KFilm to Miss: Wonderful Nightmare (2015)


Wonderful Nightmare (2015) 


Viewing Platform: Amazon Prime

A powerful attorney does whatever it takes to please her influential and wealthy clients, bullying and taking advantage of the less educated and vulnerable members of society, until one day when she accidentally dies before her time. What happens when the soul-sorting center offers her a chance to live for just one month in another person's life (in order to correct another error they had made) and then go back to her normal life? Will she be able to convince the family that she is a loving stay at home mother and supportive wife, or will everyone know she's someone different?

*The premise had promise, and while I was pleased to see the handsome Song Seung-heon (from “My Princess” 2011), the story didn't really captivate me. The family still had to lose their mother, and there wasn't any guarantee the attorney lady would be able to join the family as the step-mother. There are a couple F-bombs and some sad/scary situations where young girls are taken advantage of, or nearly so, and those are hard to watch. I wouldn't watch this again.*
