Tomorrow had many aspects that truly appealed to me: a compelling cast and an exciting setting with grim reapers and ghosts. I'd say that in itself was enough to give this drama a try. I personally think that episodic dramas can be very addicting if they're done right. Tomorrow concentrated on dark and sad stories where our main characters were working to keep people from taking their own life. I liked the narrative of "the one who can save you is you yourself" because, let's be real, most of us are struggling with things in our lives, be it body image or self-confidence. Those are things that we humans are usually our own enemies. Someone might have brought your confidence down at some point but you decided to believe their words. I feel like that narrative truly is heartbreaking when you think about it. I related to some of these stories and cried over most of them. Death as a topic is definitely risky for a drama but I think that Tomorrow did moderately well with the Christian model that they had chosen. I do not agree with heaven and hell and most definitely I do not think that suicide is a sin. However, in a drama, that idea is an interesting topic to discuss.
Now to my least favorite part of the drama. The overall plot of the main characters was disappointing. While I enjoyed the episodic stories, I can not really say the same about the main characters. The show brushed past too many interesting plot points and characters but decided to do nothing with them. Joon Woong's friend and the last girl that they saved were almost completely brushed aside in the last episode and I thought it was very disappointing. Considering that he was the first character introduced, I wished they had cared a little bit more about his story. Goo Ryung and Joong Gil's story was so much anticipated but it truly fell flat. They showed too many flashbacks and bits in the earlier episodes that when the final story finally was shown, I felt like I had already seen all of this. There was nothing new from what I had already gathered.
In episodic dramas, I personally feel like the smaller stories obviously have to be good but you can't abandon your main characters. In Tomorrow I truly felt like the main three main characters mentioned above ended up not feeling like the main characters at all.
