My legit comfort drama
This drama overall is an outstanding drama for me.its been a really long time since the last time there was a similar story to this one and finally tomorrow did not disappoint!I love how the efforts of trying to convey the messages to never scared of living for tomorrow through variety types of cases that was a really sensitive topic each one of them had.The scripts were written very carefully that I could spot comfort words repeatedly.
Acting skills performed by the leads Kim Hee Sun,Rowoon,Lee Soo Hyuk and Yoon Ji On were also felt real even though there was a lack of rowoon's sometimes but it didnt get the drama to downhill at all and I really cannot deny the fact that his acting has improved miles better than in his previous dramas .I believe he will eventually perform perfectly in his next projects as his role here in tomorrow had a full package of mixed emotions almost in every episode and i suppose he has already had an experience to live more characters like he did here soonn!!
Not to forget about the CGI too !! Certain scenes from the flashback of old times were so aesthetically made and directed.The director of this drama often worked in directing movies before so maybe that explains why i always felt the touch of a masterpiece like i was watching a movie when i was watching it.
If you're looking a good fantasy drama to binge watching,no doubt on this one for me .the ratings didnt justify this drama enough but nevertheless, its still a good one.dont look any further!

I loved this drama, the main actors/actress all did phenomenally great. I wished we really did have Grim Reapers to save those from suicide. We have suicide prevention in the United States and I am probably sure South Korea has one too but is it working? This drama brings attention to this serious and horrific problem.

A perfect 13 episodes, followed up with a decent finish
Unlike what others may say, I really enjoyed the set up for this drama and how the case of the week format played out. The world and lore was interesting and the cases were great. I thought the show explored suicide in a pretty meaningful way and gave some good life lessons.I think the only downfall of the drama is the overarching plot between two characters wasn't very interesting and paled in comparison to the suicide aspect in present day. Part of me feels like the drama should have been 20 episodes and they could have included some more cases who added a more complex backstory to two of the characters.

Overall great story, but be ready with tissues!
It's been a while since I genuinely enjoyed a Kdrama without losing interest in the middle. Maybe it's because of the pacing or the style with each episode focusing on one particular character's story, but every episode was intense, nail-biting and exciting. It's very refreshing to see Rowoon in a role really different from extraordinary you, and his childish playful and cute side was very welcome in this mostly emotionally draining series.The casting was perfect and I believe every single one who appeared in this show gave full justice to their role, and a special shoutout to all the guest appearances whose performances really took this show to another level.
The story was well paced, and I really enjoyed the suspense throughout regarding the main characters and their pasts. However, since it's a drama that deals with suicides and suicide risks, it is really heavy in terms of the topic chosen and the violence depicted, so if you are not comfortable with that, this is not a how for you.
Overall, I truly enjoyed this show, and I would highly recommend to anyone who needs a break from rom-coms in the kdrama environment. I promise you won't regret this watch!

We are the only ones who can save ourselves.
It only takes a few words to give your loved ones the will to live again. The weight of your words can make someone happy or want themselves to die. I think a maximum of people want to commit suicide in their life, some give up on this urge, some don't. The show told us that our words matter the most to our loved ones. That's why we should always be there for our loved ones, listen to their problems, be there for them, comfort them if you can't then contract a psychologist.Choi Joon Woong reaction after seeing Jumadeung.
Love the Jumadeung office elevator.
Director expression why the RM team wanted to go to the past to buy chicken.
Choi Joon Woong childish behavior upon seeing luxurious cars in Jumadeung then becoming disappointed that they were riding an old car was cute.
Loved Park Joong Gil & the fighting scenes.
Loved episode 6 ending scene in which all the escort team came to show respect to the freedom fighter, even the director also came.
Laughed at the scene where Lim Ryung-gu gave the interview in episode 7, also slapped Koo Ryun gave to the interviewer.
Choi Joon Woong & Lim Ryung-gu arm wrestle was ridiculously funny.
People are too much obsession with maintaining a thin figure. Sometimes it may lead to health sickness even excess dieting can lead to death. Fat shaming, loneliness, work pressure or not getting work can also lead to suicide cases. People love to fat shame others without any reason. The number of people doing this is high. Saying something hurtful to someone is easy, but helping them is hard. We should come forward to help people.
Poor Direction had to sign hundreds of documents.
Laughed at the time when Choi Joon Woong hugged & kissed Lim Ryung-gu in his sleep, the reaction he gave afterward is hilarious.
Loved how Park Joong Gil punished the rapist.
It’s cute & funny at the same time as Choi Joon Woong wanted to hug Koo Ryun & Lim Ryung-gu both, but they kept on pushing him, but in the end he did it, their expressions were priceless.
Loved how Director & Park Joong Gil twisted the truth.
Laughed how Lee Ryung-gu stopped Ryu Cho Hui from eating Choi Joon Woong food, but then his expression while tasting it.

WONDERFUL
The final IS GREAT, the whole movie is like that. It is with emotions and situations that show pure reality, because this is how it happens nowadays. It Is a series that made me believe in destiny and soul mates. It's very cool. I like it all, it’s a 10 without mistakes. It is a series that you cry, laugh, but also gives you confidence. I know it’s not possible, but I really want Jung-gil and Ryeon to be together again. Their story ended too quickly. You have to watch the series.I hope that everyone in the film is happy, as we should be. We must trust ourselves and accept and love ourselves as we are. If we don't do it, how can others? We are all different, and that makes us special. The world will always criticize us, whether we are fuller or thinner. They don't care what the world feels. But always remember that you don't have to care about what the world thinks, we just have to believe in ourselves. They, in their turn, have been hurt and let down, that's why they hurt others. This does not excuse their words and behavior, but we must also understand them. Nobody is completely happy in this world, except that we are good actors and know how to hide our feelings and thoughts well. Be happy! Love you!

Press on, for you are worth it.
This is my highest rating for a drama yet. This show explores the complexity of human life. Everyone yearns to take their life because life’s stresses can be just so taxing. This show, demonstrated through 16 episodes, the reason why life is valued so heavily: and that is because the future is uncertain. As once suicidal, this show has piqued my interest in the afterlife; but more importantly, taught me the ways and means of life. Life is fragile, life can be fluid, life’s path is based on the decisions you make. The decisions you make today will affect the outcomes of tomorrow. Every move you make has an impact, no matter how big or small the move is. What an impactful movie that illustrated all these facts; irrefutable truth to me.Plot: Extremely well-developed, and intricate. There is a climax, and a resolution. Interesting links of the Grim Reaper’s past and how they affect their emotions and personalities. Through 16 episodes, they ran through the so important cases that are hardly mentioned in society today. What are we living for? How can we better ourselves? How can we find help? Why not let tomorrow be a dream instead? This show explains that dying in such a fashion (suicide) will not make anything better; and the “benefits” like escaping one’s misery is extremely short-lived. Life is precious. Life is worthy. And you are worthy of this gift. This show explicitly showcases all possible instances of when, why, how, and what kind of people can have suicidal thoughts (of course, not limited to them only), but it has the impact of empowering other people to be more alert; to be more aware of the people around them—and how to provide aid. Impressions on the audience is highly vivid: particularly the veteran, eating disorder case, as well as the animal case.
Scriptwriting: Well-written. Meaningful dialogues were used in exploring characterisation of individuals in the drama. Everything had a logical flow to it. My only slight issue with scriptwriting was when some plot digression did seem slightly abrupt; but not abrupt enough to undermine message and impact of the drama, hence only penalised slightly. Some sequential flow seemed hazardous too, but they were explained all the end—perhaps a case of wanting to induce suspense but unsuccessful, in my opinion. Though, overall, ideas still flowed smoothly. One thing I would do if i were the producer would be to add that element of what happens to the star and Jun Woong, making the script advanced to a greater depth. That would, in my opinion, explore the day-to-day lives of everyone and how Jun Woong as a character stands out, and how more people should strive to model him in today’s society.
Music/SFX: Highly appropriate, apt selection. Extremely well-catered to the sequential flow of the story, as well as the tension/intensity/drama it wishes to amplify. Suitable for the show, very well chosen. Job well done, editing team.
Believability & Acting: I have to applaud their acting. Acting felt genuine, characterisation in personalities of different individuals, especially the main characters, were very true to their role played and the message they wish to portray to the viewers. Nothing felt exaggerated, and it was a joy to watch them take their role so seriously to the extent I would forget it was a drama at times. Impact on audience is also amazing, as the drama attempts to convey the message of living on consistently throughout all 16 episodes.
*Side note: This is also the first drama that every episode has a rating above 8.5 from me. I always will have a few episodes that slip and hence, fall under 7/10. But what amazed me was how consistent the drama was, nothing seemed out of the ordinary, and this drama has definitely surprised me with how good the scriptwriting is. Every idea portrayed has a link to the other, if not, it is a complex analysis of how one can suicide. Many cases arise, and this drama successfully addresses them. For more information, you may see my scores for the respective episodes at the bottom. They are rated using the following rubric;
Plot, Scriptwriting (Meaningful dialogues, especially), Chemistry (if any), Acting, Believability, Music & SFX, Editing/Props/Atmosphere/Mood, Impact on audience/society (e.g. whether any of these will have a long-lasting change to be embraced), Rewatch value, and loopholes in plot (if any, as a deduction of the overall score).
Abbreviations:
*E = Episode
Rating:
E1 - 9/10
E2 - 10/10
E3 - 9/10
E4 - 8.5/10
E5 - 10/10
E6 - 10.5/10, still my favourite episode. Heart-wrecking & touching. You may see my review on this episode for a more in-depth reasoning for why I felt it deserves above 10/10.
E7 - 9.5/10
E8 - 9.5/10
E9 - 9.5/10
E10 - 8.5/10, pales in comparison to Episodes aforementioned.
E11 - 9.25/10
E12 - 10/10
E13 - 8.75/10
E14 - 10.25/10, an amazing episode that explores even Grim Reaper’s have their past. My review is also up for this episode.
E15 - 9.75/10
E16 - 9.5/10, interesting ending to the whole drama. Sweet. In my opinion, could’ve been explored further with Jun Woong, hence slight deduction.

Something out of this world
TW// !! Even though it's a REALLY good drama I wouldn't recommend it to someone who gets triggered by topics related to self-harm, suicide!!I'm not good at writing reviews so I will make it quick.
This drama has never disappointed me. I loved how stories change in each episode but yet the main story is smooth and interesting. The main cast fits the roles perfectly and I fell in love with the actors in the first minutes.
Each story is presented with such accuracy and caution and that's the thing that made me cry my eyes out so many times. Directors remember how sensitive the suicide topic is and brings awareness to mental illnesses while showing it from different perspectives. 'Tomorrow' will definitely leave you reflecting about the meaning of life.
For those who like to laugh while watching a good drama you won't be disappointed too. There's a lot of interactions between the team that are full of inside jokes. The ending is really cute and satisfied me.
It's not common for me but I'm giving it 10/10. I wish we could see the actors in one more season! :)

The Main characters story came bit too late.
I am no expert on mental health or depression so my review is based on my opinion as a viewer . I’ll divide the review in two parts; one on the main characters and the other on the suicide cases in the show.So let’s start with the theme of the show, suicide. Based on my experience and knowledge , the urge to end one’s life comes and goes in waves for those who are suffering from it. This condition is more common in people who suffer from depression and anxiety. Hence it’s like a disease that needs treatment and can’t be cured and fixed in days, weeks or even months. It takes people years to get better. So ,if someone is feeling better today it doesn’t mean that the urge has completely gone away. It can always return back. Yes, words do have an impact but the disease necessarily don’t always happen because of the dramatic and drastic things as shown in the drama. It’s the little, mundane things in life that sometimes cause it. Some people endure it while others find it difficult to. The drama bases people’s urge to die on a single tragic event or chain of events. And that isn’t accurate. Neither it can be cured that quickly as shown in the drama. The stories were drastic and over dramatic in my opinion. Only few stood reasonable to me. The fried chicken episode was the one that is relatable as many people suffer from unemployment and failure. It leads them to think nothing better will come in the future. The girl who was victim of sexual assault portrayed the victims of the rape accurately and story was also meticulous.
And about the main characters, The story of grim reapers didn’t exist in the present time as we only see past of the characters. but I was more interested in the grim reaper world and their story in the present time. The drama was all about the victims not the main characters. Hence I feel bit disconnected with the characters. I am very dissatisfied with the way park jong gil and ms.koo’s story ended. They made such a big deal out of their past connection and when he finally knew, nothing really changed for them. They didn’t even had a proper conversation about it. It was not satisfying at all. If this was gonna happen, they should’ve revealed their past in the middle of the show. Why drag it all the way to the end. The last episode also had me wanting to see the thread of fate between choi joon wong and Ryu cho hui. They would’ve made a cute pair, but tht part was left to our imagination sadly.

Vale la pena verla
Es una serie con historias que retratan los miedos de la sociedad coreana, sus luchas y guerras eternas que poseen como sociedad y humanos, adicional como conflictos de su historia la formaron y siguen repercutiendo en las memorias de su nación, una serie que nos hace llorar y estar pendientes, por momentos se vuelve monótona pero con un mensaje, lo único que reprocho es el punto de vista espiritual el cual es basofia para mi razonamiento por lo cual la historia de volvió algo engorrosa por mi punto espiritual sobre el suicidio y lo que pasa cuando morimos, vale la pena verla claro que si, no importa que edad o momento estés esta historia si eres asiático te tocara mucho y si eres occidental te abrira los ojos frente a lo que viven muchas personas en esa nación tanto laboral como estudiantil, la vida no es fácil pero aveces las malas intenciones nubla el amanecer que nos abraza a todos, estos personajes son tus memorias y ganas de crecer y que todo el mundo sea feliz y poder elevarte a ser tu mejor version siempre.Nunca es tarde para disfrutarla y reflexionar sobre otras realidades y vivir algo de fantasia con los grim raper.

Now kidding aside, this may be the first KDrama in a long while that I genuinely enjoyed and didn't make me feel like dropping it or that I didn't skip a lot just to get it over with. There was no character who's too arrogant or too dumb that it annoyed the hell out of me and ruined the show for me, thank god. While I did cry at some point, the drama wasn't as heavy as I thought it would be. Maybe because Joon Woong was spontaneous funny that he became the perfect comic relief, which I personally found nice.
As for the ending, I thought I was going to be underwhelmed because it felt like the last episode went fast. The closure could have been better specially for Ryeon and Jung Gil. Was I really disappointed though? Well, I guess when I saw the last scene, I just thought, 'fuck making sense out of everything'. I was just happy to see them all happy. Or more like, all it took was to see Jung Gil talking to them good naturedly for me to forget getting disappointed. It was nice seeing him loosen up in the end even if it just for a few seconds.
Overall, I'm satisfied. It really has been a while. I'm glad I gave this one a try.

may we call them "suicide squad" even when their goal is different?
You can enjoy this drama to the fullest because there are great actors and the story never get boring. In every episode there a "case" that the protagonists must solve meanwhile their own personal stories unfold and with every episode you can't wait to know more and more. The female lead is strong, gorgeous and vengeful and you can't help but fall in love with the seriousness she does her work. Also you will watch every episode drooling to know about her past. But beware! You will need a lot of tissues for every single episode. Prepare to cry because the main theme this drama talk about is suicide and how to prevent them. Also Rowoon and Lee Soo Hyuk are a pleasure for the eyes.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
