Plot:

Tak Dong Kyung has been working hard ever since her parents passed away. Her life seemed more stable after working as a web novel editor for 6 years, but then she gets diagnosed with a brain cancer. She blames her unlucky life and wishes to curse everything to disappear, which unintentionally calls Myeol Mang, who is the doom itself and is neither human nor God, to appear. He says that he can grant her wishes. As her last hope, she makes a contract with Myeol Mang for a hundred days to live how she wants, risking her everything.

Mini Review:

↬This was the show that I though was going to be the show that defined 2021 for me, but the though just crashed.

↬The beginning or at least till Episode 6, it will keep you captured on the fairytale ride and the amazing cinematography and chemistry between the leads.

↬The concept feels new and unreal. The character and setups seem bold, but that’s just up to Episode 6.

↬Then it becomes an infinite loop of conversations with no meaning and that goes nowhere, an infinite repeat of break up and patch up, remembering and forgetting, and no amount of good acting can save that.

↬Once the plot reaches this point, the chemistry doesn’t matter anymore and you keep on watching just to see how the plot ends.

↬And that passive aggressive jealous boyfriend thing should really stop now. It’s neither romantic, nor funny, it’s plain irritating and shows how he has no boundary.

↬Also, I absolutely did not understand the 2^nd couples love triangle. Her first love ran away without any excuse, and when he came back, he is still lying but has the guts to say to her to not date anyone else?

↬Thankfully the final 2 episodes were much better than the no plot middle.

Ending Notes:

🔺Personally, I feel this would have been a much better show if made into a mini-series of 8-10 episodes.

🔺Please let Lee Soo Hyuk have his love story without being the 2^nd lead or in a love triangle for once.

🔺The show had some remarkable moments, and awesome OST and BGM, I would definitely remember the show for those moments.

Final Rating: 1.5/5👀
