Tell Me Your Wish

I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS DRAMA! It's an adaptation and they really did a wonderful job. Every episode, they come up with more meaningful things. Scenes, songs, and especially actors are amazing. Some of the scenes really got me motivated. I can't hold my tears at every episode but also i can't wait to watch the next episode. I especially love the scenes that they make the patient's last wishes become real. The topic of death can be really depressing but they convey it naturally and reminding that it's only normal in human nature. Congrats to the all the team!

Ps. Ji Chang Wook, again, you didn't dissapoint with your amazing acting, thank you!

A young man played by Ji Chang-wook on getting out of prison is immediately pursued by the thugs of a gangster he owes money to. He ends up in a confrontation and has to do community service at a local hospice where a group of people called team genie try to meet the last wish of the occupants. The leader of team genie is played by Sung Dong-il and Choi Soo-young is the feisty nurse who grows to like the new help but will he stay after he has completed his hours ? It is a super cast with many great performance and will warm your heart as the cold and distant unloved orphan finds happiness in his life for the first time. Be prepared to have your heart strings tugged as you witness the final moments of people's lives and the sometime simple and sometime complicated dreams before they die. It has other side stories running through it and is great viewing over the sixteen episodes.

Topics are too heavy and it's the typical Script that pursues an easy heartstring pull. ( death, sickness, over the top emotional) it is just an elaborate display of good people suffering so you feel for them.

This one is not for the cynical, I honestly find too unbelievably that the whole staff of an hospice would stop literally everything for days even weeks just to grant a wish to a dying patient. I mean, it's a beautiful thought, but naive nonetheless.

The other thing that bothers me is that they seem to know EXACTLY when everyone is going to die, what an amazing superpower... again unrealistic is to say too little about this drama.

I am aware that the show is well written and the acting is outstanding but I guess it's not the series for me. I want to be able to enjoy a drama and with this one I haven't been able too! What a shame.

The roles of selfless warm hearted nurse and the Genie leader plus the transformed orphan with dark past makes the story great and meaningful. The leads and supporting casts are all great in their own roles.

But I wasn't satisfied with the limited scenes of the lead male and orphanage sister. Their relationship is a diversion of the hospital scenes which includes the unnecessary details of the patients' lives. Though their relationship became toxic, it seems it's more interesting if their past were shown a little more. I found CJW more charming playing tough yet supportive to her sister. The funny thing is they has been sleeping together but he never been attracted to her non biological pretty sister. I like their chemistry so there should have at least more development about them in the story.

This drama was like a warm hug from an old friend during a rainy day.

Everything about the drama feels very genuine. The plot is realistic, not rushed nor slow, and the dialogues are sincere. Every episode contains a heartwarming story and I found myself tearing up and crying long wet tears each time I watched an episode. It wasn't because the stories were sad, but because how heart touching they were.

The cast did a fantastic job by presenting us these lovable characters who each have layered personalities. Ji Changwook's acting is masterful yet again, and he brings out a great main character that you would always root for. His micro expressions throughout the drama had me hooked. I loved Soyoung's nurse as well. She was unproblematic, real, extremely kind, and badass as well!

Everyone else did a remarkable job in every aspect. I never felt time passing when I watched an episode.

A must see! Definitely recommended.
