by pushing eye-candy actors/actresses rather than developing a half-way intelligent plot and narrative structure. It's pitting the folks looking for swoon worthy faces to see for an hour on tv against people that are looking for an engaging story. Bad combo.

tbh, I haven't seen such vitriolic discussion before. tbh, I forgot about this show a day after I dropped it. dunno why so many people are defending and attacking it. Just let it die like all the other mediocre dramas over the years...

I've fallen asleep 3 times in the first ep. finally made it through and ep 2 is hardly better...

I agree. It's very *okay*, atm.

Aside from the FL supernatural age switching, this is a generic run of the mill murder/serial-killer plotline with a nonsensical prosecutor and nonsensical policing. And then the drug ring is thrown in as well. And the older intern/contract group of workers. And a conflict between them and former-assistant(?) to the ML(?). They have a lot of stuff in the mix.

I'm torn, it's fun so far, but there's still another 12 episodes to go. This feels like a mess atm. I'm optimist that once some key characters get to know the FL age-switch, it'll get even more fun.

that last scene from today, ep. 3, was so frustrating! She has given the ML no reason for him to doubt her ability as an aide. It felt so discriminatory and offensive.

They do a good job in an earlier scene when the older workers are introducing themselves to the new guy by explicitly mentioning that all of them have impressive resumes and accomplishments.

I agree. There wasn't much conflict, aside from miscommunication between the leads, that drove the plot. I didn't feel particularly engaged with the grandmother's death. The relationship reveal to the family was interesting, but after that, not much happens.

I am thoroughly enjoying Kang Byul's portrayal of the Drama Queen Skank, haha. The writing and acting of the character has been super entertaining. I like how she is the primary antagonist, but she doesn't have wealth, connections, and blackmail to get her way. Rather, she is an expert at emotional manipulation and lying.

It did seem a bit more than morning sickness... I wonder if there's going to be some sort of complication. Judging from the imaging at the obgyn, the baby looks to be in the early second trimester of development. I'm not an expert, so if somebody has a better guess, please correct me.

The miscarriage risk significantly drops after this point, but it's never zero.

Susan, I'm just a mid thirty year old that finds high school stuff boring. I'm pretty sure most people age out of that sort of drama! This one was a bit strange. I like the adult stuff, thought the early timeshift segments would come back to support the more adult material, but that never happened. They just kept going back to HS level teenage drama via timeshifts and never doing much with the adult aspects. <3

I appreciate your review! I share many of the same opinions. Your final thoughts were well put. Mid-drama, formulaic, and falls off mid-way after an intriguing premise. The time flashback after eps 8, 9(?) territory bored me to no end.

This one was another good premise with poor ending/delivery. Maybe I too have watched too many kdramas. Idk. avg 7/10 rating imo. I guess I was teased with an adult themed show with the beginning, but it kept pulling to a young audience theme with the flashbacks and lack of adult character progression.

I largely agree and feel that we are in the minority with this opinion.

the scammer family vs weakened super hero family was interesting. The outsider helping the family get their powers back was interesting. But, that wraps up around ep 7 leaving five episodes of extremely mediocre romance and a will he won't he die in a fire question mark. It was boring and a real let down for the potential.

I can't agree more about the ML character. The guy is a loser. mopey, cant communicate, and has a list of psych issues a km long. Women don't find that attractive. I like romance, but not when it gets shoehorned into the story line like this. What a disappointment.

the strongly negative ratings are a bit undeserved on this one. it's certainly not the best, but I would still put it a bit above average.

one of those dramas to remind one that it's really okay to drop a show if it's no longer fun or interesting. I checked out mentally mid way through ep 8 and should have walked away for good.

Woah. This was fantastic. Definitely scores lower here than is deserved.

I like the scenes with both leads together. Unfortunately, the main storyline hasn't exactly captured me and the main leads haven't gotten much time together.

it's definitely meant to be comedic, so over the top that it blends into satire. the scene when bodyguard instantly changes her clothes to club attire was hilarious.

they may not be student teacher any.ore, but she definitely still acts like it. Was definitely a bit uncomfortable throughout their scenes.

seemed like him giving her a needed reality check. He's smart enough to understand that she was opposing his hiring.

that's decent for the first two eps. double digits is really good, but rarer. good shows will typically see higher ratings over time as they get more hype and social media attention.

also, that doesn't include streaming numbers and is only the korean audience. some shows are more popular in foreign markets, which doesn't get captured here.

haha, probably tore his boss down with his bosses own insecurities - those really deep insults because you know they are the truth.

Maybe a sign of good acting when he comes off as really natural? I think he's doing a very good job so far.
