May I Help You

So I have the privilege of seeing this series on Amazon prime in the western hemisphere. I generally enjoy it this far, some good visuals, sense of magic common to kdramas more so than any other industry in my view, and good acting. Sweet moments which is generally appreciated. I have a few complaints. There are some cliche ideas to begin with. For example I find that some characters were befallen my major misfortunes that are incredibly unlikely in real life, so while the case led to very entertaining couple of episodes, I couldn't help but wonder why kdramas feature unnecessary cruel and unlikely occurrences. Second, the piggy back ride- it can be very endearing but I feel like men shouldn't have to piggyback women as an expectation. Women need to show a whole lot of appreciation and frankly avoid getting so drunk. It's a vehicle that makes female audiences swoon over handsome Korean stars but it's somewhat misleading and not fair. Third, why not give someone a hug more freely when they're feeling down? For sure there may be cultural differences but if you're hugging this same person for piggy backs, you should be able to offer some emotional support even simply as a friend. Finally the mechanism of scoffing is overused. Still entertaining and well put together. I'll probably see it to the end.

I've watched a few Kdramas and just happened to fall upon this one. It's a good story. It can be a little infuriating but luckily you have a new episode waiting for you so you don't have to wait to see what happens next. The characters are all connected in some form or another and you also get to know each of their personalities and stories. I still have about 6 episodes to go. But when it comes on, it has my undivided attention. It has subtitles, so if that bothers you, this isn't the show for you. But I promise you will love how it plays out. No spoilers, you have to watch it for yourself. But you will enjoy it.

"May I Help You?" is the kind of K-drama that reminds you why you fell in love with Korean series in the first place - it blends emotion, humor, mystery, and pure warmth in a way that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The story follows Baek Dong-Ju, a young funeral director with an unusual gift: she can communicate with the deceased and grant their final wishes. Alongside Kim Jib-Sa, a kind and loyal young man who runs a small errand service, she forms an unexpected but incredibly charming team.

What makes this drama truly special is the way it balances lighthearted, positive vibes with deeper, more emotional moments. Each episode introduces different stories from the people Dong-Ju helps, and while some will make you smile, others might bring tears to your eyes. The series teaches beautiful lessons about kindness, empathy, and how small acts of help can leave a lasting impact.

The chemistry between the leads is delightful - it's not rushed, it's not forced, but rather develops naturally as they share experiences and support each other. The side characters also add charm and humor, making the world of "May I Help You?" feel warm and alive. Visually, the cinematography is soft and pleasing, enhancing the cozy and heartfelt atmosphere of the drama.

One of the most uplifting aspects of the show is its ability to turn a topic as heavy as death into something touching and even comforting. It gives you a sense of closure and hope, showing that even endings can be beautiful.

If you're looking for a drama with a positive vibe, touching stories, a sprinkle of romance, and a meaningful message, "May I Help You?" is a must-watch. It will leave you smiling, maybe crying a little, but most importantly, it will leave your heart feeling lighter.

I never wrote a movie/drama review but this drama is an exception. It drives my feelings like on a roller-coaster and I may need time to get over it. The story is a bit slow sometimes and people may lose their patience for it, but there is always a reason behind those scenes. I love Dong Ju character's personality so much, such a warm and cool young lady. I cried like a river watching the last episode. The messages delivered by this drama are so meaningful. Love the cast, especially two main leads, their acting and chemistry are superb. It s sad that there is nothing for me to look forward to in every Wed and Thu now. But hopefully, there will be season 2 with the same main leads.

I cannot describe how much I love this show. I watched a whole lot of k-drama in the past three years. And finally, I felt like I have nothing to watch. Then I saw this. Usually I watch rom-com so my first reaction was to pass this. But I really love Hyeri and since I had nothing else in my mind I decided to give it a chance. And I loved it.

I really love both leads. I think they are doing a fantastic job in acting. And I think they have a really good chemistry. I have never seen male lead in anything before and after watching this show I watched more of his work and I also visited Hyeri's old works too.

Also... I loveeee the writing. I cannot believe how much I am waiting for a new episode. I cannot get this show out of my mind. I love the comedy aspect of it, and the light romance, and the beautifully portrayed drama of the passing of the loved ones. It is sad, but not very dark. You feel like you should hold onto life more.

I am a person with depression and this drama came to my life in a really good time. I feel at ease after I watch every episode.

I just hope they wrap this up nicely. I watched so many great shows with so many disappointing endings. I really hope this would not be the case at all for this show.

Hyeri and Jun <3 nothing but love for you.
