Tomorrow (2022)

We are the only ones who can save ourselves.

It only takes a few words to give your loved ones the will to live again. The weight of your words can make someone happy or want themselves to die. I think a maximum of people want to commit suicide in their life, some give up on this urge, some don't. The show told us that our words matter the most to our loved ones. That's why we should always be there for our loved ones, listen to their problems, be there for them, comfort them if you can't then contract a psychologist.

Choi Joon Woong reaction after seeing Jumadeung.

Love the Jumadeung office elevator.

Director expression why the RM team wanted to go to the past to buy chicken.

Choi Joon Woong childish behavior upon seeing luxurious cars in Jumadeung then becoming disappointed that they were riding an old car was cute.

Loved Park Joong Gil & the fighting scenes.

Loved episode 6 ending scene in which all the escort team came to show respect to the freedom fighter, even the director also came.

Laughed at the scene where Lim Ryung-gu gave the interview in episode 7, also slapped Koo Ryun gave to the interviewer.

Choi Joon Woong & Lim Ryung-gu arm wrestle was ridiculously funny.

People are too much obsession with maintaining a thin figure. Sometimes it may lead to health sickness even excess dieting can lead to death. Fat shaming, loneliness, work pressure or not getting work can also lead to suicide cases. People love to fat shame others without any reason. The number of people doing this is high. Saying something hurtful to someone is easy, but helping them is hard. We should come forward to help people.

Poor Direction had to sign hundreds of documents.

Laughed at the time when Choi Joon Woong hugged & kissed Lim Ryung-gu in his sleep, the reaction he gave afterward is hilarious.

Loved how Park Joong Gil punished the rapist.

It’s cute & funny at the same time as Choi Joon Woong wanted to hug Koo Ryun & Lim Ryung-gu both, but they kept on pushing him, but in the end he did it, their expressions were priceless.

Loved how Director & Park Joong Gil twisted the truth.

Laughed how Lee Ryung-gu stopped Ryu Cho Hui from eating Choi Joon Woong food, but then his expression while tasting it.

Episode 6 will forever live in my heart

This show is hard to watch in a good way. It's one of the most touching shows I've seen and it's very heartfelt.

The premise is quite simple, the team of grim reapers try to dissuade people from commiting suicide in order for them to live their predetermined life spans while investigating why this person would want to their their own life.

It touches a lot of sensitive social topics so I'd caution any person who's sensitive to these subjects.

Episode 6 was my highlight, I cried all the way though maybe because I'm sensitive when it comes to old people and veterans but oh god, it was wonderful.

I loved it, I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for a meaningful, fun, tearjerker TV show.

I found this drama very intriguing

This is one of those dramas where I couldn't wait for the next episode. I loved the concept of the Grim Reapers trying to prevent suicides. Most of the issues they tackled were very real and hard hitting. They handled it well though. I did wish that they would have inserted some reference as to the help these people needed once the walked them off the ledge. There was enough comic relief to keep me from totally losing it, mostly, but know you will need your box of kleenes for this series. I am dissappointed there most likey wont be a second season due to low watch ratings but at least it felt complete when it ended.

What saves people is not your powers but the weight of your words

This show had my attention hooked from the first episode. From the various perspectives, plotlines, and time periods, the grim reapers come into contact with the living, it does not shy away from exploring the sensitive and vulnerable aspects of the living and dead.

I have viewed many series that explore the themes of suicide, but this show has left a lasting impression. From the visual effects, ost, and film direction, the episodes did an excellent job of capturing the characters' struggles, especially from a psychological lens.The scenes can be seen shot from various angles giving a raw perspective to the audience. Therefore, some scenes can be difficult to watch for some people.

The main aspect of the series include the red thread of fate. The thread is impacted by the choices that people make and influences their connections with how their lives echo onto the next life. Tomorrow is a series that not only informs but highlights that everyone needs an open ear, and a supporting hand and that "What saves people is not your powers but the weight of your words.” -(Director)

The best k-drama?

Wow, this was something i didn't expect.
I started watching without knowing what exactly is this series about. I thought it'll be some sort of fantasy comedy with sad parts but I definitely didn't expect something like this.
I cannot even count how many times I've cried while watching this.
As a person with depression and su!cidal thoughts and atttempt, I could relate to every freaking word and every person. It was so painful because it all felt so real. All the acotrs did such a good job here. The atmosphere. The reasons for the people to commit...everything was so real. I definitely do not regret watching this, even in the state I'm right now.
It's definitely not drama for someone who is not capable of understanding victims of su!cide or actually any difficult ptoblems, like sh, sa, ed and others.
It is good for people who don't understand but want to improve and want to understand. Because after watching this, you realize, that we are not selfish. People who suffer and want to end it are the strongest and most selfless people out there.
Fightinh everyday with life you don't like, with life you didn't even ask for is the hardest situation a person can go through.
When we realize, everyone has their own team who want to save them. But as shown in the drama, they can sometimes come too late. Or they are also dealing with their own problems so then they don't realize how much you suffer.
It's true. The only person who can actually save you, is yourself. Even if you don't understand, don't like it or just simply dont't know how to. It's you. You can only count on yourself and no one else.
I love this series. It shows the real side of wolrd. Even though not everytime can be someone saved. That's life. Not everyone can be saved.
The story is really beautiful. Cast couldn't be better...
I'm not so sure about rewatching though. It's not some comedy with little drama. It's something that will hurt you. It's something that you'll propably relate too even if you're not su!cidal.
I hope you're all safe and healthy :) Be kind to yourself and to people around you.

Appreciating the little things in life that makes you happy

Do I recommend this drama:
For those who prefer light-hearted dramas, I do not recommend this as the drama.
For those who are considering to watch this, I do recommend watching them with tissues on hand.

Story:
Per Netflix introduction, is drama where made half-human, half-spirit by accident, a young man was employed by a company of grim reapers in the underworld to carry out special missions. These special missions are to go to the land of the living to prevent humans from committing suicides.

Suicide is a sensitive topic, so it did came as a surprise that a drama was released with that topic in mind. This 16 episodes drama were broken down into mini story arcs (typically one case every 1 to 2 episodes). As the topic is a heavy one, the drama included elements of fantasy (grim reapers which special mojo) and comedic moments (when it is appropriate).

While the drama was thought-provoking; I felt that there are parts lacking. Personally, I was hoping for the drama to explain or emphasize more on Choi Jun-Woong (by Rowoon). Given Netflix's introduction, I was under the impression that his involvement would be a whole lot more than what the drama eventually portrayed.

Acting:
The cast did an amazing job in this drama; and not just the main cast. Every single cast in the mini story arcs did a fantastic job in portraying the required feelings of the character, which made this drama unforgettable. I have never watched a drama that I teared every single episode.

Note:
If someone told me before I started watching this drama that the content would be such a heavy one , I might watch this drama in the first place.
However, after completing this series, it does make me remember the importance of appreciating the little things in life that makes me happy.

From an American POV

This is a touching and heartfelt drama it has everything you want in a drama series... personal trauma, growth out of despair, and an overall all story arc that plays beautifully and perfectly to the very end where it all wraps up in a perfect little bow. (no spoilers) but it had a very satisfying ending IMO.

the stories that were told during the season were relevant and heartbreaking at times I needed to wipe my eyes on more than one occassion there were also a couple feel good episodes as well.

Being new to KDrama it's a great show for anyone to start watching korean dramas.

A show close to my heart

A MUST WATCH. The story is fresh, unique, and controversial for most people and has a significant social message with twists and turns. The cast and crew did a phenomenal job, and the visuals and OSTs were perfect. Every character had so much depth and complexity. Kim Hee Sun, Rowoon, Lee Soo Hyuk, Yun Ji On and Kim Hae Sook were the perfect choice for Ryeon, Joon Woong, Park Jun-gil, Ryung and Jade Emperor. The portrayal of the characters and their emotions was natural and on point. Each episode spoke out about social injustice, indiscrimination and various causes of suicide with a beautiful message on how beautiful life is. This drama is all about suicide prevention by Grim Reapers. I hope they bring a season 2 for this show.

Plot:
The story starts with Joon's interview, which got rejected due to internal politics. While going home, he meets Ryun and Ryung (Live saving soul reaper and accidentally falls into a coma. To return back to his body within six months, he must work as a Grim Reaper in the Risk management (Ryeon - Leader and Ryung - Assistant Manager) to save lives, or he will be in a coma for three.

Episodes and their message:
With each episode, each character had phenomenal development and got in sync with each other. Especially the RM team. Ryeon and Ryung understand how beautiful life is and their role as life-saving Reapers because of Joon Woong. Park understood why people kill themselves and the pain they undergo. Epilogues were a great addition to the show.

Fallen Flower: Eun Bi and Hye Won. School bullying leaves scars much deeper than we think, but one must find the courage to stand up for ourselves. The memory world was so cool.

Forest of Time: Jae Soo (Joon Woong's school friend). Childhood trauma and difficulties the younger generation has to face while fighting to achieve their dreams. Elements like time travel projected well.

Tree: Kang Woo Jin and Heo Na Young. Again, childhood trauma and the loss of a beloved one can shatter us into zillion pieces, and it is not easy to move on and live a life without, but we need to mutter up the courage to meet the beloved in the next life.

A Soul Becomes a Star: A great tribute to Korean War veteran Lee Young Chun from the Escort, Risk Management teams, and Jade Emperor. Though Lee Young Chun had a miserable life and knew when exactly he was about to die, he carried out daily errands and died peacefully. One must carry out duties to live a fulfilling life.

A Prison Without Bars: Sin Ye Na and Jeong Bo Ram. School bullying and toxic work environment. Beauty is in the person's soul and not in their physical appearance.

Broker: Song Jin Ho. Online scammer who used to make money by helping people suicide. Beware of technology and use it properly.

Someday, Because of You: Kim Kong and Kim Hun. Tribute to all the pet and pet lovers out there. Good things do not last forever, but we should give up hope.

Breath: Cha twins - Cha Yun Jae and Cha Yun Hui. Highlights violence against women and how society, family and friends blame Women as the cause of all the disasters. Society and parenting need to change.

West Sky: Ryung and Lim Yu Hwa. Ryung's past life. Highlights the relationship between Mother and child and the extent a mother can go for their children. Fate is always crucial, and no one can escape from its claws, but there is always a way out.

Spring: Yun I, Lee Jeong Mun and all the other comfort women. Korean History and violence against Women. Survivors always have to pay a big price.

Wind Flower: Ryeon and Park Jung Gil's past. Korean History. Violence against Women and fake allegations. Survivors always have to pay a big price with their life.

Circus: Ryu Choi Hui (Gop Dan, a friend from a previous life (Ryeon)). Struggles and fake allegations. Don't judge a book by its cover or the character they play in a show (in this case) as their true projection. Everyone needs a support system to function.

Threads of Fate: Continuation of Circus with Ryeon and Park's story. An excellent ending, with everyone getting what they truly desire to have.

Ending: Park and Ryeon are on good terms with each other. Joon Woong forgot about Jumadeung but got an incredible life, and he still saves suicide cases unknowingly. This means he is natural. Jade Emperor was awesomely wicked. Lim got the promotion, and Ryeon chose the RM over her wish. The other cast and crew did a great job too.

Unanswered questions:
Will Ryu and Joon's red thread of fate bring them closer?
Will Joon Wong ever remember Jumadeung?

firstly I didnt get why this gets such popularity... first few eps was lacklustre. BUT WAS WRONG

Whole drama is about special grim reaper team working on different cases each episode.
First few episodes didnt catch mine interest and only good thing on these eps was short funny situations shown at end of eps.

Now to later parts of drama this drama is one of few which managed to make me CRY - particularly it was in story about :japans: -Comfort women.
Guess this drama started low and skyrocketed to peak drama 9/10

plot - ML is unemployed once at bridge he sees suicide and wants save him... sadly he ends up in river too whole thing ending with him in coma. He gets offer from grim reapers to join them at work if he works he will wake up sooner.

genre - separate stories, human misery, human relationships

A Tear Jerking Series with A Heartful Message

Every episode is really a tear jerker. Especially the Episode 4. This is so under rated given that the theme is about suicide. Yup, Depression and anxiety is very complex but the main message of this series and to appreciate little joys and be grateful about it. That’s the only way to appreciate the gift called LIFE!

Kudos to Rowoon for always being so handsome in this series and your acting is very seamless in this series! I hope that we can get a season 2 for this series!

I just love that every episode tackles topics that sometimes people are trying to brush off. It will really left you thinking and crying 😍
