I absolutely fell in love with this BL, I couldn't stop watching and was always so eager to watch the next episode straight away. I've been a fan of New's {the director} work since Love By Chance and he hasn't disappointed me with this one. I can now say that 'Until We Meet Again' is one of my top BL's I've seen. I've been reading a lot of reviews and I can see why some people don't like it, this type of drama isn't for everyone. This drama is more slow paced then other BL's out there, so if you want to see the couple together straight away, this drama isn't for you. Even though the two characters have the connection before meeting each other because of their former selves, In and Korn..... which could see them moving fast but they don't act on anything until like 6 episodes in. That is one out of many many I ave seen.
THE STORY
I usually go into these drama's blind as I don't read the novels beforehand, but I thought the story was really unique and intrigued me straight away. There aren't that many reincarnation stories out there so I was really interested in what the cast, director and everyone else who worked on this drama could do with this plot and it turned out as I hoped. I absolutely loved the use of "The Red Thread Of Fate," it tied well with the concept of the story and helped build it up more. It gave the viewer more incite and knowledge that Dean and Pharm are supposed to be together..... by fate. It's another unique aspect of the story that kept me watching on to see how well they incorporated the red thread throughout the drama.
THE ACTING/CAST
I decided to check this drama out because I saw Fluke as one of the main leads, and instantly thought this must be good. In my opinion I thought he suited the role of Pharm, I believe he has a lot of things in common and have a similar personality with this character which could possibly help him know more about this role so he can act to his best abilities to portray this character to make him feel more real.
While I watched it for Fluke, I was also really impressed by everyone else as well but Earth and Nine caught my attention a lot. There acting seemed real and I could feel their chemistry oozing off them through the screen. It felt like they were actually a couple, those two overall impressed me. Especially the suicide scene, which would've been hard to act out as it's such an intense, series and important part of the story.
I also loved the side couple, Win and Team. I wished they showed more of their relationship being formed, I just needed more from them. Like this couple just happened out of nowhere, making it a bit confusing but still love them anyway. I would love for them to have a series like some other BLs are doing, I'd be first in line to watch.
OVERALL
Overall the drama was put together well. I enjoyed watching every minute of it and every episode kept me wanting more. I gave it a 9.5 rating instead of a 10 because I thought it needed to be more dramatic in some parts and that some scenes did drag on a little bit while others were cut short. Other then that I loved it. I do recommend this drama for people who love heartwarming sad dramas. I'd definitely rewatch again and again, not many dramas have this much of an impact on me.
