Best drama of 2023.
A truly gripping drama, unlike any I’ve watched before.
*Spoilers ahead!*
I found the two fathers, Jang Joo Won (played by Ryu Seung Ryong) and Lee Jae Man (played by Kim Sung Kyun) stories particularity touching. And their characters were so well played by the actors!
For example how Joo Won is portrayed as ridiculously strong and self healing, but would break down and burst into tears around his partner. So watching him walk around alone and sob after she passed was heart breaking to watch.
Also the look on Jae Man’s face when he saw how his son Kang Hoon was laying on the floor.
Each episode felt like a movie, the scenery and music that accompanied the past and present made all the difference.
I do wish each episode was longer than 40/45mins or there were more episodes, as I found too much time was used on some characters like the school custodian and Ki Soo.
I know this is based on a web toon, but I would’ve loved to see a reunion between Joo Won and Doo Shik. And just more of what happened after the final battle.
But overall, a must watch! And the ending suggests another season! I’m so interested to see what happens with the kid who could stop time!
