As  a person who doesn't usually enjoy daily life themed dramas, I must say that 'Because this is my first life' was the best 2017 drama for me so far.
The cliffhangers started from day 1 and this is one of the reasons to be so excited for this series. Waiting for the next episodes was really a pain.
What I found so special about this drama were the characters on the first place. Se Hee was such an unordinary person and even though I thought Ji Ho was kinda annoying in the beginning, I just couldn't help but love her as the time passed. Really enjoyed the script writer's work. Almost every episode had those lines, full of metaphors that really make you question your whole existance. I also loved the secondary couples and even though in most drama they're just a waste of time, here they were just as interesting as the main one.
What I found lacking was that there wasn't much of explanation about Se Hee's past, which played a quite a big role this drama. On the other hand I think they could make the ending episodes a little more dramatic and emotional.
Overall if you are looking for something light-hearted, funny and with some good acting, this is perfect for you!
Hope this was helpful and sorry for the mistakes <3

If I had to describe the movie with just one word, "wonderful" is the first thing that comes to mind.
I will start with the pros
First of all the I really enjoyed how the film was directed. It makes you want to go to all the places the characters visited because of the cozy feel they bring. So if you like cute cafés, vintage furniture and all those fairytale-like places, you'd know what I mean.
I think Han Hyo Joo is the best choice to play the character of Yi Soo. Her acting perfectly portrayed the girl, who is kind with everyone, a little naive, confused with her own feelings but still - the definition of a "good person".
Maybe it's because of me, but I found the movie really emotional. It makes you feel bad for the faceless Woo Jin who has nobody beside him and can't have a normal life. Even the woman he loves can't recognize him on the street. That was kind of off too because we can't get to see some nice chemisty between Hyo Joo and a costar but I personally really liked her with Park Seo Joon and I'm rooting for another project with the both.

Although I really enojeyd the movie, I can't vote with a straight 10 because the storyline is lacking. Except for the man changing his looks, there is nothing special about it. He falls in love, she falls in love but is later confused. However, they have their happy ending and everything is nice. It wasn't properly explained the reason behind Woo Jin's transformations.

In summary, if you're looking for a movie to spend the night with, this one is a great choice and I think everyone would like it. I hope my first ever review was helpful and I apologise if there were too many English mistakes. :D

As I started watching TSHLYE I was literally overwhelmed with emotions. The plot was anything I can think of since it was incredibly unpredicatble. However the hype began to fade as the episodes went by. From an amazing psychological drama it went to a lovestory which we have seen in plenty other dramas.

Although I am kind of disappointed at how the story turned out, this is still one of the best productuions I've watched. I can say that this is mainly thanks to Seo In Guk's insanely interesting character Kim Moo Young, whose personality is complicated and unpredicatble and probably one of the best charaters I've had the pleasure to watch in a korean drama. His development as a person is also very heartwarming while he goes from an merciless psychopath to a man willing to change for the sake of his love.

I think the story between the police oficer and the male lead was more exciting than the love story itself. They had a kind of cute bromance and yet they were each other's greatest enemy. Yoo Jin Gook is kind of the typical moralistic policeman every thriller drama neads. His relationship to his sister is also very heartwarming to watch.
Yoo Jin Kang's character was a rather boring one and it seemed like she was overshadowed by the others although she wasn't the typical weak female lead we've seen in many other kdramas.

Lastly I can say the drama had everything to suit everyone's taste. A melodramatic thriller with a misterious vibe and even some humour. I stronlgy recommend it but if you're looking for a happy story and a beautiful ending, better choose something else!

Hope my review was helpful and I apologise for the mistakes ??
