easily. ๐Ignore the MDL rating (which is stupid anyway, this deserves AT LEAST 8.6), it doesn't reflect the Korean audience's preferences which is the only thing that matters here cause this isn't a Netflix or Disney+ original, it's first and foremost broadcasted on TV and streamed on Disney+ & Hulu in limited areas. If you came here for the romance, you were going to be disappointed from the start. This drama was never about a love story and I'm more than glad it didn't focus on that!! It was always a political thriller, with crime, corruption and power games in its core. I loved, LOVED it and I'm so sad I have to say goodbye for now.๐ I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed for a season 2, although I think I shouldn't even be worried, it's coming for sure. โ๏ธ
I'll be back with some spoiler/comments on the finale in a reply to this comment.
Can someone help me understand something?? ๐คBecause I think I've misinterpreted a couple of things. Did Hui Wan and Hong Seok become a couple after Ram U's death?? Hui Wan's college acquaintances said they frequently saw him coming to pick her up and when she and him were talking in the present, he said something like "you didn't like me, you were with me because you were missing him". And I guess they ended things in a bad way.
Pls, if you can clear this up for me, it'd be great!!! โ๏ธ
I don't wanna say goodbye to this amazing drama and Dong Ju tomorrow ๐ญ I'm gonna miss it all so much ๐ It's been my weekly obsession for 2 months now ๐ At least, I have "The Haunted Palace" starting in its spot next week to save me from the post finale blues ๐ฅบ
Episode 15 was really good. ๐คNot too much action, mostly political stuff and strategizes/alliances which are all interesting nonetheless.
I loved Dong Ju giving Yeom a taste of his own medicine ๐ Can't wait for my man to get the throne he deserves ๐ฅโจ
This time, three days from now, this wonderful drama will be over ๐ญ๐ I'M GONNA MISS IT SO MUCH!!! It's my favourite of 2025 so far and it was my weekly obsession ๐ฅบ Rewatch value is 10/10 because I'm not ready to say goodbye just yet ๐ขPark Hyung Shik's acting in this will be forever etched in my mind!!! ๐ฅEveryone was amazing but he stole the show with this completely new side of him. I can't wait for hif next two dramas ๐And please, give a huge bonus to his stylist. This is the hottest he's ever looked!!! ๐
Lee Hae Young definitely gets an honorary mention too because despite him being a villain, at least most of the time, I couldn't get enough of him. โจHe's such a good actor, he always leaves his unique mark in every drama he's a part of.
I'm rooting for our Dong Ju and his sweet revenge. ๐The ending of episode 14 was MASTERFUL ๐คโจ Can't wait to see how it will all end. Wishing for the highest ratings yet for episodes 15-16. "Buried Hearts" has been on the top since it premiered. Nothing has beaten it so far!!! ๐
You know... ๐คThe characters are interesting and so is the chemistry they have with each other, be that on a friendly or romantic level, but something is missing... ๐ Maybe the whole insurance idea is kinda boring to me, idk. I see the potential of the romance and comedy and there are moments I like but there are others I can't really be bothered to pay attention, like all the talk about the contracts etc etc.
I'll keep watching for now, hopefully they'll invest more screen time in the relationships rather than the workplace.๐ค
I completely agree with you! I am LOVING this drama, plot twist after plot twist! I'm so sad it's about to end...
Right?? There's not a single boring moment, there are twists and turns in every episode!!!๐ฅ I'm going to miss Dong Ju soooo bad ๐ญPark Hyung Shik really shined in this drama โจโบ๏ธ
