Desgraça ao Seu Dispor (2021)

Beautifully tragic

It was one of the most awaited dramas for me this year and it really served its purpose
The way everything was portrayed was so much mesmerizing it did become very much heartwrenching in between, but it was also not a waste of your time. The drama actually gave new definitions to many words, it delivered the word which most of us do not even not want to hear that is death this was one of the arcs that were so beautifully written.
It made us understand so many things regarding that we are not the saddest ones in this world.
All of them mean every character was so touching that they could feel them even though the second couple's love triangle plot was a little bit boring.
The story did seem confusing, but if one tries to understand it, it could be one of the best dramas that beautifully delivered every type of emotion.
pros
The cast
The story
It made us understand human nature a bit more
ost

Thank you
Happy watching

A Truly Loving And Unique Romantic Series About Life Itself!

What is the difference between creation and destruction? Is there a difference? Can one exist without the other, or they merely two sides of the same coin. For creation to occur, there must be destruction, at some point, and the same can be said of destruction. A star is born from material from a supernova, which is the death of a star, which provides the basic building blocks for creating new stars.

In The Lion King, we get a similar explanation for the Circle of Life. Lions eat the zebras, but when lions die, it creates the necessary components for zebras to be able to live.

It has been said that “God” is the Alpha and the Omega, as well as being neither the Alpha nor the Omega. In the Hindu religion, you have Vishnu (God) who creates Brahma, which is the creative force and Shiva as the destroyer. In short, what this is about is Life itself. And this is what this series is about.

Tak Dong Kyung is a young book editor who finds out that she has an inoperable brain tumor and that she only has a few months to live. A young woman with her whole life ahead of her, in her anger and despair, wishes for doom to fall upon the world. What she doesn’t anticipate is Doom responding. And much to her surprise, she finds herself the object of Doom’s interest. He is the destroyer, the entity who makes things disappear, as he puts it in order to maintain the balance of Life. However, Doom’s response plays an integral part in his story as his fate as well as Tak Dong Kyung’s are now tied together.

Doom promises Tak Dong Kyung that the remaining 100 days of living will be painless so long as she wears a small, red, string bracelet. The more time that Doom spends with Tak Dong Kyung, the more he becomes enamored with her, and she with him. As an entity, he has no need to eat or sleep, and he is also able to hear the thoughts of people around him. He also professes that he is incapable of love, although we begin to doubt this claim as the story progresses.

Meanwhile, a lone, young girl occupies a small hospital room, and she appears to be ill. However, we soon learn that she is the one who created Doom in the first place, and she has a mysterious pot with fertilizer but no plant. She waits patiently to see if it will bloom for her Garden. The girl represents “Life” or “Vishnu” or “God.” She represents the Observer and the Observed. Her sole desire is for the happiness of humans and nobody—not even Doom—is beneath or notice or her love. She recognizes and even acknowledges that Doom is a necessary component of Life, but even Doom is given the greatest gift: freedom of choice. He can choose to remain as Doom or “fall” and eventually become human.
Meanwhile, Tak Dong Kyung, who appears to be a strong woman, finds herself facing her own mortality, and it is with Doom’s help—despite him being a force of destruction—still possesses wisdom. As with many people upon finding out that she has a terminal disease, Tak Dong Kyung runs away, and vows never to love anyone. Even Doom knows that this is a supreme act of cowardice and that a person who cannot love, is essentially dead already. This forces Tak Dong Kyung to finally cry out, “I want to live! I want to live and love everyone!” which is an incredibly touching and powerful scene.

Equally powerful is the moment where Doom and Tak Dong Kyung must make a choice: either she dies and secures his place as Doom, or she lives, and thus makes Doom inconsequential or non-existent. Doom sweetly takes the burden from her, as he states, “I am here to save you and to ensure that you live.” And in an act of supreme, unconditional love, Tak Dong Kyung is spared the awful prognosis that had awaited her. But, at what cost? Before he disappears, Doom implores her to live and be happy no matter what, and she does her absolute best to do this.

Having faced her own mortality, Tak Dong Kyung has acquired some Life wisdom of her own, telling her indecisive friend, Na Ji Na, that she doesn’t need more time, she needs courage because you never know how much time you have left. And perhaps, for the very first time, she is able to open up and profess her love for Doom as well as for her family. It’s ironic how many people in this world are literally afraid to love, and yet, it is the only way in which true happiness can be experienced.

Aside from being an incredible love story, this series is a deeply moving and engrossing spiritual journey as well. “God,” “Doom,” and “Tak Dong Kyung” make up the trinity that exists. We find that “God” is not fearful or vengeful, nor is She a dictator requiring unswerving loyalty and obedience. She is the Loving Mother who only desires the best for all humans everywhere. And her love is no less even for those aspects—like Doom—who are simply there to be a vital process of Life itself. She tends a Garden of a sea of flowers, which is a representation of all humans. She is sweet and loving, but also non-interfering, knowing that each person must walk his/her own path. Such is the power of the freedom of choice.

Bo-Young Park is one of my all-time favorite Korean actresses. She was among the first I experienced when I began my foray into K-Dramas, and she’s never disappointed. First with “Oh, My Ghost!” and then “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon.” She’s fearless in her display and expression of emotions. What she feels, we feel. She can also be cute and sassy.

While the rest of the cast is superb, Seo In Guk (Doom) and Jung Ji So (“God) are equally dynamic in their respective roles that truly make this series work.
This isn’t just a feast for romantics, but a magical journey that just might give you food for pause regarding your own beliefs regarding Life and death. Life has no opposite. The opposite of Death is Birth. Life is endless.

In truth, I’ve never seen a series like this one, and it certainly did not disappoint. The writing, directing, and acting were all first-rate. It is a truly touching, poignant, and moving experience to watch this series. And perhaps, the series begs the viewer to ask the question: are you living Life? Or are you simply caught up in the current of Life? Yes, there is a difference.

The writer does not understand their own premise

Okay so...

Acting? Excellent. As to be expected from this cast to be real, but the acting is great. The chemistry for the characters (romantic, frienship and filial) is pretty good. The music is generally good (let us take a moment to bask in the glory of Ailee...okay cool). Production quality? Good.

But the story. Well, uhm, it's just a romantic drama with most of the tropes (many of which are just so overused anyway). Why do the leads like each other? Why? One is dying and has had a fairly miserable life. The other is Doom. Like actual Doom. A personification of Doom. Why is Doom a human? Why does Doom have human emotions? How is that a thing? What is going on with that? Doom is basically a lonely human man with powers. If Doom really existed in this form it wouldn't be a human that could easily fall in love with a human and was just lonely all the time. Doom is the reason she lost her parents, the reason she is dying, the reason for many of the crappy things in her life. It is understandable that there is balance to be upheld and all but the balance isn't Doom alone. God exists in this world. Also there should be many other personifications of other positive and negative experiences and emotions. Just God and Doom does not make any sense to maintain the whole balance of the world.

It's a creative idea. But the imagination and creativity begins and ends with the idea. There is no believable character development and the relationship development is not reasonable. I do not believe the writer truly sat and considered the questions her characters, especially the lead two, would truly grapple with.

Imagine you found out you had 100 days from today to live. Just 100 days. What would you do? Spend time with loved ones? Go on a trip? Write? Read? Watch films? Create a bucket list and tick things off? Would you try to make sure your loved ones are in the best position they could be? Or would you flirt with Doom itself, the supernatural being that is literally responsible for every piece of suffering in your entire life and the lives of those around you, a being that does not care if you live or die or whether you suffer? Just continue to go to work? Fail to tell the people in your life so they go on ignorant until you simply drop dead? Would you continue to love Doom as he runs away and comes back after you eventually suffer excrutiating pain? Multiple times.

There are so many things that do not work in the execution of this premise. The main thing is that Doom is Doom. Doom is not balance or whatever. He's Doom. Why does he care about suffering? Why does he care about pain? Why does he fall in love? The FL is nothing special, especially to a being that has existed for ages and maintains negative, painful, horrible things in the world for the sake of a balance is part of but not solely reponsible for. The writer created the character of Doom and then just manufactured the usual romantic tropes and had the character fall into those rather than truly considering what it would mean to have a personification of Doom. They also have not, in my opinion, fully explored what it would mean to have a perpetual countdown to your death when you know exactly how close it is to zero. Grappling with your mortality is no small thing and forces you to confront what is important. There is no impulsive or bizarre behaviour to show the FL going through an existential crisis of sorts, nor is there any consideration of how to prepare herself and those she loves, nor any sort of desire to do anything she enjoys or is curious about. There's nothing. This crisis, which should be an earth-shattering event, propelling the story into full motion feels like an after-thought constantly. The main point is the two leads are in love, in spite of that not being credible given the premise, and we should sit down and enjoy the love story.

It had such a rich, juicy premise. It has great actors. The production quality is excellent. The music is lovely and blends in beautifully with the emotions in the scenes. But this series is as if someone has put all the ingredients to a delicious recipe in one bowl and left it hoping it would cook itself. The writing is not solid enough to hold this story together. The writer does not have a good enough understanding of how to execute their own creative, imaginative idea. It's a shame.

For now I have dropped it but I will probably finish it after everything airs and I can just go through and see what happened. Let me know if I should. Thanks :)

PHILOSHOPICAL AND ROLLERCOASTER OF EMOTIONS AND TWISTS

It doesnt matter what did people say about this drama, but few things to let you know that the beauty is on its beholder. Invest your time, heart and mind for this drama. It is philosophical and addicting for me. Plus the chemistry of the casts is insane especially Seo In Guk, a melodrama's Master and Park Bo Young, the Queen of fantasy drama.

I would say the plot is sometimes confusing and some parts are delayed, but the twists are unpredictable yet breathtaker especially when both TDK and MM decide to save each other and that is when the painful parts begins. For the ending and some parts of the drama it is inevitable because all of us want happy ending so the writer decided to save both antagonist and protagonist to follow our demands. People wont watch it in the first place unless it has a happy ending. Beautiful cinematography and well directed. They play with emotions so much as well as the second lead stories.

Give it a second chance to enjoy the drama full of emotions so prepare your tissues, cause this drama doesn't feed you with happiness all the time. I'm not the avid fans of anybody in this drama, yet I give it a try because Park Bo Young and she wouldnt choose it without reasons. Believe me guys, she nailed it again. If you like Strong Woman Do Bong Soon because of the chemistry and cuteness, so this drama wont disappoint you because it feeds you with different kind of feelings and characters. All the casts in the drama are doing great, so please do not degrade their efforts by generalizing your opinion. Encourage them to watch instead as they might have different palates as yours.

OKAY GUYS, IT WAS OVERALL OKAY!

The acting was super cool. The story and diaologues were very poor at the last eps. Wished if it had super twists. Seems it did not met my expectations. Anyways, Loved the acting and chemistry so much. And I pray to god, Please don't let Tae Oh to act in these roles. He is so good. His role in this drama was like a bit unwanted, annoying and he had only like 5 minutes screentime or something. Park Boyoung and Seo In Guk was super perfect. But the story was kinda boring at last. Normally, we see a bigger twist in last eps of fantasy dramas. If writer improved the story, It would have been good. Dawoon was super cool. He really made proud SF9 and fantasies for his acting. He was super cute too. Lee Soo Hyuk and Shin Do Hyun was super cool. Especially I loved Soo Hyuk's deep voice. But their relationship had no improvement. Anyways, I hope watchers can find this as a time-pass drama. Overall, It's okay!

Refreshingly complete

I don't write reviews but I have to say that this was the best show I have seen in a long time. It had the right amount of mystery, fantasy, romance, and comedy. Never once did I feel like the show was boring or dragging.

One thing a lot of shows fail to do is to develop the storyline outside of the main characters but this show did not disappoint. I know a lot of people complained that the last 2 episodes seemed like filler episodes but I believe that they were necessary to understand the lives of the other characters. It was really refreshing to see them tie up all loose ends and it made the happy ending seem so genuine.

I was so scared that if this show was to have a happy ending it would be rushed and would have preferred a bittersweet ending, but the writers proved me wrong. I did not see them making Sa ram (Myul Mang) human and the way it happened was so meticulously executed. I grew to like characters I was wary of such as dora the destroyer, Lee Hyun Kyu, the ceo who flew to Bali with his wife??? I even grew to love Kevin and his one-sided interactions with the rest of the family.

I absolutely loved the character arcs that Tak Sun Kyung went through and how he was able to find himself while being there for his sister during her "final' days. I loved the relationship that every character had with each other. The communication in this show is so healthy and is what I dream of in a perfect world.

I was truly pleased with the love triangle as the sub plot for the second-lead characters and how it was handled. I really loved how each scene, even when repeated had a different meaning than when it was originally shown (like when na ji na and lee hyun kyu first met in the hallway and their last meeting; showing when she fell in love with him and when she was finally over him)

I honestly did not mean to write this much but DAYS has been such a refreshing show to watch that I still have more to say. I love it even more that there was no final kiss between TDK and KSM because it shows that their love is still ongoing even when the cameras are not rolling.

Anyone who feels let down by this show should try rewatching without comparing it to other kdramas because it is in its own category. I will forever miss KSM asking to kill people for TDK and the writers' little crush on TDK (I forgot his name but his scenes with her were so adorable compared to his scenes with KSM).

The writers did an amazing job with the story line, the subbers were amazing as well because if it wasn't for them I would have missed out on this great show. I think it will be a while before I find another Kdrama that I will love more than DAYS.

Too much negative reviews for this beautiful show so i'm writing a positive one.

Fantasy romance drama fans, hello.
We love Korean fantasy stories and how they make super unique characters and make us fall in love with them and the story. Of course, there were many dramas that failed, but this one made it.
What I want to talk about the most is how this show didn't use any non-likeably characters just to make more content. All the characters in the drama are likable.
I really don't like when the characters fall in love too fast with each other, trying to emphasize the modern culture of fast relationships, I also hate it when the characters keep fighting the whole series and only in the end they fall in love with each other. BUT this show had the perfect timing for everything. not too fast, not too slow.
Super handsome Seo In Guk, amazingly adorable Park Bo Young, the perfect chemistry made the show even more beautiful. I also like how they talked without honorifics since the start.
It's been a while since I shed some tears, but this show was able to do it!
Very recommended.

The tears I shed could fill up 10 bathtubs

My high rating for this drama might be a result of me watching it over 2 months rather than the usual 3 days that it takes me to finish a kdrama. Because of this, I may have forgotten some things that originally may have displeased me. This drama seems to get many bad reviews, and while I can sort of see why, I invested myself so emotionally in the plot and the characters for the past 2 months that I just don’t have the heart to give this drama the low rating that many think it deserves. While the directing was rather confusing (at some points I had to double check to make sure I didn’t skip like 20 minutes of the drama) and I didn’t care about the 2nd leads all that much, I loved the leads to pieces and just wanted them to be happy. I cried during almost every episode in the second half of the drama, and the days that I would watch Doom At Your Service I felt very melancholy and a little hopeless. The emotional impact of the drama rubbed off on me quite a bit, but I’m not even mad about it. I’d have to argue that the ending for this drama was personally the best ending that I could have wished for them, and I was very glad to see the drama slow down on the doom and gloom and give us the most slice-of-life type ending ever. My last hour watching this drama I just sat in bed curled up with my giant pug body pillow and smiled the whole time. It was perfect. The OST was incredible, and the main leads were perfectly picked out. I don’t know if I could ever bring myself to watch this drama again because I am so afraid to ruin its magic, but I can very confidently say that this drama is one of my favorite dramas of all time nonetheless, flaws and all.

Just what I needed

After finding out that park bo young and seo in guk were going to be in this drama I just had to watch it. That doesn’t always guarantee a great story but I personally loved this one. It was an interesting mix of melodrama, romance and comedy.

Since hearing the storyline I was very worried it would have a sad ending. Call me old fashioned but I love happy endings. Open or sad endings just leave me feeling uneasy and upset.

I loved our two main leads, gotta give major props to their acting because the emotions and nuances they were able to portray in their characters really made me fall I love with them as a couple throughout the drama. The side characters were also well fleshed out and didn’t have me skipping all of their scenes which I do tend to do because most of the time dramas just use them as filler and don’t give them much thought.

The OST’s were perfect and overall I loved the vibe and tone throughout the drama. The ending was beautiful and was one of those dramas that makes me feel like I need a bit before starting a new drama. That’s how I know I truly like a drama when I don’t want to move on. The only thing that would have made it even more perfect is if they would have gotten married lol. But I did love that the last episode highlighted that this isn’t the end for our lovely characters but the beginning of Kim SA Ram’s new life as a human and a new chapter in their lives. They deserve it after putting their lives and destiny on the line for each other .

Worth the Hype: Slow Burn, Enemies to Lovers, Fantasy-Romance Drama (watch for the 5 leads!!)

Wonderful acting, sizzling chemistry, stunning visuals, great humor, beautiful and innovative cinematography, and a breathtaking soundtrack! This is a unique, slow-burn drama and a gift that keeps on giving. If you liked Goblin, Tale of the Nine-Tailed, or Hotel Del Luna, then this fantasy romance is for you!!

Pay attention to the story, dialogue, and characters, and you'll become immersed in this new, enchanting, and thrilling world. Kudos to the director, writer, and crew because the visual effects, storytelling, and production quality are top-notch--the transitions and dream sequences are pure perfection. So aesthetically pleasing and a joy to watch.

STORY: The drama is more dialogue-heavy and character-oriented than action-driven. It depends on metaphors, symbolism, and poetic imagery to explore the love story between a dying human who wants life and an immortal deity who wants death. With such a larger-than-life storyline, the plot can feel slow at first (especially during episodes 1&2) but I think this is intentional. Each episode is better than the last and you lose track of time while watching! By episodes 3&4, the drama picks up the pace (much like Vincenzo) and definitely raises the stakes. Think of each episode as the missing piece of the puzzle, and pay close attention to details. I sense some plot twists and tears in store!

ACTING: Seo In Guk and Park Bo Young are phenomenal in their roles, and oh, the CHEMISTRYYY! The (sexual) tension between the leads, the intense gazes, bickering, and banter, everything is to die for! I'm a sucker for enemies-to-lovers plots!! LSH, KTO, and SDH are also great so far, despite minimal screentime. There's a lot of dialogue between characters in this drama, and it requires skill to keep the audience engaged throughout such long exchanges, so I'm very impressed so far. I am also a long-time fan of our five leads so watching all of them in one drama is a dream come true!

MUSIC: I'm waiting for TVN to release the OST! The background music is mellow, subtle, and unintrusive. I love it so much and can't wait to add the songs and instrumentals to my playlist!

REWATCH VALUE: We are only four episodes in, but I can tell this drama will be on my favorites list. I literally cannot handle two-eps per week, I need more!! I can watch this drama--especially the leads--all day. Can't wait to binge this after it's completed! :))
