I always say 12ep dramas get less eps for 2 reasons, either the plot needed less time or the writers knew they can't drag it, and this falls in the 2nd category just like most 12epers..

the premise of it was fun, kinda like A Day, The Call and as some say Kairos (though I haven't seen that one), but that's the problem, the last 2 aired very very recently that it's not just similarities but plain old copy+paste

they started off too strong, for 4 eps, every time they changed the past the future changed, and with that they got new threats, but after 4 times one is like stop with the twists, so now from ep5 till 6 it became a boring political talk blah blah, it was so boring I didn't care anymore and their last twist is one of those "no one will see it coming" thing that's way too obvious......


I LOVED Lee Joo Young and the fact that she was a 1st main lead without her needing to be involved in a love line with the ML, but then it's so obvious she's taking back seat while the guy does everything cuz in her time line she can't do anything but investigate
and the fact that the 2 mains are never in the same space together kinda makes their team work flat.

the OST is nice and so is the acting but the writing is so empty I didn't even want to skip or fast forward cuz by the next time the plot is interesting it'd probably be the last ep

It gets boring and over complicated.

The first 5 episodes had me hooked and could've completed the show in all honesty, but as the show progresses it becomes less about the time warp and more political than necessary. Though much of the political jargon seemed necessary I believe the story could've progressed well without so much of it.

Once the father is saved the show drops off on how interesting it truly was, especially since the perpetrator was revealed early in the story. It seems as though the remainder of the show will be to convince the ML that the father of the FL is not the murderer of his brother, and when he is convinced they will work together for justice. It has just become boring and longwinded, compared to the earlier episodes.
