I'm grateful that they did continue this series for another season, but. BUT. I felt as if I had to force myself to watch the rest of it. I was pausing in between episodes because I got tired of having to finish it. All in all it's a great show, but be warned.

First off, what I didn't know until I was halfway into this drama, was that this was 2 Moons 2, and not the first one. I had no clue that this was a remake of the first one and I shall watch that one. Okay, now down to it. First of all, all of the couples are absolutely cute and are goals. BUT. But it felt a tad bit unrealistic. My reasons:
The chances of two people liking each other at the same time, not uncommon but not common either. I felt Wayo and Phana's relationship was a bit too easy. What I mean is that even though it took them 5 episodes for them to get together, it felt too easy.
The other couples were cute and the only semi-realistic one was Ming and Kit. They were at a kind of odds at first, and Kit was a bit hesitant on the matter, it was cute. It seemed like something that could happen.
Beam and Fourth's relationship is a big trope in the drama world. Their relationship started like Korn and Knock's seen in Together With Me, Sandee and Thada's in Kiss: The Series, and probably many more. Afterward it was cute and could happen.
My last thing to add to this is that they say they love each other too frequently that I felt it lost its meaning. I feel like love comes after you're with a person and definitely not before. All of the couples in this said they loved each other before they were with each other and it annoyed the hell out of me. All in all I'd say it's adorable and watch it at your own discretion, but it's definitely worth the watch besides my complaints.

It was AMAZING but the ending...
I finally watched the end of Big Mouth. Every twist and turn got me and the rush of everything. But the ending just did Park Changho dirty. Maybe it was a consequence of everything whether what he did was good or bad, but I was expecting actual justice but no. They had to kill Ko Miho off and make him stay being Big Mouse. I get it, it wasn't a romance drama, but after everything Changho endured, they could have let him be happy and have justice. Or how Choi Doha was killed just didn't feel like justice. I really wanted the satisfaction of justice like I felt watching Itaewon Class (completely different drama to this but the justice felt sweet, lil pun there.) It was completely rushed and I didn't like the epilogue style of "he got this company or she was rescued from the psychiatric hospital."But all in all I think this is the best role Lee Jong Suk has done to date. The mafia boss is a good look on him.

It was definitely cute and light-hearted.
I just finished this and I truly enjoyed this drama. The main couple is very cute and wholesome, but I preferred the second couple and their dynamic. I'm a sucker for a hate to love. Well more like can't stand the other to love. Mark and Ou Wen definitely deserve their own series for sure. I also enjoyed the side story of the couple the agency helped, that was also very cute. I didn't expect to see a long storyline for it, but I liked that they did add it in.All in all I will say this is one of the few dramas I have binged in while and it was kind of worth it. The ending to me was ehh, but it does give an important lesson about love and marriage that I loved.

It's a drama about love, loss, and epic fights!!
I just finished this drama and I am not the same, nor will I ever be. I thought going into this that it was similar to the drama Black, about grim reapers and stuff like that, and I didn't like Black. I couldn't stand how slow Black started and continued to be.This, however, was never dull. Not one dull moment. It's action packed, funny, and sad in all the right places. I cannot recommend this enough!! It deserves so much and more for how much love I have for this. I do wish there were a few romantic moments here and there, but at the same time, it does so well without it.
There is a page about it getting a season 2. I don't know if that is true, but I don't think it could continue on to a season 2, like other dramas could. There isn't really a cliffhanger for there to be a season 2, but we shall find out. That being said, I must say it is now one of my favorite dramas of all time.

DON'T READ IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS!!!I have so much love for this drama you have no clue (And I finished it in a day). BUT, there are moments I wanted to tear my hair out. Ok, at the beginning when Hai Qing saves Yan Fei from drowning , Yan Fei kisses him for it?? They never met before, Yan Fei also has a boyfriend.... what? Like, Hai Qing didn't even tell him his name and Yan Fei didn't ask him to go out for saving him. It was I see you, I'm going to corner you, I'm going to make out with you, then say thank you, then ask for your name and give you my number, but never give his own.
There was also the fact that the moment this happens his phone was thrown into the pool, and every chance they got to almost seeing each other again was a near miss, by a minute at least.
Also, that after they meet again, Yan Fei immediately starts acting like his lover. Immediately. Then at the office when Yan Fei saw Hai Qing, he didn't even hesitate. He grabbed him, and went to the stairs, and made out with him. Then after that they have sex. Like WTF.
Don't get me wrong, them as a couple is cute. But the fact that right after they do it, Yan Fei tells Hai Qing that he loves him. HUH? I just find that in these dramas, some of them toss around the meaning of love like candy.
Now the ending. Oh lord, the ending. Ping Jun breaks up with Hai Qing, because he realizes that they can't be happy together anymore, and I believe that was a smart decision, one he should've made 2-3 episodes before. Hai Qing "moves" into Yan Fei's home for a bit, and then leaves for the States right after. Like what?
I mean I get he didn't really think through his father's proposition, but the amount of time he spent getting into college, and now finally being able to be with Yan Fei without complications, he's like f*** it, I'm going to go study in America for 3 years, and gives Ping Jun a postcard that tells him to be happy, while we get a scene where Yan Fei looks so sad sitting alone drinking wine and having dinner in the dark. Like damn.
Anyway that's my fresh post-watch rant.

If you're hesitating to watch this, don't. I didn't think I'd cry this much, but the first episode I was. I read a comment recently about a drama that left you emotional hungover and it said Goblin. I've heard it was one of the saddest dramas out there and they weren't lying.
It's sad when you watch a character die, but it's worse when you're expecting them to die. The entire time watching this, I was like, "I know, Kim Shin is going to have to die." But the way he did made it the most painful. This drama is one of my favorites now, of all time. The quote, "I heard we have four lives..." Ugh. That gets me every time. To me there was some predictability to this, but I loved being able to guess what was gonna happen to both of them. And the ending. I thought it was going to end with him dying, but what happened just made my life so much better. I loved this entire show and will rewatch this in the future.
I need to go cry some more. I don't know who I am after this.

I just finished the drama today, and I really wanted to cry at some parts but couldn't cause I was in public, but oh my. This drama had me enthralled to say the least. The only thing that made me a tad bit angry is the amount of times Bai Qian lost her memory. I mean the second time was on purpose, sure, but still. I'm glad things went well in the end, but I still would've like to see their second wedding. And have another kid, other than A-Li. My favorite character has to be A-Li, for the reason that, even though he never met his mother until 300 years after his birth, he still had love for her. He knew that Bai Qian and Ye Hua would be together again, he never lost hope. God, this kid is the best though. The episode where he meets her, and he agrees for her to go back to Heaven with them, before she even answers. A-Li is definitely Bai Qian and Ye Hua's kid, no doubt.
