Synopsis: 

The story portrayed the journey of a soul from a person’s body that is at a comatose state in the hospital. At this point, the soul is given a chance to return to her body only if she will accomplish the task asked of her by the death guardian. The task can only be executed through the help of another person's body to borrow, proven that she has pure heart and at the same time, was chosen by the death angel. Her mission is to find at least three persons who truly cared for her in her lifetime in a span of 49 days with exclusion to her family members. At first, she was confident enough to finish the task without a problem. But then, later on as she gets to learn her friends from another person’s point of view, everything is totally different from what she believed in.


What is important is that if she is able to report to the death angel the three persons who genuinely care about her, then she would be able to return to her body and live again.

Commentaries: I'd give this drama a very good rating. Generally, you will appreciate it mostly because you'd feel the need to reflect on the people who are part of your life. But on a negative note, you'd somehow feel like doubting on everyone's intention for sharing a relationship with you. Well, just like what they say, it's hard to find true friends in this world, and most especially when you're rich and popular because probably people are only after their benefit of getting close to you, and you would even feel paranoid whether they even wish for the bad things that occur to your life or not. However, it also teaches us to be selective of the people whom we trust so that we could protect our happiness from the risks of depending it to others and also, to save our time and energy and use it properly with people who are more deserving of it.

Casts: It's easy to love this series because of them. No one has overdone their acting and everything came out so naturally. Plus, everyone was commendable as far as characterization is concerned.

The Ending: I have to say that I was truly satisfied of the ending. I can't help but to cry which I consider pleasurable because you can easily relate to the story and it could apply to anyone's life.  As far as the ending is concerned, it's a must watch!
