Bo ah used to have dark brown hair it was so pretty on her what did they do to her hairrrðŸ˜
she was gorgeous in New World. "Glammed down" is what they did to her. I hope female actors never have to go through that again. Yes it suits the naive, childish and cute FL type but that FL type and supposedly being an adult professional woman with a uni degree is just a pain to watch
I just love the brain experiment strand because these types of cruel experiments really did happen as part of the MK Ultra research. Something that humankind should never forget.
there are 5 male Neanthal survivors in season 1 but we only meet 2 of them as adults. But the 3rd one is known…
I'm a bit confused bc here in MDL they name the new neathal actor as Rottip, but it was my impression that these two neanthal's talked (twice) about Rottip as someone who was currently elsewhere! (am not happy about new Rottip and still hoping Nickhun to return lol)

What's garbage about it? Yours is literally the only negative comment. Everyone else loves this drama.
What is garbage about it is that the leads are impossibly frustrating characters. FL is full of vanity and ML is immoral, hunting down his own countrymen like animals. Not everyone thinks it's a masterpiece. It's Gone With the Wind in Joseon. You haven't been reading the comments. Comments are always divided. It's fine if you think it's a masterpiece but not everyone does. I've written multiple comments and you claim everybody thinks it's a masterpiece, which just shows you haven't really cared to read the comments at all.

Most of the people didn't like it in comments then why is its rating so high? Is it worth watching or not?
the hype movement was crazy after the first episodes. It went down from 8.8. People see it for what it is more clearly now. It's for the 15-17 years old and ml's fandom.
The plot seems very similar to Cruel City (which is a great kdrama). Does anyone agree and does it stay similar? (I only watched a bit of the beginning)
People say Twinkling Watermelon is a Korean Back to the Future. But the writer of Twinkling Watermelon used the time travel theme already in Chicago Typewriter (2017). Of course, Back to the Future is the time travel themed movie that most have watched but saying that k-dramas are merely copying themes introduced in American movies doesn't make sense.
Here's the history of time travel theme to set things right: "Though most would cite H.G. Wells's 1895 novel The Time Machine as the progenitor of the modern time-travel story, the author wrote an even earlier one, "The Chronic Argonauts," in 1888. Sandwiched between Wells's two time-machine stories was the other founding text of the genre: Mark Twain's 1889 satire A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. George Pal's classic 1960 adaptation of The Time Machine was the first time-travel film to win an Oscar (for best visual effects). But despite these successes, time travel remained on the fringes of popular culture.
"The fact that it took so long for a non-adapted time-travel story to become a mainstream hit is a testament to how difficult films like these are to write. Every time-travel tale needs to establish its own internally consistent set of rules, and hardcore genre fans—a notoriously pedantic bunch—will tear apart any story that fails to do so. It wasn't until the early 1980s that filmmakers like James Cameron (The Terminator), and Robert Zemeckis (Back to the Future) discovered an ingenious solution to the near-impossibility of writing a sensical time-travel story: Write a time travel story that's so much fun mainstream audiences won't care about consistency." https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/05/a-brief-history-of-time-travel-in-movies/257638/
Jin Soo Wan has written masterpieces such as Moon Embracing the Sun, Chicago Typewriter (also time travel), and…
Do watch Hollywood crap but quit with these completely idiotic comparisons. Oscars are given to crap, This is MDL if you haven't noticed. I don't think we need your kind here. Comparing Jin Soo Wan to Hollywood writers is such a blasphemy. Total and utter disrespect. I'm blocking you so I don't get my blood pressure rised again.
