Just stop watching after the first half of ep. 11 and you're good!
I really loved this drama. I was rooting for the main lead and I was crying with them - a lot.I still couldn't understand why Baek Sa-eon was being such a jerk to her at the beginning, but I could look over that because overall I was just sucked into the show.
I was ready to call it one of my favourite dramas until it suddenly all went south after the second half of the 11th episode. The show strayed away from all logic, brushing over first-time-mentioned topics and didn't care to really explain how things got to happen - but even if they did, I couldn't care less. Because it wouldn't make sense either way.
I was almost ready to drop the drama at this point because I thought it was a 16-episode show, and if that was the direction the drama would continue with, I couldn't finish. After I found out it's only 12 episodes, I watched it until the end, and I can definitely tell, that it was not worth it.
I'm a little shocked by how easily the last 1h 30min could overshadow everything that happened before and ruin the overall image I have about the drama... In the end I decided not to include the last hour of what-the-heck into my rating and just look at the drama as an 11 episode piece.
I would definitely recommend watching it, but I would just keep in mind, that the last episode does nothing for the viewer.

There were just too many weird decisions that were obviously wrong which lead to tragic outcomes that could've easily been avoided, which annoyed me while watching.
Besides that, I loved the Idea and the execution of their superpowers, and I was constantly crying for Ina ㅜㅜ
I would recommend :)

Great idea, poor execution
While I was very hooked, and sure this could become one of my favourite dramas, it ended weak, making me hope for it to finally end while watching the last 4 episodes.The first 10 episodes were amazing, but it could have ended right there.
While the story was impactful and it was a heartwrenching experience, getting to know the devestating fate of terminally sick patients, all of this was overshadowed by the main focus of the murder mystery, which got repetitive very quickly.
The show was aware, making one of the character say themselves, that everything keeps repeating over and over, but after a while it got tiring.
The acting was great. My favourite was the main male lead, who could perfectly express the emotions and the personality (including the trauma) into his facial expressions.
Overall, it was a very good idea that has been executed poorly.
It reminded me of "Hi, Bye Mama" which also talks about death and the stories of many different side characters, but has much better execution.
