“Itsuka, Nemuri ni Tsuku Hi” also known as “Someday I’ll Fall Asleep” is a short drama about resolving one’s regrets after death. The general plot of the show is nothing new and we’ve seen many other dramas about the same topic. I did not see the twist at the end (I was half-right), and this interesting twist makes the drama special.

The acting is decent and the drama for the most part is simple and easy to follow. Her regrets are predictable and not mind-blowing. So if you are looking for a light drama with a few heartwarming storylines, this is a good choice.

I’m glad our FL is not the overly, innocent type. There isn’t anyone annoying in this drama. I do find the chemistry between FL and the grim reaper much more interesting than her love interest. There’s something in the grim reaper’s eyes that I thought would have a different backstory, but I was wrong. Speaking of eyes, there’s a kid in this drama that has the weirdest expressions. He has this serious look with angry eyes, when he’s not supposed to be angry. It’s weird and cute in a way.
