A complete waste of time
The beginning of this drama was good, stories that involve contract marriage always become my favorites and although they involve several clichés, most of the time, I have a lot of fun watching, but unfortunately that wasn´t the case with Love in Time. The story had a good start, I think the childhood plot was well used and I thought it was cute that the main lead was in love with the female lead since he was a child, however one of the big problems of this drama, for me, was the female lead.
The development of the female lead during this story was practically zero, I already saw this actress in Goodbye My Princess, and even though she has a very small role in this other drama, she managed to have better scenes and stood out much more in this small role than being the main one of this drama, that is, the big problem was not her performance, but the way her character was written.
She was extremely boring and in the final episodes she managed to get even worse, I couldn't even be happy with her success, because the way she was taking actions throughout history, made me angry with her.
About the male lead: In the beginning I liked his personality a lot, however the way he was too possessive, in some situations, irritated me a little, but until almost the end of the story it didn't irritate me much, the problem was us final episodes, where he makes very annoying and possessive decisions regarding female lead.
The characters in this story were also very forgettable, I didn't like the second male lead at all, and the secondary couple was cute, but I wasn't really interested in their story.
Another negative point, which in my view, hurt the story, was the number of episodes. I think 16 episodes were the ideal to tell the story, even because episode 16 was more or less the story was good, but after 16 episodes the script became more and more boring and the situations only served to fill time, as they often didn't add anything to the story.
In the end it was a drama that I had to skip several parts to finish and I certainly wasted my time watching, because it was much better to have watched something else.
