Here's my drama review on a 2011 Korean Drama named 49 Days/Pure Love:
The Main Characters are:
Nam Gyu Ri as Shin Ji Hyun 。Lee Yo Won as Song Yi Kyung
Seo Ji Hye as Shin In Jung 。Bae Soo Bin as Kang Min Ho
Jo Hyun Jae as Han Kang 。 Jung Il Woo as Scheduler / Song Yi Soo
A few days before her wedding with her 3-year boyfriend Min Ho,Ji Hyun gets into a car accident that leaves her in coma. However, unknown to her parents, fiancé and friends, Ji Hyun's soul was actually in the body of a part-time employee at a convenience store called Yi Kyung. Ji Hyun was given a second chance at life by a reaper(who likes music and preferred to be called as a scheduler). If she can collects three pure tears from three people that aren’t her blood relatives in 49 days, she would be deem as worthy to live and would awake from her coma. She, however, cannot use Yi Kyung's body after midnight and had to keep her identity a secret. During the 49 days, she saw how her parents fiancé and friends live without her, discovered dark secrets about her friends (SPOILER!) and experienced true love with her high school classmate Kang. However, as the 49th day approaches...
What i liked about(SPOILER ALERT!) :
When i started watching this drama i don't actually hold any anticipation. i'm just watching for the sake of watching. But, after watching the drama, i thought that i'm LUCKY to not have missed this drama! Unlike other korean dramas, this drama is more supernatural but yet full of moral values and touch on issues like love, betrayal, karma etc. I don't usually cry while watching dramas, but i have to say that this is a very touching story. What i like about the story is that everyone in the story is linked and related in one form or another. The plot unravels itself at a right pace, that makes you want to continue watching. 5 STARS for this drama!
Ｉ specially enjoyed watching the love story between Yi Kyung and Yi Soo, an ill-fated couple from an orphanage. they truely loved each other but yet was separated by misunderstandings and by Yi Soo's death. Yi Kyung lived like a walking zombie after Yi Soo dies, and attempted many sucide attempts. At her last attempt, she went to Yi Soo's accident scene and stood in front of a driving truck. The truck driver, in order to avoid hitting her, braked and sweered, resulting in a chain car accident, with Ji Hyun being the victim. Yi Soo on the other hand, regretful of unable to resolve his misunderstandings with Yi Kyung before his accident, volunteered 5 years of his service as a scheduler-an angel of sorts who awaits to take souls to their final destinations in order to be given a chance to tell Yi Kyung he loved her before going over to the afterlife. However during this 5 years he have no recollections of his past life, and it's sad to see Yi Kyung and Yi Soo interacts without knowing each other.
Ｒａｔｉｎｇ：★★★★★／★★★★★
