Took me a while to get to watch this continuation after Two Worlds, but I finally managed to do it now. And I have to say that it's amazing.

The movie picked up after the loose ends left from Two Worlds, after Jahong was ascended and then the fate of his dead brother remained to be seen. For a second I had to wonder what was the connection with the other assignment given to Ganglim and his team aside from the matter regarding Kim Suhong but it turned out that everything still connected in an intricate way! It's really amazing, the writing that is.

We get to find out more about Ganglim, Hewonmaek and Dukcheon's past lives and how it turned out that it wasn't a coincidence that the trio was paired together. We also get to find out the circumstances of their deaths and how it leads the trio to become grim reapers and having to guide the souls of the dead in order to absolve their sins and allow them to reincarnate. And it turned out, the complicated circumstances of Ganglim's past life had also a connection with Kim Suhong's judgement. Loved the amazing writing, and how much the story in Two World and The Last 49 days seamlessly interconnected. It felt like it was also no coincidence that Ganglim's team was assigned to handle Kim Jahong's case and later on with Kim Suhong.

That aside, I have to say that the final reveal about King Yeomra just add the final touch on how the writing of everything been done well. It explained a lot on why King Yeomra have had quite a lot of interest in Ganglim in particular and why they seem to have a special relationship.

I really enjoyed the movie throughout. And while the movie's serious plot had been engaging enough, I love the fact that the comedy in between was still so amusing. Had to say that Ganglim, Hewonmaek and Dukcheon really had grown on me.
