Had Potential But Failed Terribly
I was intrigued by the synopsis and trailers because I really liked the recent time-traveling dramas, but this drama disappointed me so badly. After watching the first 3 episodes, I can see where the drama wants to go but they seem to be trying too hard when they lack the tools and skills to do so. Their script and the acting of the cast is so subpar that it does not hook you in even though the time-traveling aspect grabs your attention at the beginning. There are some unnatural, illogical, and forced scenes between the main couple to push the love line, so it made it hard for me to fall for them even though they already have the chemistry and look good together on screen. The acting is also not that great; there were many instances in the episodes I watched where the expressions and dialogues were carried out very forcefully to relay the particular emotion needed at that moment. Overall, there were just too many illogical moments in general because the scriptwriters wanted certain things to happen. It made me too frustrated when I was watching it.
The filming and editing also made the storyline super confusing to follow unless you focus on it since the timelines are shown messily by jumping around every so often. I also did not like the supporting characters' story and setup at all because based on what I have seen, they seem very two-dimensional and without any logical thinking. The dubbing voices were okay but not the best. It is a shame because all of the soundtracks are pretty good and I wanted to see the angsty scenes. This time-traveling plot definitely had the potential but it doesn't seem to be pulling it off well. I tried to keep watching but I couldn't stand all the problems with it even though I wanted to see the romance and hear the OST.
