What, really??? You've read this?
Why don't you write a comment in my blog, so?
I can't know without that.
I guess you recognize your audience experience in these memes.
lol, I watched this drama twice. know that: I do a serious work! 😂

I don't like to be painful, so I'm critical in a comical way. 😂

I couldn't help but took a peek into your PTW list... that's not long! LOL... I made a custom PTW list started 2020 and I had 300+ titles and they're all completed dramas. It took me 4 years to clear it up. I saw other MDLers have even 1000s. I refuse to be recommended, but making articles like this help me to look for dramas I want to watch if I have none to watch in a day.

Yeah, for sure. The writers came up with such a good idea but any other non-main characters just lack depth, it's a shame.

It's my first time discussing an ongoing drama, I'm always too late by a few months-years to jump in and enjoy with the early folks, it's fun :D

You've just started watching Asian dramas last year? Congrats, you have fallen into the rabbit hole of Asian dramaland, lol! Can't come back, you're just going deeper. What is your first drama?

How is it that someone at one point wanted you dead, would literally tell you to kill yourself by giving you poison, and the next time, they act like it was nothing much? (Jin star)
Because they got what they wanted, and suddenly they will become the most normal person.
That would never happen in real life though, usually who wants you dead would still keep wanting you dead no matter what like the actual villain.
Yes his demon was gonna die but still no normal person would give someone poison to kill themselves like this, evil people can do that, then show that they are evil , why make them good people suddenly ?

I'd seen him in my roommate is a gumiho, he is cast as a guy in college who is a player that all the girls have a crush on, but his second male lead storyline is so heartbreaking.

With the drama cheer up where he plays like a head cheerleader, it really seemed like a role absolutely made for him, I can't imagine anybody else filling it as well as he did.

I know I saw him in kiss goblin, but it was a long time ago and I remember not liking his character but not why 🤷

It seems like his popularity is on the rise so I bet he gets cast in a lot more things coming up.

Thank you so much for reading through all my questions and responding! I was surprised that the grandfather didn't show up in the past as such a strong figure like he did in the future. also It feels like his punishment was light compared to what he did. to be stuck in a state of euphoria no matter the terrible things he did, doesn't sound that bad. Though in that last scene with his grandfather it was one of my favorite parts of Bae In Hyuk's acting.

Some of you say that this show changes the perception of life etc and I felt it too, but it makes me wonder... Some people are not lucky enough to have loving parents/spouse. This show basically emphasizes that the only thing that should keep you alive at bad times is fear of hurting others. It emphasizes that we live only for others and because of others. But what about ourselves? It completely misses the topics of self love, self worth or that we should enjoy life also for ourselves... The conclusion may be that if you have no one close to cry for you then you can kill yourself. Basically the whole plot of the series exists because of the mother and the girlfriend. What if no one cried for the ML?

The case of suicides here just show people that felt despair after losing everything, they committed suicide on the spur of the moment, they wouldn't have committed suicide if they got/kept their job and family/lovers. They were not suicidal people before that, BUT it's not everybody's case, there are also suicidal people that have everything they want in life job/money/love , some that are sick or depressed for years, etc.. I hate that they show it like something easily avoidable, like just work harder you selfish brat.

Don't kill yourself because you're going to make the people who love you sad! Gotcha! ✍🧏‍♀️ (the implication being that it's otherwise okay to kill yourself if you have no one lmao). Well, I guess it's an okay series despite the dubious life lessons and Death's edginess 🤷‍♀️ Dubious because... probably everyone who suicides thinks about their loved ones but their pain is so insufferable that they do it anyway? And then you have to suffer again a bunch of times to learn to love life as if it was so simple

Yeah... The only thing that kinda comforts me about all that 10-year contract thing is that in early episodes Gu Woon showed Do Hee how it works in general and how it is not simply "black and white" with a contract in the hospital with the mother for her baby's recovery. So she might be more understanding. But it is still her parents... sooooo... yeah...

Yea, after episode 5 it went downhill rapidly. That episode 6 was like those countless crime dramas about corruption and chaebols with over the top acting and resolutions. Very meh.
The last two episodes were drilling on the same message but it was all wrong. The only insightful part was about that suicidal salary man - it showed ML the dream he so desperately wanted to have, the one the government and society kept on brainwashing him with. But they never delved anywhere further with that. Instead of guilt shaming ML with his mother they should have explored what ML really wanted in life, how can he be true to himself. Is being a cog in an uncaring corporate machine what people really should strive for in life? Just such a waste of potential here.
But as it is, this drama resolves none of the problems SK's society has, it just tries to guilt shame through religion and societal dogmas.
As for the characters in this drama the ending invalidated everything ML did in other people’s bodies and all those who were supposed to die will die and all the bad guys will still be walking scott free.

Trigger warning: suicide

Don't get me completely wrong, I enjoyed this as a fiction piece. But I think the way they portray suicide is complete bullshit and it's undoing the good job that shows like "Daily Dose of Sunshine" did regarding mental health awareness.

Suicide isn't as simple as making a conscious and rational choice it's the very real end to a very real disease, which is depression. I felt like the show takes this lightly (beautiful image about self-worth and how you matter and are unique and life is supposed to be treasured aside), putting the main character on trial for ending his life. Humans have quite a strong survival instinct built into us; bypassing that isn't easy nor do you do bypass it when your mind is sound and healthy.

Yeah that part pissed me off. You don't blame sick people for being sick or for dying because they are sick. Portraying the character as selfish and uncaring is awful.

That said, the show in itself was entertaining so I tried to not think about the fact he was being punished because he was sick.

There was no reaction from Gu Won when he saw a family photo in the 11 episode. So it seems he doesn't remember them all (there are a lot of clocks in his office). Also, if he does remember (and now with human emotions) and he still didn't tell Do Hee about it, it makes him an enormous asshole.
