Ultima Misiune a unui Înger (2019)

This drama is a beautiful fantasy romance genre. Shin Hye Sun was amazing, how she portrayed at first what seemed arrogance, then sweetness sadness depression. She was really great at doing desperate Giselle. Kim Myung Soo was doing good too. The special effects were very beautiful, the soundtrack heartbreaking while it had to be. Keum Ru Na and Jin Su were frightning hh, the Hu Sunbae very funny.
What bothered me was the religious part, I didn't like seeing God described as they did in the drama. Writing dramas then attributing, even if everybody knows it's just a drama, attributing facts to God, it made me unconfortable,
Happy about the end a 9.5 drama for me...

I would like to say that I didn't expect this at all, just the pure greatness of this drama. I am left feeling empty and strange because I don't know what to do now I have finished watching. Angel's Last Mission: Love is the perfect drama it can't get any better than that. Right down to the cast, the acting and not forgetting those heartbreaking amazing OST's. If they would be one drama I would not forget a minute of it would be this. This was my first time watching both L's and Shin Hye Sun's acting and I was not left disappointed. From other dramas I have watched this was very different and I love that uniqueness. I have never seen a character quite like Dan before and he has made it up to the top of my list as number 1 best kdrama character. Before I go I would like to tell anyone that it thinking of possibly deciding to watch Angel's Last Mission: Love to quickly decide as you won't be left disappointed at all. The romance was some of the best I have seen, everything was so natural and so cute even amidst what is going on. Lastly thank you to the cast, crew and everyone else.

Some cute moments don't make up for the mess of a plot . .

The premise is intriguing. But it's unclear who would want to stick with this. If you are a ballet lover, there's actually very little exposure to the craft and 'behind the scenes' of ballet. If you like family dramas with evil relatives, the 'villains' are exposed in the first few episodes and do not change their strategies or motivations some 20 episodes later. If you are intrigued by the the fantasy/supernatural elements, this world is not fully developed, explained or exposed.

What kept me watching is the angel's struggles with being human, and the lead ballerinas struggles getting back into ballet. But, this resolves some 20 episodes in - and then there was nothing left to keep watching. Indeed, the plot was being dragged on without exposing any new complexities in either plot or character development.

The acting of the two main leads is endearing and competent. Music has its atmospheric moments, but neither can make up for the plot.

The big philosophy questions of our existence are of course, why do bad things happen to innocent/good people? What causes a person to harm their friends, family and community? But 20 episodes in, I couldn't trust the writers to answer these questions in a way that I'd be happy with. I thought best to drop it, while I still have some fond memories of the earlier parts.

indeed a tearjerker!

it’s been a long time since I watched such an emotional tear-jerking drama. this drama was really heart-touching. let’s break down the aspects one by one & how it could have improved too:

STORY: the story is very good. although no major modifications are needed in the story, I do think a few more elements should have been added to make it more entertaining. I loved the drama overall, but I would not deny and say that I didn’t force myself to get through a few episodes because of how boring it was getting. the starting was good, the ending was awesome, especially the last 3 episodes. I think the idea of them falling in love with each-other *gradually* wasn’t really well executed. it just happened suddenly, kind of. also, the genre also includes comedy, which was very little to zero. at first it did have funny stuff going on, which only lasted up until episode 5, I guess. overall the drama was good, though it should not be characterized as a rom-com because they really forgot to put the “com” here. the “rom” was satisfactory though. I personally liked the story.

ACTING: I have no words. shin hyesun has never not served and I never think twice before giving her a 10/10 for acting. kim myungsoo, despite being a kpop idol (as idols have a history of sucking at acting, exceptions excluded), acted so well. supporting actors were all good, no real complaints about acting.

SOUNDTRACK: the soundtrack was very good, some of the songs are on their way to become evergreen in my playlists.

OVERALL REVIEW: good, you should watch it if you’re into tearjerkers. and sacrificial love. and tongue kisses. personally I’m into all three of these so I liked the drama.

Este drama veio no momento certo e é assustador...

O porquê da demora? Eventos inesperados na minha vida. A minha cabeça estava noutro lado e não tinha vontade para nada. Mas este drama fez-me ver coisas que precisava de entender e estou eternamente agradecida...

Primeiro: não sou crente de entidade nenhuma, mas isso não me impediu de apreciar os momentos todos! Houve momentos “cringe, no please” e momentos “visto desse ponto de vista...”. As personagens: impecáveis! A história: plot twist meio confuso no final mas ótimo! (quase não contive as lágrimas no último episódio).

Dei conta que aquilo que mais desejamos nem sempre é o melhor para nós e que a vida é muito curta.
Se calhar, se eu tivesse visto noutra altura, não ia ser tão importante para mim. Ainda bem que decidi largar o Vincenzo por uns momentos.

Don't even think twice before watching this

The plot, cinematography, chemistry, acting , ost... Literally everything is perfect. It's my second most fav drama ever after goblin. Shin hye sun is a brilliant actress and I watched it for her. She did an amazing job, and the dance routines recorded were visually pleasing. I could watch this drama any day. It was funny, sad , cute and everything I wanted in a drama. Male lead is very endearing and the kiss scenes were swoon worthy as well. Second lead is the most annoying guy I've ever met. But that was his role and ig he did a fine job. Nina should've been explored a little more but nonetheless it was hard to dislike her. The elder sister was beautiful and her acting was amazing. I loved her. The casting was literally perfect

In the beginning, I wasn't really sold on the premise for this drama, mainly because of how they wrote FL as a bitter, selfish woman who uses her moneyed status to intimidate people. But the ML breathe life into her sad and forlorn existence was worth watching the show. Shin Hye Sun's acting chops are versatile, having watched her a few other dramas, and she is great as the prima ballerina Lee Yeon Seo who was blinded by an accident and with it, robbed her of whatever humanity she had left in her body.

Enter Kim Myung Soo as Kim Dan, an angel with an equally angelic face, whose mission was to find a cynical, spoiled brat the true love that she apparently deserves. Surprisingly, Lee Yeon Seo gives in to their push and pull, and it seems like Kim Dan has tamed the shrew, but not without a few sacrifices of his own.

The rest of the cast delivered, from Ji Kang Woo as the long-suffering Lee Dong Gun who lost his wife who is Yeon Seo's doppelganger to Kim Bo Mi, who plays as the over-looked second-rate ballerina who deserves the spotlight as much as Yeon Seo, but was held back by family politics. The suspenseful dramatics were held by Yeon Seo's family whose eagerness to claim Fantasia's throne and misplaced affection, led some of them to heinous dealings.

Though I bawled my eyes out half of the time, the drama exceeded my expectations in that in dealt with the different types of love and sacrifices that people make for love.

Now here is a drama that got it right, L is an actual angel and this one proves it!

Fun aside, "Angel's Last Mission : Love" started like a fairy tale. The drama was filled with dancing and music and top notch aesthetics. The leading lady was great, as she managed to dance and to performe like a real ballarina. She had chemistry with her partner as well and that helped the love story a lot.

The universe with the angels and everything was well built as well. It was interesting and intriguing. Plus, the dramatic past stories were really good.

However, the drama got predictable and boring towards the ending. The family drama was not original, the love story was too cliche and the last twist just okay.

So, seven out of ten.

Strong beginning. Loved the first few episodes. Then the plot started to drag and go in circles.

The cinematography was gorgeous, the OST went great with the show and the leads were amazing individually and also as a couple. They had beautiful, wonderful chemistry. Supporting characters did a phenomenal job, too.

The forbidden-love aspect of this drama was its strongest point, but as I said, it got repetitive and boring in how the plot progression was approached. I think either other conflicts should have been introduced, or if not, the show should have been cut down to fewer episodes.

A heart warming drama

I Gotta admit Shin Hye Sun (Lee Yeon Seo) has given the best performance. I really loved her acting. After Mr. Queen, I am seeing her next drama. What a charisma and one-to-one connection can be developed with her and the viewers.

The Drama lets you hook up in just 4 episodes and the rest is a tireless ride with emotions spawning all the way.
Both the leads develop their romance cycle after 14 episodes or so. But still, I personally felt an attachment with these two.

Kim Myung Soo and Shin Hye Sun nailed it..... The story hits you hard in the brain. Direction is also good with good cinematography and the plot is decent with very little cliche in it,

OST is worth listening to. GO check it out.

Great Fantasy Romance

I like this a lot and very touching. Made me laugh and cry throughout the whole series. The leads look good together and the chemistry between them is top notch.
First of all, the story is super duper good, the sad scenes can make your heart ache. The leads never annoy me one bit, the story behind every character is very well done.
And the music is really good, I will download it later. Even though I dont understand some lyrics, it makes the scene more touching and dramatic, it fits really well.

This will probably be one of those series that I will not get over with. I love this. I've watch countless of dramas and kinda find them similar and this is not one of them, this type is one that will make your heart remember.

Would have been great if it was shortened to maybe 20 episodes..

I love dramas with "magic/supernatural" plot pieces so this drama was right up my alley!

Pros:
The idea
The leads (until the last 12ish episodes.)
The OST

Cons:
The writing starting around episode 20. It was just a back and forth of "no I'm going to die for you." "No! I'm going to die for YOU!!" Back and forth.
Also when the villain escapes...a least favorite trope is when a villain gets lose after getting caught.
Couldn't stand the 3rd wheel. Never felt he loved the lead but just had a weird obsession caused by his own back story.
So confused by the whole feather handkerchief...turns black at one point and then he isn't human? I don't know, I might have missed something...

Glad it is over...
