Amanhã (2022)

Mature drama, for mature audiences.

In my opinion this drama is really really interesting, to the unique backstories to the main 3 characters. The stories are really informative and it uses scenarios from real life problems, and shows them, without glamorising it.

Noh Eun-Bi's Case really stood out for me , it was nice to see a victim of bullying be happy, after all the years of torment and mental frustration. K-Drama's often normalise bullying but I think in this drama it was particularly special, as the bully got what they deserve, nothing.

Another case that really, made me cry out of happiness and frustration was Namgung Jae-Soo's Case, the backstory of a deprived family, who's dad just wants to make his family happy. I think this was particularly special as the connection with Choi Jun-Woong and Naming Jae-Soo is really special and Jun-Woong just wants the best for his friend and wants to know what's behind his 'happy' face. It was a really nice ending for the family and Koo Ryeon, really wanted to make the child happy, despite her cold appearance.

I didn't like it and had to pause a few times while watching. I began the drama in october 22 and finished it in january 23, this means all. the stories are hard (after all these are suicide stories) but that wasn't the problem. there is too much cliches and all the things that happen to the characters aren't well bound together. it lacks this little something that makes you want to watch the next episode right away. I finished it just because I wanted to know how the story ends.

not for children or sensitive people because there is a lot of violence, sex, drug and so on.
when to watch: I wouldn't recommend

Be strong for your tomorrow

Tomorrow is a different K drama than the usual ones we see. Dealing with sensitive cases like bullying, rumours that leads individuals to end their life is something that has become a harsh reality of the society, that is showcased in Tomorrow, in an effective way.

A Team of 3 people (2 Grim Reapers and 1 Half/half) are on a rescuing spree of those who wish to give up on their life due to the harsh treatment in the society. Although it's not as serious as it should have been, considering the seriousness of the issue. However Tomorrow, handles the theme effectively and every episode is an emotional ride in understanding each individual's life and purpose.

Tomorrow finale bowed out with a sweet last episode as best as it could. Although some of the episodes in the series have been quite problematic, the series had its moments and the episodes surrounding the main characters were splendid. The soundtrack was good, the acting of the characters could have been better.
It had moments where it shone and considering some of its weaker episodes, the end was rather satisfactory considering the finale felt a little bit rushed, without exploring more about Re yeoon and Jung Gil.

My Rating : 8/10

“Can I be the one to make the flowers on your tree bloom?

As a person who struggles with depression, anxiety and was once a person who thought about su1cid$ almost everyday since i was 16, this drama may be the therapy you were asking for.
I need to be honest, there are extremely heavy scenes in this drama, and they talk about extremely hard things for people who deal with mental problems and so on, but it’s definitely a must to watch. It will make you cry, it will make you angry and it will definitely make you feel better. The power of your words is literally so damn important, words can change so many things, words can change us. Our actions and everything we make in this world will affect someone. This drama made me realize so many things, and i was already 100% sure that i wanted to be a psychologist and now am even more sure. All characters have amazing stories and the plot is sincerely beautiful. The main actors did an amazing job portraying their characters and their emotions and you love every single one of them. Words can save people but they can also destroy them. And depression and sadness isn’t only limited to humans, our animals have emotions too and they only want what’s best for us.
“Tomorrow” teach us. It change us. It show us how society really is, it shows us how disgusting people can be, how humans can be such mean and hateful things. But it also show us the importance of enjoying the sunset, of being surrounded by our loved ones, of how important is to fight and keep fighting now matter what. Nobody is saying that is going to be easy, it’s going to be hard, but is the only way we have, you are not alone, remember that. Live your life without regrets, karma will came, they will pay for everything.
Not gonna lie, i already knew what the end was going to be like because well, it’s not like he could have stayed like that lmao, but i loved it nevertheless, and i loved how every single person fell in love with Joonwoong, he’s such a cutie pie. And how he still managed to help the team while being alive and how they were already making plans for him.
And last but not least, the quotes that made me cry a river while watching:
“Thank you for everything” + “Take care of yourself, sir” + “Why are you crying when I’m going somewhere nice?”
&
“Let’s go now. Where warm spring will greet us”.

Even so, you should live!

Trust me it is such a beautiful drama. The bad thing is, it is way too heavy to watch. It straight up pull strings of your heart with all the harsh realities of the world.

It will make you realise that the world is not bad beacuse of "today". It does also makes us realise that "those who commit suicide are the ones who wanted to live so badly".

The fact that this drama doesn't have any actual villains but it was just the society and the trails we have to go through just to live. It was also very true that the "pain is the essence of life" we should live beacuse the weather is nice today.

It leaves a deep scar into us during each episode but will also give us hope that those who done wrong are the ones that will for sure suffer in one way or the other. I also trust this reality. South Korea and anyone who wants to give up on his life should have a strong belief in destiny and karma. Trust the universe and it will answer your prayers.

Suicide is never the option its just a escape from today but not forever. So please don't give up on your loved one's. Dont leave them just beacuse you have it hard.

It also highlights the fact that it is so difficult to control your own emotions sometimes. It highlights the hypocrisy of a human rage, resentment and anger that he is willing to kill, sacrifice or die just for his pride and ego.

All the grim reapers in the drama was in punishment because they let their rage consume them and regretted it for an eternity.

Best drama

Refreshing and fun concept with a very good cast

The first two episodes definitely set this drama to a good start. We've seen many types of Grim Reaper-themed and similar kdramas but I personally hadn't seen any focusing on Grim Reapers that actually protect people from death before. It's a very unique concept and has a lot to explore.

We have many things to look forward to with this drama, starting from the backstory of Koo Ryeong - where she came from, what she did to end up there, what her purpose is - to Choi Junwoong's adventure as a "half-half" Grim Reaper, as well as who Ryunggoo is searching for, the story between Koo Ryeong and Joonggil, and of course the side stories that we'll be getting with every new case.

I personally enjoyed the first two eps a lot, but also think that this could be a bit hard to watch for someone who is struggling with suicide, or has suicidal thoughts, like the content warning at the beginning of ep 1 stated. The bullying scenes in the first eps were a bit too much, even for me who has seen many high school-themed kdramas where everything is about bullying. So I'd recommend you to be careful with this drama if these topics trigger you.

About the bullying scenes - it bothers me that nowadays it's very hard to avoid bullying scenes when watching a kdrama. Even something unrelated to high school or bullying (like a Grim Reapers kdrama) will have at least one scene or mention of high school bullying. Of course it's not present in every kdrama, but it is in a considerable amount. I know bullying is a serious problem in Korea and that's exactly why they show it, but I wonder if they really do anything positive by doing it. They're just showing how much the victims suffer, but in reality it doesn't really contribute much in preventing any more bullying.

Anyway, that was just a random thought. 'Tomorrow' is definitely raising my expectations as there are many things to look forward to in the plot, and that's what I will be doing for sure!

PS. All the main characters' names are very similar to each other and it looks funny in Korean (구련, 준웅 중길 령구).
