Ok, how exactly did it specifically affect their first encounter at the bookstore? Im curious how Eun Gyeol's time traveling has anything to do with Yi Chan and Choeng Ha's first encounter in the bookstore, where Yi Chan saved Choeng Ha from a couple of books that were about to fall on her? Eun Gyeol may have time-traveled long before that encounter happened, but he had nothing to do with that specific encounter. The past doesn't change on its own due to time travel; it requires effort or actions to be altered. But both Yi Chan and Choeng Ha went to that bookstore on their own, not because of anything Eun Gyeol did, which means they did the same in the original timeline.As far as I remember, Yi Chan went to that bookstore because he was looking for a comic or something, and Choeng Ha was also a regular visitor there. That's why they met that day. It wasn't because of Eun Gyeol or his time travel. I wonder if I missed something.

Finally completed watching it. It was very interesting in the beginning but got a little boring later on. Although it lost my interest, it wasn't as bad as some reviews and comments suggest. I saw a lot of comments about the love triangle in this drama being the worst love triangle ever. For me, it was not the worst but the best. In other dramas, we often end up with a strong second lead syndrome or feeling bad for the second lead because they get a heartbreak they don't deserve. But in this one, I was so happy whenever he got hurt because he was so annoying. This is probably the only drama where I was genuinely happy about a second lead getting rejected over and over. So, for me, this love triangle is the best, rather than having another nice second lead who gets rejected by the female lead despite doing everything for her.

This is a good theory, but during the time when Yi Chan and Eun Gyeol performed at the concert with her fiancé, she said herself, 'I really hate bands.' I thought the reason she said that was because of her first love who was in a band. I assumed he must've done something wrong, which is why she hates bands. If that were the case, Dong Jin couldn't be her first love because she didn't meet Dong Jin in the altered past.
And also, Se Gyeong moved to the USA as soon as they formed a band, so even in the original timeline, I don't think it could be anyone from Yi Chan's band, let alone Dong Jin

Although Yi Chan remembers their first encounter at the sign language center, I believe Cheong Ha knew him long before that, and their initial meeting actually took place in the bookstore, just like it did in the altered past. This aspect can't change merely because of the alterations caused by Eun Yu and Eun Gyeol's time travel. It occurred prior to any of their time-traveling adventures, so I think Yi Chan simply doesn't recall their meeting during their high school days, which is why he believes their first encounter happened at the sign language center.

Oh, I totally forgot about Ha Eun Gyeol's brother. After seeing what Se Gyeong said to Eun Yu about her pretending to be deaf, I also think they like the same person. However, things could change if they alter the past.

Regarding what you said about Oh Eun Yu's existence, I still can't agree with you because, even though it's the same universe and the same timeline, I believe her being in the past at the moment has nothing to do with her current existence. As I explained, she still exists because the past hasn't changed yet. But if she manages to change it, Eun Yu could disappear later on. For now, she exists because the past remains the same. If she can't really do anything, the shop owner would've told her so. When she shared her plan with him during the phone call, he himself said she's smart for thinking of preventing her own existence like that, which means there's a possibility of achieving it by changing the past. So, while it may seem theoretically improbable, in the context of the drama, I believe she still exists because she hasn't changed the past yet. If she manages to change the past as she intends, she will disappear later.

First, let's clarify that Ha Yi Chan and Ha Eun Gyeol are not interested in the same girl. Yi Chan has feelings for Se Gyeong, a girl he met before she moved to the US. On the other hand, Eun Gyeol has a crush on Oh Eun Yu, who happens to be the daughter of Se Gyeong from the future. The first time Eun Gyeol saw the real Se Gyeong in front of the school, he didn't feel anything for her. His feelings developed later, specifically during their visit to the amusement park. However, it wasn't Se Gyeong; it was Oh Eun Yu pretending to be her. For me, it would have been quite weird if Eun Gyeol had feelings for the real Se Gyeong, especially considering that she's the same age as his dad, even though she's younger in 1995.
Secondly, the one currently in Korea isn't Se Gyeong; she's still living in the USA. It's Oh Eun Yu who left the US and came to Korea. They look remarkably alike, which is why everyone assumed she was Se Gyeong. You might remember that she went to great lengths to hide her face at school in episode 8. That's because the real Se Gyeong continues to reside in the USA, and having her present in the school in Korea could add more complexity to the situation. There's no mystical body-swapping happening – Oh Eun Yu simply time-traveled back to 1995 in her own body, similar to what Ha Eun Gyeol did. So, even if she's attempting to change her mom's life by pretending to be her, it won't work because her mom, Se Gyeong, is still living in the US, following her own life path as she should. At least, that's how I see it. What you mentioned makes sense if Oh Eun Yu's soul enters Se Gyeong's body, and it's still Se Gyeong's body, and only their souls were swapped. I don't think that's what happened. I think they are two separate people, one lives in US and the other time traveled to Korea in 1995.
Even if Oh Eun Yu doesn't end up being born as she originally planned by altering the past, she would still exist in the future and could continue to time travel to 1995. That's because, in the context of this drama, the past, present, and future seem to operate in a cyclical manner. In the past that has already transpired, Se Gyeong and her fiancé married each other and had Oh Eun Yu. Unless Eun Yu manages to entirely change things in 1995, she would still exist in the future and have the ability to travel back in time. If she succeeds in altering the past as she intends, she might potentially vanish later on, but for the moment, she exists, and the future has not changed. It's worth noting that we all have different perspectives, especially in time-traveling dramas. Your theoretical idea might be more accurate, but it could complicate the entire time-travel plot in the context of the drama.

I'm so relieved that Choi Se Gyeong turned out to be Oh Eun Yu from the future. Otherwise, it would have been pretty weird and creepy by now (Because Eun Gyeol has a crush on her now).
I'm just not sure if my theory is spot on about this. But even if she's pretending to be her mom and trying to find her first love, it wouldn't alter the future much because the real Se Gyeong is living her life in the U.S., and her fiancé is planning to join her there. So, they'll eventually get married and have Oh Eun Yu as their daughter. That part seems pretty set unless the real Se Gyeong comes back to Korea. I'm curious to know what makes Oh Eun Yu believe that what she's doing can change the future.

I can't believe some people are already saying it's boring and rating it low. Come on, it's only been four episodes, and we shouldn't be judging and comparing it to "Strong Woman Do Bong Soon already. These are two different dramas, and it's not fair to put them side by side. Personally, I loved it. It was a lot of fun to watch. I'm relieved that they didn't drag out the "looking for the family" plot, or I'd be frustrated watching them miss each other so many times. I'm enjoying everything about this series so far and can't wait for the next episode. The cameo of Hyung Sik and Park Bo Young makes it even better. The only thing I can't quite get used to in this series is the villain. Byeon Woo Seok plays the villain, and I know I should hate his character, but I just can't bring myself to hate him because it's him.

I didnt watch ep 8 yet. Can someone spoil me if Ha YI Chan gone deaf after what happened in episode 7 as showed in the preview or were we just misled as usual?

I've noticed that people often label simple and romantic dramas as "boring" these days. It's a bit sad how our society has become so complex that we can't enjoy the simple pleasures anymore. I've been watching kdramas for over a decade, and I remember how much people used to love these kinds of dramas with happy endings. It's disappointing to see that now, people seem to have so many conditions for enjoying a drama.

As for me, I loved this drama. It's like some singers don't explain the meanings of their songs, allowing listeners to interpret them as they like. This drama had many moments without explicit explanations, and I enjoyed that aspect. I don't believe everything has to be realistic and spelled out for us to enjoy it. We can interpret things in our own way and find joy in the fantasy. Those elements didn't bother me at all. From the plot to the acting, it was excellent. I absolutely loved the perfect ending and felt butterflies throughout the drama. I couldn't ask for more, and I'm truly satisfied with every aspect of it. I'm really going to miss it every week for a while.

Im not gonna bother watching it if it doesn't have the original cast and continue the original plot.

I stumbled upon an FMV of this today, and it brought back all the tears. Despite what others might say about it being realistic, I'll never grasp why they couldn't make it work. They were such a perfect match. Their breakup feels utterly unnecessary to me. I get it when leads in dramas meet tragic ends; it's sad but understandable, and I can eventually accept it. But this one? I don't think I'll ever accept or understand it in this lifetime.I'll forever hold a grudge against the writers and whoever was behind the creation of this drama.

Oh thank you so much.. This really gave me a much needed closure to the story. It'll take some time for me to move on from them as i really enjoyed every bit of it. I really forgot about the star thing.

Hey there, fellow drama enthusiasts! If any of you happen to have some clear answers to the burning questions I dropped in my above comment, I'd be over the moon if you could share your insights. It's all about helping me move on from this drama 😅

I initially steered clear of fantasy and wuxia Chinese dramas because, let's be real, most of them tend to wrap up with anything but a happy ending. Tragedy or open-endedness seems to be the norm, and that's just not my jam. My very first foray into the wuxia drama was "Holy Pearl," and unsurprisingly, it too left me hanging with an open ending, just like all the others I'd seen.

But then, something about "Love You Seven Times" caught my eye – that jaw-dropping cinematography. I couldn't resist, and once I started watching, I was hooked on the storyline. I absolutely adored how the characters kept finding each other across lifetimes, falling in love over and over again. And since they were immortal beings, I thought, "Hey, there's no way this one's going to end tragically, right?" Wrong.

Don't get me wrong; it was a happy ending, but it left me with more questions than answers. I mean, seriously, we only got to see their reunion in the mortal world! What about the heaven realm? Did she travel back into the past to be with him because hes no longer exist in the present? And what happens when they wrap up their mortal lives? Do they head back to the heaven realm, or are they confined to that one lifetime in the mortal world?

I'll be honest; this ending has me in a bit of a drama hangover. It's like we didn't get that satisfying closure I was hoping for. It's made me hesitant to dive into another wuxia drama, even though the storyline here was absolutely amazing. So, if I were to rate it, I'd give it an 8.5, despite the ending. But man, what could have been with a more conclusive finale!

Me too. That was one of the reasons i kept watching it

Never thought i'd get second lead syndrome in this series 😭

Was there a mystery in king the land? I don't remember seeing any mystery in that. It was all romance + comedy. It got so boring later on.

I can't understand why some people hate it. Personally, I think it's one of the best dramas I've seen this year. The storyline, the acting, and that ending – they were all spot-on. Plus, it's way less stressful to watch compared to many other dramas out there. You won't feel all tense and anxious while watching it. I'm pretty sure there are tons of fans who appreciate it too.Those who love the drama tend to appreciate it once and leave a rating, while those who dislike it just keep on spreading their negativity endlessly. That's why it feels like there's an overwhelming amount of hate for it.

Most of the hate seems to center around Min Hyun's acting. People are quick to label him a bad actor, but in my book, he did a solid job portraying his character. His role was supposed to be somewhat awkward and suffering from social anxiety. Even though his character evolved, you can't just shake off traits like that overnight. So yeah, he came across as a bit introverted and awkward , but that's what his character demanded. People are judging him without even getting his character.

Let's not forget this was his first leading role, so naturally, he might not seem as polished as the seasoned actors. But he held his own and did a great job. Another gripe is that some folks call it slow-paced because instead of rushing the ending, this drama wrapped things up with a lot of detail, giving closure to every character. To me, that's a huge plus. I'd rather have a satisfying ending than a ton of unanswered questions after a series ends.

All in all, I absolutely loved it, and I'll definitely be binge-watching it again and again. My advice? Don't let those unfounded "hate" reviews sway you. Be your own judge and give this drama a shot.

Absolutely, it's true that society often seems fixated on people's obsessions and can sometimes overlook the real essence of things. Definitions seem to have taken a back seat, and people jump to conclusions without considering the emotions conveyed by characters. Thanks alot for pointing that out!
