[Discussion] Nine: Nine Times Time Travel

Synopsis:

Park Sun-Woo (Lee Jin-Wook) works as an anchorman at a TV broadcasting station. He is in love with newsreporter Joo Min-Young (Jo Yoon-Hee), who is bright and honest. Park Sun-Woo then obtains 9 incense items, which allows him to go back 20 years in time. Park Sun-Woo travels to the past.
....
CBM reporter Min-Young (Jo Yoon-Hee) is in the country of Nepal, covering an expedition team as they attempt to climb Annapurna Mountain. Min-Young hears that senior reporter Sun-Woo (Lee Jin-Wook) is set to arrive in Nepal and goes to the airport to welcome him.
Suddenly, Sun-Woo kisses Min-Young. This is shocking to Sun-Woo, because she confessed her feelings for him, but he didn't seem to care. Sun-Woo asks Min-Young to live together for only 6 months.
Meanwhile, Sun-Woo goes to the police station and confirms that the frozen body is his older brother Jung-Woo (Jeon No-Min). Sun-Woo blames himself, because he saw Jung-Woo shortly before his death and he looked like something was wrong.
That evening, Sun-Woo can't go to sleep. At that moment, he sees something unbelievable.

Who's watching this? What are your thoughts about it?

It is a perfectly written and directed drama. I don't know how to express it. For me, it is the best drama for 2013 so far, especially among time-travel themed dramas. I like the way it focuses on how the present changes because the past changed. Also the message it is giving out - "you cannot change the past" - is great. I like all the twists and suspense the drama is giving me. Can't wait to see the next episode.

I am watching this, it's probably my favorite currently airing drama at the moment :)

This is very underrated, probably the best currently airing drama now.

I agree that this drama is underrated even though it's much better than many other time travelling dramas.

On another note: *Do you know what's the line I hate in the whole world? Uncle* Damn! That line was too good!

That line made my heart skip a beat or something, I just love Sun Woo! He's very clever and knows how to talk.

I am just dying to see the next ep!

I know right?!! I can't believe he will go back to being an uncle, it makes me irritated somehow.
