Wow, this drama was crazy, it's been a while since I was so excited and created so many theories, you know? It was an unimaginable surprise.I screamed, freaked out, jumped when my theory was right, it was a success!
I really liked the development of the story, it was very good, the words of affirmation that Jun hee said to make Min Ju feel better made me happy, she can have her chance and live now and live well, you know? But I confess that episode 11 dragged on for me because I just wanted everything to be resolved quickly, I'm not going to lie that I wanted more of them at the end, but did we get our dose of them as a couple throughout the drama? The chemistry between these two was incredible, the performance was impeccable, I need to praise Yeo Been, I have loved acting for a long time and the differences between Jun Hee and Min Ju were very noticeable, even the way they spoke changed a lot for me, the intonation he knows? It was incredible, I loved it! And hyo seop isn't even mentioned, he's a great actor too, they worked very well together, I really loved in Gyu and I really hope he's happy, he deserves it so much??
The drama was great, the time travel and everything really inspired me, it just needed a little bit to win my heart even more, but I really liked it!
And did time take care of bringing him back to her?

É INCRÍVEL!
Puta que pariu!!!! Que dorama incrível!!! Eu sei que muitos tiveram dificuldade em entender o roteiro, mas na verdade não é tão difícil.O casting, puta merda, que casting perfeito.
Deram um show, em especial a protagonista, ela simplesmente conseguiu interpretar duas pessoas de personalidades completamente diferentes.
Ela merece um prêmio!!! Eu tô completamente encantada pela história, pelo elenco, pela cenografia e a produção. Foi um dos melhores doramas que eu já assisti. Definitivamente, A Time Called You está entre os meus 5 doramas favoritos!

Possibly my top drama watched this year?
I absolutely love Time Travel stories, they more often than not get some aspect of the time travel cause and effect loop wrong, or don't fully respect it and use it only when it benefits them, but when a Time Travel drama gets it right it scores a platinum - and this one such drama.Based on a Taiwanese drama (Some day or One day) which i have not watched (nor was aware of) this is the Korean retelling of that story. I can't judge it for how similar or different it is, so I won't, i'm just looking at this from a "I watched this, this is what I think" perspective.
The writing on this is absolutely some of the best i've seen. At 12 episodes, it is allowed to keep a good pace throughout without ever feeling drawn out. It twists and turns, but it all makes sense and you'll find every episode opening your eyes and making you click "next episode" just that little bit faster. The back and forth on this one, the way that time travel is knitted throughout the story is just beautiful in execution.
The romance is fantastic too and the two leads are great - but specifically I want to call out the female lead, Jeon Yeo Been, who so beautifully portrays two different characters - the outgoing Jun Hee from 2023, and the shy quiet Min Ju from 1998, you can easily tell them apart even from the way that they walk.
I will say, if you're someone who needs to understand the "how" of something like this, you're going to find this a 1/10 drama, because really - there is no explanation for something that can't be understood at this point in time by us such as Time Travel, so I kinda appreciate it when writers don't try to dazzle us with science or fantasy and just ask us to "sit down, relax, and enjoy the story". Many of the best sci-fi elements tweak something and explore the outcome of it without needing to explain how that tweak was possible. Remember, Magic is Science that you don't yet understand, just enjoy the magic.
I related a lot to the portrayal of the loneliness of Min Ju as well, simply not understanding how to integrate with everyone else, being the outcast and loner, I relate to that far more than I even realised and particularly in the closing episodes it home really hard. and it helped me understand her character and motivations even more.
There aren't many dramas that have had this much of an effect on me emotionally to be honest, the last time I can think of a drama having me a-buzz like this was "The Light in Your Eyes" (2019) with Han Ji Min which was also alluding to be a Time Travel theme as well.
Music is good, lots of time spent in 1998 so some nice old scenes and music to listen to.
I won't go into any more detail, you just need to go on this journey for yourself and enjoy it.
As to the ending - in my opinion, it's perfect. Just exactly what's needed and not a drop more, and i'll leave it there :)

Hey K-drama lovers, This drama confused me a lot more initially. The story went on here and there like that, and I was literally planning to stop watching it. However, the spark hit me with a beautiful twist and turn in the incidents that happened. I started to understand the story in the 6th episode, and I know that's bad. But still, what should we do? After that, the story is like, Awww... I don't know how the author got all this imagination to write the story. Should appreciate him. The protagonists and the uncle's character were all good. I would recommend this to everyone who loves to watch sci-fi-type drama.Was this review helpful to you?
Be ready to be hurted but it will be way that you wont expect
I have a broke heart, soul, tearful eyes, incredibly blue bags under my eyes and I feel like we took away something that was mine. But throught this everything this was the best drama on my list . it's so beautiful that it makes me cry again and again. tears that I can't tell if they are happiness or sadness. But ....oh my god...... I have hurted soul but it can be fixed. Iam so in love with Nam SiHyeon or Yeonjun or whatever you want call him. He alway love Junhiu and would do for her everything. He did everything waht he can and even in the end ........ And Junhee not Minjiu , Han Junhee i can tell have i was intes feeling everything she feel.And the only think waht she wanted was just have back him Nam Si Hyon or Ku Yeonjun , she just want his soul, him back. When I tell you my heart almoust burst when I saw then together in .... episode I meant it so seriously. it was so beautiful and sad and emotion just every felling i can get from my body was there. I think I will be hurten long long time after this drama but it was worth it and I do not regret any second of my 17hours watching this drama. (I watched it in one day without thinking )
Do I remommned this? If you are ready for mix mind and not hurted from world (you will be after) watch it. but it is on your own risico.

Do Not Worry This Is A well executed compelling Story from Start to Finish
So I realise this is a remake of a Taiwanese drama i know nothing about nor do I want to. Just want to be clear about that.One of the things Ive grown to love about Kdramas is how they hand you a Supernatural, Time Travel, or Fantasy premise and just roll with it, they dont feel the need to exllain the detailed roots of the scenarios they set their stories in. They just present it and away we go. So in that sense often the suprernatiral, sci fi, timetravel, mind reading or other out there premise facilitates the story rather than becomes the story. So in A Time Called You we dont know how or why a "walkman" is suddenly a time travelling soul trans migration device it just is and it just means a fantastic tale can be and is told.
I loved this drama for the wonderfully clever way of telling a love story (actually several), a crime mystery and a youthful struggle of acceptance and coming to terms with life.
I groan when i read about it not making sense for x or y reasons. As i said the walkman is a time machine logic is not the point. Having said that there is a tightness to the chronology and attention to detail in the story that makes it less plothole ridden than most shows that dabble in time travel and their resultant loops and multiverses.
The FL acting is wonderful, the rest of the cast are on point, the twists and turns are clever well paced and often delightfully unexpected.
Do not get hung up on the laws of physics, the writer doesnt, do not get hung up on the original vs remake, just watch and enjoy having a superior viewing experience.
Highly Reccomend.

Even if you’re bored this is worth a watch
I was gonna take a little more time to watch something with Ahn Hyo Seop in it but I was bored and had an open mind so why not? Mann when I tell you I couldn’t stop watching this episode after episode. I had a paper to do while I was watching this and let me say this show definitely distracted me from it with how good it was. Let’s just say I got the paper done mostly😉 not the point though. This show is really good definitely recommend even if your not bored and looking for a k drama with romance, comedy,and even mystery this is definitely the one. Not gonna lie was in tears a couple time so might cry if your kinda a big baby like me. One thing this show spot on too was the chemistry with the romance in this show definitely makes a single girl like me wonder if I too can find someone and have a similar chemistry as in the show. Enough about me though good show should watch really💗Was this review helpful to you?
"even if its just once i want to see you again"-----"i am waiting for my destiny"
such heartwarming series with a happy ending its time loop drama about the love between two people "i am waiting for my destiny" it was beautifully written i didn't watch the original version but remake version is really good and loved the main lead acting.. story was about the love of those two people where they wanted to meet their loved once after their death and which make them reunited in different time lines present-past-present-future ... cant explain how beautiful this story was ❤... people watched the original version and talking trash about the remake.. just watch the series without comparing it with the original one and you will really feel how soul-stirring this show is..Was this review helpful to you?
Complicated
It can be a little confusing and hard to understand in the beginning, but you will understand everything later on and the puzzles will sit right. In this show you can see the hardships of being a teenager or maybe just a human being that have to work hard to fit in with the others. But it also includes unconditional love that is timeless and seems to find it self in the both of the timelines. I personally enjoyed watching this show, I LOVE fantasy and time travel and things so yea this show was made for me hehe(o^^o)Was this review helpful to you?
