This drama is adorable.

Chen Zhe (Yuan Xiao) and Wu Di Shen (Yue Nan Xing) Oh my goodness, these two were the cutest couple. They displayed great chemistry and were believable. I loved the couple of Luo Ming Jie (Lu Zi Chen) and Qu Jing Jing (Ye Qing) although their chemistry was not 100% but doable. The writers got the storyline right, it was different from other Time Travel dramas. The only similarity to the others is that the water was the sole source of time travel. I need to see a time-travel drama that doesn't use water. A drama that can pull out my emotions deserves a 10. I didn't pay much attention to the music because I was too focused on the story. You will be satisfied to watch all the episodes... don't skip or you will miss some great parts.

Only 10 Episodes, wished it was more. For some reason, I had a hard time waiting for the next episode just so I can watch what happens next. I know one thing for sure... SK can act, he is a special kind of actor, he has everything that will make it happen. My focus was his demeanor in how he plays his character... just like in Navillera. This young man has been blessed with some special skills. I will support this new actor 110%. Han So Hee was the best pairing for this romance. HSH and SK had the right chemistry for this storyline. I hope to more from these two. The rest of the acting team, and everyone else who made this storyline happen. I say thank you as always it wouldn't complete the storyline without them. I love how the writer made this about students of art when Love is an art on its own. Thank you! Song CaN!

It took me a while to get into this drama. The first 10 episodes were really dull and I don't blame the actors/actresses, but I do blame the storyline. The story did pick up after episode 10. Cheng Xiao (Lu Qing Qing) is the type of actress that needs to grow on me because my first impression was okay but not someone I can truly praise right now. I would have to see more acting from her since this is just my 2nd time viewing her. She really does well in dancing and singing. I did love the main lead actor Jason Gu (Nangong Yi Xin) but this was my first time seeing him play a serious role. I loved all of the martial art and the fantasy was great. The costumes of the Empress were all beautiful, never seen that design before and I applaud whoever is the designer. Thank you to all the actors/actresses who did very well.

I usually will talk about how good actors acting skills in their portrayal of the character they played but I will not for this drama... I will talk about how good the whole team did on the topic of rescuing lives in a disaster situation. The whole team was great. The visuals of the ice crevice scenes were incredible toward the end. I have only one critique. I am wondering if the writers had to cut scenes out toward the end. The way he got from the cave sliding on water ice wasn't shown... also I didn't care too much for the ending. I still gave it a good rating because of the awareness of how it is important for these programs to exist to rescue lives. I thank all those who were involved in making this drama.

NOTE: I have been watching Luo Lun Xi for a few years now. When I saw him in Ashes of Love, I felt he had a healthy-looking body frame. One other was And the Winner is Love and Love is Sweet his body frame looked healthy too. I was concerned that his body frame was very thin in this drama, I don't know if he had to lose weight for this drama or if I hope he is not going through some other things. I am just a person who worries about the people I care about.

This was a very good storyline. I love these historical moments in Korea. Kim Min Jae who played the main character Yoo Se Poong, I am very impressed with his acting skills. I have watched almost every drama Kim Min Jae has played in. He is now one of my favorite Korean Actors. Kim Hyang Gi in Poong, who played Seo Eun Woo. The character she played was not shown that much which is why I rated it 8.5. I loved how the screenwriters turned the role of a doctor into an investigator. This is a good watch.

The writers did alright with this drama. I mean it was full of suspense but I guess most of it. The only thing I didn't see coming is the actress who played... Nah, you have to watch it and see for yourself.

Seo Kang Joon did absolutely everything he was born to do with his great talents and that is act the part of the story. I loved his fight scenes. I'm so glad that this story for Seo Kang Joon was not about revenge but finding out the truth so thank you, writers. Han Seok Kyu, I'm afraid of you, you played your character very believable... *shiver*. If that was reality, I would be more fearful of you than the ones actually being so dang evil.

Police Corruption is no joke! There suppose to protect and serve the community they work in. That part...

Dilraba Dilmurat, Leo Wu, these two talented Chinese celebrities, grabbed at my heart in this drama. Another strong woman Chinese drama role for Dilraba Dilmurat. Amazingly well done! Leo Wu, OMG, so skilled at his job. I love both!
Liu Yu Ning who played Hao Du had me scared and I wasn't even in this drama. He was so convincing but he turned out awesome. Rosy Zhao Le Yan did great, she was perky but knew how to change from being perky to very serious. I applaud her. I was amazed at the actor who Mu Jin. I will be looking for dramas with the above cast. The rest of the cast made the storyline happened, I have to thank them. Everything else, the sound, the fantasy, the visuals, costume, set design.... just perfection.

I understand why they put in the cartoon (comic book). I am pretty sure this was a high-budget drama and I blame it all on the Pandemic. Sometimes you gotta do with what you have to make it work. I applaud the whole team!

It took me two months to watch this because when you see things that could be real you get that fear in your heart., I had already watched 20 minutes of it at that time. I couldn't bring myself to watch it until now. I needed to feel God as we are going through this coronavirus. I felt God tonight. I know he is near. I pray and hope that God hears our cry and feels our pain to rid us of this deadly virus.

Both of my top 10 South Korean actors are in this SK movie. I loved that Park Seo Joon was playing the good guy but I hated that Woo Do Hwan was playing the not so good part. For me, the visuals felt so real and that's why I stayed away from it until now. The writers told this story like it should be told. It brings the awareness that a lot of people blame God or are angry with God because he doesn't save our loved ones from death. That's a whole different story. I thank the writers.

This is one of the cutest romantic dramas with a great storyline from Episodes 1 to 36. One of my favorite actors is in this drama and I wished he had more dramas out there. Chen Fei Yu (Li Xun) He was excellent in the role that was given to him. CFY made this character his own, he was very believable. Zhang Jing Yi (Zhu Yun) who played opposite Chen Fei You, did very well after episode 19. I felt at first she didn't have chemistry but that chemistry with CFY came out of nowhere. I love the CFY wardrobe and man does he look good in jeans and a black turtleneck long-sleeve shirt. I loved how the writers wrote in a band and how friends stayed friends all the way up to the end. Well just a few of them. A lot of corruption in this drama. I loved how the writers worked out the crisis and called them plans. Anyway, don't skip episodes.

This story was so cute and the servant of Prince Yi Rim had me laughing. It is amazing in this era that Historians were created to write every move and words of nobles. It reminds me of the court reporters we have in the American Court Judiciary system.

Shin Se Kyung who played the Historian Goo Hae Ryung Cha Eun Woo who played Prince Yi Rim did great and I became an immediate fan. I did look at their age and Cha Eun Woo did great acting for his age and very mature for his age. Whereas Shin Se Kyung who is like 7 years older than Cha Eun Woo and you wouldn't know that if you didn't research their birthdates. I loved it. Afterward, I researched Cha Eun Woo and found that he belongs to a Korean Music Group. This young man can sing! I love some of the songs he sang. I love how the Asian Movie makers have their main leads sing the main title song. I will check out their other TV shows or movies they made as well. Thank you to all the Cast, Writers, Visuals, and the music.

Very Disappointed!

This Drama Series was going fine and I thought I was going to love the storyline until I got to episode 29. I don't know what happened to the storyline but it definitely went to the left! Very disappointed and thought this was going to have a great romance storyline to this. I did watch it to the end and maybe skipped a few episodes to see the ending. I burst out laughing when I saw a naked man run across the screen looking like he was wearing a diaper. I was in so much pain doing so. I couldn't digest even the ending part. I'm sorry, wishing that the writers would have kept with the storyline with the 3 main leads in the first 29 episodes.

I really felt sorry for the actors and actresses especially for Wu Jin Yan, Mao Zi Jun, and Nie Yuan. *sigh*

There are several American movies that have a similar storyline and I didn't like any of them. I have it to give Yang Mi and Wallace Huo deep respect for doing this project. I loved the action scenes of life being repeated over and over... wished we could do do-overs like this movie. I never would've guessed the ending, it totally threw me off. Wallace played his part... I just loved his facial expressions when he gets serious. Kudos to the young man who played the son. I saw this a couple of months ago but decided to rewatch again today. Now, this is the Yang Mi I love, she is all in this. Thank you and Respect to the "Fatal Countdown: Reset" team, awesome job.

Wallace Chung, you gave it your all Bravo! AngelaBaby you were awesome!

Wallace Chung, you gave it your all Bravo! AngelaBaby you were awesome!

Another fantastic drama series. Wallace Chung, my first time viewing this actor and now he will be added to my Top 10 list. The chemistry between Wallace and AngelaBaby was on point. I believed their storyline romance. Again, the true meaning of what "Agape Love" is all about. This is the 4th drama that shows the definition of what Love is really about. The more I watch it, OMG my heart just melts. Legend of Fuyao and General and I are tied for first place in the Romance! Those kiss scenes, WOW just wow! Whoever said that AngelaBaby did not reciprocate those kisses... um tell me if your REAL husband was in the studio while these kisses were going on... would you reciprocate back? I think NOT. The actress, AngelaBaby, made up for it when Bie Ji lifted her up and kissed her in Episode 54.

Moving on... The visuals on this piece were awesome. I didn't see any flaws because I was too focused on the storyline. The other cast members also did a fantastic job. Thank you to the team of Producers, Writers, Visual, Music, Lighting, Scene Location, all of it! The music score "A Familiar Scenery" and "The Lone Flower" was the best! Again, Wallace Chung and AngelaBaby WOW! Thank you to the other couples that also did great. Sun Yizhou was also believable, their tears got me! Zou Yang, I just love you, you added that spice to some of the scenes you played in. The only problem I had with this is when Ping Ting met with Bie Jie's friend on a hill saying "We will meet again" in the last episode... um excuse me writers but you could have left that out! Why is it that screenwriters always have to put a second female into the mix? My goodness, Bie Jie only has a love for Ping Ting leave it alone! He is a ONE woman man! Thank you very much! Okay now moving on... so I rated the storyline at a 9 for that reason alone.

#1 NOTE: Wallace Chung, I must say puts himself into the character he plays especially in this drama project. I have been viewing his song list and interviews he does with various outlets in China... He is definitely a different person outside of the characters he played. But, I tell you what... When Wallace Chung looks at a woman romantically, I'm done! That's what an actor is all about... I would like to know how many times he has to go through one scene to get it right. That would be interesting.

#2 NOTE: I have a question why did AngelaBaby's real-life husband Huang Xiaoming want to be present during the kissing scenes? It seems like a message was given That just ruined it for me. It didn't ruin the storyline romance but ruined me from ever watching HX in a drama series. I know... I know... it's her husband... but husbands are supposed to have trust. BUT... I feel sorry for all the husbands whose wife co-stars as the #1 Main lead with Wallace Chung.

#3 NOTE: The hard work the cast members had to endure in the HEAT just to make this great movie, I thank all of you because you went through it because of your passion for acting and you did it for your fans. I commend and applaud you. AND those mosquitos uggh.

Overall, I can't get this movie out of my head... lol I'm on my 8th rewatch. Those who don't rate it a 10... umm... well... now, who would rate this a low rating of 4 or lower? Going to watch more of the BTS on youtube. Jealousy is on-screen and off-screen... wow. a 1-point rating seriously (husband maybe)!!!! I never witnessed a review that demeans one of the actors on set like she/he knew this actor personally. I was raised with my grandmother stating... if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all. It shows the type of person who demeans. smh. that's a low blow!

I think all the cast did great! I did have a problem with the storyline, it took like 11 episodes for me get interested in it. I'm not crazy about women being rude all of the time to someone who cares a lot about her. I think that's what threw me off about the story. I am seeing too many dramas that follow in the same story. I almost dropped this drama. If this was one of the first storylines I saw, I probably would've rated it higher. I see that everyone else rated it a little higher but that's the way it goes. I loved the happening ending. I think the story could've just been a little different then what it was but hey I'm not writer well yes, I am, but I write poetry. Really, that when two children are born at the same time a king would have to kill one of them... Lord, I wouldn't want to be born in that era.
