Wasted Potential and Unnecessary Angst
I honestly believe most of the drama between the main couple in Reloved could have been cleared up by around episode 4. That would have given us more time to actually enjoy them being together—having cute couple moments, going on little dates, and especially spending time with the niece and nephew. Those family scenes were some of the sweetest parts of the show, and it would’ve been nice to see more of that domestic side of their relationship. But as usual, communication barely existed, and misunderstandings were dragged out longer than necessary just to create drama.I waited until all the episodes were finished, including the special episode, before continuing, hoping the full story would feel more complete. Unfortunately, the second lead couple’s storyline ended up being one of the biggest disappointments for me. They went through so much grief, pain, and emotional suffering, only for him to suddenly come back. Having everyone mourn him, just for it to be undone later, made all that heartbreak feel pointless and unnecessary.
What made it worse was that they never properly explained how or why he faked his death. There was no clear reasoning, no detailed backstory, and no satisfying emotional resolution. If they were going to include something that dramatic, they could’ve at least connected it to corruption within the company or had him trying to expose the other CEO for sabotaging the business. That would have made his disappearance meaningful—like he sacrificed himself to gather evidence, protect the company, or bring someone to justice. It would’ve raised the stakes and made his return impactful. Instead, it just felt random and disconnected from the main plot, like it was only done for shock value.
This series had a lot of potential, but the pacing, lack of communication, and poor handling of the second lead couple really hurt the experience for me.
Overall Rating: 4/10

The Soundtrack Saved the Story, and I’m Not Mad About It
I absolutely LOVED Glass Heart! It’s a full 9/10 from me. The plot did get a little messy at times, but honestly, the AMAZING MUSIC made up for it. Every song, every performance, every little melody just pulled me right in. As a total music junkie, this show had me hooked from the very first episode.The musicality was insane — like, genuinely top-tier. You can tell everyone involved knew what they were doing. And yes, the fact that all the actors are super good-looking definitely didn’t hurt either 😅 It just made the whole experience even more fun to watch.
Now… my only real complaint is the romance subplot. I don’t think it was really needed. I went in thinking the relationship between Sajio Akane and Fujitani Naoki would be this wholesome mentor-mentee thing, but it got weird fast. Their chemistry didn’t really land for me — honestly, Naoki had way better chemistry with the guitarist Takaoka Sho (just saying 👀).
Still, despite the messy story moments, Glass Heart completely won me over. The music, the energy, the cast — it all just worked. Honestly, a good rewatch for the music and performances, not the storyline though in my opinion 🤷🏾♀️.

A Beautiful, Healing Masterpiece That Stays With You Forever
Move to Heaven is honestly one of the most amazing dramas I have ever watched. From the storyline to the acting, to the emotional depth—everything about this show was executed perfectly.The storyline was incredible and unlike anything I’ve seen before. The concept of trauma cleaners—people who clean up after the deceased and help tell the stories they left behind—was so unique and meaningful. Every episode told a different story, and each one carried its own message about love, loss, regret, and healing. It wasn’t just about death, but about the lives people lived and the emotions they couldn’t express while they were still here. The way the show connected all these stories while also developing the main characters was beautiful.
The acting was absolutely amazing. The emotions felt so real and raw. Nothing felt forced or exaggerated—it felt genuine. You could feel the pain, the love, the confusion, and the growth in every scene. The actors did such an incredible job of making you understand their characters and empathize with them.
OMG, I truly loved this show through and through. I cried during every single episode. Each story touched my heart in a different way. Watching them carefully pack the belongings and uncover the final memories people left behind was both heartbreaking and comforting at the same time.
This show hit especially close to home for me because I am also trying to come to terms with a close family member passing. It made me reflect on grief in a different way. It reminded me that grief doesn’t just disappear—it stays with you, but you learn how to carry it. It also reminded me how important it is to express love while people are still here, because sometimes things are left unsaid.
What I loved most was how healing this drama felt. It didn’t just focus on sadness, but also on closure, understanding, and moving forward. It showed that even in death, there is still a story worth telling and memories worth protecting.
This wasn’t just a show for entertainment. It felt like an experience. It teaches empathy, compassion, and appreciation for life in a way that stays with you even after you finish it.
This is truly a masterpiece that I would recommend to everyone.
