Synopsis
Kang Jung Hwa (Jang Shin Young) is a promising young stage actress who has a chance encounter on the subway with Dr. Min Ki Beom (Ryu Soo Young), a brilliant young neurosurgeon. Soon after, she collapses for reasons no one can explain. This event starts a cascade of memories of past experiences from previous lives. Jung Hwa then undergoes treatment by hypnosis for insomnia with psychologist Dr. Lee Soo Hyeon (Park Ye Jin) at the suggestion of fellow actor and boyfriend, Min Ki Soo (Lee Jong Soo). Unexplained also is the powerful attraction between Jung Hwa and Ki Beom. Things are further complicated for them all by the fact that Ki Soo is Dr. Min’s brother and Dr. Lee is Dr. Min’s fiancee. Jung Hwa chooses to delve into her past life memories and discovers that all four, herself, Soo Hyeon, Ki Beom and Ki Soo have lived past lives of intertwined fates. She searches for the answer to why these four are reborn over and over only to find each other again and continue the cycle of misfortune.

I am surprised that very little is mentioned about this drama whose subject matter makes it unique. Reincarnation is rarely explored in film. Although it is a little slow at times, I feel that the subject was well portrayed, and it makes one think a little about past lives and how they influence our present life and relationships.

Likewise, I was surprised to find one commentary only when I myself cant stop watching and savoring the great storyline and great acting of the cast especially Ryu Soo Young. I really admire him because he is a great actor and I’m glad that he is now the main cast. Great chemistry also with his leading lady.

I believe in reincarnation ’cause i in myself can prove it,being reborn is such having a responsibility to yourself or to someone else,maybe you made a mistake before and you have to correct at present or made a promise to someone that you cant give your heart at that time.There is alot of reasons why we are here now, the most important is do not make things that will make you regrets for your whole life it is the only way your soul rest at the end .
