It had potential
The biggest problem with this series is the runtime. With this kind of plot, you can't just condense it down to 10-minute-long episodes and expect to get anything of substance done.
Which is why they kind of don't. Ji Han really just stumbles around with no real goal, falls in love, & gets a second chance after catching our fugitive. I didn't believe the romance. The worlds and their connection were never really explained; they are working on the assumption that the watcher has a baseline amount of knowledge.
Why are we spending actual time on schoolwork? Why are there two possible love interests? Most full-length series are too short to involve multiple love interests! Why is there no attempt to "fix" the error? Doesn't the original ledger that Ji Han came with at the end still exist? Is that not going to be a problem? Where is Ji Han getting his clothes from? That last one isn't really important, but it bothers me not knowing.
The acting was at least alright. Kan Hyeon Bae (Ji Han) did a really good job for his first role.
The chemistry really wasn't present outside the NC scene; it was alright then, but the kisses were good & VERY audible.
Not a total waste of time, but it was really disappointing because the plot had potential and the acting wasn't terrible.
