15. Padam Padam 빠담빠담... 그와 그녀의 심장박동소리 (2011-2012) Korean

Jung Woo Sung, Han Ji Min, Kim Bum 

Drama Rating: 6/10      Neck Score: A

Kim Bum as an angel?  Yes, please!  This was hard to watch at first because Jung Woo Sung made crazy eyes all the time, but seeing what his character went though, I guess that's natural.  He was sort of channeling a mistreated dog that tends to bite or bark at anything after a while.  Really well acted, way interesting plot.  A man who was framed for a school stabbing murder stays in prison for 16 years and has a friend (also from prison) who claims to be an angel.  He keeps having miracles that rewind his life every time he dies so he has a chance to correct wrong choices and save people.  There are lots of interesting plot twists, a cute love story, but it starts to drag a bit at the end.  I took a long break from it before actually finishing it.  It's not like the action is drawn out needlessly, it's just very slow paced.  There is also a lot of hateful people in it, you just want to punch their hateful faces.  Still, it was very well made, very beautifully shot and Kim Bum with wings is hot!
