This couple is worth to watch!

To be short the long review. I really love this couple of how they Portrait their Characters in different ways. The eyes that always speaking itself that always captured my attention while I'm watching. This love team is like a chocolate that you can create a different variety that everyone gonna love it. Jim and Wen please keep it up and make your love team stronger than ever. To be honest In this series, all the good actors is here. Well done everyone. The story is so realistic that happens in every relationship, family matters and to the society. Thank you so much and hoping to see you both in more projects and as a love team. Yeheyyyyy???

guys! If you are into angst stuff. This is for you

after watching this, I can't explain how should I say the words to describe it since it has its bad and good side. so let's start.
character: the cast was great. the acting was great , the way jisung eyes always looked shiney and beautiful,the way his eyes showed emotions made me fall for him again and again. now female lead was kind of annoying and clingy I know some people won't likey opinion but ok i understand that she is worried for him but like stalking him ( i know it's not stalking but ok she looked like but no hate for actress though) like they made her look really bad.


plot: ok no spoilers so the story is good but why does nurse is annoying and actually every ep has different story and procedure so actually the story is good but ending didn't do justice and their chemistry was fine how did she fall for when did they time for this, anyway the plot is good the sidestory of ml is kind of sad also the fl sister was kind annoying but after sometime she is ok and also the main couple were kind of off and specially fl like ( i can't explain it just watch it) but it's a good drama. and I kinda learned some disease and procedure and it was interesting anyway I will end this review and the total rating of this drama is 7.6

Its been good , and could have been better

ML look like he was high in Episode 5 when he visited city hall,
and director shoot that scene like that and don't even edited it out Great..
most of time ML look at FL he look like a Pervert then her lover....
Girl and her Boyfriend and her ARMY Friend and her Pastor Friend
all are 1D character boyfriend is boyfriend army friend is just army friend
i like Army Captain were a fan or crush on her after watching her in shooting stars,
so i was more interested in her story but Director just focus on Stereotype strong woman image, Army girl who is strict with a iron wall build around herself, has no weakness not feelings
she don't have a love interest when she is around so many handsome soldiers , since she is the captain she cant have feeling for solider below her rank and there isn't anyone that is above her, and those above her are old uncles
WHY male can have crush on FL who is below his social status as CEO and his Assistant but Female cant have those to make her look strong it just made her look old fashioned stereotype ,
i wanted to see her have love line or flirting to make her more human then only a army girl and a friend, she is also a woman and human being with a lot more feelings
you don't like someone after seeing there rank in army, she is cute and pretty but no solider got a crush on her ?
i know this is Dooms day drama, and they have 199 days left to live so , that more important to give more your own feelings and desire then trying to look cool Captain.
main couple love story was boring as someone mention FL has more chemistry with Army Captain then her Boyfriend who half Seens where cut,
In ah needed a partner other then her Bestie FL or any other thing with her so she wont look 1D character just a solider nothing more then that,
You father 2nd ML was useless for most of the drama,
his church was useless

ROUND OF APPLAUSE

THE ACTING IN THIS DRAMA IS TOP-TIERRRRRRRR...
I've always been a big fan of Lee MuSaeng. His acting is always amazing but the side that we got to see in this drama, made me fall for his acting skills once again...
I don't think, Lee BoYeong's talent needs any introduction, like always, she delivered her best in this drama too....♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Now, let's talk about the story.....Every episode of this drama was meaningful, no extra scenes, no dragging story....Everything was perfectly balanced...

I wanna mention my most favorite scene, soooo SPOILER ALERTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!




The moment, MoonYeong sees her husband cheating on her, instead of crying and blaming him, she drives her car into the house and beats him with a golf stick.....Woahhhhhhhhhh!!!!! Queennnnnnnnn>>>>>>>>

Wow…

This was literally so so good.
The acting and the chemistry was 10000000/10
All the actors were great. Mileapo and biblebuild made this show worth it with their outstanding chemistry and great acting.
I also loved the side characters. They were so funny at some points and I actually laughed (I’m telling you, you can’t make me laugh really easily).
The oldest brother of the family also stole the show. Especially on that one episode I died laughing.

To people saying that they were toxic OF COURSE were toxic too ITS A MAFIA SHOW!! Did you expect all the characters to be 100% sane and kind and good?! For me that was realistic. It’s not like they are telling everyone “romantise toxicness”. I’m repeating, it’s a mafia show they are not characters that you should idolize. With that logic it was toxic literally killing people, no sh*t sherlock.

The production, the music, the outstanding acting and scenario made this show to live up its reputation for me.

The only reason I don’t put a 10/10 is because I was annoyed with some repetition of some actions. I can’t comment a lot without spoilers but imagine someone doing a mistake or something not good for him and just doing it over over and over and us getting back to 0 for like the 4th time. At a point I said “you have to be stupid to… again” and “here we go again oh my god”. For that it’s like they wanted to add a little bit of teenage drama.

Passable

Jeon Yeo Been is an amazing actress, the switch between Min Ju and Ju Hee is amazing so much so that I was able to recognize which character she was just by her eyes. Ahn Hyo Seop was good especially in Episode 11.
overall story is meh, but the characters are good ( sometimes). The first 2 episodes are snoozefest, it gets better in the middle but starts going down when they start explaining their time travel mechanics, as there are numerous plot holes and a bunch of unnecessary stuff. Still the ending message was good alingwith the final plot twist.
Ok watch. Don't really recommend it. Watch it if you're a fan of Jeon Yeo Been.

A heartfelt bucket list movie.

After finding out the cancer has relapsed, Shane is totally aware of what she has to go through again if she were to get treatment. So, not wanting to face the same trouble, she decided not to get treatment but instead to live her life to the fullest in her final months. Shane, her husband Byran, and their childhood friend Kristoff embark on a journey to Tasmania, Australia, to accomplish the 'Magic List'.

The idea of a terminally sick patient crossing things off their bucket list is not new. But despite lacking novelty, there are a few things that make this movie something more than checking off a bucket list. The journey is filled with not only picturesque places, travelogue-ish moments, and activity; it also explores friendship and love in a simple way, focusing on reconnecting with lost relationships. While the main characters are childhood friends of two men and a woman, there’s no love triangle involved. It’s pure friendship. So the conflict isn't very complicated.

When it comes to movies about illnesses, the melancholic and tear-jerking parts are expected. This movie managed to deliver both the tonality of enjoyable trip and the bleak side of reality very well. Although this movie has a good story structure, the pacing seems pretty rushed. It seems like it wants the audience to feel the sentimentality, but there is not enough space to really feel it or drown in the emotions. It's like a knee-jerk reaction. However, the good storylines help in making the whole idea and emotions palpable. With an impactful plot twist and a positive message about life, genuine love, and undying friendship, this movie stands out on its own despite having the all bucket list movie tropes.

Overall, it’s a good movie. but it could've been done better. How sad this movie is may depend on the individual, but it’s a movie to watch if you need an emotional release. Get a box of tissues ready.

Interesting story ruined by its nonsensical ending.

This is one of those titles that I would have enjoyed watching when i was still 15. I would have put a higher rewatch value and would have liked this drama much more than i do now when i'm older and seen many detective dramas with better writing (one of them from the same writer).

Story, pacing and writing:
So many plot twists and mysteries. The story was pretty intense and kept me up, but it had lots of plot holes and did not make sense a lot of the times. I watched a lot of mystery kdramas, but this one was confusing as hell, and not in the best way. As some reviewer already pointed out, it felt like a puzzle that was revealed piece by piece each episode. But think of it like that - this puzzle has many missing pieces, and many pieces were forcefully put in the wrong places. The puzzle is not complete.

The way some of the plot lines were lining up did not made much sense at all, there is no way it would all connect the way it did. There were many missed opportunities and loopholes, and you would think that in the span of 18 episodes they would give us a proper explanation but it did not happen. The pacing was also messy, draggy at times when it was not needed and super fast at times when it is not supposed to be. Everything was leading up to a boiling point, and the big reveal was completely ignored. It does feel like it was supposed to be 20 eps but they squeezed everything in those last episodes (better say the last 20 minutes of the last episode).

Cast:
I have heard lots of bad reviews about Go Ah Ra's acting, and I tried to avoid her kdramas. But i recently watched Voice 4 with Song Seung Heon and i grew a liking towards him, so i gave this a chance. FL was a typical damsel in distress and i guess it was fitting with the overall story.

Final opinion:
If you want a detective + mystery + romance + thriller kdrama with bits of comedy, don't really care for logic in the writing as much and don't tend to overanalyze stuff - then i would suggest this drama to you. I ran out of good detective thrillers, so i resorted to watching Black even though it had mixed reviews. I do not regret watching it, even though i was very disappointed with the ending. Again, it seems like it is not the writer's fault. This kdrama deserved a better ending.

The ending and my venting (contains spoilers!!!):
The ending was dogshit awful and very nonsensical. After I've read articles saying that it was the director who came up with the last 5 minutes trying to make it a happy ending, completely disregarding the writer's original script which made much more sense to me and many other viewers. I'm wondering that was in the director's head when he came up with with that granny make-up and fairytale-like ending? This kind of story did not need a happy-end, although i wish that at least Ha Ram found out about the whole grim reaper thing while he was still there, i was waiting for the moment of revelation and tried to imagine how it would turn out. Missed opportunity to explore that old man who also saw shadows - was he also a half grim reaper, and another one with her mom who knew that her husband was a grim reaper and now her daughter's romantic interest is also one as well. Also, maybe it was just me, but for the most part of the kdrama i thought that that shady doctor and evil killer-stalker guy were the same person. The actors looked a like and it made no sense to me that this doctor had that much time to do all of the stuff he was doing... Just wanted to add that here lol

A great story with well-developed romance, and AMAZING SUPPORTING CHARACTERS

I just want to say the side characters in this drama are amazing, I love so much of the supporting characters. I love how they all have their own personalities and are fun to watch.
I rated the music low as none of it really caught my attention. SEVENTEEN's Ost was nice but its too repetitive for me. Anyways, that aside. The story and characters are all great and I really enjoyed it. I want to mention the development of the romance between Tong Yao and Lu Si Cheng. I find it really natural and well-developed, and they are pretty cute too
I like the gaming aspect, though I did skip ahead on the video game animations I just simply didn't care enough.
Anyways, I recommend it, its a good drama with all amazing characters and a good romance and story.
