While You Were Sleeping (2017)

The first episode... Wow! If you're not drawn in by the first episode then I don't know what to tell you. I watched the first episode and I was hooked.
The acting and chemistry is very good among the cast. They do a great job showing the different emotions and there's a wide range of them.
There are so many heartfelt moments throughout this series where your heart will be truly happy. You'll also have to be prepared for some tearjerker moments as well though! I was emotionally invested and I think the writer did a great job bringing you back up after being down.
People should for sure give this show a try. You won't be let down!

Solid Drama

This drama had a good concept, good story, good humor and good execution to it. The only thing lacking was a good villain (although it had one it wasn't a good one in my opinion). Overall this was a solid drama with overall good scores and I liked it.

The story is based on the concept of prophecy of disasters. The concept is introduced at the very beginning when they shows us how the FL dreams about imminent disasters before they happen. The drama is mainly a Law drama with the ML being a newly appointed prosecutor. The drama is about how he the ML with strong moral compass (but fainthearted) solves the cases properly which the other prosecutors solved incorrectly or too lazy to solve. In this drama the dreaming portion has a significant impact on the story of the drama. This drama does have glaring loop holes but if you can ignore some loop holes it is overall an enjoyable drama.

I enjoyed it. Definitely worth the watch.

Overall- 10/10

Wow, what a drama. I enjoyed watching it so much that I finished the series within a day and a half. Everything about it was perfect. It's only the third drama I've watched and it's my favorite at the moment. Now what made this drama so good was the combination of an intriguing story, great cast, and thrilling music. Literally a masterpiece.

Story- 10/10

The supernatural theme of the realistic dreams the three main characters share adds interest to the overall- frankly, this is the most important aspect of the story that ties everything in. As for the genres, I think the "law" part is the most evident as that is what the story is about. One little thing I was wondering was of the romance being almost a separate plot point.

Characters- 10/10

Now the characters were very good. At first, I thought of Hong Joo to be meh, but I got used to her. As for Jae Chan, he was charming. The incompetent prosecutor on the outside but hard-working when you dig deeper. As for the side characters, they served their job well.

Acting/Cast- 10/10

There isn't too much to say about this, you have Lee Jong Suk as your male lead, and I thought Suzy was really good at portraying Hong Ju as a character who is depressed at times and cheerful at another. As for the other characters, Lee Sang Yeob did excellently at being the antagonist of the series. Wow, I hated this character so much, he was such a wicked guy.

Music- 10/10

Soundtracks were really good. The one I liked the most was of the violins going to high notes and back down during the most suspenseful moments. It really added to the thrill of the moment, which always gave me chills down my spine. Suzy's track, "I Love You Boy". was very lovable and soothing to hear.

Enjoyment- 10/10

Every second of this drama was amazing. There was a great balance of thrill and comedy in the plot. I finished this drama too fast.

Rewatch value- 10/10

I would rewatch this series anytime. It was that good. I first need to watch other dramas.

luv it.

This is definitely one of the best well-written kdramas I’ve ever watched.
If you like watching kdramas about laws etc I would recommend this for you
It’s a type of drama that you wouldn’t get bored of, every episode gets even more interesting
and more cases to do.
The fact that my faves are the main cast here makes it even more better heh..

I also cried watching this drama so be ready for it.

Story: 9.5/10
My first question about this drama why is it called “While You Were Sleeping” and I finally got my answer watching it, it’s about the main cast dreaming about what will happen to their life and other people lives in the passing time which what i totally love about this show the storyline is
very interesting.

Acting/Cast: 10/10
The cast were good choice they all pulled their characters well.
The chemistry between Lee Jong Suk & Bae Suzy is powerful
they totally stand out as a couple in the drama.

Lee Jong Suk- He fitted the role, his acting is always cool & simple
but the best.

Bae Suzy- She always has role were she embarrassed herself in public lmao.
But her role is always savage & has big confidence, actually out of the drama
she’s been in this role fitted her the most.

Jung Hae In- He was my favorite here, but he was pathetic,
they did him poor, second lead syndrome can’t be missing in
kdramas. I cried for him but since I don’t wanna give spoilers
or it will ruined the show I ain’t gonna give anything.

Lee Sang Yeob- Even though how many times I hate him in the drama, you can’t ignore his amazing acting skills.
His facial expressions & his handsomely face is attractive so dislike
him or not you will fall for him just like jessi hah..

Music: 9/10
The soundtrack is amazing definitely my fave.

“I love you boy” is a masterpiece + it was by Bae Suzy.

“When Night Falls” by Eddy Kim ughh when i hear it, makes my
heart flutters also one of my favorite the song was really good
& the singer of it just fitted the song so much his voice was
amazing.

Out of all the songs this two were my favorite.

just superb

worth watching .......this drama can make one think of different beliefs even they are not true ...like literally forecasting something that has not happened but will happen in the future and you dream about that ..and I even dreamed about being like that..superb it can bring good and bad also and the ML and FL acting was just so perfect and also having a second ML to just make it more perfect 😊😍😍....and the way how the story goes ..like most of the times it's the same, the story goes like happiness to being sad and in this also its the same, first they showed all the comedy from the Male and Female leads meeting to the twist in between by taking in the picture the second male lead and how they came together to solve all the cases and also the past relationship and along the way how they tackled with everything and in the last it was really a happy ending after all the problems. The main thing, the OST of this drama is just superb ..atleast for me it really calmed my mind and I felt so peaceful .....just superb.🥰🥰

Story:
The plot never gets boring after a while you don't even realized you've watch the whole series

Acting/Cast:
What do you expect from Suzy, Lee Jongsuk and Jung Haein? Only the best acting of course!!! Their characters were amazing especially Suzy, I haven't seen her in a drama in a while so I was excited and as expected Suzy delievers. Honestly this isn't my favorite Haein role, but I still enjoyed it.

Music:
Honestly I can't remember the OST, but Korean soundtrack are always the best so....

Overall:
The show was great and I definitely recommend it to anyone who's thinking of watching

Amazing bromance and huge expectations

The plot of this drama is really good and the first episode made me drown on my own tears making me create huge expectations, but like basically every Lee Jongsuk drama ever made, was wasted potencial and eventually got tiring. But the acting is really good since they had a elite cast and Bae Suji is always a queen. Hae In never dissapoint and his bromance with Lee Jongsuk was worth the entire drama, making me give them my heart for free. Its a drama that you can bingle watch and even tho it could get better, its a must watch. Also, Lee Sung Kyung and Yun Kyun Sang's cameo is the cutest thing ever and i NEED theyre drama asap!!!

This drama was REALLY good! It was SO engaging and the storyline was clever, it was very well made and it was funny, dramatic, tragic all at once!!
The main characters are just wow...talk about OT3!! I loved them all so much and I love the fact that there wasn't a malicious rivalry between Jae Chan and Woo Tak, they were all friends and treated each other with love and respect.

I love the amount of respect between colleagues. Woo Tak and his sunbae, and Jae Chan and Inspector Choi's relationship grew to this father-son relationship and it was so beautiful and heartbreaking!!

I LOVE the soundtrack for this drama, I just found myself thinking OMG this song, I need to find it, and it was a new one in every episode :D

10/10 would reccomend, this drama had me laughing and crying and sitting at the edge of my seat. Awesome work, everyone who worked on this drama, it was fantastic!

This was my first ever K-Drama that I´ve watched, and It was an amazing start. First of all, if the first episode didn´t grab you - than who are you, I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. The whole dream concept was very interesting and it wasn´t overly done or too unbelievable, I feel like it had a nice ballance of the romance side and the action packed side. Their relationship wasn´t too sappy, like in other dramas, so it was very refreshing I feel like. And this was the time where I fell in love with Lee Jong Suk - and his one eye tear drops - ahh I just love him.
