Tomorrow (2022)

Unbelievably beautiful and heartbreaking!!

I knew what I was getting into when beginning the series, yet I wasn't prepared for it mentally. Every episode broke my heart and stitched it together. I finished the series yesterday, and couldn't sleep last night because everything was going crazy in my head. You know how it feels like you experienced everything by being there in the show, that's how I felt.

Overall, the plot, cast, acting, everything was spot on. Every character ate their role and did their best. For some, this series might feel more personal, like it did to me, but I hope you all can gain new hope of living a better life after watching Tomorrow.

In real life, no Grim Reaper is coming to save someone, so help each other, be polite and kind to everyone, and please get professional help when needed. Don't suffer alone, coz you are not alone.

2nd Realistic Drama for me

seriously, before 2022 ended, i was planning to watch this drama, but many assignment was waiting for me!!??

And... finally!! in february 2023, i recently watched it!!

I don't expected too much because i already saw many videos in TikTok

Tadaaa!! This drama is really incredibleee for me!!

I feel mixed feelings in every episodes, especially episodes 1, and the plot was aaaaaaaa

Really touching? and in every episodes has many stories which related in real life

for acting, i shouldn't doubt with (main character) Kim Hee Sun, Lee SooHyuk, Rowoon and Yoon Ji On (i recently know Yoon Ji On and woaahh his acting ?) hehe

for soundtrack, honestly i didn't really listen so i have no comment

for story, although there many stories touched my heart,
(i don't know if this is spoiler or not)

in last episode, hmm some scene not realistic for solved the problem, but yeah, i think it doesn't really matter for the plot story, so it's okay

So overall for me 9,5/10


*note: sorry my english not really good*

Queria poder esquecer para ve-lo novamente, amei.

Amei esse drama, história muito diferente, temas necessários de se tratar. Infelizmente me deu gatilho, mas eu entendo que são tópicos importantes a serem tratados com indivíduos e sociedade. A arte reflete a sociedade, pude ver como a saúde mental é um tópico tabu na Coreia do Sul.

O enredo do casal de ceifadores é muito bom, me prendeu muito, já dava para imaginar que seria daquela forma, porém eu gostaria que tivessem terminado juntos novamente, mas a lição da série é justamente valorizar a nossa vida e as oportunidades que ela nos dá, o final deles foi bem digno e tranquilo.

Gostei do final, foi bem divertido e deixa com um gostinho de "quero mais".

There's no Tomorrow. It was all for Today

One of my favorite series.

I started watching it because I kept seeing the preview on Netflix and after a few minutes I fell in love with it. I devoured every episode and couldn't wait to see the next one.

The theme of death, grim reaper and the afterlife is difficult to deal with without ending up in banality or something that doesn't make the slightest sense. This series managed to treat that perfectly, treated suicide seriously and led to reflection.
The actors did a great job, managing to impersonate even the most complicated and controversial characters.

I wish I could forget it totally to be able to look at every episode and be amazed and moved every time.

Heart-warming and heart-wrenching

Tomorrow maybe not be a perfect drama but every story told an important theme and is relevant today. It really demonstrates the reality of life. It shows the importance of life and that each person carries a story.

The cast also including our cameo’s every week did a phenomenal job, however I do wish LSH had more screen time. This drama was an emotional rollercoaster that had a solid premise with the OST and cinematography to match. The let down for me was the balance between the ‘case of the week’ plot and the overarching reaper/Jumadeung plot line. This drama would’ve been a hundred times better if it were mostly about Jumadeung politics/world-building and Ryeon and Joong-gil’s past.

Specifically, the way that RY and JG’s story was wrapped up - whilst I can appreciate the decision to not have them get together again in line with the severed threads theme, I just wish we’d been given more time to see JG regain his memories of the past and see the two of them properly get closure from one another. Ryeon and Joon-gil's story was the best part of the drama. It feels like the writers failed to make use of the amazing chemistry between KSH and LSH and its a shame that we only had two episodes devoted to them. Their story was beautiful and very tragic but meaningful with them using it to help people.

Everyone was connected to suicide and its consequences in their life. With the message of the drama, we see Ryeon had to come to peace with her own past, pains, and choices, like all of the survivors we have learned about thus far. Words can't describe the emotions we all felt while watching this series. The pain, the fear, the anger, the happiness, and the sadness when this drama ended. This drama gives more reasons to be aware of other people's feelings, but also our own. I'm glad I watched this drama

Tomorrow was an emotional rollercoaster that I am glad that I got on. It was from the very beginning, full of lore and story to unpack and instantly had me hooked. According to statistics, Korea is the leader in suicide rates and this group of Grim Reaper's help to bring that down. Dealing with heavy topics such as sa, bullying, miscarriage, etc.. it can be draining, but rewarding to watch.

-- Spoilers Below --

Goo Ryun is one of the most bad-ass female front leads I have ever seen in a drama. The way her character is written and her backstory adds such a layer of depth and Kim Hee Sun did an amazing job putting that all on display. Her pink hair and eyeshadow sticks out and her attitude is cold, but she cares deeply and loves saving others from the Hell that she went through.. literally. When it finally came to figuring out her entire backstory, I felt for her on another level than I already did. Her committing suicide, feeling like she had no other way to end her suffering, helped so much with how she saw and dealt with the people she was trying to save. I wish that her and Park Joong-Gil had gotten together in some sense again, but it felt good with the story as to how they left it since their fate had been severed when she died.

Choi Joon-Woong was an amazing character and I loved how deep he felt his feelings and let them show. He wasn't afraid to stand up for what he thought was wrong and right, and was never hesitant to help someone in need. Although he is only in the group temporary until his life is over, I wanted him to stay there forever sadly. I know he wanted to go back to his mom and live out the rest of his life, but being with Goo Ryun and Ryung-Gu he seemed to be so happy. I feel that although he is one of the main characters, the story doesn't follow his mysteries as much as it does the other reapers and their backstory. They just use him to tell and put together the puzzle of what happened hundred of years ago for them to get there. I did love how they threw in that he himself also had lived past lives and was intertwined with both Goo Ryun and Park Joong-Gil.

Lim Ryung-Gu had to of been my favorite character besides Goo Ryun. His backstory was incredibly heartbreaking and had me sobbing the entire time. His desire to see his mom and lead her safely and happily through her lives was so incredibly sweet. I wish that he could have been a little more prominent in the first few episodes, but after his backstory he pops up a lot more. Him finally getting to tell his mom and reunite with her and apologize was heartwarming and I was so glad that after many decades he was able to get the closure that he needed to end his pain. I loved his attitude that he had for the victims, and would do anything to make sure they were safe. He takes matters into his own hands, but always looks out for his friends and coworkers like they are family. I love how close he was with Joon-Woong and Goo Ryun. Her leading him to his end and to eventually work under her definitely added to their already close bond.

I had such a hard time liking Park Joong-Gil and then I started to like him right at the last 2 episodes. He is the collector of souls.. a very cold man that hardly shows any feelings other than distrust, disgust and disdain for anything and everything that gets in his way. I had hoped that they would get to his backstory and why he felt so drawn to Goo Ryun sooner, but it ties all up at the end of the show. He has been battling nightmares.. one that has Goo Ryun in it, but through constant miscommunication between the two of them and Goo Ryun making a deal to keep it a secret from him it ends in a mess that could've been awful. He has resentment for people that take their own life, and takes this out on Goo Ryun. Forcing her to watch a car run over the woman she is trying to prevent from taking her life. While she gets her revenge and he gets her almost sent back to Hell, Joon-Woong tells him to look for himself. He eventually figures out him and Goo Ryun were married and lovers, but when she took her life it wounded his soul so badly that he was still not over it 2 reincarnations later. He helps her to save the woman and they eventually forgive each other and end it on that he finally understands the importance of their team.

Breathtaking, emotional and beautiful

No imaginaba que este kdrama me haría sentir taaaaanto. Hubo un capítulo en especial que me hizo llorar mucho.

Me gusta demasiado que este drama hable sobre suicidio, pues es un tema que últimamente ha estado muy presente y del cual no se habla mucho.

Al principio me sacó de onda cómo hacían las intervenciones. Soy psicóloga y sentía que estaban haciendo TODO mal, hasta que el personaje de Rowoon llegó a aminorar todo.

Aún así, me habría gustado que se hablara sobre la terapia psicológica y su importancia después de haber pasado por un momento traumático como lo es el intento de suicidio.

Es un drama que enseña muchísimo, deja muchas lecciones de vida y te hace querer disfrutarla, querer ayudar a otros y tener un ojo en aquellos que tienes alrededor.

taking the concept of afterlife on another level

okay to start off...wonderful concept ! I have never gotten this emotional while watching a drama before. it was like ,I feeling the actual pain of the suicidal cases show in this drama ..the way my eyes were filled with tears on each case. even koo ryeon case ! she was in Soo much pain. the love she had for jungil and the way she hid it. how much pain would she have felt when the love of her life was right in front of her eyes ,but neither did he recognize her nor did he love her.He resented her ..they had a happy ending though! but I did not like the ending to be honest ! they shouldn't have made him rowoon forget about the time he spent with the grim reapers and jumadeung.like I felt like the whole point of drama was just like destroyed ..he doesn't remember all that time ? and if they made him forget because he knew grim reapers and all..why were all suicidal cases seeing and remembering grim reapers ..even the last singer ! she knew about everything. and she was his destiny so she can just meet him and like tell him everything!

Pas mal mais aurait pu être mieux

Après avoir lu beaucoup de critiques positives, je suis partie confiante dans ce drama, sûre que j’allais adorer.
Au final, j’ai aimé mais sans plus.

Les points forts : effectivement, les sujets traités sont souvent peu abordés dans les dramas, touchant et plein d’émotions. L’idée de faucheurs qui en fait sauvent des vies, j’ai adoré. Voilà une idée qui sortait un peu de l’ordinaire.

Les points faibles : Justement, sorti de cet émotionnel, pour moi, tout est superficiel. Rien n’a été développé et pourtant avec toutes ces idées, ils avaient matière à en faire quelque chose de spécial. Je suis en fait ressorti frustrée et sur ma faim de ce drama.
Ro Woon est extra mais son rôle peu approfondi. Les deux faucheuses tenues par Kim Hee Sun et Lee Soo Hyuk que j’adore, ont une histoire développée uniquement sur la fin, qui aurait pu être bien plus travaillée et être un vrai fil conducteur. J’adore Lee Soo Hyuk mais son rôle était trop léger dans ce drama. Il aurait pu en faire quelque chose d’extra si on lui en avait laissé l’opportunité.

Enfin la fin, ben… quelle fin en fait je dirais ?

Bref, du positif mais surtout de la déception pour moi, encore en décalé de la majorité des gens. Mais un drama ça reste personnel ;-)

There is light at the end of the tunnel

“Tomorrow ” has been in my watchlist since 2022 and I finally mustered up courage to watch it. Even thou it still wasn’t enough as the show relies on some heavily sensitive content that I was not expecting at all. If you want to watch Tomorrow, you should be mentally prepared for the trauma. Although i keep watching to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Even thou healing isn’t that quick or easy but every story did exhibit some hope, hidden lesson which made it worth it at the end. Once you get into the show,it’s hard to stop because you want to see what happens next, whose story will it be now.
The fried chicken episode and the last three episodes were my favourite because we finally get to see Mr. park and Ms Koo’s story. I was waiting for their story since the beginning of the show. And it was a longgg wait but worth it..
The show had the similar vibe to hotel deluna but I’ll prefer rewatching hotel de luna than tomorrow because this show is too intense. Not for everyone.
I would’ve liked if Rowoon had a love interest or some grim reaper girl crush, it would’ve been fun to watch and that could’ve lighten up the show a bit. But it was good overall.
