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).
