Binge-Worthy Drama
Just finished Reset(开端), series about one guy and a girl stuck in time loop. They need to stop the bus from exploding. Need to say this is a phenomenal show. The two leads did a really great job. The plot is really solid and unlike other c-dramas it's just 15 ep . Not once did I feel bored while watching this show. Oh yes I forgot to mention that the ed is fking nice and the song played in the last episode ? . Really loved those small anime references .It's a must watch for people who like stories with time loop and sci-fi thriller. This is better than most of the k-dramas and c-dramas.Was this review helpful to you?
"What if... we lived different lives with different relationships in another world?"
"Train" (2020) is a suspenseful thriller mystery drama with sci-fi elements. It is about traveling to another/parallel world to find a murderer, but it's much more than just that. The show tricks your mind to think and solve the puzzle of who the real killer is and who is controlling everything behind the scenes. It delves into the idea of consequences and how one can never escape their fate as it's inevitable.The story and cinematography are exceptionally good. Although there were very few soundtracks in the drama, I must say that the two main soundtracks were very mesmerizing. The phenomenal acting and the chemistry between the two leads will absolutely make you fall in love ? with this drama. The portrayal of various relationships between the characters in the drama is an essential element that adds depth and meaning to the story, making it more relatable and realistic.
However, there are a few cons to this drama. Firstly, the writing of a few characters and their acting could have been better. The acting of the chief, in particular, wasn't the best. Especially in the last few episodes it is very noticeable, but this is just my opinion, and others may not feel the same way. Additionally, even for a 12-episode drama, it could feel slow-paced at times.
Despite the few cons, this drama is very rewarding in the end. Overall, this show definitely deserves an 8/10, and I would highly recommend it to someone who is interested in suspenseful thriller shows with a hint of sci-fi.

A Good Watch, Despite Some Flaws
Ok I finally finished the series and after finishing the series, I have some thoughts to share. The initial episodes, around 1-6, were definitely great. However, things became messy later on due to the excessive number of golden spoons. Despite this, I found the show entertaining and couldn't wait to see what would happen next. The ending was really satisfying and well-done.Overall, I wouldn't say the show was bad - that would be too harsh. The acting by the entire cast was solid and the soundtrack was excellent. The only downside for me was some of the plotlines. Despite this, I would still recommend giving the show a watch. I'd give it a 7/10, which means it was a good watch in my opinion.
