She is given a second chance at life by a reaper, but it comes with a condition: she has to find three people outside of her family who would cry genuine tears for her. In order to do this, she borrows the body of Yi Kyung, a part-time employee at a convenience store."



Wow!  All I can say is "Wow!"  If you have been following my drama blog here on blogspot, you would know that I'm not much for sad dramas. 

However, in spite of my lack of interest in melodramatic nonsense, I was interested in the plotline of this drama from the start.  I waited for the drama to finish airing to start watching it, but I couldn't stop watching.  I was completely addicted even though there were times that it made me cry like a baby.

If you like this kind of genre, I think that this drama would be perfect for you.  Even if you don't usually enjoy this type of drama, though, 49 days might very well make you want more.

Is it just me, or would anyone else welcome a spin off drama (a comedy) of life with the scheduler?  This character just makes me smile.
