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...
