Classic Thriller Worth to Watch
A-MA-ZINGMusic is on point for the genre, it's a classic drama in its style: thriller and suspense 100%
I love both leads, as well as the rest of the cast, which I think they were quite good picked.
It's a misterious story that developes backwards and its title fits perfectly (go search it). At the same time, stimulates your brain cells, it's super entertaining (unless you hate this genre). It's a bit dark as well, which I think gives it the perfect combo/flavor.
I am thrilling by only reviewing this!

Disappointment
I only recommend this drama to new watchers, with respect to old watchers I don't.It starts pretty interesting, until half way, were the writer (or maybe other influence over the writer) made turn this drama into a boring well-known formula of "the girl ends up with the jerk". There are some other side stories to entertain but after that twist, I sincerely couldn't keep watching: I skipped most of the last episodes. I even felt cringe when the writer use the typical "return of the male lead's ex" before the last episodes. I mean, c'mon...

Good, but nothing new.
Lee Dong Wook knows how to act, and his co-protagonist too (lucky us). His character is quite fun and a bit anti-hero but at the same time the typical hero. About the script I can say: is not new, sorry. The romantic story is well-known as many others, but if you are a fan of this kind of scprits, or maybe a new watcher of korean dramas, then be my guest and enjoy.The music is very good for the story theme =)
It has very interesting actors and characters that for me became more interesting than the leads romantic story.
Anyways, is good, but nothing new.

Super fun, emotional and thrilling
They made it! They brake some molds and we can expect some different stuffs here! You know, not the typical conservative boring romantic familiar korean drama. The script was perfectly developed, and I must say, the male lead (young version) really WORKED HARD and you can tell: his job is amazing. My respects to all the crew!You will be touched as well as laugh out laud. Totally recommend it.

Don't waste your efforts ^^;
The acting of this young actors combined with the direction was flawless. That's why 10☆BUT
it started good and then better and then it was just a pain that I have to finish. I found it REALLY unnecessary tangled to finally save the day with 5 seconds at the end ?♀️
Nah, not recommended.

Fun but...
Well, the story is quite interesting but then you see the character commiting the same mistakes twice and is quite frustrating since you see the same consequences going again: so the story goes and backs. And that's why I didn't give it more stars.The acting is nice, specially from the male lead and the secondary characters.

Beautiful painful
When you read about the real story and you hear the voice of the real person soprano that recorded the song, this show takes another level: it hits you deep. I love Lee Jong Suk, and he made one of his best works here, in particular, the scene with his father. Highly recommended, short as it should, the essence of what could happen between this two lovers before they planned and agreed how tonend their story. Heartbreaking...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

It could be so much more...
The story was promising. And interesting until the point that it started to have sense to detour the love interest of the male lead towards another character. Still, leaving that aside, from the half-or-last-third part towards the end, something went wrong. So yes, watch it once, but only twice if you are blinded by the male lead's handsomness *----*(had to say it)

A Fairytale Story
It's a very cute story about two people that really love each other. With some romantic soap opera elements... there for, a fairytale at the end. But they made it cute, so I recommend it ^_^The song is one I used to hear a lot when Hikaru Utada released it, so for me the experience, had a plus.

You will read a lot of people complaining but, if you have patience and get into the skin of the characters, you'll enjoy it until the end. It's different from all angles. Enjoy ?this is to complete the 500 characters that I'm asked to write lol

Not as good as The Penthouse
BUT acting is ON POINT. They really put everything they got on set.I just found the story not as "good" in soap opera terms as The Penthouse. But I'm still watching until the end. I need to see those villians pay!

Please Lord save me from this actress
Oh jeez, this was hard to watch: and very disappointing. I was indeed enthusiastic about it, beyond the actress skills. Yeah, I bet to them sometimes, with such a "mega production" you tend to expect a lot. You probably won't like me because I consider Gobblin crappie, in which the second couple and the bromance saved it a bit. But here, only the "bodyguard" twin story was entertaining. Still not enough for a rewatch. Now, from those dramas, a multiverse would be great ?.....................

It would be perfect with other ending. Plain and simple as that. If you don't believe me, go ahead and watch ;P.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
