Depressing subject but Masterfully Executed
This is the first drama I’ve watched that I would term “important”. Tomorrow is important. It is an episodic drama based around the subject of suicide. It is sad, I won’t lie. The Korean War veteran episode had me crying ten minutes in until the very end……sobbing.
The story follows Choi Joon Woong, played by Rowoon, who in doing a good deed, ends up in a coma and the new volunteer with the Grim Reapers Crisis Management Team. The team consists of Goo Ryun and Im Ryung Goo portrayed brilliantly by Kim Hee Sun and Yun Ji On. Those two were amazing and their back stories destroyed me.
Lee Soo Hyuk is the conflicted Grim Reaper Park Joong Gil and Kim Hae Sook plays the head honcho, Jade Emperor. Again, amazing amazing amazing. I was never bored when either of these characters were on the screen. Park Joong Gil definitely is a character we can love to hate then love again.
Each episode is a new character pushed to the brink of suicide. Each story is relatable and painful. They do have comic relief in each show so the viewer doesn’t need medication to survive the show.
In the first episode, the Jade Emperor advises the Grim Reapers that South Korea’s suicide rate is extremely high. Actually, it is very high. For a country with the resources it has, it is rather surprising. This show calls attention to some of the reasons behind that ridiculously high rate. THIS IS WHY TOMORROW IS IMPORTANT.
And if you need some eye candy, all the grim reapers are just plain…..pretty.
The soundtrack is well done. The story was well done. The acting was well done. I will NEVER watch this show again.
Really, please watch it. One episode a week should work. I managed once every 2 or so days. There are many that would benefit from watching this show and I have never said this about a drama……ever.
