I have mixed feelings!
Honestly, I started watching this drama because of Park Eun Bin, who has like 30 minute screen time overall?🤣 But I have to be honest. The first couple of episodes were hard to watch, also the makeup for the hair and beards were terrible most of the time and I couldn't focus on the story because of that. I don't know why no one cared about the fake hair and beard on the male characters, but maybe there's a reason for that. After like 30 episode or so, these fantastic actors made me forget every bad thing about this show. It's far from perfect, but overall I think I will watch it again one day when I want to be sad again. I really don't know what the hell is wrong with me, why I love so much shows with sad endings.😂I don't really know how to describe what Lee Yo Won, Go Hyun Jung, Kim Nam Gil and Uhm Tae Woong did on this show! All of them are exceptional actors. Also, the music, Jesus Christ! Every time I heard: "Step by step" and "Come people of God" just made me cry, honestly.

You need to use the right ingredients for a food, and it was missing from this drama!
Everything started out good, until the cancer plot! The writer ruined the whole show with that storyline. Why? Well, because it doesn't make sense at all. She said, they removed 70% of her stomach, but we have never seen her struggling with her illness more than once, and that was all about a stupid love triangle as well! I'm pretty sure we've seen her eating food that she shouldn't eat. Anyway, it wasn't realistic.
Their chemistry was great as friends, but after they became a couple, it was awkward most of the time. When they were bickering, it was fun, but all the unnecessary drama was frustrating.
For me, the secondary couple was 10 times better! It was more realistic and original.
The story with the parents was also madness, but sometimes, it was really fun, until they included Alzheimer storyline, and they didn't do anything with that either.
This show don't deserve a high rating, because it feels like the writer wanted to do so many things, but other than the romance plot, she didn't finish anything else.
EVERYONE in this show is CRAZY and an IDIOT! The only character with a functional brain is the little girl.
I want to mention this, because the main plot is basically the romance. All of these characters are 30+ year olds, yet, they're still acting like teens. I usually don't care about these things, but the kissing scenes were boring, so to speak. I don't even know if we can call those real kissing scenes.
Most of the time, the writing was over the top, and too much!
So yeah, it was a disappointment, BUT if you don't think about the plot too much, it's a fun show, but forgettable.
If you watched one romance Kdrama, they won't surprise you. I knew what's gonna happen from miles away. One of the most predictable show.

Another Kdrama with a soulless ending!
I honestly don't know when will Kdrama writers gonna realize what they're doing for years, is not good!Some of the best shows has the worst ending, and "See You in My 19th Life" is just another example!
The main plot isn't new or extraordinary, we've seen shows like this many times, but it was still interesting, and fun. It was well-written, till the last 2 episodes!
I don't want to go into details, because I don't see the point, but the most disappointing parts of the story are these:
1. They didn't do much with the past lives plot, she was struggling who she should tell the truth for a long time, yet she basically told everyone, except her own mother!
2. The worst part of the story is probably the Minki guy. He came from nowhere, he was like the all-knowing guy, yet we didn't get a single explanation why or how he knows these things, we just had to accept what he says. I mean, where's the proof that Jieum had to forget all of her past lives to save everyone else? That was THE DUMBEST plot EVER! Lazy writing 101!
3. The pacing of the story. It wasn't really stretched or anything, but I still felt, we hardly get anything from the story. The last 2 episode were just bad! I think, they realized they made a mistake, so they fixed everything in 5 seconds, basically.
Other than these, I think this show is pretty good, and enjoyable! The actors did a great job, but sadly, this is just another average fantasy show with a massive potential.
Another overrated Kdrama, but I'm not surprised. Most show here are overrated. Kdrama fans don't like to give low scores.

This is like the beta version of 2521 and Strong Girl Bong Soon!
I tried, just like the writers, but I failed, just like them!I couldn't watch more than 1.5 episode! I watched some really bad Kdramas over the years, and I only finished those, because I loved the actors. Well, this show doesn't have anyone who force me to watch it till the end.
The sport aspect was boring, unlike in 2521, the female lead is not likable or interesting like Bong Soon or Hui Do.
I didn't find anything captivating in this show, IT LACKS THE CHARM, it feels forced, and after 2 episodes, I can already see how it's gonna end. It's better if I don't waste my time.
Overrated drama, for sure!
