Edge-of-Your-Seat Suspense? No. Compelling Drama? Yes!
Gong Yoo and Seo Hyun Jin, two of my favorite actors, brought their A-game to this series, delivering deeply nuanced performances as emotionally flawed characters. Their chemistry and range truly elevated the story.I also enjoyed the ensemble cast and appreciated how the writers explored the complexities of relationships, though I felt the script could have delved deeper into the these themes.
The flash-forwards to the investigative timeline initially added some intrigue, but they ultimately felt purposeless as the series progressed. I haven't read The Trunk, so I'm not sure if solving the 'crime' was a key element in the original story, but in the show it came across more as an afterthought than a meaningful part of the narrative.
Overall had a good time.

A drama worthy of your entire weekend!
Reset is an an exceptional Chinese drama that had me hooked from the first episode-I binged it in one sitting! The expertly executed storytelling and compelling ensemble cast brought the intriguing plot to life. The time loop concept was handled masterfully, keeping me on the edge as I tried to piece together why everything was happening. Each twist added depth making the show impossible to pause. For fans of time loop dramas, Reset is a must-watch. It's thrilling thought provoking, and endlessly engaging. Highly recommend!Was this review helpful to you?
