Eu ignorei esse drama por algumas semanas depois de seu lançamento pensando que se tratava de mais um drama de romance com fantasmas. Eu nem consigo explicar o quão errada eu estava.

"Hi Bye, Mama" é aquele tipo de história que faz você se sentir com vontade de abraçar todas as pessoas que você se importa e dizer que as ama muito, e isso porque ele nos faz pensar como nós vivemos nossas vidas pensando que o nosso amanhã é garantido, mas isso infelizmente não é verdade.

Em uma visão geral e resumida em relação à produção, o elenco foi muito bem escolhido (com destaques para a Kim Tae Hee e Go Bo Gyeol que atuaram lindamente) e os personagens foram muito bem abordados, com algumas exceções, mas nada que tenha impacto suficiente para prejudicar na obra como um todo. A trilha sonora foi bem colocada e produzida e se encaixa perfeitamente nas cenas, porém, como uma pessoa que adora ouvir as OST's dos dramas para relembrar deles, eu não me apeguei à nenhuma em particular. Em relação ao enredo, o fluxo da história foi natural o suficiente, na minha opinião, para abordar tanto as cenas de comédia quanto as mais dramáticas e tristes e isso resultou em uma trama que te deixa mais familiarizado com os personagens abordados, que vão dos principais aos outros fantasmas (personagens mais secundários).

Mesmo abordando um tema extremamente delicado, a morte e como as pessoas lidam com ela, o drama foi perspicaz e, ao mesmo tempo, cauteloso na sua abordagem, nós mostrando o lado de quem fica e também de quem vai. Eu provavelmente estou tão apaixonada com essa historia, por ela extrair tão magnificamente a minha parte preferida das obras asiáticas, que é a visão de que amar não é lutar com tudo que tem para que seja correspondido e então feliz, e sim perceber que mesmo que tenha que fazer sacrifícios e se machucar no processo, você faria isso pela pessoa que ama, mesmo que isso signifique que você não possa mais ficar com ela.

(Essa foi a minha primeira resenha no MDL e eu peço desculpa por qualquer erro e se por acaso você não concordar com algo que foi dito, deixe um comentário, eu realmente adoro ouvir opiniões diferentes e entender como elas foram formuladas).
Muito obrigada pela leitura e até à próxima! o/

As the title says, my acting queen is back and glowing. I love the character she chose to play because thd dynamic between them is great. The daughter is so cute and I live to see how the story will continue. Why does a review have to be more than 500 characters? I just wanted to gush about this drama and then go.

Stupid show with a good start

The biggest problem with this show is that they made a 16-episode show with only 3 episode worth of content. They resort to filling the episodes with meaningless side characters and their stories that don’t amount to anything substantial. They shamelessly try to distract you by showing endless flashbacks and repeating the same scenes over and over again from slightly different angle to fill the run time. I keep seeing this in other K-dramas, too. Why do they have to be 16 episodes? Is this from some K-drama constitution that everything has to be 16 episodes long no matter what?

The other problem is that characters don’t act like normal human beings. I get that this is a show about a dead person coming back to life, etc. The dead wife can’t control herself every time her daughter’s around seemingly because she missed her daughter so much. She forgets everything that’s going on around her. The husband might as well be dead because he’s detached from everything including his daughter, the new wife and his job. I’m not sure how he’s still employed. The new wife has no personality whatsoever and doesn’t talk much. The mother-in-law pretends like she doesn’t miss her granddaughter. Characters keep making unrealistic decisions all across the board. I do like the actors in the show and I feel like they could’ve done better with better story and directions.

You also get to see the K-drama staples like needless misunderstandings, incredible coincidences (it’s incredibly amazing how the characters somehow run into each other no matter what/where/when all the time over and over again), long stares, multi-genre confusion and so on. In fact, everything is turned up to 150%. Man, I had such a high hopes for this show based on the first episode.

I’ll continue to watch to see what will come out of this. The show is pretty good when it’s good but when it’s bad, it’s really bad and frustrating. Sigh...

A heartfelt drama about loss and acceptance

Hi Bye, Mama was one of the first K-drama series I watched. It was such a shocker series for me, unlike anything I've seen in western tv series.

The story is just perfect, about loss and reconciliation, acceptance, grief, regret, but also joy. The series has so much heart that I admit that this series made me sob the most, it really touches you.
It makes you truly think about the most painful things people go through, the loss of someone close.

The actors did an amazing job, all of them.

I did not know what I was going to watch when I started watching it, but I'm glad I decided to watch it "blindly".
It still sits in me to this day since I saw it earlier this year.

It's one of my top series to recommend to people, at least people who are open to drama series.

First, the content! I would never think a drama could bring a lot in my life because there was so much to learn. We are used to take our lives for granted. Not only our lives but also others' lives too while we are not gonna live forever. I watched this drama since they aired 1st episode so the week between they air it got me asking myself "is this the life I really want? If I die right now, will I have some regrets? What can I do to have the least of regrets? If my relatives die right now, did I spend enough time with them or cherish them enough to not have regrets? Was I a good person or did I try to be it? Was I good enough with myself? (Because I wish to not spend my remaining time worrying about hating myself, I would regret it) This drama made me think of these a lot. I know some people would say they did not like it because it was realist but you know, even though it's a "drama", we still need to learn a lot from some and that's that. Life goes on and we need to move forward. Life has always been this way and I appreciated this drama for depicting this reality to the fullest. If you are not ready to face this reality, I doubt you'll like it.


About the content. I really loved the acting. To be honest, the emotions were perfectly conveyed and we felt each character's sincerity. I usually complain about some dramas for not showing clearly the reason why one character act a certain way but I think this drama shows otherwise because we got all the details we needed to understand each character's point of view. There were no real evil expect life's injustice, I would say? So that's a good reason to watch this drama, we can relate to it. Although I was a bit skeptical at first that the "supernatural" aspect would make it unpleasant and unrealistic, everything felt real, to me. It was neither slow nor quick, it was at a perfect pace.

So don't hesitate and watch this drama !!!

The most heart-wrenching drama I have ever watched.

The acting was astounding, I felt the connection and chemistry between all the actors. Prepare for many, many tears. It really does push the message to live every day like it’s your last and life to the fullest. Tell friends and family you love them as much as possible. You just never know when death may happen.

I actually really loved the ending. It was realistic, as that is how life is- it's not always a fairy tale, but obviously with the supernatural aspect.

Overall, this is just so beautifully done.

this dráma IS very emotional

this story IS very sad ... this story is very sad. I even cried the part when she met her mother, it was very emotional ... the whole story I felt sorry for the main character ... it was very real that her husband started all over again. sniekyn inim thought it was selfish that he didn't think about nana, that's why I didn't have to him in this drama ..... I enjoyed her mother the most and she the story between the mother and the dead daughter, similar to Good Bad Mother, I like the family drama ... but this one was the saddest drama I've ever seen right from the first episode I had tears in the corner of my eye, a terrible drama you must watch it, it's definitely added to my favorites ... the female role was very balanced even after her departure, that's why I give her 10 / 10

My First KDrama and NO REGRETS!

It was a good emotional run watching this series. My first 'Korean Drama' because I wasn't really into this before, reading sub titles and all. BUTTT it woke me up and left me realizing what I am missing. It is that good!
I am just pulled by the casts' superb acting. It felt like I know them personally and it did make me feel somewhat involved. (which I think is good) As the story goes, the laying down of the characters was so good, that you know each of them better.
You can tap on any characters easily and relate to them fast and effortless. I cried countless times if that counts lol.
I was drawn by how the actors appear to be so believable. The lines they throw and every tear drop was heartfelt. I even notice they cut it it quite sooner than I wanted. I wanted to cry more and I wished I had more time enduring that emotion but some scenes they just change suddenly lol.

I like the character of the mom/omma. Jeon Eun-Sook. Very relatable. I was thinking about my own mom the whole time.
It was her eyes that need not to tell more... I can replay it all in my mind over and over. Superb acting.

The casting was perfection. It felt like all the actors were really suited for the role they are portraying.

It has opened a new window for me to watch Korean Dramas after this... I really really really admire how this whole series was made. Congrats to the production! Really life changing and inspiring because it will surely leave you with thoughts, lessons, and deepened realizations. Thank you so much!!!

You might first notice that I did not rate this show highly in the re-watch category as I think I will take a long time to be able to watch it again, not the least because I doubt I will forget it for quite some time. Due to the platform I was able to watch this with family across the globe. It was unanimous !! Each of us rate this drama highly. I don't think I will add anything to the wonderful reviews written earlier as they describe the show so eloquently.
There are many Korean dramas which are not star driven but a tour de force of all performers and this is particularly true of this cast. This brings into focus the value of all relationships , familial, marital, friendship, work.....
My advice within this review is do NOT binge watch this show. It can take too long to recover from some individual episodes. The strength of the cast and script has resulted in scenes played with subtlety are still capable of packing a heavy punch. I highly recommend watching this drama but with someone so that the phone calls/discussions add to the experience. Stay safe all.
