Will enjoy it if you are a groundhog day fan

First things first , the drama won't be added to my rewatch list . So 8.5 is the highest score I give to the dramas of one time watch.

The reason this drama doesn't become one of my favorite rewatch is I am tired of the repetitive scenes over the 15 episodes (even for the first time )& watching it another time while knowing the possible end result, sounds a bit boring to me .

*****
Let's move to the plot.

1.If you come for this certain type of genre ,you will find it does well & the plot is consistent.

While watching the movies, there are certain types of thrills for various genres.
1.Jump scare type of thrill.
2.Don't know what will happen next ( life threatening )type of thrill
3. Mysterious curious type of thrill

And what 'Reset' gives us the Curious type of who does it & how they will resolve 'The Bomb ' situation

It does not give ' Who will die next ' kind of story,so I am not worried for the protagonists' lives because I know when they die, the next loop will come immediately.

So apart from the mystery of how they will resolve the situation, nothing comes super interesting to me.

It may depend on my mood, but the story arc about each passenger doesn't connect well with me either.
May be part of the reason is I can guess all of them will be alive at the end of the drama.
Another reason is there are many people in worse condition than these bus passengers & they are around me in real life.


2. For the acting , the acting seems natural.

Because this is the thriller type genre and there are no dramatic scenes that characters need to show intense emotions in the story. So,this is the highest praise I can give to the acting , by the given scenes and the story.
