This is one of the amazing k-drama i must say. when i watch in the first ep. it was fantastic, so many question will enter and you would watch the whole story till the end to answer your question……. a lots of revealing secrets, and it will make you think how important life is and so family to you. lesson learn is really great. everything was unexpected and story is great, really great. if you are looking for the originality then watch this you wont regret it.

i also like this series except for one thing: ji hyun borrows the body of
yi kyung in the morning. so, she is working at the coffee shop the whole day and goes back to return the body at around midnight when yi kyung will work until 8-9. so, the physical body of yi kyung has no REST at all. she should have been dead from EXHAUSTION>

May 3rd, 2012 at 12:15 pm

These are the three people who shed pure tears for Ji Hyun; Han Kang, Shin In Jung and Park Seo Woo (not so sure because I am not so familiar with the casts’ name in Korean. Her two best friends and Han Kang were the three people who shed pure tears for her. At first, I thought it was Song Yi Kyung but it turned out that she’s her sister so it can’t be.

Like this drama very much though I was not able to download ep 8, 15, & 17. I’m going to watch it again & again during weekend and I’m going to recommend it to my friends. Like the lesson that life is so short, we have to use it wisely while we are on earth.
