Sweet, but not the greatest
I love the storyline that was created for Itt and Pai, but there just seems to be something lacking with the relationship the two actors create for the characters. I think that the most interesting was the fact that Itt and Pai did bring out the best in each other essentially, but the actors lacked chemistry with each other which made it a little hard to watch for me. I found myself constantly liking Fiat's character, Pure, more than the main characters. I think the story was great, and everything was great in all honesty, but I couldn't really feel the chemistry.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

The Parallels of InKorn and DeanPharm
I have been recently rewatching this series as I missed the cast and chemistry between OhmFluke. This series definitely made me cry more times than ever.I found the parallels between their old lives and new reincarnations so beautiful. It was as if their story just continued in their current lives. In could not cook, he even burnt rice with omelet when making it for Korn, but in their current lives, Pharm comes from a family who cooks for a living. He is able to make omelet rice for Dean that tastes good. The parallels of the flashbacks is so heartbreaking as they are both finally able to do the things they promised to do for each other in their previous lives. The execution of the storyline makes us feel the sadness of the characters. Although finding someone you love, Pharm feels this sadness and is still held by his past. The desserts that Pharm continuously makes for Dean and the swimming team is so sweet as all the desserts were ones that In practiced to make for Korn in their past lives. The parallels are drawn and you can see the similarities and differences in their current and past lives.
Now, looking at their past lives, In was the one who started talking to Korn first, approaching him and eventually they fell in love. Maybe it was the trauma of them ending their lives, but the character that Pharm portrays is much shyer than the In in their past lives. In this current life, Dean is the one who talks to Pharm first, as it was also his promise to find him, It was as if all the suffering they had in their past lives would be fixed in this life. The concept of this series is amazing, using the red thread of fate as a way to link star crossed lovers, in a sense, to find themselves again.
The concept also makes you optimistic that there is someone out there looking for you, the red thread of fate connects you and the one you love the most.
Most of the series is told in Pharm's point of view, from his nightmares to his trauma of loud sounds, all pieces of the past with him. What I wish I could have seen more was Dean's point of view, wouldn't he have trauma of his own? How guilty did he feel leaving In first? I do wish we saw more from Dean's point of view and how he had been feeling before he found Pharm. Nevertheless, the characters have a special place in my heart that I will love forever.
If you are looking for something that will warm your heart, but also make you cry buckets, this is the series to go to .

Happiness: Rollercoaster of emotions
I personally enjoy apocalyptic dramas, so I was naturally drawn to Happiness as I read the synopsis. I love the new view that was put on an apocalyptic world. It draws many parallels to the covid-19 pandemic, which was really refreshing to see. The stories make you realize the evils of the human heart and all the things that people struggle through. It also gives you the experience of the lengths people will go through for themselves. The main characters amazed me, I love Park Hyun-sik, and he is one of the main reasons why I started watching in general, but I stayed for Han Hyo-joo. Her character gave such a refreshing image to the main female lead. I always hated female leads that were weak or damsel's in distress, needing a man to save her. Han Hyo-joo's character is the opposite, not only can she hold her own, she does what she wants and can to protect those that she loves, even if she does not show it. It was also nice to see a strong couple, their promises to stay safe, but their strength as individuals to hold their own was impressive. They did not need to save each other because they only had to be there for each other.Even though the drama was mostly held inside an apartment building, the building's people definitely represented the evils of the world. There were murderers, frauds, scammers, rich, poor, and a whole variety of people just packed into a building struggling to maintain its structure. It was pretty infuriating, seeing that the main leads could not do anything because they had to follow the law and rules given to them. But overall, I really enjoyed this drama.
I do think that the ending was rushed. I think it was initially supposed to be 16 episodes, but it was somehow shortened to 12. That was disappointing, as I would have loved to see the main leads live out their lives in happiness after the last scene in the show.
