Reviews
Rundown of good and bad: I liked the animated segments. I didn't quite get the exact parallels between them and the main character's real life at times, but maybe I'm just slow, haha. They didn't do a very good job of explaining why the relationship of the two leads wasn't working at the beginning, so it helped that the stakes were higher because of the "death wish" conditions. Otherwise I would not have cared if they got together or not. However, the "death wish" idea was pretty imaginative and propelled the story forward quite well.
The acting is good; the music is fine, but was mostly notable to me because it really, really reminded me of something and it finally came to me. The main song they used in this drama special is also present in a slightly reworked version in Ojakgyo Brothers, which was also on KBS just a year later.
Anyway, this is a quirky little drama special and I'm glad I finally got around to watching it.
