The artistic side of my mind screams out how beautiful and aesthetic this film is, but at the same time this film was fucked lmao. Since watching this film i still debate whether i hated or loved this film.
It is to this day on of the most what-da-fuck movies i have ever seen, but at the same time, this silent film paints a portrait that intrigues my artistic soul so fiercely, i don't even know.
You're either going to hate this film or you're going to love it. There is no in between here, my friend.
The story itself, is so weird, after you watch it, you sit back and recount what just happened and you won't even understand, it's that weird. I could go into detail of how weird this film is, but spoilers are not allowed.
If you plan to watch this film, have an open mind. that's all i can say.

If you like the exploration into corruption of power within people you're going to love this film. This was a very interesting film, it explores what happens to corrupted people and consequences made to those people, however, the main protagonist Tae-soo (Played by Jo In sung) contrasts from other corrupted characters you see in other movies and dramas.
This movie is definitely original and well created, it'll give you all different kinds of emotions (if you get emotional throughout good films/dramas like me)
Also, Doo il (Played by Ryu Jun yeol) d a m n b oi, he looks fine af as a gangster, if you're a fan of Ryu Jun yeol you'll be sitting there waiting for him to come on scene because daMN.
I highly recommend this film, it's hard to talk about it without giving away spoilers but you won't be disappointed, this is a great film.

This film was very beautiful, i definitely think it's underrated.
Even though there are flaws in this film (in a logical sense some of the things didn't make sense) but it was overlooked by how intriguing the story line is.
I sat at the end of my seat waiting to see what the outcome would be.
If you're looking for a super romantic man, Soo hyun (Past) is your man, he is just so freaking adorable and he is aesthetically pleasing to the eye you'll be waiting for his scenes to come up. Soo hyun (future) is a romantic man too, but in a different way, you'll understand when you watch it! ~
This film is very suspenseful (well it was to me), i definitely think you will not get bored!
(and if you do, well, sorry ;;)
If you enjoy time travel, romance and (in a way) mystery I recommend this film to you!

There is also quite a lot of famous actors in this film -
Lee Dong wook, Park Shin hye, Seo Kang joon, Park Seo joon, Kim joo hyuk, Kim Hee won, Lee Hyun woo, Kim Sang ho... etc! I was quite surprised to see that many famous actors for such a short period of time in this film, i was quite impressed.
They all played the same character really well.
I love the message of this film, that love comes from the inside of others than the outside.
Power of love!
If you're looking for a feels-good cute movie i recommend this film to you!

(This is the first time ever writing a public review, so if some of the things i write are low key spoilers, then i apologise, i in no way want to spoil anything or ruin the show for the readers who are thinking of watching the show, i am just trying to write about my thoughts without giving anything away, which is quite difficult.) The story of this show intrigued me, i love the whole 'Detective sees ghosts\ helps them solve their murders', it's what made me want to watch this show, the mystery the creators gave truly was there, and i wish they continued that, i wish the show was based on that story line, like the show Cold Case x the ghostly twist, it would have been amazing, however it did not go that way.
The main protagonist Detective Shi On (Played by So Yi hyun) ruined the show for me. Her over exaggerated expressions through out the show really put me off, For example - even after many episodes she would still be so surprised to see a ghost, as if she had never seen one before, and that really was displeasing to me, because the expressions she made in certain situations ruined the 'moment' in a way, if over-exaggerated expressions is your thing, by all means, i recommend this show. If not, it'll probably stress you out as much as it did for me.
This is merely a personal preference - but I wish she was a stronger person, both physically and emotionally, she was a very weak woman for a police officer and it made everything seem - for a lack of a better word - messy.
I wish the relationship between Shi On and Hyung Joon (Played by Kim Jae Wook) had their own show, the relationship between the two was so freaking adorable, i wish that couple had their own cute show where it has a happy ending and everything is adorable af. I truly only stayed to watch the flashbacks of the two.
Hyung joon's present character was very important yet very unnecessary, i understand why his character was important in the development of the story, however at the same time, in many scenes his presents was unnecessary, which really ruined some scenes.
I could write 100 paragraphs on how so many "coincidences" happened, from coincidental phone calls to coincidental characters entering scenes at the "right time", it was truly cringe-worthy. Nothing was smooth and casual, everything was just sudden and coincidental.
The ending of the show was the icing on the cake, i wish i could write about what a catastrophe it was but i cannot write spoilers, and that's what i would be doing. All i can say is - it was unnecessary.
(I'm not trying to bash the actors, or the creators of the show, it's just the show had the potential to be something really great and it went in a different direction in my eyes.
I hope no one becomes angry at my words, this was just my experience, if you enjoy/enjoyed this show, i am truly happy for you.)
