also she seems to have some personal agenda or revenge as well, the way she pleaded to him to make him pay, looks…
Yeah, it's that. The red lady have a revenge to take or something like that. She's really to hatefull and give bad advice to the main character. I'm sure she's involved into this.
Ep1 is boring, especially first 40 odd minutes it took me one day to complete it, Then from the Mother + son scenes…
Ep1 boring... lol... sure, I know I shouldn't read your comments about episode 1 of any drama now. Sorry, I don't wan't to annoy you. But it's beyond my mind to read this with a so fast paced episode, where no one second is lost and all scenes move the plot forward! But I guess, it's what subjectivity is, and I've read worst comments about some even better episode 1 from other dramas. So you maybe have some reasons I don't know to say this...
With such a mess of a plot? There is nothing there that makes sense starting with the time travel rules which…
It's stalling a lot, but what move forward is more the characters. The writer focus on that. Characters change their mind about a lot of thing. The time travel thing is mostly a background for something else, psychology, philosophy, thematics. And the writer didn't dig that much about the Sci-Fi concept. So we get something evasive about that, the lack of explanations is hidden in some confusing poetry. That's happens a lot in kdramas.
So it's just more confusing now ? ^^ That's good, it will keep the watchers hooked until the end. I really hope…
I'm not hooked because it's confusing. (I don't like that) Just, it's better about pace, action and "wow" moments. ;-) In some areas, I guess now the ending will disapoint. No explanation for the time travel concept holes for example. I prepare myself about that, so I will not be too much disapointed.
No. The protagonist, Sae Ha is not that little boy. That little boy, Janitor's adopted son is the murderer kim…
The problem here is the writer made it "invisible" as a revelation. In episode 8, we see two scenes very close: the boy loose a eye, and after we see the man with one eye. It's flashy, and we understand he's the same boy. It was made well for this. But the revelation in episode 7 is just confusing, not a revelation by the way, just bring confusion in a episode not easy to watch. Need a rewatch and take notes.

My guess is the writer will focus about some revelation about the characters or things like that. I don't expect she explain the time concept here. And mostly, even she wanted too, It's almost impossible.
this show is really underrated. some people don't enjoy sci-fi I guess.
Sadly, it's the point, it's not good Sci-Fi. Too much holes in the time travel concept. I don't have time to make the whole list here, but wow! Except that, the screenwriter is still good for points about the investigation logic. Too bad she made the drama boring in episode 1-5. Even with a lot of Sci-fi inconsistencies, the drama is still better in episode 6-8.
Structured makjang. I'm stuck in the middle, and loose desire to watch.
Not a really bad drama, but many repetitives scenes, dialogs where I don't see how it makes the story move forward. First episode was half/half. First half exposition on the nose, and second half quite good with a nice cliffhanger. Else, we have common tropes of cheabols families in kdrama.
Acting is ok, with experimentated actors like Joo Sang Wook and So Yi Hyun, but not so good with a few secondary characters. Or it's just the characters are writed a bit caricatural.
I found one scene that put me a tear in the eye. It was about the SFL when she saves the little girl.
Just watched 3 first episodes. Fast paced and very fun once you get the kind of comedy it is. I feel it's useless to look for something serious, I guess the whole drama could be like that. Re-use of some tropes. I couldn't say trope subversion, but rather derision, as the drama the grandpa watch on TV have the same situations than the ML. I like a lot the SFL. For once, it looks like there isn't love triangle, but rather friendships, and each one try to achieve their love story.
While waiting for the next episode, I’m suddenly in a mood to watch other time traveling dramas. Should I start…
Go for that!!! You have two kind of dramas about this: - Old school, not really time travel story. Just a lead change time at the start of the drama, then come back at the end. I guess, it's not what you are aiming. You can still watch Rooftop prince, Moon lover, or maybe Dr Jin, they are still good dramas. - Real time travel story. Writer Song Jae Jung unlocked this when it was the fashion of the first category I listed. Queen In Hyun man and Nine Time Travel. Of course, watch that. Nine time travel is a bit slow on start (3 or 4 first episodes), then it's one of the best time travel story, without inconsistencies. - Other kdramas, go for 365 repeat the year, crazy fast pace. Go for Sisyphus (but prepare your brain!), which is for now a bit more consistent than Grid (with informations I get from episode 7 and are nebulous with many potential plot-hole). I can't say about "Alice", I didnt watch it yet, but will do one day. - Very boring time travel: the taiwan drama "someday or one day", just here, you sleep before the end of the episode. The King Eternal monarch don't focus exactly on time travel (even it's part of the soup), could be disapointing about a huge number of elements. Still, if you are ready to that, just enjoy the good lines of the writer and her ability to show esthetic and cheesy situations.

So they will update this later if the character is important. It's live.
At least, there is an explanation for this point.
