This drama is filled with classic K-Drama clichés. Multiple love triangles? Check. The female lead trips and gets caught by a man (I won’t tell you which man. ;))? Check—multiple times. Those clichés are so obvious that one cannot help but wince when they happen.
However, those clichés are easily overshadowed by the superb acting of every single actor and the skillful plot execution of the writers and producers.
There are plenty of moments when the main leads skillfully bring forth their “mature adult personas” in their everyday interactions. Even the support cast does well with adding depth to the character interaction and story development—especially Ma Jin Joo’s parents (played by Lee Byung Joon and Kim Mi Kyung). Combined with the writing, the characters do well in portraying the realistic challenges of a marriage.
Unlike many dramas, no one character makes the viewer fully hate them. Well, there may be one…but her reasons are justified. Throughout the episodes, one may root for two people, but at the same time, feel bad about the third person who gets left out. It gets to the point where you internally bicker with yourself to determine who to root for.
Another element that makes this drama special is the end of each episode when it reveals a relevant snippet of what really happened in the couple’s lives. Those ending snippets nicely ties each episode together, while showcasing a different side of the story. This makes the viewer empathize even more with each main character, and it makes them want to see more.
I’m glad that I gave this K-Drama a chance.

It was satisfying all throughout. Tied up really nicely. All my questions were answered, all in just 12 episodes. Amazing!
I love how it not only focused on the leads' relationship but also their surroundings and how each of them affects everyone.
NO TOXIC CHARACTERS. NO ANNOYING LOVE TRIANGLES!
This drama will be remembered for a long time. I love you, Go Back Couple!

So emotional T-T
Just finished watching and i haven't cried this much watching a kdrama in a long time. Everything about the storytelling of this kdrama was well done. If anything, this kdrama had the potential to be longer, to give space for secondary characters to also have their fair share of screen time.The thing i fear the most it's misunderstandings. All of a sudden friendships, love relationships and family bonds end because of a misunderstanding or lack of communication. The whole mother/daughter relationship absolutely ended me. My father died 10 years ago and there's just so much i would like to have done with him that i never got a chance to. I love the actress that did the mother's role, she is always so kind and a perfect mom in almost all kdramas i've watched with her. Adore her. I am so happy they had such a lovely dynamic.
Since i liked all characters so much i wished we could've seen how everyone end up like that in the end and explore all characters. But looked like there was not enough time to shoot everything. It's ok. This was more than enough.
I think this is the type of kdrama that teaches you valuable things. A big thank you to the writer!

as usual they lost the main aspect they should focus on and got busy with another aspect
the main idea was to get back to see the value of what u have and don't let problems blind u
to know how to deal with your problems in marriage
to focus how to develop yourself and help others around u to get better
but they focused suddenly more on parenting and youth problems
which really distracted me
and sequently
the romance between the couple got lukewarm
the main leads from my opinion didn't get close to each other as i thought to know the real reasons which led to this situation
they discovered about each other coincidentally which was really illogical for me and made the main idea lost
even when the 2 main leads back as adults they didn't think most of the time as they should according to their age
many side stories were open for me even the 2 main leads which gave u the feeling the director ends the drama in rush
and too many flash backs for the same scene with many different explanations which lead you to be bored
i'm really frustrating for the turn the drama took towards the end :(
this drama is not romance it's purely social

Não consegui gostar do protagonista, não gostava de como ele tratava sua "esposa", não gostava de suas atitudes, o fato de ele nunca se preocupar com o filho que ficou na outra dimensão quando eles viajam no tempo foi algo revoltante e ele não conseguiu se redimir comigo no final da historia....
Como se isso não bastasse, tampouco consegui shippar a mocinha com o secundário porque ele era muito idiota também, aquele tipico romance "empurra e puxa" de um cara mimado e indeciso que demora muito tempo pra perceber que gosta da mulher e mesmo assim, só a trata bem em alguns momentos já em outros a afasta pra bem longe com suas atitudes estranhas!
Tiveram muitos momentos vergonha alheia nesse drama , socorro tinha tempo que não via tantas cenas que me deram tanta vergonha, tudo isso reunido em um lugar só! A cena dela descendo aquela ladeira de salto e caindo nos braços do secundário foi simplesmente ridícula!
O lado bom dos momentos vergonha foi que pelo menos não deixaram a história ficar entediante ao ponto de me fazer querer abandonar.
Os amigos deles eram muito estranhos e sinceramente não curti o romance do casal secundário também.
O resumo da opera é que esse é um daqueles dramas "assistiveis" nada mais do que isso. Não foi o pior drama do mundo, mas tambem não indicaria para os meus amigos, a menos que estejam muito entediados e queiram ver algo bem comum!

Mas não foi isto que aconteceu. Para mim, classificá-lo como comédia não é justo, pois, honestamente, não consegui achar a graça nas situações que eram para ser engraçadas. Como romance ou drama ele também falhou miseravelmente em minha opinião.
Este é um daqueles dramas que você assiste com vergonha, sério, é cheio de situações embaraçosas, vergonhosas, desnecessárias e totalmente SEM NOÇÃO! Sim, eu sei que pode parecer um pouco exagerado da minha parte, mas esta foi a sensação que tive enquanto assistia a este drama.
Realmente não foi nada do que esperava, o mais engraçado é que o drama tem apenas 12 episódios mas por volta do episódio 9 eu já estava enfadada. Não simpatizei com o marido (como aconteceu em Familiar Wife), nem com o secundário, aliás, nem com os amigos (que são todos doidos) e a história não me prendeu.
- É um drama bem mediano, nada de mais. MAS vale destacar que a Jang Nara nunca decepciona em suas atuações!

Una agradable sorpresa
La historia gira en torno a Choi Ban Do y Ma Jin Joo, una pareja que lleva dieciocho años de matrimonio. Cuando se casaron, se amaban mucho, pero esos días terminaron... ¿o no?En el momento en el que deciden poner fin a su relación, los protagonistas viajan en el tiempo y regresan a la época en la que se conocieron, cuando tenían 20 años en 1999... ¿Volverán a empezar con otras personas o se enamorarán nuevamente?
¡Qué grata sorpresa que fue este dorama! Es una de esas historias sencillas y cómicas que se ponen reflexivas y melancólicas por momentos, cosa que amo. Los personajes son muy buenos (tanto protagonistas como secundarios) y todos tienen una historia que contar (por simple y breve que sea). Además, los capítulos me parecieron muy dinámicos y la serie en ningún momento se me hizo pesada (un golazo que solo fueran doce episodios de una hora cada uno, no necesitaba más que eso, el uso del tiempo es excelente).
Siguiendo con los personajes, las relaciones que se van construyendo entre ellos están súper bien desarrolladas. Como los protagonistas están en el pasado sabiendo todo lo que va a pasar después, aprovechan para enmendar ciertos errores que cometieron en relación a sus amigos y familia. La serie se pone muy reflexiva con ese tema, lo que para mí está muy bueno.
Eso sí, si hay una cosa que destaco por sobre todas las demás, es que en ningún momento la culpa total de todo lo que llevó a la pareja principal a querer el divorcio recae solo en uno de los dos protagonistas. Se nota que los dos se equivocaron en muchas cosas, y el viaje al pasado los ayuda a ponerse en el lugar del otro, cosa que está muy bien lograda y me encantó.
Creo que mi única crítica va dirigida hacia ciertos chistes que se hacen en un par de capítulos (sobre todo con respecto al físico de algunos personajes). Pero esto podría justificarlo con que la trama transcurre en el 99, qué sé yo.
En fin, una historia súper linda, muy bien estructurada y con personajes buenísimos que vale la pena ver. ¿Conocían este dorama? ¿Lo vieron?
