I'm always fascinated by time travel in a scientific way and as a concept used in many dramas. I was talking to someone on how well the time travel is done on this drama and how the timelines changes. The time travel mechanics in this drama, particularly those involving Gwi-Joo, are central to the plot's complexity and one of the best storyline of the drama. Gwi-Joo has the ability to travel through time, but primarily to moments of happiness or significant emotional impact. This ability is triggered under specific emotional or situational conditions, making it both a gift and a curse for him and his family. The timeline changes significantly when Gwi-Joo from the future interacts with present characters, especially Do Da-Hae. This dynamic is portrayed through scenes where future Gwi-Joo communicates with present Da-Hae while the present Gwi-Joo remains unaware of these interactions. These interactions introduce changes to the timeline, leading to a complex narrative where actions in the past or present can influence future outcomes. This was like the best thing for me on the show. For instance, future Gwi-Joo instructs Da-Hae to warn his present self about certain dangers, affecting the present timeline and altering the characters' fates. This introduces a layer of unpredictability and tension, as characters must navigate the implications of these time-travel interactions.
So, importantly, the show handles time travel with a focus on emotional and narrative consequences rather than strict scientific logic, which can sometimes lead to confusion about the timeline's consistency. The key is understanding that Gwi-Joo's travels are driven by emotional connections and significant events, which tie the past, present, and future together in a way that reflects the characters' personal growth and relationships.
This is for those who are having trouble understanding the timeline changes on the drama.
Shin Hye as a cruel FL is going to be awesome. Also nice to see the Kim JAE get a main role. I think the last time I saw him in a main role is on that family drama. I've no clue on the director so, much to look forward to
You guys who didn't watch this show, it's time you watch it and those of YOU GUYS who gave this show some stupidly low rating because of the cliffhanger, it's time you correct that. This show deserves much more rating than 8.5
