Kairos-When the past and future collide,The present changes-Entertaining Roller coaster ride

Kairos is a Greek word meaning “Right Time” an “opportune moment”, and the plot of the drama exactly revolves around this moment,which is exactly for one minute at 10.33 pm connecting two people one month apart in time over a phone call,Meet Kim Seo Jin and Han Ae Ri suffering tragic events in their time,SeoJin in the future and Aeri in past this one minute phone call every day allows them to interact and later co-ordinate and work together to change their misfortunes,while doing this they discover the deeper problems in their life which go beyond the tragedy that have stuck them.

A drama involving non linear timeline can be tricky as viewers are smart enough to pick up the loopholes,unanswered questions and lousy writing,but kairos did a overall good job to surpass many of these traps and curses.many points while watching this drama one will encounter such questions and loose ends, but they are mostly answered and closed later on..Patience is the KEY here.

The story is strong and well done, though not completely unique, The cinematography ,sound track are captivating and will keep you hooked.(A special mention to “Can you Hear me” - Kang Seung Yoon Heartening track)The editing is good ,but could be confusing sometimes.Also some scenes might require repeat viewings to actually understand better as to whats going on.

The other strongest point of the drama is the acting and the characters. One is able to feel the pain of the main leads and despise some characters.Also all the main and secondary leads of the drama show character development,especially KSJ, played wonderfully by Shin Sung Rok,who shows his pain,anger,disgust,love and sadness amazingly all by his small movements in facial expressions .Lee Se Young shows her range and maturity in the role,with her small frame and beautiful face she conveys most intricate emotions. Ahn Bo Hyun , Nam Gyu Ri,Kang Seung Yoon all did well in their roles.The small kid Dabin was really cute and acted well.

The drawbacks I think was some scenes involving Han Aeri’s mother could have been avoided her motivations became a bit illogical and messy, I would have preferred more interaction between the leads instead of that.Also the police seems to be mostly clueless most of the time ,I think that a K drama trope, but that could be avoided.
Kairos is undoubtedly one of the best dramas of 2020.It is a silent killer I am sure it will gain more following as time goes on a more people discover it. Definitively a must watch!
