Insane Visuals
i have a lot to say but i’ll just talk about how incredible the cinematography was…the beach dance and the carousel takes the cake!! shin hyesun is a true star. her ability to serve in each and every scene is just super fine?? also who wouldn’t want ahn bohyun in every life lol. the buildup was incredible but it did lose its potential towards the end as it all seemed a little bit cramped up and rushed. all the stars for chowon and doyun’s story. we deserved so much more of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
More Episodes please!
This delightful Kdrama captivated my attention. It touches on themes of fear, language, and substances, though I found them subtly portrayed. The exploration of remembering past lives intrigued me, and I particularly admired the strong performance of Shin Hye Sun, the main actress who skillfully portrayed a character engaged in martial arts. Despite not reaching perfection, her depiction was indeed commendable.Ban Ji Eum, portraying the tall and handsome lead actor, brought a muscular presence to the screen. The unique storyline, delving into the concept of past lives, set this drama apart from others I've watched. My only lament is that it wasn't longer; I yearned for more episodes to delve deeper into the narrative.
The contrast between the historical and present-day lives of the characters added a fascinating layer to the storyline. Gratitude extends to the producers, writers, costume designers, and all involved in bringing this captivating drama to life, from the automobiles to the homes—a heartfelt thank you for creating such an engaging experience.

Love will always find it's way
I will just begin with appreciating how beautiful the story is written and how well the actors have played their role.This is one of those dramas where not a single character seemed lacking to me or not needed.
I have watched Military Prosecutor Doberman which has Ahn Bo Hyun in the lead role and I really loved the show so I had been keen on watching more shows by him but didn't happen to pick on one before this. His role in this show is completely different from that in Military Prosecutor Doberman so I wanted to see this side of his where he acted in a mystery romcom and I am very happy I picked this show. He just made the character of Seo Ha perfect.
This is my first time watching a drama of Shin Hye Sun and after watching this I can only ask myself as to why it took me such a long time to watch her dramas. Her acting brought life to Ban Ji Eum's character. So many emotions needed to be portrayed by her and she accomplished it perfectly.
This is one of the shows I have watched where child actors are given a good amount of screen time and honestly it did not disappoint at all. All the child actors were exceptional in their role especially the roles played by Kim Shi Ah and Park So Yi. Their dedication to live up to the role is phenomenal.
It is not in all reviews that I mention the OST's of the dramas but this drama does need a mention. The OST in this show was very good and made me add it to my playlist.
Talking about the 1-4 episodes I would say that the child actors perfectly opened the story and made it clear from the get go as to how beautiful the bond was between Ban Ji Eum and Moon Seo Ha. All the details regarding the plot that should be given in the start of a drama were given in a proper pace and the story started unfolding perfectly. All characters that are needed to bind the story were introduced and explained from the beginning making the plot clear. The child actors played a major role in these episodes and you might honestly miss them in the later part of the show.
The 4-8 episodes had everything a viewer might accept from a beautiful romcom. The chemistry between Ahn Bo Hyun and Shin Hye Sun could be seen through their characters. There were many heart touching scenes and also this part of the showed the transition of feelings between characters. No major plot twists took place in this part of the show.
In the 8-12 episodes of the show there were many things that seemed to unfold. Many questions arose during this part of the show and one might sense that things got rushed in this part of the show. Uncovering the mysterious was a major focus of these episodes and the characters are caught up in taking important decisions. While the previous episodes had the building of the relation of the leads this part showed uncertainties in their past and present. The questions were all answered in the end and the story seemed to be completed well.
Now mentioning the points I disliked/liked and thought could be better are:
1. The story in the second half of the show seemed rushed.
2. 4 more episodes making this a 16-episode drama would have been an even better journey.
3. The ending seemed rushed, I felt that more time could be given to the leads in the ending scenes(I personally liked the ending that is given but just wanted more being a happy ending lover)
4. The relation of the characters with each other and other characters was shown very well.
5. The mystery element of the show could be explored a little earlier in the episodes.
6. I loved seeing Seo Ha's sincerity towards Joo Won but would have liked to see his time without her in the show the way Ban Ji Eum's character was shown struggling to get together with Seo Ha. More of his scenes during their time apart would bring more depth to their bond.
Overall, I would say it's a great watch, not many flaws that I could find. People who love romcoms especially some mystery element would really like the show.
P.S. Feel free to tag me or message me if you want spoilers as I tend to avoid giving spoilers in my reviews.

As with all 12 episode k-dramas
It felt a bit rushed. Some areas of context could have been explored more. It was good, the FL is excellent as she is in every drama she acts in. The ML did not blow me away, but regardless it was a decent drama. It's one of those things that you watch because you have seen literally everything else lol. But if that sounds like you, i think you'll like this one, at least enough to make it to the end.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
a heartfelt journey of love and destiny.
"See You in My 19th Life" is a captivating and enchanting Kdrama that delves into the mystical concept of reincarnation. The story revolves around a woman with the extraordinary ability to recall her past lives, leading to her endless cycle of reincarnation driven by an unyielding grudge from her first life. As she revisits her past 18 lives, the drama takes viewers on an emotional rollercoaster, as she endeavors to fulfill an unfinished love from her 18th life while unraveling intriguing mysteries.The drama's ending leaves a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction, tying up loose ends gracefully. The mesmerizing OSTs add depth to the scenes, amplifying emotions throughout the series. Exceptional performances from the talented cast breathe life into the beautiful characters, and the palpable chemistry between the lead actress and her co-stars is a delight to watch.
"See You in My 19th Life" artfully balances the concept of reincarnation with a solid love story, resulting in a heartwarming and touching narrative. Despite being somewhat predictable, the series manages to surprise with unexpected twists. The emotional depth of the drama tugs at heartstrings, leaving viewers teary-eyed yet uplifted. With its engaging plot and touching moments, this drama is a must-watch for Kdrama enthusiasts seeking a heartfelt journey of love and destiny.

Whimsical, wholesome and beautiful
I loved the vibes of this drama.It was so whimsical, unique, fun and swoony.
I loved the chem btw the 2 couples.
Our main was just so cute and sweet. And I will never forget the dancing on the beach scene, it is just ICONIC. and the kind of thing I just love!
The part where her sister believes her was a bit unbelievable for me but I can also understand to some degree still wasn't completely on board with how everyone believed past lives existed just like that. That's my main critique.
I love the vibes and feelings from the first episodes ( 1-9/ one or two up after they got together ). It took me a while to finish coz the pace slowed down my interest much) but also cuzIi was in a slump.
Also, I love the way she calls his name so softly, ✨" Seoha" ✨
They are def one of my favourite couples.
Also through this show, I have found my ideal type; Golden Retriever X serious quiet guy
If you know, you know
I liked the ending but I don't understand why why she went to her job as she just forgot her memories.
But the amnesia wasn't necessary if the whole ' remembering our loved ones from our past life will hurt them. just didn't exist and instead found another way to stop remembering her past lives.

Loved the chemistry of the leads!
Story wise, it was new, cute, and interesting, but after reaching the middle of the series, I realized there isn't much drama and plot twist than I expected. The evil characters weren't so evil after all? The build up and writing from the start was so great it kind of ended flat for me.Although the ending was quite cute, I wished there was more!! I wanted to see more ahn bo hyun and his adorable acting (we need him in more romcoms!!) and shin hye sun. I really hoped our main leads and side characters had longer moments together, but too bad we only got 12 episodes for this one.
Chemistry of the leads and second leads were amazing for me, that it made this show enjoyable and worth watching.

It could have been better...
The first 2 episodes were amazing and I only hoped for more, but the plot confused me over and over again.It was generally marketed as a love story of her finding her special one in her 19th life, then it turned into a story about grief and how her loved ones were hurting even long after their loved one was gone, then it turned into a murder mystery, then an inheritance war, then another mystery of her trying to remember her past life.
All I'm saying is as good as the plot was they tried to do too much and gave so little back. I wished they fleshed out the story and actually put in little details for it to make sense.
Another problem I had with this drama was that, the dialogue in this drama lacked a lot of chemistry for what it was supposed to be, I couldn't help but but feel bored and zoning out when ever a conversation was happening, the characters seemed so bland when ever they spoke, if they used only facial expressions to act it would have been better than the dialogue I was hearing, the only chemistry I was fond of was between the FL and her sister.
From someone who hasn't read the webtoon, I can understand the Studio Dragon had to make due with what they had but overall I only liked the production (nothing less from this studio), a really beautiful drama but not up to par for what it was supposed to be.
I'll probably give it another chance and rewatch it in the future.
I'll give it a 6 because of the actors

Good story but the end was kind of dissapointing
I will not say much just the necessary. The story captivated me since the beginning and the chemistry between the two protagonists (child and adults) was always on point, that said I think the drama really have a story to be a 16 episodes show. What dissapointed me was that in the end things were solved so fast that it seemed they were rushed to finish.First, the uncle of Mun-Ha that just admitted his crimes without even think about it, went to jail and that was the end of all the accident story, we didn't saw of something happened with Ji eun's father, if he was caught or not, what happened to her brother, I kind of wanted that he could see that his daughter was the person he killed, and other thing is that the drama shows that his truck was sabotaged and he says that the accidents happened in that magnitude because of the frente system but is just this, it doesn't evolve in anything more.
Second after all this things become faded to end, around episode 10 I was kinda bored because the plot was all solved. The situation in the end was confusing because how can everyone know who she is but not herself, and she just continue doing everything she did before but the principal person of her life that is her mom (the circus uncle) just dissappears of her mind, did she just forget all her infancy? but then how is she in the same place she is today? She cannot say she was with her biological family because their memories were not changed just hers. Also for Cho-won and Mr.Ha, they were all the story saying they could not be together and then one episode they simple forget everything and start being a couple, I was passed with this because there were no development of their characters to arrive in this point of their relationship.
And for the last part I think that it lacked a lot of informatiom about Min-gi and Han-na characters, in the end we continue not knowing who Min-gi is, just that he was someone that was in his 23rd life. Is he still a shaman? Maybe a guide that take other souls that are suffering to complete their journey? We will never know.
.
But despite me over analyzing things it is a good drama. To be honest the soundtrack was what catched my eyes (or ears) first. I heard Colde's music Star on YouTube and that was how I came to see the drama. It is a good story to pass the time, it's new, fresh and kinda cute. I recommend you to watch and take your own conclusions.

Show with promising concept, but it fell short of expectations
I just finished watching this drama and I have to agree with many others that the second half was a bit disappointing. The climax felt like lazy writing and if I hadn't watched it all in one go, I don't think I would have been able to finish it.However, I did love the OST. It had a heartwarming quality to it. The chemistry between the lead actors was okay, not great but not terrible either.
The memory loss of the female lead at the end was a bit sad but, I don't think she could have lived a normal life if she remembered all of her painful past. I do wish she could remember her 19th life at least.
Overall, the drama was decent, featuring a fantastic concept, but unfortunately, it fell short in its execution and storyline.

Story was so good..
An absolutely beautiful show, *See You in My 19th Life* has surpassed all the other kdramas I've seen thus far. It is exquisitely crafted, with every moment captivating and delightful. The inclusion of *Star by Colde*, adds an extra layer of soothing charm. Interestingly, I had listened to this song even before watching the drama, and it truly complements the storytelling.The show starts off on a high note, skillfully weaving and entangling its storyline without resorting to the typical love triangles found in other kdramas. Moreover, it successfully avoids the inclusion of toxic characters, making it a refreshing and enjoyable experience. I found myself reminiscing about the show's every moment, unable to tear my eyes away.
Despite having other important tasks at hand, I simply couldn't resist watching it in one go. I implore you not to skip this kdrama; you'll forever regret it.
A must watch ?

jisoo i get you!!!!!!!!
i know that every new kdrama can’t be my favorite but this was so good i want to rip my eyes out.shin hye sun was such a standout like she ACTED. and i absolutely love love love ha yoon kyung i don’t think anyone could have played cho won like her, like she cries like no one else omg. this was also my first ahn bo hyun drama and i was eeekkking and ahhhing half the time he was on screen. can he pls get type casted from this more cause he played the “emo sad boy don’t touch me but i love you i’ll protect you i’m shy but strong cute boy” guy a little too well. i want cha chung hwa in every show, movie, piece of media, even in my house giving me life advice. i want her to be my mom she is so fabulous. this also wasn’t a drama or character that i ever expected chae min to play, he just always gave me that school boy vibe but he stuck out so much in every scene he was in. gave me a silly little surprise seeing him in here and i will admit seeing him so serious all the time gave me a giggle
it has all the beats of a regular kdrama, so while a little bit predictable, it’s one of those shows where it doesn’t really matter, if that makes sense. the four main characters’ stories made them so loveable and so relatable (maybe except for the second love interest guy he kinda got on my nerves) it touches on grief in a very different and almost healing way than other things i’ve seen. and although it’s very easy to sympathy with seo ha and cho won, ji eums story and her pain stuck with me so much and was such a big part of why i felt like this show touched on reincarnation and different lives in such a calming way. it just felt refreshing.
the first 8 episodes were perfect and so so comforting and it’s not that the other four weren’t it’s just that i think it fell into the big kdrama ending trap. i kinda wanted more from the big reveal of ji eums first life. i was so excited the whole time to figure out what happened and then when it was revealed it was a bit anticlimactic, but still so so fun none the less. It also kinda was in the middle of being dragged out and too fast so it felt a little weird the last two episodes, so while the first 8 episodes were very romance heavy the last could were very like actiony and serious so it was a bit jarring. But i also think it’s hard for shows like these to balance the thriller action plot and the romance plot. but even tho it has those faults it was still absolutely amazing
the main couple was the cutest thing i’ve ever seen, i screamed, i cried, i jumped, i had to pause so many times just out of pure butterflies. the build up was absolutely perfect and i think i started talking to my screen pretending j was with them at some points. the second couple had me giggle so much as well which i didn’t think i would, and i think it had a lot to do with cho won. the way she acted and her lines just really made their romance feel like a 2018 kdrama. the guy kinda……was definitely a guy but i think by the end he redeemed himself and i was too focused on cho won half the time so ehhhh idc. all the relationships had so many sparks to them even the platonic ones which just made me fall in love with them even more.
