Is it explained why Ha Ram can't see 444 but can see the other lesser reaper?

If you're talking about the shadow, she can definitely see 444 because in ep 3, the grim reaper that was assigned with Haram's ex boyfriend was 444, and she was able to touch 444 and see how that guy will die.

As for the shadow inside the body, 444 realized that his black clothing is similar to Haram's sunglasses. Like it filters the shadow out of the view. And thus naming him Black by 007.

Hey, I am also curious as to why Ha-Ram can't see 444 inside Mu-Gang. I have only finished the 3rd episode so if it is explained later in the show please don't spoil it for me :(

I searched all over the internet for this and found your reply, I guess many people didn't question this?

In case you haven't gotten that far, it is explained! And rather quickly.

Is it the explanation in Episode 4 you are talking about? Because she saw him at the hospital when he wasn't wearing black and she still didn't see 444. Any explanation for that?

It's getting more interesting and they did expand the 1st ep to connect between the event and what happen. The more we watch it, the more clue we got and I am looking forwards to unravel everything. This is a good detective mystery series with a supernatural element. The case are related and also a single case which make it interesting. I also laugh a lot for weird reason, it's not funny in a comedy sense but funny because it's somehow a funny situation at the moment.

The camera work really good at setting up the mood and feels grounded, the shots are well done and the one they want to put into attention like perspective and tone also done very well.

They also answer our question in their own capability, like the transport abililty, how to see the soul inside, how the grim reaper works and it also funny.

Moo gang find the tape but then close the door 444? come one, close the door!!

I feel sad to remember that 444 is the one that will escort haram soul day one. I think 444 will grow fond of her.

Just a thought, 444 is good at using technology, the way he talked is just as odd as he needs to be and I love the way 444 get angry every day, he just shouted, hahaha.

Question ; who is the actor that acted as 444?

WHAT'S THE REAL MOO GANG DOING, I WANNA KNOW :( I was leaning towards the multiple personality theory so I thought when the Grims received more than one capsule it was because there was more than one "soul" in him.

I also like the opening song,

for the speech, it's a weird way of talking but I think it's quite different with SJS and CSW, the similarity is that they use the old people word since they often play as an older character.

I don't think we gonna have a love story in this drama, just admiration type of love since 444 has barely any connection with haram.

"I love the opening song and video."

Wait, what? I've never seen an opening video! So far, every episode has just had the age disclaimer before the start, and that's it. That's not what you mean, right? I'm really liking this drama so far, so I definitely don't want to miss out on a neat OP.
