How did I manage to endure this drama until ep 12?
To begin with, I should have given up on this drama from the start.I don't know how I endured so much.
The story is average, I don't know if I could watch a drama like this, even if it was well-structured, something that doesn't happen in this drama.
About the actors, not to say the least, let's say that the beauty of the actors goes beyond their performance.
The main couple has no chemistry at all!
The music is forgettable, there's not a single moment that stood out to me because of the music.
I wouldn't feel excited to rewatch something I didn't like.
Now for those who were curious as to why I dropped out in episode 12, here are the spoilers:
Go Se Yun's shamelessness is unbelievable.
How can she say in ep 12 that in this 20-year friendship, despite him having tried numerous times to be with her, she rejected it, but later regretted it. What a lame excuse she made...
She rejected him because he was ugly in her eyes, so she preferred not to lose her 20-year friendship over him.
Sure enough, after he turns into an extremely handsome person, she can't help but try to hit on him. This was too much for me, and I gave up watching it.
Abyss and the beauty-obsessed culture.

CHA-MIN!
This series not only is funny, romantic, and tragic.. but it is also so entertaining. The bad reviews i think are seeing it the wrong way. About Cha-Min.. his previous body was a nice, overly caring, funny, quirky dude and when he transitioned into his soul body he had to keep that personality as the only thing that has changed was his appearance. I think he did it perfectly and people are taking his characters quirkiness as "bad acting" if you have watched more of hyo-seop series you would know his acting is perfect. In all i think this series is such a perfect kdrama for thoes looking for series that has love, comedy, and quirk.Was this review helpful to you?

TLDR, I personally really liked the drama and would recommend it to others if they are willing to persevere through the first episode.

There was nothing to over the top. It was well scripted and clearly written by someone intelligent and sentimental. It exposed the internal and external looks and struggles. Lots of action too with a well done ending.

I just finished watching this drama and of course it made me cry. I loved their chemistry and how their romance grew slowly. I didn't really like how the first main character image are portrayed because I feel like there's no point for the main character to have that certain look because they didn't even use him in the end. We can still call ourselves ugly even though we may be beautiful on the inside or outside. But idkk. The song is AMAZING. Especially Fallin by Kim Feel. Hopefully I don't cry randomly whenever I hear that song. I also like how its a two kind of romance-ce. The romance between the detective/policeguy (forgot his name) (FROM REPLY 1997<3) AND the real min-do this drama wasn't the best but was a good choice watching it. Learned life lessons and consequences. Hope to see more of Ahn so yeop drama and OFcourse my Park BO YOUNG♥️♥️ THe second episode truly made my cry because of the preview. Like, they really gave us that preview to have a cliff in our mind. That we need to watch it ASAP to understand why seyeon is crying and why he ---spoiler----Died. His death is truly devastating but the thing that I really don't understand is him coming back. I wanna know more how he came back. They showed but it doesn't make sense. That old man.. Need more part so the viewer can understand his point. But overall, I like it. 7/4/19 2:42am <3

save me from misery park boyoung
my GOODNESS am I disappointed,,I have a small goal to watch most of park boyoung's works so that was why I started this, and I will say that the premise did intrigue me, and the first 3 or so episodes were good, but it lost its charm very quickly
and the acting is atrocious,, I don't know what it is but the two leads really do carry the show,, I don't often drop shows, I don't want to make that a thing I do but it's been almost 3 months and I only just finished episode 7...
all I have to say is that I do love park boyoung, her work is some of my favorite, but sadly not this time,, I do not have the time to care about or put myself through an "old" serial killer with long hair, no thanks

Some may like it, others may not.
I thought the beginning of this drama was very original and worth checking out. However, I just felt like the acting kept disappointing. I'm not sure why but half way through and Park Bo Young has gotten annoying with how she portrays her character. In some scenes she does okay. Others might disagree and that's fine. I enjoyed her acting in other works but not this one. The plot is good and I wish I could enjoy it more. However, I find myself wanting to stop watching. I've never given up on a kdrama before but this might be the first one. I want to give it a fighting chance so I'll try to hold out and see if my thoughts change.Was this review helpful to you?
Boring storyline
"Abyss" had an interesting concept, but I found it quite boring overall. while the actors did a great job, the storyline didn't grab my attention and felt too slow. It lacked the excitement and spark I was hoping for. I eventually stopped watching because it just wasn't interesting enough to keep me invested.Was this review helpful to you?
Must watch very well written
I was about to drop it because of reviews but then i gave it a try. And i am amazed this is such a well writte drama and very interesting.. loved it.. but i have only one issue why would they call a goddess like pby ugly? She is the most beautiful woman. Plus han sohee also god ugly when she was awake from death. She just showed her ugly face for 2 mins and after that she was same again lol. Only pby has confidence to present herself according to the script. That lady is a legend love her. Plus ahn hyo seop is hansome. And thank God it does not have any cringe content or cringe scenes like other k dramas. Humour was also at the right amount.Was this review helpful to you?
...
the production was good, I can't complain .I also say that the performance was incredible, it would be a sin if I complained.
I love the actors, I loved the characters.
Of course, not everything is perfect, I can't lie, but what a drama that doesn't have a single flaw.
So in conclusion, I recommend...
I say it's worth watching, maybe it's bad for some, but for me it was good.
This is just my opinion, you better watch it and have your own opinion.
I don't know what to say, because I think everyone has their own opinion.
