Something about her notebook inspires Tian to take up Torfun's position at the school himself.

really good start

I have seen two edits and its the one of them in the water and the one where tian and the dead girl are staring at each other and miss wanna die is playing. The first two ratings are 10's so I have pretty high hopes for this show, despite me not knowing about anything in the show. Okay bye!

A complete rundown of the first episode

I have allot to say, so here come the spoilers if you have not seen this episode beware!Okay, I was a bit critical and skeptical about this series but decided to give it a try .


The first episode really made me laugh. I do find the ML relatable he has been sick for years and is giving life a big FU I'm gonna die anyway. I totally get him, and am on his side!


Then it becomes really funny, though he has been sick for years he is all of a sudden in desperat need of a heart. Oh the drama! He was perfectly fine one moment and then boom give him a haert stat! There is no match on the list, I'm sorry what! Ofcorse they wont have a heart stat. But the list in most countries (I hope) go by best match most ergent so the whole concept of cutting in line is a bit iffy but okay. For the plots sake I'm just going to find this humorus.



Not only that when he wakes upp he has litterly no tubes, he is not swollen att all , there is not even a machene that goes beep. And he looks like he is ready for the runway. Nice to look att but defenetly not close to reality. Yet 5 months later his fisical condition sill bad, even though he was active upp to the transplant (his muscles hadent detereated). This ofcorse assuming the timeline won't be expanded in the following episodes.


I did love his attitude and his reaction to the questions he got questions that are spot on and the reason I was skeptical to this drama. The parants attitude show the pressure and quilt put on transplantees to live well and desurve their second chance reminding them that unlike people who are healthy they are not allowed to take their life for granted. Oh the pressure. However this drama does cater to the annoying question hearttransplantees often get (oddly enough mostly hearttransplantees and not livertransplantees or other organs, yes I know its because the heart is oftenspoken of as the window to our souland what not) since he dreams of the previous owner. I also felt like yelling dude, you have literally almost no immune system get out of that smokey place with all those people.



But back to some funny plotholes. To keep the heart he is going to have to take meds that lower his immunesystem the bag he takes with him for his trip wont fit all the meds he needs for more then a couple of weeks + some underwear, so where are his meds??? that enviorment is really dangerous for someone who has a lack of immunesystem especially during the first year after a hearttransplant.


I did however love the two ML, and I'm assuming he fainted out of attraction and not because of his heart. That was actually really funny. With the knowledge I have now I feel really sorry for him, what ever his parents did its not his fault.

Strong and Promising

SPOILERS for this episode (ofc)You can clearly see that money was but into this. I liked the hook at the beginning. Some great shots. All the character where shown and the story is progressing nicely. My favorite part was when the main character was reading the heart donor's diary. There where shots about him drinking and cabling with his friends while the heart donor was teaching the children etc. It's was a nice contrast. And after that you can see him looking around the room all gloomy like he now saw his life differently. Maybe feeling like he had been living life all wrong? And then him looking at the mirror with the diary. No word where sad, but you knew what he was going to do. This made me to REALLY look forward to the self grow tag. Not so sure about the romance yet tho...

História cativante.

O primeiro episódio foi uma ótima apresentação, já gostei dos personagens, gostei do enredo que não se demorou muito na decisão dele de ir a aldeia, o tempo da história parece um pouco rápido de mais as vezes, mas isso não tira o legal. Estou ansiosa para o ep 2.

Way worth it

I was hesitant to start this series because I had a feeling I wouldn’t enjoy it. I was very wrong. I loved the acting, cinematography, the script etc.I loved the meaningful messages throughout the first episode. It’s only episode 1, so it’s to early to say but I think this will be one of my favourites.

Last scene is fantastic

When Earth catches Tian at the end of episode 1, it's fantastic. I look forward to watching the remainder of episodes.

A very strong start

Damn, when I first heard about this series I didn't pay it much mind for soms reason, it honestly didn't grab my attention that much. However, because of the many positive reactions towards the first episode I decided to give it a try and so far, this has started off really strong. I don't wanna get ahead of myself tho because we all know what happened to almost every good gmmtv series after a while so I'll wait and see how it all plays out.Also, just wanna add that I really loved the soundtracks on this so far, the music is very soothing.

Its an introduction

The first episode is basically an introduction to the characters, plot, and setting. This is a good thing. The last 15 minutes finally start the drama. Very good episode.

1000 stars ep1

It was a very good episode. Did a nice setup of the story. I love how they teases some of the fated stuff but not overly done. Can't wait to see more.
