Angel's Last Mission: Love (Korean: 단, 하나의 사랑) is a 2019 South Korean television series starring Shin Hye-sun, Kim Myung-soo, Lee Dong-gun, Kim Bo-mi, Do Ji-won, and Kim In-kwon. It aired on KBS2's Wednesdays and Thursdays at 22:00 (KST) time slot from May 22 to July 11, 2019.[2]

Synopsis

Lee Yeon-seo (Shin Hye-sun) is a supremely talented and successful ballerina who can say anything that she wants with her family's Fantasia Ballet Company but suffers a devastating accident during acting on stage that leaves her blind. She is bitter and abusive towards her staff, including her loyal secretary and butler, her sly family, and everyone else. Dan (Kim Myung-soo) is an optimistic, carefree angel who is always getting into trouble. In order to return to heaven he is given the seemingly impossible mission of finding true love for Yeon-seo, but ends up falling for her himself.[3]

Notes

  1. 1 2 In order to circumvent Korean laws that prevent commercial breaks in the middle of an episode, what would previously have been aired as single 70 minute episodes are now being repackaged as two 35 minute episodes, with two episodes being shown each night with a commercial break between the two.[1]
  2. Due to some ratings not recorded, the exact average rating is unknown.
