A literal life-changing series aka bringing me closer to God ⛪
Yeah, the headline isn't a joke; Ticket to Heaven actually drew me back to Christianity, to my roots. I've been dealing with unfaithfulness for almost 2 years now after losing multiple people in a row. I found comfort in this show that I've never found in any other.Not necessarily because of the story, but because of the way I saw myself in Barth. Like, a lot of times. When he said, „I guess God was busy", I felt that deep in my heart. I've never been understood like this by any show. I cried a lot of times, and day by day while I was waiting for this series, I felt a knot keep untying itself. Such a relief. Maybe these sound like huge words from a usual BL series watcher, however, this is the truth. Not to mention, when Barth started to pray to God and Tanrak saw him, I felt seen because I always pray for my family and friends in need, even though I thought my God wasn't like theirs.
Beside this, the actors are fantastic. I'd even say they are professionals, so impressive! They could portray so many deep feelings in a way that sometimes I felt like I was watching someone's life through a live camera.
The story itself was also written amazingly. It was so interesting the whole time, I couldn't stop watching it! I felt a relief when I realized that it's not the usual fluffy one where the main characters just start to love each other over time, but the one where they have to fight for their love, sometimes inside and outside as well.
Ohh, I also realized that the songs in the series were sung by the main actors! Woah! So a 10 goes to the music as well!
I could literally yap about Ticket to Heaven for hours. I feel so lucky I found this. Who would have thought after this I would feel like maybe God never left me alone.
I don't know who is gonna read all of this, but all I can say is you should watch it. Maybe this review came out as a bit too emotional but I just wanted to let you know how I really feel about it ❤️. Also, this was my first review ever haha. Anyways, this series is a must-watch! And you never know which part of your life it's gonna help.
Overall: 1000000/10

Phenomenal acting skills, good chemistry, interesting story, worth to watch
The prosecutor's proposal is like a good coffee on a rainy day in Korea. It is definitely something you have to watch during the holidays, once you start it, you just keep wanting more & more...The actors were chosen perfectly, I honestly can't imagine anyone else for these roles. The chemistry is really good. I even thought while I was watching the 6th episode, if they had the main roles in a few series I found poor, I'd have liked that specific series (side note: Kim Yoon-Sik is so insanely handsome and you'll see 😌). Oh, and I also like the character development!!
And not to mention, THE EFFORT THEY PUT INTO ALL OF THIS. Like that's genuinely mind-blowing (for instance: search Studio Oak on Youtube).
The story is also well-written, it creates a detective atmosphere and you feel like you're suddenly in a Columbo episode hahaha.
All I can say is even though I rarely rewatch series I've already watched once, I'll definitely rewatch this one ❤️. Give it a shot!
