Watching this is like chess match as we saw in the opening.
So far, this is a revenge movie with subtle tactics. There're a lot of strategy materials worth anticipating in the future.The main character wants to achieve justice in a way that is full of intelligence & softeness.
Remember when he had a dialogue with the 'God of auction' (Woo Youngsoo), there Heewoo couldn't even change his temperament to become a brutal figure.
This will be a bright and joyful revenge series.
The main character will undergo redemption in his second life and bring about justice that he could not achieve in his first life.
The stories about social absurdities deserve to be enjoyed because our lives are very close to this phenomenon.
I like how the novel/webtoon is adapted with new material that is almost close to reality.
I like to see how this drama is made by modifying the plot so that it follows social, political, & technological developments.
very interesting to see this premise. I will sit and wait like watching a chess match.

Very good from what I have seen so far
The drama was very good so far, engaging and entertaining (particularly the fight scenes). A very good adaptation from the webtoon (I didn't read the book). Every time a new episodes comes out I am ready to watch, and it's the first time I actually re-watched some episodes. I found it healing after the heartbreak of watching some characters start out strong and then abandon all self respect. I like the fact that the protagonist starts as an underdog, but step by step improves himself and work towards his goal, as well as the fact that he has people around him helping him out, so he is not a loner. The interactions with his friends and the school/university bits were my favorite parts (kind of a "limbo" that was not "too serious" were we could relax.Was this review helpful to you?
Lee Joon Gi doing what he does best
Since this show stars Lee Joon Gi, I just had to watch it. I've loved him ever since Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo and has subsequently seen him in other dramas. In this show he does what he does best: action and drama. He does not disappoint here.This was a very interesting story and the plot kept me at the edge of my seat with every move and countermove by LJG's character and the villain.
LJG's films and series do not usually include much romance so don't expect much here. Just watch it for his martial arts and dramatic scenes.
All the actors performed well. I would rewatch this show and recommend it to others.

I dont get the point
Nice cast, i love all those beauty actress. Jo Tae Soeb is the best role in this drama.I dont get the point to against him. He want power, glory, money, all of them, but overall he want to be president, to make Korean great, anyone would want to be like him if they can & no one sure they will want to make Korean great like him.
He always keep his promise, he will protect anyone on his side, especially his secretary Kim Jin Woo (he cried when Kim Jin Woo died).
If someone say he will kill anyone that against him, i think he is right, kill or be kill, that is what a politician must know and that is how this world work.
The reason Han Ji Hyun against Jo Tae Soeb is a joke, because Kim Jin Woo do something bad to many childs include her brother and Jo Tae Soeb slap Jin Woo for that, Jo Tae Soeb doest not want bad thing happen.

No Major Role for Kim Hee Woo , she appears in one episode Then Disappear, then again appear...
This isn't satisfied for my thoughts what I had before start watching this, But it's somehow Not bad at all. Main problem is this drama mainly focused on Kim Hee Woo , you can't say it's also focusing on Cho Tae Seob cause he is like the villain here but no, It's completely focusing on Kim Hee Woo.The Fun Fact is the Main Lead, Kim Hee Ah, she is like a support character here, she isn't visible in so many episodes. As well If she is there But she doesn't have much to do. No romantic relationship or no impact with story , I really felt like she is an support character.
That's the Main problem here, And it same goes for others.
But I can't say this is not worth watching or a bad drama cause I like the story but that's the problem, no major roles for Other Main leads, Specially for Kim Hee Ah character, same goes for Lee Min Soo as well.
This reason actually ate up my appetite for watching kdramas...
Really Disappointed at the END...

The best actor
Lee Joon Gi is perfectly playing the role of Hee Woo. His acting skill is giving life to a webtoon character. And the story is really interesting and keeps you curious about what happens next. You won't loose interest even for a second. Should give it a try. Moreover lee joon gi is one of the best actors. Must watch this drama to see how he's notching his role.Even when I am writing this, it feels like no word can explain how good this drama is!!
Just give it a try guys, you won't regret it. This drama is going to be a hit!!!

He is so staunch, relentless and dauntless and fearless.
Wow! The opening shows Joon His impressive martial Arts skills……but no subtitles yet. I know how Viki works. First day watch with no subtitles, next day watch again with subtitles so you get a double dose of his magic. Just awesome and amazing just to watch him at work once more. Makes me so happy. He is so staunch, relentless and dauntless and fearless. His magnificent skills are showcased in that first episode, but he is worked over first by two larger men and although he beats them he meet another larger man with even stronger skills. He almost chokes him to death but then his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu skills come to the fore when he is on the ground. His opponent is much larger and stronger than him and flips him even when LJG has dislocated his shoulder. He (the opponent) viciously beats him in the face injects him with a drug and throws him over the side of the high building that they have been fighting on. As he fall he has visions as the cityscape flashes before as he falls. He finds himself standing back on that building watching his killer smoking. He is puzzled and sees a woman in red standing beside him. Is this a reaper? She shows him his past and explains his purpose. She sends him back in time to his school days where he was working in a convenience store. He is amazed with his transformation. Memories of his parents flood his mind and how he mistreated them when his mum always left him breakfast when she went to work early in the morning. Then one day they die and he is sorry for his misconduct In his return to life he runs all the way home to find them still alive. He is so happy to be able to repent for his behaviours. They are amazed with his new actions. They think that they are dreaming. He vows to be a better son and person. Later at school he has a vision of his parents death. He knows the date of their death and wonders if he can stop it. Is he trying to stop them from going to work on that day but fails? So he hurries to meet them when he knows the time and place of the accident where they are killed. He gets there before the car comes and his parents appear. He remembers everything about his previous life. He had looked up all the details of his parents demised so knows exactly what happened. He goes to wait outside his parents work place for them. He walks home with them. He stops them from being hit……..or does he.Well that what I got from it without subtitles.

J'attendais avec impatience cette série pour le retour de Lee Joon Gi surtout depuis la claque Flower of Evil qui est toujours un de mes dramas contemporains préféré.
J'ai pu voir que les avis sont mitigés sur la série et avec le recul, il est vrai qu'elle a des défauts comme les relations de notre héros avec des personnes féminins peu charismatique et peu développé mais aussi un côté un peu invraisemblable dont il faut faire abtraction.
Néanmoins, j'ai adoré ce drama et je l'ai dévoré avec passion ! Pourquoi ? Le rythme haletant de l'intringue, le charisme du protagoniste mais aussi de l'antagoniste principal qui tienne tout le récit à eux deux, une ost parfaite et une photo splendide ....
Again my life est l'exemple type de drama imparfait mais haletant.

Un drama qui n'apporte rien de nouveau mais qui se regarde néanmoins avec un certain plaisir.
Après un premier épisode un peu laborieux selon mon point de vue, le drama démarre enfin dès le deuxième épisode avec une notion que l'on retrouve souvent : le retour en arrière, une deuxième chance pour tout recommencer. Le concept ayant déjà été souvent exploité, je regrette qu'ici il n'y ait aucune explication logique (si logique il doit y avoir) de cette seconde chance, ni pourquoi Han Ji Hyun est "là" (bien que l'on devine comment elle se retrouve elle aussi dans cette situation). N'attendez donc pas de magie, de "la-haut", de cieux etc....malgré cette situation fantastique.La trame principale réside donc autour de la mission du protagoniste : déchoir Jo Tae Seop et ses acolytes de leur position élevée et mal acquise. Pour cela, Kim Hui Wu s'appuiera sur ses connaissances accumulées durant ses enquêtes antérieures et s'entourera d'alliés en conséquence. Un des points positif de ce drama est donc ce jeu d'échec engagé, bien qu' injuste pour Jo Tae Seop (reconnaissons le), qui permet à Kim Hui Wu de nous régaler : Il n'y a rien de plus satisfaisant que de voir les antagonistes perdre pieds et se faire attraper dans un piège à souris dont ils ne voient ni la couleur, ni le son. Rare seront les moments où Kim Hui Wu sera pris au dépourvu et ces rares moments sont rapidement résolus. Ce qui laisse tout de même, malgré le plaisir que nous prenons à voir les antagonistes se faire avoir, un sentiment un peu désagréable que tout est trop facile. Le revers de la médaille est donc cet enchainement de victoire. Le drama joue peu sur la corde du suspense et les antagonistes nous paraissent stupides, gourmands, imbus d'eux même ce qui provoquera leurs pertes. Alors oui, Jo Tae Seop est plutôt intelligent et redoutable...mais je n'ai jamais eu l'impression qu'il était au final une réelle menace pour Kim Hui Wu (sauf dans le premier et l'avant dernier épisode). Je regrette donc que ce jeu d'échec ne soit qu'à sens unique. Un duel qui laisse un arrière goût fade, surtout durant le dernier épisode. J'aurais aimé des adversaires comme on en peut en trouver : "Chef Kim" et son duo hilarant, "Nirvana in Fire" et son protagoniste de génie ou "Vincenzo" et ses vilains merveilleusement machiavéliques par exemple.
Le deuxième point positif est l'action rondement menée, sur fond d'OST entrainant et qui sied à merveille à Lee Jun Ki. Ces moments là sont très sympa à suivre.
Le dernier point positif est la relation dynamique entre Kim Hui Wu avec Lee Min Soo, Woo Yong Soo et Park Sang Man. La touche d'humour et d'émotion est parfaitement amenée par ces 3 personnages qui ont su nous surprendre, et nous faire craquer totalement.
J'ai moins apprécié ses relations avec les 3 protagonistes féminins, plus classique. La conclusion sur l'esquisse d'une "romance", inattendue et illogique, n'a pas réussi à m'étonner ni à faire battre mon coeur. Fade serait le mot qui me viendrait à l'esprit. Il y a pourtant eu des relations en filigrane pour lesquelles j'ai eu mon coeur en émoi comme dans "Taxi driver".
Il aurait été judicieux aussi de creuser en profondeur la relation entre Han Ji Hyun et son frère, ce qui nous laisse malheureusement sur notre faim.
C'est donc un drama qui se laisse regarder, apportant parfois au détour d'un épisode des moments d'humour, de loyauté et de d'action, qui ont su le rendre plaisant à suivre, et cela malgré un scénario bancal, d'antagonistes dénués de charisme, de protagonistes féminins potentiellement badass se révélant au final ennuyante, et d'une fin WTH!

Só pra começar, se tem Lee Joon Gi no elenco já merece minha atenção
Só pra começar, se tem Lee Joon Gi no elenco já merece minha atenção porque ele sempre manda muito bem em seus personagens. E aqui mais uma vez ele não decepciona.Sua atuação adiciona força a história de seu personagem e seu retrato das emoções detalhadas, mas explosivas do personagem é impecável. Parecia que havia somente ele em tela, diante de tamanho brilho. Além de talentoso o cara é muito lindo.
O roteiro é um dos mais interessantes e ao mesmo tempo mais complexos que assisti em tramas, é muita informação então toda atenção para não escapar nenhum detalhe importante para o entendimento da trama. Mas de uma maneira muito inteligente e com enlaces, alianças, planos complexos, o roteiro impecável!
Não vale meu 10 pois achei algumas pontinhas soltas que pra mim nem fariam falta.
Os personagens Kim Hee Woo e a Kim Hee-a após se juntarem e fingirem que iriam casar, acabam se apaixonando e no final começam namorar de verdade. Mas ao longo do drama não tiveram química e nem foi explorado tanto a ponto de fazer falta uma cena de romance entre eles no final.
Não entendi muito bem o personagem do Jung Sang Hoon, Lee Min-soo, qual a verdadeira importância na trama?
Surge uma personagem no meio do nada com todos os corruptos, no final, prometendo seus cargos de volta. Aqui entendi que o objetivo era sinalizar que a corrupção não acaba. Você tira um e tem vários outros mas a forma não tenho certeza se foi a melhor. Mas a mulher parecia uma doida descompensada.
Mas valeu para deixar bem claro que a justiça insiste, e persiste mesmo diante da corrupção.
