This is the first show I watch about parallel universe and I like it quite a lot with crime, mystery and thriller involved. I really like the story between Seo Do Won and Han Seo Kyung, even though their fate is twisted and their path to find each other is hard, they're still trying their best to be able to live with each other. I even like the killer's twisted background. How everything is connected also will make you have to really focus on the story and especially the last two episodes. Even though I don't quite like the ending, because it can be a new and intersting story, but I guess it will be too much.
Overall I really like it and I would suggest everyone who like crime, thriller, mystery, fantasy to watch it.

Give it a chance
This drama is actually just follow the stereotypical makjang kdrama where there is revenge, drama plotting, big shot villain etc. Beside the typical revenge plot, sometimes the hanging ending makes me curious with the next episode. The acting is good especially the villain.I feel like the execution of this plot can be better but it is understandable for small cable tv channel. The OSTs sometimes feels nostalgic like the typical makjang drama ost and that's quite refreshing in this modern era. I need more romance between the main leads!!
Overall if you are looking for revenge makjang drama you can give it a try.

Overall very angsty but not what I expected
As a melodrama entusiast i don't know why i'm not as engrossed as i initially thought. I thought this drama would be my cup of tea but actually not.The overall plot is really good since the main plot is basically a true story with lots of added drama. The drama starting really good especially in their teenage days i enjoyed it a lot, full of laughter, bickering and fluffiness. But when they grew up everyone seems to be different or growing up personality wise except Chae Kyung who saw the world with flowers and rainbow i guess. Her personality is just too naive for this kind of melo and angsty historical drama. Idk if her personality is based on the actual Queen Dan Kyung or not, but Chae Kyung's naivety annoyed me so much. She just seems so out of place with how politics, power struggle, revenge and deception works in the palace. For someone that has ties and relationship with the royal family she is just too naive with her ideal principal.
Except Chae Kyung personality and probably her father's too loyal personality, the others are fine and they fit perfectly with all those dramas going on. The OSTs are also really good. So overall i give this drama a 7.5 and i'm not going to rewatch it.

I can say it is darker than the first two Voice series
What I really like about this 3rd series is the struggle of Do Timjangnim with his illness and how he got his character development. It makes me teared up few times and how he always fighting the demon within him.The plot is darker and it still have a lot of cases and some new cases lead to the main plot. The 3rd season also feels more emotional for me but it was still thrilling with some action. I also like the realistic ending.
The acting is great as always and I like how Lee Jin Wook can deliver this raw and rough character of Do Kang Woo.
Overall this is probably my favorite Voice series!!

You think you've figured it out, but no?
It was a wild ride honestly. We go on full ride from Dong Baek's perspective to figure out the real culprit. The case goes from a psychotic killer then leads to bigger cases. It was like a puzzle pieces that we need to put together, it makes me confused but the suspense was quite intense.Just when I thought I've figured out the real culprit the story just keep makes me doubting my believe. Since it dwelled with memory it makes me even doubting the ML and the memory shown in the drama. It keeps you wanting to know more about the story, the culprit and the truth behind.
Overall i'm satisfied with this drama even tho I hope there's just little romance hint between the ML and FL but it's not happening lmao. It was still great anyway, I suggest you to give this drama a chance.

Cliche cinderella story
Despite what people said this drama will always be one of the "Must Watch" Kdrama at least once in a life time. It's a classic.I myself was rewatching this 4 times when i was still in a high school because the story is just that cliche overly cute, cheesy cinderella story that probably most teenagers love to watch. But now that i remember it i wont rewatch this drama again lmao but let it be just that classic in kdrama history.
The drama is all about poor girl who accidentally got into an elite high school with all bullying and social status conflicts. It was just a passing story when i watched the first time because i just love to watch the "cute" love story and all those rich high school students life style. But now it sounds so disturbing and unpleasant to watch. So just watch this drama if you want fluffly, cliche romance story but ignore the main conflict altogether because it really has all the cliche formulas.
One thing that i still really like about this drama is the OST. Almost paradise, Stand by me, Because i'm stupid are some of the most popular OST until this day, it is trully iconic. I still love to listen to the OST.

Beautiful but can be little bit gloomy
This drama will be enjoyable for those who likes slow paced, calm, fluffy but little bit too gloomy and relatable conflict kind of story. I really enjoyed it myself.Story: I love how this drama is about dreams, love and people who talk through musics. Both main characters are an introverts with their awkward first meeting, it was so cute and fresh. It is very rare to see main characters that are both introverts and not some talkative, reckless FL with cool, tsundere ML. This drama is free of some kdrama cliches like no annoying ex-gf/bf that suddenly appeared, no pitiful 2nd male lead who wants to snatched away the FL, no cinderella story.
In this drama we can see all four characters have their own struggle whether it's in career/music, life and love story. The characters also slowly grow along with progress of the story. I like Joon Young and Song Ah's awkward and cute relationship. Even though sometimes the conflicts can be little bit gloomy to watch but for me the story is very relatable. They conclude this drama with satisfying ending with beautiful classical music performance.
Acting: Park Eun Bin and Kim Min Jae's acting and passion to learn piano and violin are truly amazing. They deliver enough amount of introverted energy but sometimes a brave and determined character. Also props to other actor and actress.
Music: One of the BEST thing in this drama is of course the OST. Amazing line up and beautiful songs also classical musics that I really enjoyed while watching.
I consider to rewatch this drama just to rewatch JoonSung couple's fluffiness and the classical music performance.

Very light school romcom drama
Early episode it started okay and then it went downhill so fast. The plot is messy, like the writer wants to throw every cliche romcom plot here, with popular cold ML and naive dumb but super positive and enthusiastic FL, her bestfriends, girls fawning over ML but he only has eyes for the FL, the unreasonable villain etcI don't even understand why they had to change Zhou Yi Feng's name and decided to adopt her, they can just raise her normally instead of making both ML and FL seems like a sibling and then suddenly they're dating, what? I can't even fathom how no one, like their school mates, not even surprised and accept the Su siblings suddenly became lover. It doesn't makes sense because people always thought they are siblings. Then the villain suddenly just there and start scheming like wtf, i get she was jealous but childhood jealousy until she grown up is just doesn't makes sense.
Overall i got bored easily while watching this.
