Here's a good explanation from another member here which clearly explains (note that this is not from me) -- hope this can answer your questions.

No. He never died and he wasn't lost in the past. This is what happened :

- In the present (2024), Gwiju saved Dahae and Ina at the fire at Ina's school.
- Just before the wall collapsed he time traveled to the past (2011) to the fire at Dahae's school and saved her.
- Because Gwiju disappeared from the present, he is presumed dead and a funeral is held without a body.
- Dahae gives birth to Nuri and for them five years pass (2029).
- In 2029, Nuri summons Gwiju from 2011 just before the explosion at Dahae's school and saves his life.
- Gwiju is reunited with his family in 2029, but he hasn't experienced a five year separation because for him it was one second he was at the fire, the next he was with his family.

He's Dahae's "uncle" not "brother" though. :) She called him "samchon".

Not only Ina knew, the grandmother knew as well after seeing a future scene when the FL crashed the wedding and admitted it, out of her "genuine" love to the ML. I think it was on ep 6.

Trust me, you'll love the direction of the story thereafter. :)

I agree that the ending is a bit rushed (as per my other comments here). It doesn't give enough explanation so many viewers (myself included initially) were confused.

Yes. The ML tried to rekindled his relationship with his daughter (going to the theme park together), it's very heartwarming watching those scenes, and I really cried in some of the scenes (thanks to Park So Yi's amazing acting performance).

That's of course before the drama's climax when the dad had to be gone from his daughter's life for 5 years (2024-2029) until he's being brought back by his son.

Another great explanation!

Yes. For Ina, her dad was really gone for 5 years (between 2024-2029).

And Nuri never saw his dad from birth until he plucks him in 2029.

Good explanation!

It's definitely getting better in the next episodes.

Nuri (the son)'s power is different from Gwiju (his father)'s.

Gwiju's power is to be able to go back to a past timeline.

Nuri's power is not going back to the past, but he can "pluck" (or take out) something from the past and bring it to the present, without the need for him to go back to that past timeline.

Hope the above explains. :)

There is character development for the FL. Actually, not only for the FL but for the rest of the "scammer" family as well.

At the end, you will find the relationship between the members of the two families heartwarming.

Trust me, you wouldn't want the FL to get karma after watching the next episodes. :)

Overall -- the drama is very heartwarming, save for some "stupid" writing direction around ep 10 (i think?) and a felt-rushed and abrupt ending. But I would still say it's one of the best KDramas in 2024.

not for the couple. the husband died.

Well in any case, attorney Cha already knew even before Yuri told her.

Have watched the first two episodes and I'm hooked. Some comments:

- Love how the story is being written, with unique storyline and fast-paced plot which keep us hooked.
- Love the acting of both the main female leads, Jang Nara and Nam Jihyun. Also love Jang Nara's new shorter hair style, it's very refreshing!
- Noted that this is another drama where Jang Nara portrays a character who got cheated by her husband (after My Happy Ending), lol.
- Happy to see Yuna even for a short while (she seems to only have support/guest role in this drama unlike in The Kidnapping Day). Her character (the daughter) seems to be neglected by both her parents (workaholic mom and cheating dad).

Looking forward to the next episodes!

in "My Happy Ending", she was presumed to cheat first and her husband wanted to retaliate....

tbh I feel ep 9 and 10 are a bit draggy but I would still wait for the next episodes anyway. 😉🤭

it was mean. I think he wanted her to be not by his side because he knew it would be dangerous for her.

but he couldn't deny his feelings for her. that is sad but cute at the same time. I love the jihwan character very very much.

There's possibility that prosecutor Jang already told Eunha last time, but it was still off-screen (scene not yet shown, which might be shown as flashback later).

After which, Eunha went back home and when he met Jihwan, she said confidently that "she already found the person whom she buried the container with".

Whatever happens, I wish Uri and Sookyung will not go back together. They should remain siblings for life! Sookyung doesn't deserve Uri, he is too kind to her and she has been very cruel to him.

I really love the scene when all the 4 siblings: Uri, Sookyung, Doori and Ara had their morning run at the park. I love their siblings chemistry, I wish I had siblings like them!

I hope this drama's writernim will go that route -- that the two main leads will not be together at the end.

(I know it's unlikely, but still....)

After seeing him performing in front of the butcher shop, I realised that Do Young is very handsome, lol.
