Overall Thoughts on Again My Life Korean Drama
If Lee Joon Gi is in the drama then we can expect that the drama will be outstanding. Again My Life Korean drama is about the prosecutor who gets a second chance to punish the evil corrupt politician. This drama is worth your time and attention highly recommend it. One character that gives me a negative vibe is Lee Min Soo (Jung Sang Hoon) his guess and intelligence are to the point but still, he shows his easy-going side. Sometimes I feel that Min Soo also knows something about Hee Woo’s second life. But it will be very interesting to watch how their lives change this time.
