Drama Review: Please Come Back Mister (2016)


Please Come Back, Mister is a South Korean drama production, 16 episode long from SBS. Each episode has a standard duration of 60 minutes. This drama aired from February 24 to April 14 of 2016. Genres include comedy, melodrama, romance and supernatural. 

Kim Yeong Soo is a hardworking man who works at Sunjin Department Store. Han Gi Tak is a chef at the restaurant "Knulp". Both these men suddenly dies, but returns to the living world with the intention of finding the reason as to why they died, and finishing unfinished business during their stay. Kim Young Soo is resurrected as the handsome Lee Hae Joon, and uses his name to his own advantages. Meanwhile Han Gi Tak hides under the name of Han Hong Nan, a beautiful girl with a fierce personality.

This was my first drama starring Rain, and I have to say; I regret not doing it sooner. Rain has everything a poor fangirl could wish for, from the gorgeous smile to the witty behavior. This man got it all.
Oh Yeon Seo portays her character exceptionally well. She plays the role of Han Hong Nan, or should I say "Han Gi Tak", who involuntarily "possessed"  the body of a young girl. Her portrayal of a fierce man who does not like to be looked down upon is as good as it can be.

I really do recommend this drama, even though it might not be one of your typical dramas. "Please Come Back, Mister", has been another emotional ride. I have lost count on how many times I ended up crying and then switched to laughing so hard I had trouble breathing. The mixture between comedy and melodrama is a perfect combination. If you love a little bit of dark humor, "Please Come Back, Mister" is totally the drama for you.

I rate this drama 8.5/10, the reason why I do not give PCB,M a higher score, is mainly because the ending made me feel quite taken aback. But I have to admit I enjoyed every single episode of this amazing drama. If you like dramas that does not  include stereotypical k-drama rules, I suggest you give it a shot.

Taegukgi 태극기 (Meaning: Taeguk flag)

The South Korean flag, also known as the Taegukgi. Consist of three different parts; the rectangular white background, the red and blue Taeguk placed in the center, and four different trigrams (selected from the original eight (Chinese: Bagua)) placed in each corner of the flag.

The upper half circle, red, of Taeguk means yang and the lower half circle, blue, means yin. This symbol comes from the philosophy of yin and yang, and represents the balance of the universe.

The four trigrams together represents the principle of movement and harmony. Each trigram represent one of the four elements; earth, water, air and fire. Each trigram consist of th
