Where to watch it:

Fantasy at its best

It’s been a long time since I watched this series, but I’ll try to make the most of my memories.

Initially, I gave “While You Were Sleeping” 6 stars. Nevertheless, I have changed my mind. Usually, I provide the extra heart to series that have left a mark on me. No matter how much time passes, I still go to them when I need comfort. However, as good as it was, “While You Were Sleeping” wasn’t unforgettable for me.

The storyline is good. I won’t argue that. Fantasy and romance is a combo the Korean entertainment industry excels at. Along with “While You Were Sleeping,” “Strong Girl Do Bong Soon,” “Alchemy of Souls,” and “He is Psychometric” have shown that fantastic dramas aren’t just childish stories (a shout out to my friends😉).

However, what attracted me the most from this series was the intrigue. I was constantly holding my breath, not knowing what would come next.

Overall, “While You Were Sleeping” is a must-watch series. It has the cast, the plot, and the OST to be an all-rounder series.
