satalasers Hm, Some good, some bad.
- I'm mostly negative about the main love story? I didn't like them! I didn't want them to end up together! I felt like that's where most of my unhappiness with the storyline came from, tbh. It just kind of felt with a lot of scenes I was watching a father and his daughter, and that's... not what you want to see when they're actually falling in love.
- Also, oh man, Kim Shin was often unbearable. He looked very good as a general, and being contemplative, but when he was his most whiny and cheeky, I. I kind of hated him?
- Eun Tak was okay. Maybe she was too cutesy, IDK. I did enjoy her friendship with Sunny and the Grim Reaper, though. I liked how gradual it was. Though I hated Eun Tak's family so much, and I didn't need the ghost of her aunt to come back and return, TBH.
- Sunny and Wang Yeo stole the fucking show from everyone else completely. I just fell for their love story, and rooted for them, and they broke my heart countless times, and I adored them.
- So, basically, I just loved the Grim Reaper/Wang Yeo. I loved his lack of answers and awkwardness, and his gradual adjusting to people, but also, constantly saying the wrong things when he's trying to impress Sunny, but constantly just messing up, but he's so cute she puts up with it anyway. I loved the history of the ring, and how even though the Grim Reaper can't remember his past, the feelings remain, so the first time they meet, he cries, and I have to say? That actor is a fantastic crier. I felt so bad for his character, and how pitiful he was, but you totally understand how bitter and empty he can become in his first life, and how he gradually softens towards people. I definitely want to see his actor as a villain at some point, though.
- But I also just liked Sunny, who was kind and sassy, and less ditzy than you'd think. I kind wish she hadn't been so sidelined, but I also, enjoyed what they did with her, and how she's the reincarnation of Kim Shin's sister. How she put up with the Grim Reaper when he avoids answering her and tries to cast spells on her to forget is incredible, TBH, even though it costs him dearly.
- And I am so, so glad they got a chance to be together in the next time line. (With the same face, too. Since that's not a given!)
- I actually really enjoyed the Grim Reaper and Kim Shin friendship? I liked that they were roommates who disliked each other, then sort of bonded because of their girl problems, and then became actual friends (and the Grim Reaper *realizing* that they were actual friends!) and then fell out kind of because of the past that Wang Yeo had forgotten. It was just great! They had really wonderful comedic timing.
- This was so beautifully shot, like some moments were gorgeous to look at.
- The music was fantastic. I will definitely be relistening to it.
- I wish I could have loved the villain, but there wasn't enough of him, TBH! He just. Entered too late and got dealt with too quickly, IMO.
- I did find the grim reapers and their hats, and their bureaucracy adorable though, as they just hung out together while they waited for death. I liked the scenes of people going to the next life.
- I'm so sad that Yoo Duk Hwa didn't do much! I really like the actor, and he got so so underused, it's a shame!
7.5/10. It's just the main storyline that brings it down, TBH. Everything else I actually really liked, it turns out.
