EP 2

This is absolutely fantastic. Within just two episodes it has already become my most favorite drama of 2024. Although i have enjoyed many dramas this year, none have captivated me as much as this one has in such a short time.The main reason is that everything in this show reminds me of one of my all time favorite drama, True Beauty. From their houses to the bookstore, family comic scenes and school settings, its all reminiscent of it.Even SML Kim Taesung's introduction feels similar to Han Seojun's and his first encounter with Im Sol mirrors Seojun & Jukyung's. Their dynamic seems poised to replicate Han Seojun & Jukyung's similar to Tom & Jerry relationship. Im Sol is damn funny, every action of hers, particularly pretending to be a fake monk to warn Sunjae about his injury has me bursting with laughter.Moreover, its intriguing how time freezes whenever Im Sol attempts to reveal the future to someone. It will be thrilling to witness how she and Sunjae alter their destinies.Sunjae, by contrast appears reserved. It seems he harbored feelings for Sol for a long time but he couldnt tell her and she also never paid any attention to him, leading to a mismatched timing between them.I cant express how much, i have missed this kind of shows in the dramaland.

EP 1

EP 1 completely surpassed my expectations. I loved it from the first minute to the last. Every moment was enjoyable and i felt a range of emotions from sadness to joy.Kim Hye Yoon truly shined in EP 1, she was undoubtedly the star of the episode. Her versatility was remarkable, she portrayed anger, humor, mischief and more with ease. She also brought back memories of her Extraordinary You era.Byeon Wooseok also delivered good performance in EP 1, capturing the portrayal of depression as an idol convincingly.Having read the webtoon's available 40 chapters, i noticed a few changes but i liked them as they added depth to the story.EP 1 evoked reminiscences of the writer's previous works like True Beauty and Extraordinary You. The school scenes resembled those of Extraordinary You, while other scenes resonated with the style of True Beauty.Finally we have a proper youth romcom after a long wait. Mondays are bound to be delightful from now on.I believe this show will undoubtedly become as popular as True Beauty in the future, propelling its actors especially Byeon Woo-seok to stardom similar to Cha Eunwoo & Hwang InYeop's rise after True Beauty.Overall im eagerly anticipating the next episode.

EP 4

The time travel rules here are quite intriguing, they make things exciting unlike other time travel dramas where you only return to the present once your mission is fulfilled. In this episode, we got to see things from Sunjae's perspective. He was always been there for Sol, like he is the one who saved her. He knew who he was going to call on that radio show, etc.Another interesting point from this episode is that Sol can disclose that she is from the future to anyone (as long as they dont believe her) but she cant reveal specific future events. However, how was she able to inform Taesung about the fire in her home?? Did the fire actually started at same time making it a present event automatically??

I'm so happy because Hanna chose to be on Ain's side. I hope it stays like that until both achieve their dreams. Ain is only able to show emotions when she's with her seniors. I've only seen her worried for her seniors. Hanna's father should listen to her. His son doesn't look like the filial type. He should cut the bullshit and tell Hanna the truth that he doesn't want her to have ambition because she's a woman. He wants her to be a trophy wife. Hannah, go show him what you're capable of! I want her to thrive better than her brother. Soon, he's going to create a mess and try to bring her down.

This was a good episode. I'm finally feeling…

This was a good episode. I'm finally feeling the connection between Han Bom and Seo Ki Joo, which up til now, I haven't been convinced of. The story is okay, but the actors haven't convinced me until now. This episode, it's begun to be believable. Things which have helped: they've begun to be honest with each other, just openly showing that they need each other; Han Bom is no longer (at least here) being pushy and overbearing; Ki Joo isn't acting like a scared dog, but taking some charge of his situation, and realising it's not just him anymore, but the two of them together. A really nice development shown this episode is Seo Ki Joo realising that he wants to live. He never really had a reason before; just believed he would die at this age, and that was his fate. He had no reason to hope otherwise. But now, he has someone who makes him want to live; someone he wants and needs to live for. She doesn't want him to leave her, too, like her grandmother. She needs him to stay. So he has a will to do his best to live, now. A reason beyond himself. We all need this reason; living for ourselves isn't enough.
