Finished, reading this 125 episode long webtoon just now. This is not the first webtoon I read where people are given a second chance after dying; still, I Iiked how the author developed the plot to make it different. I liked the main characters and how these 3 people that came back to life were connected to each other.

Han Iju and Seo Do Guk helped each other overcome their different trauma as they fell in love with each other. I liked that the author gave us time to enjoy their happy ending, seeing them build a happy home and family. The revenge plot was consistent and worked well. But I think that the workplace subplot was abandoned towards the end. Once Iju gets the position at her father's company, we see people don't like her, and she needs to prove herself. Right before she was pushed into the ocean, she reached out to a potential future partner. After that, we know nothing about how work is doing. We don't get to see her win the employees' trust or meet with the potential partner to present the proposal. We see her working at home, but that's it. Then we saw her painting and having an exhibition, which is fine, but she made such a big issue about getting the company back, I thought we would see more of this. The same with Do Guk, he left his own business to go back to the family business and we don't see much of that either, apart from him taking a paternity leave which I think is super great. Another disappointing thing was Iju's father and her grandfather. Once Iju establishes that she is Mr. Han's daughter, he doesn't appear anymore. He rejects Yura and decides not to help her because of how helping her ould make Iju feel, but he is not part of the family. When she gave birth, he was not there. The only people who were always around were the Seo family and Iju's newly found mother. Her father was not around. Something similar happened to Iju's grandfather. All that fuss she made to protect him, once he gave her the position in the company, he fell ill, and nothing else was said about him. Did he die? I don't know; these inconsistencies made Iju a bit shallow.
