Ok I usually don't like watching horror or people getting possessed or I tend to avoid things about exorcism. Even the poster looks creepy. But I got curious about this drama + it had positive reviews and high ratings + it's an OCN drama + awesome actors in it, and so I decided to watch it.
I really fell in love with it! It's super interesting :D Also, awesome acting from all main actors + supporting actors, especially those who acted as evil ghosts or possessed, it was really realistic.
Ok, the evil ghosts are creepy and people getting possessed is creepy and scary for me as well. However, as I watched more episodes I got more used to it and did not mind it that much.
Although, I admit that I had to take breaks between case (each case took about approximately 2 episodes if I remember correctly up till ep 9) as either it ended up sad or maybe yeah the trio won, but still it was creepy.
Also, I'm really curious about Park II Ho. Yeah, he is the main villain, but I want to know more about him. Like they should try to investigate about him or something. Probably he was a person before he turned into an evil ghost and see what happened to him, etc. Unless he is a demon like in the series of Supernatural. Anyway, we'll see.
EDIT 1: On ep 15.....and on ep 15 (6/5/19)
Ok, we got to know about Park II Ho when he was a "human" in episode 10. If he was considered a human, as he was totally a psycho. Even his own family removed him from the family registry. The thing they did wrong is they covered up his murders, which led him to kill his wife and child + himself to turn into an evil spirit. He started to possess people, control ghosts, use humans and ghosts and eventually kill everyone for 60 years+
That left me speechless. He was a total demon with no emotions at all, just liking killing people for his own pleasure. I don't think he had any reasons at all.
The bright side, the trio; the taxi driver (if he still is), the priest and the policewoman managed to save some people, however most of the time, the demon won and those parts were really sad and at times made me cry.
Also, in ep 15, I'm currently feeling speechless, scared, angry and kind of a void. Priest Yang was Park II Ho and in this episode he finally revealed himself. He totally possessed him for 20 years and few noticed, but those who noticed got ignored or ended up dead. He totally fooled me and everyone.
At first I thought the politician lady was Park II Ho, but they showed her talking to the spirit of Park II Ho and so she was not. Well, technically she is a relative of Park II Ho who is totally the same as him; a murderer and evil.
Moreover, in this episode, the trio went after the demon and it got more creepy and made me more speechless. Literally, anyone who came in the way of the demon, he got a person possessed and the possessed one killed other people and obviously killed himself. It's a killing spree.
I'm really hoping the trio will vanquish this demon and put everyone who died because of him to rest. I'm hoping none of the trio dies during this process. Also, I don't know what they will do exactly as the priest was cursed and if he does exorcism, he will die. On the other hand, the other method the taxi driver knows is by putting the demon inside him, trap him and then kill himself, if I understood correctly.
I don't know, it started as a tragedy 20 years ago from the ugly deaths of the 3 families of the trio, and more people kept dying related or not to related to them. And I have a feeling it will end as a tragedy. Even if they won, I think I will feel empty, as still all those people died for nothing. Uhh, I'm feeling so sad and depressed.
Btw.....
General thoughts about the drama:
Ok, not focusing on the story; awesome acting from each actor. Very realistic acting. Also, great music, I think it went well with the setting of the story.
Also, the story is awesome. Ok, it makes you feel hopeless at times, depressed, angry, sad, etc + lots of deaths and scary and creepy stuff, but it got me hooked and made me keep watching and hoping that the good guys will hopefully win against the demon (hopefully they will). Anyway, definitely worth a watch :D
MAJOR SPOILERS:
EDIT 2: Beginnging of ep 16....
Ok, I totally did not expect that the demon will kill himself and say that he is finally free. What does that even mean? I totally got more speechless. Did he truly want to stop or does he something else planned? He did say he changed his plan, whatever that is.
At least, the people that got possessed in the village came back to normal from their zombie state before they ended up killing other people in the village.
Also, what about the thing that the shaman, the friend of the taxi driver found and died for it? What was it? I don't think it ends easily like that, we'll see.
I totally have no idea what will happen next.......
EDIT 3: Middle of ep 16.....
Ok, I felt like there was something else and it was too easy but I totally did not expect this. It was actually the grandpa who was Park II Ho. Father Yang was freely assisting him, but I think he began to feel guilty or got tired of it, which is why he killed himself and said that he is finally free. Now it makes sense.
Ok, so technically the taxi driver was next to Park II Ho/grandpa for 20 years and he did not notice. No wonder he could not find him anywhere! Also, the taxi driver never got possessed and Park II Ho apparently wanted to possess him, but couldn't since the taxi driver is a powerful and special psychic. So the whole plan was to weaken him and Park II Ho killed everyone like his family, friends, etc in order to possess him. Uhh, he even said that it was all a game and for fun! I really want to slap him!!
Also, the families of the priest and the policewoman got involved and killed because the taxi driver as a young boy was scared and asked for help and Park II Ho had to kill them to cover himself. I was right, it's a tragedy from the beginning till the end. I'm hoping the trio will vanquish him.......
EDIT 4: Near the end of ep 16....
I cried so much. To kill Park II Ho or whoever he was as apparently he had many names, the taxi driver had to kill himself. I really wanted none of the trio to die, maybe I expected too much. At least the other two lived, but still it was so sad :_( I'm still crying :_(
EDIT 5: Finished!
Oh my! He lived, he lived, he lived!!!!! :D I'm so happy, the trio won!!!!! :D I thought it was a sad ending, but it was turned into a happy one, yay!!!! :D Perfect ending :D
Awesome article! :D I have watched Signal, Missing Noir M and Voice, I loved them and they were awesome dramas :D They made me feel all kinds of emotions. For the other two dramas, I haven't watched them yet, but they look interesting, I will check them out :)
Btw, you should definitely watch season 2 of voice, it was a good drama as well :D
Loved it! :D Although the story was shortened, felt rushed, changed some parts, some characters like Jiang Zhi Shu's brother, etc were left out (in the sense they appeared but there was barely any story about them) and even managed to get the doctor and nurse careers as well, I loved it :D
The leads were cute and adorable <3 I loved that the main lead had expressions like smiling or jealousy looks, etc (as his character is usually portrayed as cold and expressionless) and the main actress wasn't excessively annoying, she was just right :D
Definitely worth a watch ^_^
Also, I cannot say it's the best version ever comparing it to the other versions (as I loved some of the others versions as well), but still I loved this version :D
I have watched all the versions (excluding the recent 3 part Japanese movies, I haven't watched them yet) and as someone said in the comments below, the adaptions keep changing for the better :)
However, I still think that they should stop adapting this story. Don't get me wrong, I love this story, however I believe that there are many awesome stories out there that have not been adapted yet. Like this story is originally a manga and then adapted to an anime and then later on to these live action dramas or movies.
Ok, this story is my guilty pleasure and if they make another adaption, I will definitely watch it lol :P
Although the acting of the male lead is better here, for the story I prefer season 1. Season 1 felt like it was balanced with 28 episodes and I enjoyed it much more.
In season 2 there are more episodes and that made the story draggy. I started to fast forward this drama from ep 5, as I felt like there were many scenes that were useless that could have been removed.
However, in the middle of it where the story turned into solving murder cases and they tried to see if those 3 humans were killed by mutants or by other humans, it turned more interesting. I still fast forward some parts of each episode though.
Also, the parts where they showed about the S organisation, the others mutants current lives and their original lives before they turned mutants were interesting as well.
For the leads, they are cute together and had many adorable moments, but since we already saw their cuteness in season 1, I was less excited. Ok, they are different actors but still with the same characters.
I actually enjoyed the love story between Yun Zhen and Ye Mei Xiao more, they were so cute together ^_^ Ok, I cried a lot when Yun Zhen died, since that mutant Doctor took his spinal cord. I'm hoping that in the last 3 episodes, they will revive him somehow.
For the mutant baby on the way; although I'm curious about the baby, it's nothing new. The moment Tian Jing Zhi was pregnant, I was like 'Oh it's like Breaking Dawn with Bella pregnant from Edward and it was supposed to be impossible since he is a vampire who is supposed to be dead.' Here in this drama, similar to it.
However, the part where they moved the baby to Bai Lu, made it more interesting. Although I was kind of against it. I thought the baby or Bai Lu's body would reject it so I was afraid Chang An, the baby would die. Although, they made us believe that he died at one point in the story, in the end, Tian Jing Zhi's little uncle/mutant lied to take the baby, so I was relived that he lived :D
For the Doctor, although he turned out to be the main villain all along and killed innocent people, I still felt sorry for him. He was buried alive with his parents. Ok, it doesn't mean you have to kill other people, but I felt sorry for him. In a way, he has a good heart, but he is still twisted and obsessed to become a powerful mutant. Also, I did not guess it was him, I thought it was Tian Jing Zhi's little uncle, although the uncle is not totally innocent and he is the one who tricked Yun Zhen and got him killed.
Btw, for the relationships between the characters, they were all so cute together :D I liked their friendship, bromance between the men and sismance between the women ^_^
I'll continue watching......
EDIT: Finished!
Great ending with the marriage and Tian Jing Zhi marrying in jeans, lol so hilarious and original :D
On the whole I liked it and enjoyed it ^_^ Although, I fast forward most of the drama, it was still enjoyable and addicting to watch. Well, I did not take a break from it, I kept watching in fast forward mode.
Also, I'm glad that they found a way to bring Yun Zhen back :D Also, Chang An was very adorable, mature and very intelligent.
I like the story, the cast, the characters, the acting and chemistry of the main leads.
However, when I read the synopsis, what I found interesting in it, was the message in the bottle. Yeah ok she is following it and broke up with the author boyfriend, however I wanted the story to be more focused on the bottle plot.
But what I'm getting is the relationship drama. Yeah I want the main actress to end up with Dou Ru and hopefully she will, if she doesn't she is 100% blind.
He is perfect for her; he knows her strengths, her weaknesses, he knew her for a long time, he always helps her, he appears when she is sad because of her ex-boyfriend, he appears when she calls or texts him, he sees her beautiful as she is, he accepted her flaws, he always makes her happy, he always make jokes to make her smile, he also appears in front of her as a knight in shining armour, he helps her in her spying work, he is handsome, cute and adorable and most importantly he loves her as she is :D I wish I have someone like that, I would definitely fall for him <3 There is definitely more things why he is perfect for her for sure :3 :3 One flaw about him is that he holds back and hasn't told her he loves her! I hope he does it soon.
Anyway, I like the story and it is quite good, but I wanted to see the bottle in the message plot. I don't know how I wanted it, but I wanted this drama to focus on that. I'll continue watching.....
EDIT 1: On ep 10..... (25/4/19)
Although, I'm currently fast forwarding a bit, I'm liking it a lit better :) As someone said in the comments below; the moment Ai Mi Li decided to be her true self again, the story turned more hilarious + the leads more adorable and cute together <3
However, right now that are other factors that are preventing them from getting together, like Lawyer Sun (although he is cute and handsome and nice as well :3) but he hasn't told Ai Mi Li that he likes her yet and the anchorwoman who got divorced from her husband and definitely wants to end up with Dou Ru again. So I'm hoping that the leads will get together soon.
Commenting on the story again, I kind of accepted that the story won't revolve around the bottle message in the way I wanted but I did not know how I wanted it lol. So I'm liking the parts where Ai Mi Li tries to follow them. At least, 2 of them are followed. She broke up with her author boyfriend and she is being herself.
For the others, I think the reunion refers to make up and be friends again with her college friend who fought because Ai Mi Li hanged out with a girl called Gina and this girl cheated with her boyfriend. Dou Ru and Ai Mi Li's brother tried to get them to make up but they didn't, so she still needs to follow this one.
For the Go Home, it definitely refers to make up with her father and go back home. She did go and talked with her father in his car, but she refused to go home so she did not follow it either I think.
For the Reverse, I still have no idea what it refers to, but I think we will get to it soon.
EDIT 2: On ep 13..... (26/4/19)
For the message bottle part, she followed another 2. For the reunion, she made up with her ex-friend and they are best friends again.
For the go home part, she went back to her father's home for the new year. However, it did not end well, because her father wanted to marry the woman he is with since he has been living with her for years and wants to give her a status, which makes sense. But, Ai Mi Li does not approve because her father had divorced her mother + he did not go to see her even before her mother died, so Ai Mi Li is angry because of that. I think there is something more to it, I'm guessing her mother actually cheated on her father and her father did not tell Ai Mi Li, we'll see.
For the main leads, they are so frustrating!! Dou Ru finally told Ai Mi Li he likes her and she kisses him back and I thought, they are finally together, yay :D However, since she was drunk, she forgot about it in the morning, uhh!!!!
Then when Ai Mi Li was going to tell him she likes him, he decided to fight with her and move out and I think it's because of his illness when he hit his head, so he does not want to hold her back or something, uhh!
I'm definitely fast forwarding the last 2 episodes......
EDIT 3: On ep 15 in the middle of it...... (26/4/19)
Ok I guessed, her mother actually cheated on her father and she finally patched up with her father and his new wife.
Other couples are finally together and they are so cute ^_^
The main leads are more and more frustrating! They should get together already! Hopefully, we'll see them together near the end.
For the bottle message part, the irony she wrote it when she got drunk in the reunion. Ok I so not expected this. When her high school friend was showing her a video about her being drunk and all, I thought that maybe she told him to write the bottle message since he had the bottle in his hand. But she wrote it hahaha. She did not even recognize her own writing hahahaha. Ok, I laughed really hard.
However, she threw in the ocean, and what are the chances to find it again? So we can say it was her fate or destiny to change her life. Anyway, she really wanted to change things and followed her own message. Well she actually thought it was cursed, but anyway she helped herself :D
EDIT 4: Finally finished! :D
We got to know the reverse part. She wanted to go back in time and change those moments when she chickened out and did not tell the truth that she actually liked Dou Ru. So although they couldn't change time, they told their true feeling to each other at that time and after 10 years, they got together :D
In general I liked it and enjoyed it :) Although I started to fast forward it early on in the drama and wanted the bottle message plot in a different way, I enjoyed this drama ^_^
I wish that the leads got together much early on, so we could see more lovely dovey moments or at least we could had a whole last episode, but at least we got a happy ending to the leads and the other couples :D
PS: I wanted to mention that I loved those scenes when they were watching a movie, and they were the ones in the movies, it was so hilarious xD
interesting article :D I really love all these actors and actresses listed and did not know that they were discovered. Thank you for this article and they are all awesome :D
I loved the story + the time loop part. It made the whole story interesting, hilarious, awesome, happy, at times sad, etc. It made me feel lots of emotions.
I also loved the parts in the story where they dealt with corruption in the company, work abuse, the treatment of the employees, about customers, etc and how the main leads and supporting cast helped to change their company for the better ^_^
Furthermore, I loved the main leads, they were so cute and adorable together + they had great chemistry :D Even though it took at the end of the drama for the leads to get officially together + we had no kiss scene (I really wanted a kiss scene!) I loved them.
Moreover, it changed the usual pattern of the leads getting together quickly. Here we got to see them go to many obstacles together + rejections, until finally they both realized that they need each other and cannot live without one other + they are perfect for each other :D
I also loved seeing the Baek Jin Sang grow and change for the better. He is a straight forward person, so others needed to be straight and honest to him too. It was thanks to Lee Do Ra who grabbed his collar of his coat (I laughed really hard at that scene xD) and made him think about his actions, how rude and harsh he was to others + people make mistakes all the time so there is no need to make them feel useless or a failure.
Ok, at the end when he became a director, he did not totally changed. However there is Lee Do Ra who keeps him in check and scolds him whenever he started to be rude and harsh to people again. I imagined him as a puppy at that moment, when Lee Do Ra scolded him, he was so cute lol :D
On the negative side: To be honest, in the middle of it, I got annoyed and started to fast forward it + I cried a lot and got sad when Lee Do Ra died.
However, I really loved the last 6 episodes and these got my full attention again. Here Baek Jin Sang got to change his mistakes + found out how the time loop started + saved the woman who had quit the marketing team because of him from the fire + he started the labour union which was awesome :D Also, helped those people who wanted revenge or end up in jail or down the wrong path for the better :D
Although, in real life we cannot change time or die multiple times like Baek Jin Sang to change the past :P , this drama gives a great messages in a hilarious way.
I believe it gives messages like: Live life to the fullest, do the right thing, help others if they need help, speak up if injustice is going on, help the weak, do not treat people badly because of their gender, race, background, status, money or power, etc. I'm sure you can come up with more :D
Another thing to be honest about is that I started this drama with no exceptions + I did not know what to watch + I only read the first sentence of the synopsis and I was really surprised that they turned an office drama into a supernatural story. Well, my fault for not reading it well ;P and I was actually in the mood for an office drama and got surprised with the time loop story which I loved and made this whole drama awesome and interesting :D
Anyway, for a short version, I loved this drama with an interesting time loop story + great chemistry between the leads + great acting from all cast + great characters + hilarious + got me to feel lots of emotions = worth a watch! :D Also, it wasn't perfect and got annoyed in the middle of it, but most of the drama was good, so I'll give it 8/10.
I loved it :D It was short, cute and hilarious ^_^ Ok the acting wasn't the best ever, but I still enjoyed it :D Also, if it was BL it would have been better, as the BL parts the main actress was imagining were awesome :D Although I liked it as it was :)
For me i Think in the last episode when she helped the grandma she explains that through the many versions of…
yes true I agree, I did not see it that way. I wanted an explanation or a twist or something in the story. I still liked the story though, thank you :)
Loved it :D It was hilarious, original and awesome drama :D
I loved Power Rangers as a child which are similar to the Japanese ones. Although I don't watch them anymore, I still love them. However, I mostly loved watching stories, movies, cartoons and anime + later on when I got older, I got into Asian dramas, watched more anime and read manga == my point is that I loved them as a child and got more obsessed with them that now I'm an adult :D
I found Nakamura very similar to me. I'm 22 years old. My obsession are stories which include movies (ex: Harry Potter, Marvel Movies, DC Movies, etc), series (ex: Merlin, Supergirl, etc), soap operas, cartoons and animated movies (ex: Disney, Dreamworks, Pixar, etc) for the American and European.
Also, Asian dramas and movies like Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, Thai, Chinese, Philippines and I need to watch more Hong Kong and Turkish dramas (I watched a few and liked them so I need to watch more :D). I love to watch anime and read manga :D I'm totally obsessed ^_^
Moreover, I also prefer staying at home watching rather than going out. I do love going out, but I do it once in a while and when I want to meet up with my friends. Even if I go out I mostly go to the movie theaters or go to eat in restaurants lol :D
Also, my mother did not understand my obsession in watching. Ok she did let me watch television as a kid after doing my homework + she did it to keep quiet since apparently I was annoying as a child :P However when I got into Asian dramas, many times she threatened to break my computer and then my laptop since I spend lots of time watching and did not understand why I loved them. However, I'm stubborn as a rock and at one point she accepted it :D Yay I won lol ^_^
Also, I am a kind of closet geek. The only ones I know most or are my closest friends know that I love to watch Asian dramas. People I know but I don't consider them my friends (like Damien said) or colleagues at work do not know that I love Asian dramas. I only tell them that I love movies and series from American or European ones, since most of the people in my country watch those. I did tell once and they looked at me like some alien.
Anyway, my point of all this is that since it's really similar to my situation, I loved this drama :D Ok in different ways, but very similar + I'm definitely watching movies, series, cartoons, animated movies, Asian dramas and movies, anime and manga for the rest of my life xD But not these only, I want to discover other countries movies or series. If I find them in english subs, I would watch for sure :D
PS: It's the first time I wrote more on myself rather than the drama lol. Anyway, this drama is short but sweet + awesome :D Definitely worth a watch :D
This mostly happens with my sister. She assumes all Asian people are Chinese and she hates reading subtitles or is too lazy to read it (and I'm like the best part of a drama or a movie is to watch it in it's original language!) Uhh I hate it when she does that to me and I'm like bye.
But then again my sister doesn't watch much. She doesn't even know about Disney animated movies, Marvel movies or most watched movies and I'm talking about the most popular ones :0
For some of my friends they also comment that they don't want to read subtitles or prefer to watch series or movies in English only, uhh!
I like this drama :D It's hilarious with sweet, cute and awesome chemistry between the leads ^_^ The other characters are nice and enjoyable to watch as well :)
I mostly love the parts where Han Se Gye changes into other persons for a week. It's the most interesting, hilarious and awesome parts :D Although at times it's sad because it makes her lonely and misunderstood by other people especially since she is an actress. Even her only two friends sometimes do not recognize her.
At least the main lead recognizes her even when she turns into a literally different person, which makes them so cute together ^_^
What I'm really curious about: 1 = What triggered her to change into a different person each time in the first place? 2 = Who are these people she changes to? 3= Although for her these people only exist for a week, do these people she changes into, exist?
I really hope I get some answers, and if I don't I'll probably end up disappointed. Anyway, we'll see.
For the rest, the parts about work related to the air line + useless conversations + the parents + the main actress of the SIX drama, Han Se Gye is acting in (she's annoying). These parts makes the drama feel draggy and boring and so I fast forward those parts.
I'm mostly watching for the supernatural parts, the leads' chemistry, interactions and dates + kisses ;D and the parts where Han Se Gye is acting :D
Also, I'm curious about the relationship between the future priest and Kang Sa Ra and hoe they will end up = I'm really shipping them + also I'm shipping the secretary of Seo Da Jae and Han Se Gye's manager. We'll see :)
Btw, Han Se Gye's dog is so cute and aborable <3
EDIT:
Finished! I liked it :D
Although I got a bit disappointed, that we don't know why she changes, it's was still interesting to watch + she got to help people when she changed. The ex-priest and Sa Ra got together, yay :D But the secretary and manager did not, it's a shame as she had a boyfriend and was going to get married.
I also liked all the cast and characters, they all did a good job :D I also loved how the 3 main women in this drama were all sassy, strong and awesome :D
Although I liked it there were times that feel long, boring or too dramatic and I had to fast forward, but generally I liked it :)
Definitely worth a watch ^_^ Her dog is so cute and adorable <3

currently watching......and on ep 9 (4/5/19)
Ok I usually don't like watching horror or people getting possessed or I tend to avoid things about exorcism. Even the poster looks creepy. But I got curious about this drama + it had positive reviews and high ratings + it's an OCN drama + awesome actors in it, and so I decided to watch it.
I really fell in love with it! It's super interesting :D Also, awesome acting from all main actors + supporting actors, especially those who acted as evil ghosts or possessed, it was really realistic.
Ok, the evil ghosts are creepy and people getting possessed is creepy and scary for me as well. However, as I watched more episodes I got more used to it and did not mind it that much.
Although, I admit that I had to take breaks between case (each case took about approximately 2 episodes if I remember correctly up till ep 9) as either it ended up sad or maybe yeah the trio won, but still it was creepy.
Also, I'm really curious about Park II Ho. Yeah, he is the main villain, but I want to know more about him. Like they should try to investigate about him or something. Probably he was a person before he turned into an evil ghost and see what happened to him, etc. Unless he is a demon like in the series of Supernatural. Anyway, we'll see.

Anyway, definitely worth a watch :D
MAJOR SPOILERS:
EDIT 2: Beginnging of ep 16....
Ok, I totally did not expect that the demon will kill himself and say that he is finally free. What does that even mean? I totally got more speechless. Did he truly want to stop or does he something else planned? He did say he changed his plan, whatever that is.
At least, the people that got possessed in the village came back to normal from their zombie state before they ended up killing other people in the village.
Also, what about the thing that the shaman, the friend of the taxi driver found and died for it? What was it? I don't think it ends easily like that, we'll see.
I totally have no idea what will happen next.......
EDIT 3: Middle of ep 16.....
Ok, I felt like there was something else and it was too easy but I totally did not expect this. It was actually the grandpa who was Park II Ho. Father Yang was freely assisting him, but I think he began to feel guilty or got tired of it, which is why he killed himself and said that he is finally free. Now it makes sense.
Ok, so technically the taxi driver was next to Park II Ho/grandpa for 20 years and he did not notice. No wonder he could not find him anywhere! Also, the taxi driver never got possessed and Park II Ho apparently wanted to possess him, but couldn't since the taxi driver is a powerful and special psychic. So the whole plan was to weaken him and Park II Ho killed everyone like his family, friends, etc in order to possess him. Uhh, he even said that it was all a game and for fun! I really want to slap him!!
Also, the families of the priest and the policewoman got involved and killed because the taxi driver as a young boy was scared and asked for help and Park II Ho had to kill them to cover himself. I was right, it's a tragedy from the beginning till the end. I'm hoping the trio will vanquish him.......
EDIT 4: Near the end of ep 16....
I cried so much. To kill Park II Ho or whoever he was as apparently he had many names, the taxi driver had to kill himself. I really wanted none of the trio to die, maybe I expected too much. At least the other two lived, but still it was so sad :_( I'm still crying :_(
EDIT 5: Finished!
Oh my! He lived, he lived, he lived!!!!! :D I'm so happy, the trio won!!!!! :D I thought it was a sad ending, but it was turned into a happy one, yay!!!! :D Perfect ending :D
Btw, you should definitely watch season 2 of voice, it was a good drama as well :D
The leads were cute and adorable <3 I loved that the main lead had expressions like smiling or jealousy looks, etc (as his character is usually portrayed as cold and expressionless) and the main actress wasn't excessively annoying, she was just right :D
Definitely worth a watch ^_^
Also, I cannot say it's the best version ever comparing it to the other versions (as I loved some of the others versions as well), but still I loved this version :D
I have watched all the versions (excluding the recent 3 part Japanese movies, I haven't watched them yet) and as someone said in the comments below, the adaptions keep changing for the better :)
However, I still think that they should stop adapting this story. Don't get me wrong, I love this story, however I believe that there are many awesome stories out there that have not been adapted yet. Like this story is originally a manga and then adapted to an anime and then later on to these live action dramas or movies.
Ok, this story is my guilty pleasure and if they make another adaption, I will definitely watch it lol :P
currently watching and on ep 35.....
Although the acting of the male lead is better here, for the story I prefer season 1. Season 1 felt like it was balanced with 28 episodes and I enjoyed it much more.
In season 2 there are more episodes and that made the story draggy. I started to fast forward this drama from ep 5, as I felt like there were many scenes that were useless that could have been removed.
However, in the middle of it where the story turned into solving murder cases and they tried to see if those 3 humans were killed by mutants or by other humans, it turned more interesting. I still fast forward some parts of each episode though.
Also, the parts where they showed about the S organisation, the others mutants current lives and their original lives before they turned mutants were interesting as well.
For the leads, they are cute together and had many adorable moments, but since we already saw their cuteness in season 1, I was less excited. Ok, they are different actors but still with the same characters.
I actually enjoyed the love story between Yun Zhen and Ye Mei Xiao more, they were so cute together ^_^ Ok, I cried a lot when Yun Zhen died, since that mutant Doctor took his spinal cord. I'm hoping that in the last 3 episodes, they will revive him somehow.
For the mutant baby on the way; although I'm curious about the baby, it's nothing new. The moment Tian Jing Zhi was pregnant, I was like 'Oh it's like Breaking Dawn with Bella pregnant from Edward and it was supposed to be impossible since he is a vampire who is supposed to be dead.' Here in this drama, similar to it.
However, the part where they moved the baby to Bai Lu, made it more interesting. Although I was kind of against it. I thought the baby or Bai Lu's body would reject it so I was afraid Chang An, the baby would die. Although, they made us believe that he died at one point in the story, in the end, Tian Jing Zhi's little uncle/mutant lied to take the baby, so I was relived that he lived :D
For the Doctor, although he turned out to be the main villain all along and killed innocent people, I still felt sorry for him. He was buried alive with his parents. Ok, it doesn't mean you have to kill other people, but I felt sorry for him. In a way, he has a good heart, but he is still twisted and obsessed to become a powerful mutant. Also, I did not guess it was him, I thought it was Tian Jing Zhi's little uncle, although the uncle is not totally innocent and he is the one who tricked Yun Zhen and got him killed.
Btw, for the relationships between the characters, they were all so cute together :D I liked their friendship, bromance between the men and sismance between the women ^_^
I'll continue watching......
EDIT: Finished!
Great ending with the marriage and Tian Jing Zhi marrying in jeans, lol so hilarious and original :D
On the whole I liked it and enjoyed it ^_^ Although, I fast forward most of the drama, it was still enjoyable and addicting to watch. Well, I did not take a break from it, I kept watching in fast forward mode.
Also, I'm glad that they found a way to bring Yun Zhen back :D Also, Chang An was very adorable, mature and very intelligent.
Moreover, I liked all cast and characters ^_^
The end :D
currently watching.....and on ep 4 (22/4/19)
I like the story, the cast, the characters, the acting and chemistry of the main leads.
However, when I read the synopsis, what I found interesting in it, was the message in the bottle. Yeah ok she is following it and broke up with the author boyfriend, however I wanted the story to be more focused on the bottle plot.
But what I'm getting is the relationship drama. Yeah I want the main actress to end up with Dou Ru and hopefully she will, if she doesn't she is 100% blind.
He is perfect for her; he knows her strengths, her weaknesses, he knew her for a long time, he always helps her, he appears when she is sad because of her ex-boyfriend, he appears when she calls or texts him, he sees her beautiful as she is, he accepted her flaws, he always makes her happy, he always make jokes to make her smile, he also appears in front of her as a knight in shining armour, he helps her in her spying work, he is handsome, cute and adorable and most importantly he loves her as she is :D I wish I have someone like that, I would definitely fall for him <3 There is definitely more things why he is perfect for her for sure :3 :3 One flaw about him is that he holds back and hasn't told her he loves her! I hope he does it soon.
Anyway, I like the story and it is quite good, but I wanted to see the bottle in the message plot. I don't know how I wanted it, but I wanted this drama to focus on that. I'll continue watching.....
EDIT 1: On ep 10..... (25/4/19)
Although, I'm currently fast forwarding a bit, I'm liking it a lit better :) As someone said in the comments below; the moment Ai Mi Li decided to be her true self again, the story turned more hilarious + the leads more adorable and cute together <3
However, right now that are other factors that are preventing them from getting together, like Lawyer Sun (although he is cute and handsome and nice as well :3) but he hasn't told Ai Mi Li that he likes her yet and the anchorwoman who got divorced from her husband and definitely wants to end up with Dou Ru again. So I'm hoping that the leads will get together soon.
Commenting on the story again, I kind of accepted that the story won't revolve around the bottle message in the way I wanted but I did not know how I wanted it lol. So I'm liking the parts where Ai Mi Li tries to follow them. At least, 2 of them are followed. She broke up with her author boyfriend and she is being herself.
For the others, I think the reunion refers to make up and be friends again with her college friend who fought because Ai Mi Li hanged out with a girl called Gina and this girl cheated with her boyfriend. Dou Ru and Ai Mi Li's brother tried to get them to make up but they didn't, so she still needs to follow this one.
For the Go Home, it definitely refers to make up with her father and go back home. She did go and talked with her father in his car, but she refused to go home so she did not follow it either I think.
For the Reverse, I still have no idea what it refers to, but I think we will get to it soon.
EDIT 2: On ep 13..... (26/4/19)
For the message bottle part, she followed another 2. For the reunion, she made up with her ex-friend and they are best friends again.
For the go home part, she went back to her father's home for the new year. However, it did not end well, because her father wanted to marry the woman he is with since he has been living with her for years and wants to give her a status, which makes sense. But, Ai Mi Li does not approve because her father had divorced her mother + he did not go to see her even before her mother died, so Ai Mi Li is angry because of that. I think there is something more to it, I'm guessing her mother actually cheated on her father and her father did not tell Ai Mi Li, we'll see.
For the main leads, they are so frustrating!! Dou Ru finally told Ai Mi Li he likes her and she kisses him back and I thought, they are finally together, yay :D However, since she was drunk, she forgot about it in the morning, uhh!!!!
Then when Ai Mi Li was going to tell him she likes him, he decided to fight with her and move out and I think it's because of his illness when he hit his head, so he does not want to hold her back or something, uhh!
I'm definitely fast forwarding the last 2 episodes......
EDIT 3: On ep 15 in the middle of it...... (26/4/19)
Ok I guessed, her mother actually cheated on her father and she finally patched up with her father and his new wife.
Other couples are finally together and they are so cute ^_^
The main leads are more and more frustrating! They should get together already! Hopefully, we'll see them together near the end.
For the bottle message part, the irony she wrote it when she got drunk in the reunion. Ok I so not expected this. When her high school friend was showing her a video about her being drunk and all, I thought that maybe she told him to write the bottle message since he had the bottle in his hand. But she wrote it hahaha. She did not even recognize her own writing hahahaha. Ok, I laughed really hard.
However, she threw in the ocean, and what are the chances to find it again? So we can say it was her fate or destiny to change her life. Anyway, she really wanted to change things and followed her own message. Well she actually thought it was cursed, but anyway she helped herself :D
EDIT 4: Finally finished! :D
We got to know the reverse part. She wanted to go back in time and change those moments when she chickened out and did not tell the truth that she actually liked Dou Ru. So although they couldn't change time, they told their true feeling to each other at that time and after 10 years, they got together :D
In general I liked it and enjoyed it :) Although I started to fast forward it early on in the drama and wanted the bottle message plot in a different way, I enjoyed this drama ^_^
I wish that the leads got together much early on, so we could see more lovely dovey moments or at least we could had a whole last episode, but at least we got a happy ending to the leads and the other couples :D
PS: I wanted to mention that I loved those scenes when they were watching a movie, and they were the ones in the movies, it was so hilarious xD
Finished! :D Loved it :D
I loved the story + the time loop part. It made the whole story interesting, hilarious, awesome, happy, at times sad, etc. It made me feel lots of emotions.
I also loved the parts in the story where they dealt with corruption in the company, work abuse, the treatment of the employees, about customers, etc and how the main leads and supporting cast helped to change their company for the better ^_^
Furthermore, I loved the main leads, they were so cute and adorable together + they had great chemistry :D Even though it took at the end of the drama for the leads to get officially together + we had no kiss scene (I really wanted a kiss scene!) I loved them.
Moreover, it changed the usual pattern of the leads getting together quickly. Here we got to see them go to many obstacles together + rejections, until finally they both realized that they need each other and cannot live without one other + they are perfect for each other :D
I also loved seeing the Baek Jin Sang grow and change for the better. He is a straight forward person, so others needed to be straight and honest to him too. It was thanks to Lee Do Ra who grabbed his collar of his coat (I laughed really hard at that scene xD) and made him think about his actions, how rude and harsh he was to others + people make mistakes all the time so there is no need to make them feel useless or a failure.
Ok, at the end when he became a director, he did not totally changed. However there is Lee Do Ra who keeps him in check and scolds him whenever he started to be rude and harsh to people again. I imagined him as a puppy at that moment, when Lee Do Ra scolded him, he was so cute lol :D
On the negative side: To be honest, in the middle of it, I got annoyed and started to fast forward it + I cried a lot and got sad when Lee Do Ra died.
However, I really loved the last 6 episodes and these got my full attention again. Here Baek Jin Sang got to change his mistakes + found out how the time loop started + saved the woman who had quit the marketing team because of him from the fire + he started the labour union which was awesome :D Also, helped those people who wanted revenge or end up in jail or down the wrong path for the better :D
Although, in real life we cannot change time or die multiple times like Baek Jin Sang to change the past :P , this drama gives a great messages in a hilarious way.
I believe it gives messages like: Live life to the fullest, do the right thing, help others if they need help, speak up if injustice is going on, help the weak, do not treat people badly because of their gender, race, background, status, money or power, etc. I'm sure you can come up with more :D
Another thing to be honest about is that I started this drama with no exceptions + I did not know what to watch + I only read the first sentence of the synopsis and I was really surprised that they turned an office drama into a supernatural story. Well, my fault for not reading it well ;P and I was actually in the mood for an office drama and got surprised with the time loop story which I loved and made this whole drama awesome and interesting :D
Anyway, for a short version, I loved this drama with an interesting time loop story + great chemistry between the leads + great acting from all cast + great characters + hilarious + got me to feel lots of emotions = worth a watch! :D Also, it wasn't perfect and got annoyed in the middle of it, but most of the drama was good, so I'll give it 8/10.
I loved Power Rangers as a child which are similar to the Japanese ones. Although I don't watch them anymore, I still love them. However, I mostly loved watching stories, movies, cartoons and anime + later on when I got older, I got into Asian dramas, watched more anime and read manga == my point is that I loved them as a child and got more obsessed with them that now I'm an adult :D
I found Nakamura very similar to me. I'm 22 years old. My obsession are stories which include movies (ex: Harry Potter, Marvel Movies, DC Movies, etc), series (ex: Merlin, Supergirl, etc), soap operas, cartoons and animated movies (ex: Disney, Dreamworks, Pixar, etc) for the American and European.
Also, Asian dramas and movies like Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, Thai, Chinese, Philippines and I need to watch more Hong Kong and Turkish dramas (I watched a few and liked them so I need to watch more :D). I love to watch anime and read manga :D I'm totally obsessed ^_^
Moreover, I also prefer staying at home watching rather than going out. I do love going out, but I do it once in a while and when I want to meet up with my friends. Even if I go out I mostly go to the movie theaters or go to eat in restaurants lol :D
Also, my mother did not understand my obsession in watching. Ok she did let me watch television as a kid after doing my homework + she did it to keep quiet since apparently I was annoying as a child :P However when I got into Asian dramas, many times she threatened to break my computer and then my laptop since I spend lots of time watching and did not understand why I loved them. However, I'm stubborn as a rock and at one point she accepted it :D Yay I won lol ^_^
Also, I am a kind of closet geek. The only ones I know most or are my closest friends know that I love to watch Asian dramas. People I know but I don't consider them my friends (like Damien said) or colleagues at work do not know that I love Asian dramas. I only tell them that I love movies and series from American or European ones, since most of the people in my country watch those. I did tell once and they looked at me like some alien.
Anyway, my point of all this is that since it's really similar to my situation, I loved this drama :D Ok in different ways, but very similar + I'm definitely watching movies, series, cartoons, animated movies, Asian dramas and movies, anime and manga for the rest of my life xD But not these only, I want to discover other countries movies or series. If I find them in english subs, I would watch for sure :D
PS: It's the first time I wrote more on myself rather than the drama lol. Anyway, this drama is short but sweet + awesome :D Definitely worth a watch :D
But then again my sister doesn't watch much. She doesn't even know about Disney animated movies, Marvel movies or most watched movies and I'm talking about the most popular ones :0
For some of my friends they also comment that they don't want to read subtitles or prefer to watch series or movies in English only, uhh!
Nice article :) It was short and fun to read :)
currently watching and on ep 8.....
I like this drama :D It's hilarious with sweet, cute and awesome chemistry between the leads ^_^ The other characters are nice and enjoyable to watch as well :)
I mostly love the parts where Han Se Gye changes into other persons for a week. It's the most interesting, hilarious and awesome parts :D Although at times it's sad because it makes her lonely and misunderstood by other people especially since she is an actress. Even her only two friends sometimes do not recognize her.
At least the main lead recognizes her even when she turns into a literally different person, which makes them so cute together ^_^
What I'm really curious about: 1 = What triggered her to change into a different person each time in the first place? 2 = Who are these people she changes to? 3= Although for her these people only exist for a week, do these people she changes into, exist?
I really hope I get some answers, and if I don't I'll probably end up disappointed. Anyway, we'll see.
For the rest, the parts about work related to the air line + useless conversations + the parents + the main actress of the SIX drama, Han Se Gye is acting in (she's annoying). These parts makes the drama feel draggy and boring and so I fast forward those parts.
I'm mostly watching for the supernatural parts, the leads' chemistry, interactions and dates + kisses ;D and the parts where Han Se Gye is acting :D
Also, I'm curious about the relationship between the future priest and Kang Sa Ra and hoe they will end up = I'm really shipping them + also I'm shipping the secretary of Seo Da Jae and Han Se Gye's manager. We'll see :)
Btw, Han Se Gye's dog is so cute and aborable <3
EDIT:
Finished! I liked it :D
Although I got a bit disappointed, that we don't know why she changes, it's was still interesting to watch + she got to help people when she changed. The ex-priest and Sa Ra got together, yay :D But the secretary and manager did not, it's a shame as she had a boyfriend and was going to get married.
I also liked all the cast and characters, they all did a good job :D I also loved how the 3 main women in this drama were all sassy, strong and awesome :D
Although I liked it there were times that feel long, boring or too dramatic and I had to fast forward, but generally I liked it :)
Definitely worth a watch ^_^ Her dog is so cute and adorable <3
