It the perfect example of pathetic ML
Honestly, the drama started with a good note and story was also interesting until we find out about the ex of ML. Lol, he left her ex just because his brother died. What the hell is this, you were the one who asked your brother to bring the ring not her. So why you should leave her and don't tell he. He left her and started his pathetic life without caring about anyone else. and when he get to know about the SML that he is killer he wanted to get him all the punishment. So what should be your punishment for leaving your gf without any reason. I really don't like the plot twist at the end. Either they should have portrayed the SML as a bad guy from the start or shouldn't have turned him to an evil guy in one go.The ML lack humanity he only think about himself. I also don't like FL gesture when the SML asked for forgiveness for his brother act and she turned a blind eye like he had murdered the ML little brother.
I think the writer was drunk when writing last episodes. She didn't realized what she wrote in the end.

Enjoyable but with questionable plot-developments
First of all, i had very low expectations before watching this drama. That's where it surprised me. I especially enjoyed the middle of the Drama (Ep. 4-10). I actually thought this drama would turn out to be not my taste or to be bad. But i found myself really invested. At the beginning I thought of it as a feel-good Drama with some comedic elements, which i liked. It still had its meaningful moments. It's great to watch as an in-between Drama or if you're bored.What i liked:
- Relationship development between the two leads-> I didn't mind the ex coming back because it was obvious that he already liked dong joo. It added a bit of drama to their romance and i was in the mood for it. I liked the romance in this drama up until ep 11. After that, i was somewhat bored (or it's more like that other plotlines bothered me, causing a loss of interest)
-Dong Joo's Father
-That the Drama had some Comedy (but where is the comedy as the episodes passed?)
- Yoo So Ra and Kim Il Sub
Where it went wrong:
- It felt like the tone of the drama changed with the passing of the episodes. I don't know why and it's hard to pinpoint, but it felt different. The following points could have played a part in this change
-Sometimes i did not understand the maleleads choices (Everyone's human, i can see past that)
-Why turn a friend into a bad guy and an enemy? I HATE this trope. Why would someone decide to write this? Make it make sense. If you do write this, please write it properly. Yes, i was surprised but to write a friend-betrayal, just to shock the viewer is not writing at its best. Yes i do sometimes like unnecessary drama in a Kdrama but not this type. It's a matter of taste and this development somehow gives me trust issues.
- Just introducing persons to let them die. The last deaths felt highly fabricated and they left me feeling nothing. Don't overdo it. I did not mind it at the beginning and middle of the drama. But everything felt wrong towards the end.
- The Father's death? NONSENSE. Nonsense if you ask me. Why kill him off? And so late. They wrapped up his death in only one episode. It's still the mainleads father after all, why brush it off so fast? The Writer probably wanted a meaningful death to be Dong Joos last person, but it still rubbed me the wrong way. Even the way he died...
After all these negative points why would i still give it 6.5 Stars (in my rating system = good)? I still enjoyed it the majority of the time and since i had low expectations i was positively surprised. I liked the tone of the drama (even though not towards the end). I had a good time. Can you compare it to the other dramas i watched lately (like D.P)? Of course not.
Not a bad drama. But i can understand if others rate this drama lower than me. It's always a matter of taste. I acknowledge the negative aspects and still enjoyed it more than i thought i would.

unnecessary things added just for shock value + MAJOR SPOILERS
I will preface this by saying this is my first time writing a review.I just had to write because of how upsetting/disappointing this drama was. The concept of the storyline was quite interesting, but as the story progressed, I felt it just headed downwards. Changing a perfectly good, likable character to being the true evil culprit was just plain stupid. I liked the idea of him feeling guilty because he chose to save his older brother versus the male lead's younger brother. Still, of course, the writers decided to go in a completely different way to add shock value which honestly made the drama not as good.
Can't also forget the MAJOR SPOILER
The female lead's dad dying at the end and him being the last ghost she can see made me so infuriated; adding unnecessary misery that doesn't add to the storyline.
One last thing I didn't understand is why having a character that's supposedly an important friend of the female lead is practically never even there. Like, what's the point of even having her if she's never there? I genuinely don't understand what the writers of this series were trying to do. Shock value or plot twists sometimes don't add anything to the story if they can't be executed correctly!

J'adore
Ce drama assez original m'a plus tout de suite grâce à l'interpretation des acteurs et des sujets des différents épisodes. On passe par tous les sentiments, j'avoue adorer l'actrice Hyeri , elle a un petit quelques chose qui m'a plut de suite. Heureusement il y a des passages très drôles et aussi quelques personnages secondaires qui valent le détour. Le scénario est prenant , différentes personnes mais avec en arrière fond un fil conducteur qui est devenu addictif .Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Great Series and Storyline
The plot kinda reminded me of Hotel del Luna. But can I just say that... The chemistry is insane!It's also amazing how all the people Dong Joo helped is somehow related to her birth story. I love how they tied it all up creatively in the end. It's actually a surprising and genius move! So heartwarming!
If you guys thought all the episodes are tearjerkers, the last one will definitely break your heart so bad. Though, I did kinda forsee it, it was still so painful to watch. The actors did such a great job at portraying the characters that they were able to built viewer attachment.
I feel that the only thing the story felt short on, especially around the ending, is the romance aspect. Tae Hee and Dong Joo's ending could've been written and portrayed so much better after all the build up they did. Don't get me wrong, I love how mature their relationship is and how they are each others rock; as seen when both of them encountered very difficult moments in their lives. I love how their presence is silent and yet very unwavering. But towards the end, I just truly wished they showed more scenes of the two of them being together more (?), whether it be just silently bonding or what. I just feel robbed of that moment wherein it's just them. But that's just me.
The murder mystery part was also humanely written. The choices Hae Ahn did was always because he wanted a good life, a life far from his childhood. Sadly, he was too blinded by it that it changed him. But I'm glad he showed remorse towards the end and did the right thing.
Lastly, can we give props to Vincent and Uncle Priest. Their interactions and screentime were always pleasurable to watch and also helped carry the show. They're humorous and yet also full of love. Ahhh~ such amazing people to have in one's life.

Most Heartwarming drama ever ?
It's the most Heartwarming and healing drama I have ever seen which is ironic because it's about the last moments of someone's life before their death but still it touched my soul. the story was perfectly written but was a little bit complicated.The main villain at the end was shocking didn't expect as well as what happened in the last episode was too heart wrenching too I was literally crying when I saw that 😭. The episode of the apple mother was also so sad 😢 for the lady as well as his husband. after so many hardships they were finally were having their happy family after craving for it for many years was too heartwrenching 😭. But some were healing too where the teenage girl now was free of her problems and the most sad was how the little girl who slept with so many dreams of Tomorrow couldn't be able to fulfill them.
The acting was good FL was good in this and saw this drama after seeing her in my roommate is a gumiho 💗. The ML was also good it was my first time watching his drama 💗.
In conclusion loved it the story,how it was so nicely portrayed finishing all the arcs and not leaving and mystery, the acting, the production. But i wanted to know more about the third friend of the FL she was shown less but overall it was a good drama 👍🏻💗

Translate: " Please don’t leave yet, my heart isn’t satiated yet"
There were moments when dreams lingered unfulfilled or loved ones weren't prepared for the final farewell or they simply just wanted more time.
This drama can be perfectly described by those song lines. "May I Help You," or more fittingly, "May I try to help you fulfill your one last wish."
Is this episodic? I wouldn't say so exactly, because the stories continue into the next episodes, but there are plenty of stories covered throughout.
It's a very heavy watch. It's more like a slice of life, and you have to appreciate the essence of its pacing to grasp the emotions of each "death story." I have to say, I sobbed during many of the stories—it was definitely a cryfest for me.
So where did it go wrong for me?
❌ SFL entered randomly and exited just as randomly.
❌ They used many characters as "plot devices" after giving them so much story and character, only to ruin it by the end of the show.
❌ Some stories lacked depth or were simply too short.
❌ The history between the ML and SFL made the ML's character pretty inconsistent, given that he was very good at communicating.
✅ The leads were very good at communicating, their relationship was less heart fluttering but more mature.
✅ 80% of the death stories were so beautifully written, and I loved their execution.
✅I loved almost all the supporting characters, 1-2 were partially annoying but it's fine😭
Hyeri is a convincing crier; it's not just about her emotions and tears, but also the way her voice changes when she cries.
Jun Young, the man you are, his characters are always so radiant and interesting to watch, imma keep eye on your upcoming projects 🙈
Over-all, there were some noticable inconsistencies and some plot lines were extremely unnecessary but I still liked the show and it's worth a shot✨
Thank you for reading my review 🐻✨

Relationship handbook or how they should be!
Finally, I managed to finish this even though it took me longer than I intended. The reason? This drama is a rollercoaster ride but not in a good sense. It starts slowly with annoying main characters. So annoying, I almost dropped it but since I promised to watch it I persevered. After the episode 6 it suddenly gets better, more exciting and faster only to slow down a few episodes later turning into a boring mess. It picks up again towards the ending when it became necessary to give resolution to different storylines.This is a love story between a doctor and a funeral director. The doctor has abandoned doctoring because of a personal tragedy (death of a brother) and the funeral director needs to earn some money to ease the burden on her father. But she has a magic touch: when she touches a dead person, they wake up and get to have a last wish granted. After the initial scare, she takes care of 21 wishes she was supposed to get. We discover in the last episode the connection between these 21 people and the funeral director with a magic touch. The drama deals with relationships and what do they mean: family, friends, coworkers, religion and how they help us deal with life and death situations, what is acceptable and how we are perceived by people around us, both known and unknown and how we deal with that!
I liked the story, the fantasy element was original. I liked the overall optimistic outlook on human nature: the vast majority of people are nice and kind and really good. I often wonder if they really are or should this as well be counted under the fantasy element (my cynicism is showing!!)?
After my initial annoyance with the leads: I found the FL brazen and rude and the ML a spineless wimp, they grew on me and were really good together. Their relationship managed to avoid those pesky misunderstandings, influence of a toxic ex and last episode break up only to meet after a time skip! So surprising for a K drama!It was not all smooth sailing but it moved nicely forward without being boring! Well done!
There were some amazing support characters the best of which were two uncles: a single man with a funny haircut and a priest! Their bromance and the banter, verging on a BL, were really funny. Only that makes this drama worth the watch! And of course there is the funeral director's best friend with a crush on her boss, slowly pursuing him, making sweet faces and rolling shyly her eyer until he succumbed. Cute! By the way, why isn't Tae In Ho getting better and bigger roles? He deserves much better than the endless string of support and guest roles!
The music was lovely, the songs were appropriately sweet and slow with enough emotions considering the subject matter.
Now that I think of it, this seems to be another entry in the list of dramas dealing with recently deceased and their wishes and last moments (Tomorrow, Move To Heaven etc.) I must have sen others as well! I wonder why are there often such dramas coming from Korea! I do not remember watching as many western shows with such theme (Pushing Daisies, I Zombie...were mostly comedies!). The comedy here is just to give you a breather between serious scenes! The balance between serious and funny was perfectly attained!
I don't like the drama poster: already seen elsewhere and therefore not really attracting attention: so much so I almost missed this drama! Which was an OK watch but I will never rewatch it since it is not bingeable and it did not strike me as memorable!

I just couldn't patiently go through the last 4 episodes...
The first 8 episodes were pretty good... I enjoyed watching and understanding "what would you want to say or do before disappearing from this world?" This drama WILL make you tear up!! And that alone deserves a 7/10.Unfortunately, the story was lacking some in depth romance and focus... I couldn't understand the story about the pregnant/apple mom... She was murdered? But then this pregnant lady did not care about finding the murderer??! I mean isn't it the first thing you would share to capture the bad guy? To have closure before leaving the world?? I kept waiting for this case to return and have closure but nothing.
The friend turned out to be the evil one but why suddenly so heartless to the FL trying to strangle/kill her?? And then later give her the Micro SD card evidence to prove that he is not a "horrible" person because he actually might turn himself in one day?? Wow. I was somewhat lost like one scene making him evil but then another scene trying to show he's actually not that bad??
I felt asleep and tried so hard to stay awake just to finish the last few episodes but I got so impatient and pretty much fast-fowarded everything to get it over with. Yep, I even didn't care about the death of the FL dad. Fast fowarded the whole entire speech too. It's like this scene was forced to be added to the end of the story just so you can tear up again... But I just didn't care after feeling confused and dissatisfied with many of the dying cases...
And the romance...just not very satisfying... Don't really know what is it that is missing... The kiss scene was alright... No bed scene... Somewhat felt like high school couple... But then, they were supposed to be older? He is a doctor, like 30 years old?? Aaah.... Not very fun to watch for me... So, 7/10...

VERY GREAT CHEMISTRY, but storyline was meh
I have mixed feelings about this drama. On one hand, it was fun to watch, and the chemistry between the main leads was undeniable. However, the show would have been stronger if it focused on either the murder mystery or the love triangle. Personally, the ex-girlfriend storyline felt unnecessary and detracted from the main plot.The episodes followed a pattern where our female lead, as a funeral director, dealt with various deaths. While it was heartwarming to see the deceased being sent off with respect, the repetition in every episode made it a bit predictable and, over time, a little dull.
I did cry at the end tho…
One thing I did enjoy very much was the comedy brought by the uncles. They were so unserious, which added a much-needed playful element to the series. Also, I loved how they shipped and adored our main couple.

So much better than I expected
The bit about granting dead people their final requests was a little reminiscent of Hotel Del Luna, but objectively, this series was all around better. Except for in the OST category, there Hotel Del Luna takes the prize.One of my absolute favorite things was all the little hints sprinkled throughout that suggested Hae Ahn was not the happy-go-lucky, talk-a-mile-a-minute guy he seemed like. How, very slowly, glimpses of his darker side started to come out, making me feel more and more wary of him as the episodes went on, so by the time the big reveal was unveiled, it didn't feel like something out of the blue, but something the show had been building towards all along. The puzzle pieces were there all along, we just needed to put them together.
I also ended up tearing up a lot more than I'd first expected. The show didn't shy away from how brutal, traumatizing and devastating it can be to lose a loved one. And the actors were all so genuine in their grief that it was hard not to cry alongside them during some of the saddest storylines. Just keep in mind to have tissues handy.
The uncles were amazing and a big source of laughs. I loved seeing how invested they were in the relationship of their niece and nephew.
Honestly, I think all the different plots were wonderfully woven together from the little boy that started it all, and how closely tied Tae Hee's story was to Hae Ahn, but also how Joon Ho was the tie between Tae Hee and Dong Joo. Then, all the emotional trauma and guilt tied up in the woman Tae Hee had dated for 10 years only to not be able to even look at her after his little brother's death. I'm a little disappointed he was never actually honest with her about that. Maybe if she'd known why he'd walked away, she would have understood and been able to let him go. And, perhaps most importantly, how it all came down to Dong Joo granting wishes for the selfless people that'd helped saved others in the fire that ended up causing her mom's death.
The writers really did an amazing job with this one, and the cast truly made it justice by giving top notch performances. I'm so glad I stumbled upon it!

Its not melodrama! its supernatural romance story
For long time was delaying this drama for fear of tearjerker.But whoever wrote synopsis and reviews before was total ****.
Story goes around death of peoples, cause main female lead is funeral director which can see ghost of her clients.
Story is mainly about how female lead tries to sort out lives of her clients or rather I would say .... to fulfil their last wish.
Now for romance part its basic story about how two hurt souls meet and heals each other. Well done on this drama.
It got few depressing parts but still its very good romance drama.
8,5/10 - above average drama little off from peak one.
