Tomorrow With You (2017)

The Underrated Gem: Tomorrow With You

This drama was such an entertaining watch, not for a second was I bored or distracted and for someone like me who has an attention span of a bee it sure is a feat of its own.

Character Development: this was the finest aspect of Tomorrow With You for me because they were able to nail this and with such finesse. The plot and actors collectively complimented the subtle yet clearly distinguishable personality change of every character involved with a justifiable pace that didn't feel too rushed or unbelievable as it tends to happen in most cases. They stuck to keeping them in a grayish spectrum of persona, not too good and not too evil either just a bunch of realistic lives that at some point everyone can relate with.
‌The main lead went to being from extremely self engrossed to a bit disoriented and then to being desperately besotted while still clinging to his selfish gains throughout.

‌The antagonist was very well scripted that at times I kinda tried to justify his actions because he wasn't a beast on a murdering spree from the beginning, just a lil' too ambitious for his own good and that is exactly what struck a chord with me because when has ever demanding what you rightfully deserve labeled as a crime?

‌The female lead was such a cutie, eccentric and cringey too at times but a cutie nonetheless. I truly get where she was coming from. Getting used to rejection from family, friends and random strangers can take a toll on anyone and then suddenly, out of the blue being accepted and loved not to mention the new experience of martial bliss can make you a tad high on happiness if not completely cuckoo in the heads. Ma Rin proved to be such an entertainer and yes, am gonna defend her craziness because she was anything but irritating. She made me laugh my guts out while simultaneously dealing with heavy emotions like depression, disbelief and determination with such gusto that boy, it truly had me. She'll be my favorite FL for a while now, that's for sure.


Plot: I'm a sucker for sci-fi and on your face romance more so if both combined so it was a given already that the plot was going to keep me busy. Not gonna lie the entire concept got way too complicated in the midway than it was initially supposed to be but that's okay, it made me sit up and focus on every scene and timeline as if my life depended on it (cause the lead's sure did lol).
It was such an heart wrenching story sprinkled with humour and overall wholesomeness of developing human relations that despite some plotline loopholes in the end I was ready to overlook every flaw of this show just because the presentation and execution was done perfectly.


Acting: Might I just say, that I'm in love with Shin Min Ah for her work in this one. This is my first drama of hers and man, am I awestruck by her beauty and charm already.
Lee Je Hoon brought a dash of happy surprise as well with his immaculate acting. Mentioning the obvious here but I couldn't resist, these guys had such a rocking chemistry, their lovey dovey marriage even the lovers' quarrels appeared so believable that I was wishing for it to be true in both real and reel life; it doesn't hurts that they both look extremely good together either.
Jo Hee Park appeared somewhat awkward and hasty with her portrayal as the female second lead.
I find Kang Ki Doong, Han Chul Jo and Kim Ye Won annoyingly cute almost everywhere they go so, there's nothing new about it.


Extra: How the hell was everyone on this drama so gorgeously dressed? I mean hats off to the costume designers, who came up with such brilliant chic yet classy looking clothing for every character. I almost wanted to steal them denim jackets and overcoats virtually (don't blame me the entire thing was on futuristic hopes and wishful thinking).

In conclusion, the show is criminally underrated for no reason whatsoever and if you're looking for a heavy romance with an equally heavy plot well, look no further!

i really loved this drama so
it's really underrated

1st what encourage me to watch it without hesitating that i watched
(beyond the clouds) & i loved it so much,
so i searched for another dramas for the same writer (Heo Sung-hye)
& he didn't disappoint me at all
if u loved (beyond the clouds) drama then u definitely 'll love this one

the only thing that i couldn't understand well that at the beginning of the drama i thought that there were only 2 (Lee Je Hoon) the present & the future one, then i got surprised that there were 3 ..
past, present & future
i got confused a little by the dates & the 3 characters

but that didn't stop me at all to finish it

it's really smooth, simple & very heartwarming with lots of touchy moments

although there were not much events in this drama but definitely not boring at all (in the contrary)

it's talking about a time traveler man who wants to change his destiny
then he knew that his destiny was related with some woman he must find,
at the beginning he found that she is not his type at all
after a while he falls for her madly & struggling to save her & try to change what estimated for them

really highly recommended to those who love rom. drama
i really enjoyed it much

Tomorrow with You is pure romance. Even if you do not really care about the time travel aspect at all and just love romance this could be a great drama for you. Right now I am forcing my siblings to watch it because I think it hit the spot so awesomely. So, far they enjoy it.


Time travel is at time a hard thing to get right. Sometimes, if you use time travel too much in a drama it will end up not being even suspenseful and the audience will get very tired of the fact that all situations can be solved with time travel. If on the other hand you use a lack of time travel it will become only the backdrop of the story and your story could have easily gone without that backdrop. Instead, you need to make sure that your story could not work without time travel but not everything can be solved by time travel. Make rules and stick to them. Do not change them at the last minute.

This story got time travel right. Plus, it had a creative way to put in certain elements that left us intrigued on what was happening next. The casting although at first I didn't understand grew on me and loved the romance. Overall, this is a drama I would watch again and again and never get bored. It's sweet romantic and has the element of time travel!

I thought this would be a drama about time travel, however I did not think it was the main focus, but attention I think this isn't bad.

Let's face it, Tomorrow with you has a slow story at the beginning, but that all events will intersperse in the future and that everything, even everything in the drama has a reason, and it's worth being mentioned.

The romantic part of the story was really the most realistic I've seen to this day in dramas, I found a bit lame all their actions "where is my wife?? " But I laught so hard it was very funny, so I thought is not lame is cute they are cute. The drama dealt well with this relationship and its gradual development.
Aside from the problem that will lead to the action itself, I found that this drama speaks much more about the fact that we ourselves, who do not travel to the future, but are still worried about it, and that we will somehow forget the present, when we need to be happy.

The actors' work was very good, of all of them, the emotions were there and I loved it. The as the chemistry between the main, and everyone around them have a good relationship.

As for the soundtrack, yes, I liked it, it's composed of calmer but well-played songs.
Rewatch Value? Hum maybe with someone you have not seen.

This is a really good watch. I loved the storyline. I wished I could be a time traveler. I love this kind of storyline. It had me confused so I really had to go back and rewatch some of the episodes a few times. I get it now. Going back to the past and then going to the future had me so confused. After I figured it out, I was into the story. This is one of those dramas you can’t skip any episodes, or you will miss important parts… or ask yourself “why did this happen?” I really loved the two main actors/actresses, Lee Je Hoon (Yoo So Joon) and Shin Min Ah (Song Ma Rin) did very well. I felt sad for Song Ma Rin… I cried somewhat. I have to applaud Shin Min Ah for taking a hard role to play. If you see this drama, you will understand why I said it. I applaud the writers, directors, supporting actors/actresses, and everyone else. Thank you!

Perfection!

I didn't have high expectations of this drama at all. I just had an instinct this would be really good because it's Shin Min-ah after all.

It is slow paced and melancholic and I love it just the way it was. Watching these kind of dramas makes you feel you are journeying with the characters and not just watching them. You feel every kind of emotion they invoke.

I never really noticed the soundtrack because I am so engrossed with their lines and acting. This is one drama I never skipped a second even once. I've seen hundreds of dramas now and even top grossing ones sometimes would have scenes that are repetitive or frustrating you just want to skip it but in this flick, I want to savor each and every scene. Even the flashbacks, are not tiresome, you actually wanted to re-watch it.

The last episode was amazing! The first few minutes will give you sad vibes feeling this will have a tragic ending. When Ma-rin's dad made the sacrifice, you'll feel really blue but then a few minutes after that you'll laugh out loud because they'll be talking about sperms the next scene.

Jee-hon and Min-ah's chemistry is perfect! 💕

This drama was something unique, something i hadn’t seen before. When i started watching this drama it was honestly mostly just because of Shin Min ah, but as i kept watching it, i actually came to like it quite a lot.

When i saw that this drama was described as a melodrama i thought it would be boring, but although it is a melodrama the characters are quite quirky and fun and there’s actually quite a lot of comedy in this drama in general for a melodrama, which made it easier to watch. I know that a lot of people said that they thought it was sad, and although it's not the saddest drama that i've watched, i definitely felt the tears coming at one or two scenes in this drama.

Story:
A time travelling CEO sees that his future is looking tough and marries a failed actress to solve it. Although the plot wasn’t played out the way i expected it would be, i liked the drama. I love the idea of the drama and seeing him travel back and forth in time and trying to fix things and change the future for the better was just really interesting, and you’ve gotta love "Bap Soon". The only thing i would say is that i feel like it's sorta slow at times, but not to the point where it becomes a problem.

Acting:
The acting was great. Shin Min ah was amazing as always and Lee Je hoon did great too, i hadn’t seen any of his past dramas so i didn’t know about him before watching this, but i sure will watch some of his dramas now. The romance was great to, the chemistry and the kissing scenes were great, and they truly acted like they were a real married couple.
Overall the casting was just really good, i didn’t have a problem with any of the actors or actresses at least.

Music:
Very fitting to the mood of the drama, nothing i would listen to outside of this drama, the ost’s are just kinda slow, but as i said, it fit very well with the mood of the drama.

I started this for Lee Je Hoon, and then I stayed for him and Shin Min Ah. What a beauty! I'm a little in love with her now. (But not him. I will not admit to anything). 

I'm also in love with Song Ma Rin, whom Min Ah brought to life so beautifully. Ma Rin was such a mess at the beginning, the former child actor and drunkard who was always humiliating herself. She wasn't totally pathetic, though; she told people off and stood up for herself. Sometimes she gave me secondhand embarrassment and was a little annoying, but I never hated her. I could sympathize with her. Then she blossomed into this confident professional, achieving a dream that made her glow with pride. She really earned the name flower girl 💓🌸

Ma Rin was the girl with a difficult past, So Joon the boy with a bleak future, the two of them united by a single tragedy. Their romance was as sweet and heartbreaking as the one in Tunnel, where a man fights to leave the future to reunite with his wife in the past. That one will be my forever favorite, but this one comes in at a close second. These two were also disgustingly cute! It was excessive, but still very endearing to me. 

I'm still a little confused how So Joon became a young, rich CEO but it's hilarious how he never did any work! Like Ma Rin he had his unlikable moments but I found him fascinating: how he got so wealthy; his time traveling; his stoic personality. It was that stoicism that made Je Hoon's performance as good as it was, he just looked cool. 

The male and female wardrobes were incredible but Ma Rin definitely gets the edge because of those sweaters + coats. 

I think the Yong Jin storyline could have been handled a lot better, it added danger & mystery to an already complex love story. I wish Doo Shik's storyline had also been explored in depth. 

Besides the convoluted plot and other issues, I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected to! It made me gasp, cringe, sigh, cry...all in all a good time.

I am impressed how much i ended up liking the show!!

Ok so I will keep it short...

When I fist heard about this drama I wasn't really sure if it would be my cup of tee. But then I still decided to watch it.

First I wasn't too hyped up about it, but after watching it till the end,, I am so glad that I did watch it.

The story in my opinion is different from the dramas I had watched before. Even after watching it I fist only considered it as an OKAY show,, later on the OST kept on stuck in my head as well as the story. In the end I just re-watched the drama again, and again. By now I have a watched it 6 times and I am happy about it.

So all together,, I really recommend this drama to everyone. It's cute, the story is amazing, a little different and I actually liked the ending. :))
