okay, so this is gonna take a while since i wanna talk about a pair of things. first of all, ngl i dont think i wasnt expecting much from this (was clearly wrong) when i started it, i dont think the first episode really got me ? i mightve watched it just because i was bored so i wasnt thinking exactly idk, im not saying it was boring (it isnt ofc) but idk, it was just there. but maybe one of the reasons couldve been the fact that it was reincarnation. i think is a very used trope in the kdrama industry that i wasnt happy about it but i gave it a chance. while watching the second episode i did end up more intrigued in everything and after episode four i kept thinking about them, my entire scomed got filled about it, something i do but not entirely PLUS ive seen the four episodes like 5 times, its also something im not used to doing.

and, speaking of which, i dont think something will top watching MRN while airing because seeing people talking about the details on twt was an amazing experience. im gonna miss it, it doesnt matter how many times i watch it, seeing it live (?) is something else.

^ i wanna praise the team's work, too. the script writers, directors etc etc, they did such a good job, the first half had this parallel with the other half, seori being dressed with a red sweater when she got hit with the doom truck just like when she got poisoned in the first episode with the hanbok and i could keep giving examples. they took care of all of these details i know no other drama had done it.

segye had his problems with his family, with being accused of things he didnt do but after meeting seori he tried to be better and it was okay if he just let out those emotions, like yelling at seori I MEAN, he was wrong when he told her he would defend her and yelled at her but he realized that and thats okay, no one's perfect, even if theyre fictional. perfect is boring. segye was realistic and i loved him for that.

seori also had these struggles and ended up learning she kind of needed to go through pain to be happier, to feel joy even tho she went through a lot in both of her lives.

its funny how MRN used a lot of clichés that are so common in kdramas (the doom truck, reincarnation and the chaebol x "poor girl") but they gave it a new pov its amazing.

something i need to complain its the amount of episodes. not only because i loved shinsegye dynamic, but because of the plot. i kept wondering what happened to segye's father. like, his mom was dead, but, what about him? no one mentioned him, i think only his grandpa at the last episode, im not sure if it was him, but it was weird idk it didnt matter obviously but they couldve explored segye's background. and, seori's coworker i dont even rememeber her name😭 but i didn't get the point of showing she was bad/mean to seori if they didnt show why was she being bad, like, what was actually the reason ? ALSO, when did jihyo become good to her, i think she just started doing it just because ? or maybe i dont remember

but yeah, anyways, this is just something tiny so i can let it pass because it kinda became one of my fav dramas lmaao
