Not a binge Watch
Unlike many other Cdramas, this one stands out with shorter episodes, typically lasting around 30 minutes, with the final episode extending to 40 minutes. Despite its brevity, with only 16 episodes, the drama boasts a compelling plot. However, the execution leaves something to be desired, as the story continually introduces new twists and turns. Just when you think a twist has resolved, another one appears.Some plot points remain unresolved by the end, and attempts by the director and scriptwriter to address these loopholes often lead to further confusion. Nevertheless, the standout performances of the entire cast, particularly the leads and the second leads, are a significant highlight of this drama.
This drama took me by surprise when I initially watched the first five episodes. For the first time in a long while, it felt like we had a refreshing story with minimal tropes and intriguing characters. However, as the series progresses, it loses its grip on the time travel plot, resulting in a mixed bag by the end.
The male lead is the standout star of the show, delivering an impressive performance from start to finish. His portrayal of a playboy pretending to be a spoiled brat to protect the female lead was particularly captivating. The female lead was good, but her mediocre acting was disappointing. She reminded me of the female lead from "The Impossible Heir," showing little to no reaction throughout the drama.
It's suitable for someone who enjoys sci-fi. Despite an interesting concept, the plot is poorly written, and riddled with flaws, plot holes, and unanswered questions. The ending felt very rushed, suggesting that the drama needed more time or episodes. A time travel drama should be cleverly written with clear explanations, but this one made an average attempt at best. Nonetheless, it was an interesting watch, with many clichés served up but also carefully garnished with intriguing time and space twists. I didn't expect it to be this enjoyable!
