May I Help You

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.

This is one of those brilliant stories that the creators wasted an enormous amount of time on stills, replays and completely unnecessary angst. Not sure what they were aiming for, but for me it was uncomfortable to watch all 16 episodes.

The true plot only unfolds at the very end. A well kept secret that a viewer like myself might miss due to the bloated episodes (so many repeat scenes - if I were to count there is a particular scene that repeated between 32 & 48 times).

The actors chosen for each role is spectacular. Each brought their character to life. This is the key reason I managed to stay with the drama. Definitely 10 🌟 for casting.

While I'm not a fan of the way people's faith/religion is portrayed in most kdramas this one kept it real for the everyday yet authentic experience. Not cartoonish at all.

Aside from the nauseating number of replays that could cause delirium (maybe that's what the director wanted), the soundtrack was emotionally draining. Difficult to endure over 16 episodes.

Relationships between the characters were a wonderful treat and relief from the inevitable heaviness of the story. Again, they felt real with the everyday caring, challenges and expectations especially among family members or longtime high school friends. Yet the level of deception between a few characters is a bit gut wrenching. So steel your emotions.

However, as not everyone is the same on how they experience dramas like this one I do recommend it for the unique story, and great cast. It was truly rewarding to see how the story comes to fruition and that it wasn't just a bizarre series of events threaded together.

Final note on my rating. I did not enjoy my time watching this due to the draining manner of presentation and music soundtrack.

If this show, with this title, were American it would probably "ironically" be about some rude self obsessed bartenders and waitstaff, and it's even different from the similarly named British classic comedy Are You Being Served? Which was more of class-war statement about the stiff upper lip of the British middle and upper classes and the trod upon, eccentric working class people who sold them clothes in the 1970s.

No, this charming Korean supernatural fantasy drama isn't even horror - it's legitimately about helping other people. Specifically helping the dead and their families ... though the twenty-something funeral director is stressed and resistant about her fate for obvious reasons.

I guess this could be compared to Highway to Heaven or Touched by an Angel except it has a decidedly Buddhist angle as well as Christian rather than being rigidly Christofascist. The servants of the dead are entirely human and flawed, not angelic or perfect.

I came back after watching more episodes to raise the rating of this excellent K-Drama. I mean if you look at a K-Drama for what it is (a soap opera) this is a really great show, I actually found it highly addictive and couldn't stop watching it. I loved the main characters.

Oh my god, i never been like series like this one! The ending got me in tears A LOT. This one is great series ever! Good job guys!! Please everyone this is WORTH to watch! I like hyeri act! Every single her series i already watch. It's warm my cold heart and the way her pair with jun young more DAEBAK!

The loved of the father to his daughter made me cry, I swear to god i cry A Lot! Like literally a lot. I'm waiting for your new series in the future. I loved your hard work, hope i can see more series like this one. Thank you so much for your hard work. Once again GOOD JOB! Saranghaeeeeeeeeeee.

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.
