It is incredible how this drama became better and better. The acting is so wonderful! You will find yourselves crying along with the actors because their emotions make the scenes look so real!! You just want to know what’s going to happen next! The scenes are unpredictable and everything is interesting. Waiting for the next episode is torturing!!
If you like historical dramas, give this one a try and watch it! Forget about the quality of the first episodes. Soon you’ll see that this has an enormous potential and you’ll become addicted. You’ll fall in love with the actors and the story and probably it will be one of the best dramas you’ll ever see.

If you care about history and politics and also don't mind to get a little bored, then sure. Go ahead and watch!
I confess I have mixed feelings about this drama. In my opinion, it started well and was a bit funny in the beggining. However they dragged this for toooooo long. Seriously, I had to take a break from this drama for... several months.
Overall, the main characters are fine. The plot is also easy to understand. Someting I also liked was that the story focused in the life of Prince Gwanghae since he was a kid/teenager until his adult age.
I really enjoyed Seo In Guk's acting. You can tell he grew a lot during the whole show. He was actually my favourite character because he always stood up for what he believed. Shin Sung Rok's acting was also amazing!
My conflict with this drama is all about the politics and the whole big web of treason that usually comes along with sageuks. That's why the story was dragged. And that's why my rate is 7 in the overall.
As for my rewatch value... yeah I don't picture myself watching this again. There are better dramas in the world. Moving on!
This is just what I think. If you really want to watch the drama, please do so. In the end you might have a different opinion :)

However I didn’t like the romance scenes. I know that they are young actors but I think that they sould be more realistic.
In this drama Jung Yong Hwa proved that he is actually a good actor. He looks a bit cold hearted and because of that he lacks emotion but deep inside he is really sweet.
As this is also a drama for young adults we can see the characters going through a growing process. This is really good because we realize that people around us influence us and that we must let ourselves grow along with the changes around us. We must look at a relationship with a mature look and be honest with the ones we love. Mostly we shouldn’t let little things ruin our relationship and we should work on it to make it right.
If you like music this drama is great for you! If you never watched a drama before this one is probably the best to start with. The story is really light, easy to watch. It’s not a must watch drama but it’s a nice one. Somehow I feel that it's something missing in the drama. That's why I say it isn't the best drama ever. It's an average one.

First of all, I enjoyed this drama because it’s an historical drama. Though there isn’t romance, it has a touch of modernity because of Jin. In the historical part it’s interesting to see how people used to live and see how there is so much of conspiracy in a court. The political part is really good. The drama may be a bit boring because problems arise, calm down and then arise again!! It’s repetitive sometimes.
But despite this, Time Slip Dr. Jin is a worth watching drama!!
The acting is also really good. As the main characters you have Lee Bum Soo who did an awesome performance. In my opinion he is the heart of the drama. I was also surprised by the acting skills of Kim Jae Joong. You must really watch it for yourselves! Don't listen to the rates. Just watch it!

The story was a bit cliche… and there were some conspiracies but no big deal. I found it boring. Watchable but boring. I believe it would be better if it had half the episodes.

It’s a drama for young people like teenagers and young adults. It has a good story. As a first drama it is kinda nice to watch. It doesn’t have that much heavy themes. And the OST is really good! It mostly captivates you for the OST.
If it was now I probably would pick another drama to watch first. Not that it is bad…it’s just… not that good… at least in my opinion!
You know why it became so popular? Lee Hong Gi, vocalist of FT Island. Jung Yong Hwa, vocalist of CN Blue. And also Jang Geun Suk. Well I think this is a bit sad.. I mean, people only told me to watch it because they were dazzled with those famous singers. Not because they are good actors nor because of the story! But just because they are in a drama and they are famous! This is unbelivable…
Now that I saw more dramas after this one I can see what is a good performance or not and those certainly are not actors.
I kinda liked Yong Hwa’s performance. Not Hong Gi. I also liked Jang Geun Suk but I rather see him in Mary Stayed Out All Night. Probably because he was a really cold person in You’re Beautiful. And I HATED Park Shin Hye’s performance. Too much sloppy, innocent, childish, repetitive, ANNOYING!!
You just have to know that if you want to start watching dramas you can start by this one but there are so many good dramas to start with!! Or else.. do not watch this drama! watch it after watching others, if you’re really curious. Or else, do whatever you want! But this drama lacks so much! If I was the director I would have developed it better! It is funny though… but I guess that after seeing such good dramas as I saw after you just realize that this one isn’t that good.
