Angel's Last Mission: Love

Hye-Sun Shin is the main reason to watch this drama. She shines. She dazzles. She offers so much that you actually don't need any other reason.

When you start a drama about an angel you don't expect gritty realism. Instead you are ready and willing to surrender to a fantasy in anticipation of an entertainment reward for doing so. This series would have delivered that entertainment reward without Hye-Sun Shin. With her it delivers in spades.

I have seen Hye-Sun Shin before. She was fine. I cannot say why she is so much more than fine here. Perhaps the transition of her character from spoiled rich girl with a huge chip on her shoulder to someone with so much to give provides the bedrock for you to root for her. Somehow she was more beautiful than I had realised. More touching. More winning. More sympathetic. More everything.

An angel is given the mission to help a blind ballerina who is angry with the world find love, the problems begin when he develops feelings for her. The two stars in this are truly excellent and there are many touching moments, also the ballet scenes are extremely well done. A great series with twists and turns that make you wonder if love and happiness will ever be achieved.

Please get your paper towels ready because this drama is a roller coaster of emotions. The lead roles were so devoted to each other in their relationship and it blew me away.i was sobbing for the most part and no I do not regret the 16 hours I spend watching the drama.

Most of the romantic Korean drama is too much cringe we all know. But for their romantic moment and acting no one can beat romantic kdrama i think. And this drama is another example of it.

Sit back with your tissue paper. Lead actress of this drama is just awesome, her acting was on next level (honestly all korean actress are too much good at their acting). Though it was emotional love story Between them,still it was a best one in my opinion. I have no word to say about Their chemistry. So if you are too much romantic drama lover just go for it.

But they should give some more time with happy ending. Still they wrote this story with happy ending was good enough. I wish they could give at least 5-10 minute with happy ending moment.

Okay this Kdrama is seriously underrated. Shin Hye Sun is absolutely brilliant in this show, I haven't seen any of her other work, but she nailed this character to the point. Her expressions are captivating, her voice modulation when she's angry to emotional to crying to happy to calling out Dan, is terrific.

Myung Soo or L is below average in first 9-10 episodes, he keeps making dumb stupid faces and nothing else, also felt like his character was not well written, but he picks it up a notch in the last 4-5 episodes and he's probably the reason the show wasn't top rated, replace him with someone like Kim soo hyun or Lee seung gi and this show would have topped the ratings.

Coming to the show, the OST is good, Pray is a lovely track, loved it, but they kinda overused it, although I won't complain much on that because I love the song. Other tracks were beautiful too. The ballet is done nicely, didn't feel like "not their cup of tea", and seemed to be done very professionally.

As a non korean, not all but most of the Korean dramas feels a little a stretched out unnecessarily, the 16 episodes season usually can be wrapped up in 10-12 episodes, and the 20 episodes season can be finished easily in 14-16 episodes, but they're stretched out mostly. This is one of the rare shows that never felt that it's being stretched out. Deserved 16 episodes.

And the last, the love story is beautiful, developed nicely, no unnecessary breakups and forced love triangles for both lead male- female characters. A lot of credit has to be given to Shin hye sun, she carried the show throughout.

A must watch show if you love Kdramas and love stories.
