I usually wait for everything to be released and binge it in 2 days, BUT I WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS DRAMA THAT I MADE THE BIG MISTAKE OF WATCHING THE FIRST 2 EPISODES. And, of course, I LOVED IT. I was looking for a light and funny rom-com. Ugh, it's going to be torture waiting all week for the new episodes
I'm not sure if I liked it or not. The beginning is weird, and the information is just thrown out there. And then, out of nowhere, the lady just lets a complete stranger into her house. The son, who's depressed because his wife died after his mom kept nagging him a lot, suddenly decides he likes this complete stranger and goes back in time to kill himself to save her, leaving his daughter (who he never really paid attention to or knew well because he was too selfish, stuck on his dead wife who was cheating on him) alone again.
Other than that, I liked the set design, it's a visually beautiful show to watch. I also enjoyed the soundtrack. As for the story, I liked Da Hae's uncle with I Na more. I wish they had more screen time, too, especially Da Hae's uncle and Bok Dong Hee as a couple. And I loved Bok Dong Hee and Grace together...they were so much fun!
I haven't finished it yet but I wanted to praise the soundtrack. The instrumentals that play at important moments make it seem like an old film when orchestras played the tracks. Without a doubt, it added an extra touch.
Hi, MariaEduarda. The impression you have, many have had. First of all, there is ep 40.5, showing the married…
And to be honest, the ending was meaningless. For the common consumer (I watched it on Netflix) there is no talk about the extra episode so the ending was empty... If I didn't come here to comment I wouldn't know about this extra. I think it tarnished the series a little. But overall it was an amazing series. I hope fans don't keep meddling with the scripts. As I said here in another comment, if someone expects happy endings, I'm afraid that period Chinese series are not something they should consume.

I have no problem with sad endings. I really expected the sad ending as it is typical for this style of series. I was speechless because I liked it so much hahah.
And I didn't like that they changed the ending to please the audience. I think that's wrong. But I understand that because of all the protagonist's suffering, people expected her to have a happy ending.
Well, I saw some people complaining about ''sad endings''. I don't like it either. But part of the Chinese period series with this theme is the sad ending. If you take that away it loses its meaning. Let's not ruin the Chinese series as they ruined the Korean ones. The public doesn't have to choose the end of anything. The ending is chosen by the director, the screenwriter and whoever wrote the work. Changing the ending because ''we want happy endings'' is destroying the work of those who created it. If you want and expect happy endings I suggest avoiding this type of series as it is clearly not for you.
In fact, part of what I personally like about these Chinese dramas is the possibility of having a happy ending or not, you never know. I've watched others in this style that have a happy ending and that made sense to the story, just as I've watched series with sad endings that ALSO made sense.
I hope you guys understand what I'm saying, and that I'm not saying this to offend anyone.
The beginning was fun, but now I'm on episode 11 and it's hard to watch. I kind of already know who the culprits…
and omg there is already a scene from the past where the two appear when they were children. But he LOOKS and IS much older than her so how can the children that make them two young be so close in age. Anyway
I HATE this plot where they already knew each other or crossed paths as children. It's not possible that they're going to put this in EVERY series this year. Unbearable. Like, there's always been this plot but this year it's too much. There is a lack of creativity in Korean series.
The beginning was fun, but now I'm on episode 11 and it's hard to watch. I kind of already know who the culprits are and the story is a bit predictable. And besides everything, it's past time for him to discover that she's the lady. It became boring to watch.
I'm liking the story of the secondary couple more than the main one. Despite the great work of Uhm Tae Go and Han Sun Hwa and the insane chemistry they have, I HATE stories about childhood friends, when this plot appears I find it a little repetitive and tiring and I even roll my eyes haha. In this week's eps I skipped almost everything and practically only saw about the second couple.
btw I got to the part where the romance developed and they started dating and now I have the impression that the plot is just going to be problems in the company and the 2 villains are plotting, I'm reluctant to continue watching
