Initially, the plot was okay. It is not that great actually. Because if we are talking about reincarnation Kdrama, then we shouldn't forget "Chicago Typewriter". From storytelling to casting, from OST to dialogues everything was perfect. And, if you have watched that level of "Reincarnation" story. This plot is not that great.

The most annoying part is "Uninteresting twists". Well, I am not comparing these two dramas, I know that story is different and even there would be a possibility of making this drama awesome like "Chicago Typewriter".
I think they did a lot of suspense and added an unbearable amount of darkness in the "Grey" character of
Chun Jong Bum. At one scene he seems to behave okay and in the other, he becomes "psycho". I don't know about you guys but definitely he is not a murderer kind of person, I can see that from the start. So why the director and screen-writer force to put suspense in his behavior.

According to the acting point of you, I really liked Jang Ki Yong acting as the two characters. Also the other casts.

And the biggest problem with the show is the ending. Yes. If you were watching this show from the start. Then you know that the rating of this drama decreases as the plot proceeds. Every episode making me a little less interested in the next ones.

The ending was so much fast. The problem is I didn't see the sudden shift of Jung Sa Bin's heart towards Chun Jong Bum.

For me, the drama is okay for like 10-12 episodes, but then things start getting messy. There are so many uninteresting twists. Like the bipolar nature of Chun Jong Bum's mom, she acted well. But why she is acting this way? And then we got the answer that her husband is not Jong Bum's actual Dad, as he has the DNA of some top 1% guy. And at last, we saw that her husband changes the sperm with some random guy. I mean what they are implementing by that. Why? Do such details matter? I am asking.

As a matter of other main leads. They played their part okay. But the main problem, as I said is the storyline.

If this is your first "Reincarnation" Kdrama. Don't watch it. Instead, watch "Chicago Typewriter".
