Different

The story line between two time periods was great. The side by side scenes showing 2 weather seasons was fenomenal. This is my 2nd drama from Xiang Han zhi and love her cuteness and joyfull young girl. Love the fact that her character in Forever Love and in this drama likes Doraemon. Makes me wonder if she really love Doraemon in real life.

don't go on comparison

I watched it without knowing that it was a remake. and I enjoyed watching it. not gonna bother myself to wath real one. of course it's a remake so they make it more better than before with some changes and by adding more logic.

~when FL said that she don't like candle and roses like big surprise and happy with little surprised. believe me we need more girl character like her.~
their acting was great. specially ML. he literally nailed it.
people like me who like mystery with romance. have to give it a try..
I dislike drama with too much fluff or quickly move on.
a drama must have a story. that fans can enjoy.

if you wanted to watch it. then watch..
story gonna hook you up from beginning.

Good for casual watching.

It's quite good, but could be better...

I haven't watched the original drama (though I will sometime in the future), so I can't compare the two. This adaption is not bad, but it's definitely lacking in certain things.

To start with, the FL is not mature enough. I'm not necessarily talking about the actress' age but about the character she's portraying. She's supposed to be a journalist and one with great potential at that. But in the drama she seems to be making some very basic mistakes, that even high school students don't do when they're writing an essay... When she's working on a case, she almost ALWAYS forms a preconceived notion and expresses her own opinion while doing her job. Whereas she should remain as neutral as possible so as to find the truth and not be hindered by personal opinions and prejudices (because her opinions might differ from the actual truth). Also she unnecessarily tortured the ML towards the ending. Her feelings were completely valid (after all, she found out that she was going to die in the near future) but she didn't have to break up with the ML every like 2 episodes. Lad was already devastated and was desperately trying to save her she didn't have to torture him on top of everything.

The 2nd FL and her brother (especially her brother) are simply UNBEARABLE! Like woman, you learn that your brother has been gaslighting you and has been ACTIVELY going out of his way trying to ruin your marriage -borderline life cuz she originaly ended up dead- and you still want to have anything to do with him? I'm sorry but (respectfully) you are a pushover. And I'm sorry to say this, but the 2nd ML should've divorced her and RUN.

The main leading actor did quite a good job portraying 2 different version of the ML, they are very distinguishable from each other. Despite that, I don't get the point of him going to the antagonistic lawyer to talk it out or something. He was already pretty bad and it was pretty obvious he wouldn't change for the better. Though to be 100% honest towards the latter episodes I skipped A LOT as I found it quite draggy, so I might be wrong.

All in all, I believe this drama could have benefited greatly from having a more mature FL, 2nd FL, and vibes in general. Would definitely recommend as a casual watch when there is nothing better to entertain you.

A Captivating Ride Through Love, Time, and Mystery.


Love in Time drama starts off with a strong and engaging storyline. From episode 1 to episode 19, the series maintains a gripping pace with interesting plot developments.

However, the last 5 episodes feel a bit underwhelming compared to the rest of the series. The storyline starts to lose its spark, especially after the character Wu Ji Rong comes back to life. Instead of adding more excitement, his return makes the plot feel somewhat predictable and dragged out. Some emotional conflicts are not explored deeply.

If you enjoy romance dramas with a mix of fantasy and mystery, this series could be a good pick for you.

Such a perfectly blended sci-fi fantasy drama

It's a sweet on drama,so I've expected story to be simple and sweet,but the storyline is complex,it had entirely sci fi backdrop story with concepts like time space interlap etc but handled the complex story in sweetest way possible until 13 episodes but after that they implemented emotions and thrill,finally the ending was similiar to hydel jekyyl me korean drama where story rotates around split personality disorder,but here it's about time space overlap, anyhow i loved this drama but hadn't experienced the sweetness like other sweeton dramas.

Longest 46 mins lol

I love a good time travel drama. It started off great but then half way I started getting annoyed by the FL silly childish ways.
I laughed so much when they first went through the time travel. I cracked up too when he was there talking to her thinking she was a ghost but she actually had in her earpiece. Eventually, we got to see how their feelings developed for each other and I think their chemistry was good.
I loved the mystery elements of this drama as it keeps you thinking who did that to who...
During the nights, their 46mins together is like the longest lol aint no way you can accomplish so many things LOL!!!
Overall it was an okay watch for me.

I Want To Watch It Like It’s The First Time

Everything about this series made me great for me. The acting from every character was on point. Every sequence was well thought out without any questionable loopholes. The ML double identity was so well acted and developed throughout the entire series.

From his former stoic self to the future lighthearted self. They were two distinct characters. Even when the ML started to develop feelings for the FL, he did not become his future self. It was only through osmosis of his future self that he became a combo of his past and future self.

I love the FL not changing herself into some kind of damsel in distress just because she fell in love with the future ML. She did not become some brainless idiot who no longer is herself. I love how she did not want to know her future self in fear of it altering her past. When she did find out, her reaction is so genuine and relatable.

The childhood friends who ended up as a couple with the villainous brother. That was predictable in some ways and threw me off in other ways. I hated when his redeeming arc came after his sister is divorced. The open ended ending was the best for people to decide. I love this for a secondary couple instead of everyone having a happy ending.

Overall, this was a well written series. I did not find lazy writing in any point. The acting was really good. I like that the cinematography was part of the story. The locations of scenes played a big part of this series. For a Cdrama, it doesn’t have the stupid tropes you normally find. It’s been a long while since I enjoyed a series this much.

Uma volta no tempo...

Oi pessoal, como estão?
O que andam assistindo por aí?
Ontem eu terminei Love in Time e hoje vim deixar essa mini resenha pra minhas manas que amam Cdramas modernos.

SPOILERS A SEGUIR:

Sobre o drama: Achei a istoria bem explicativa e bem escrita, o romance então muito bom, realmente uma linda história de amor, não deixou pontas soltas.
Sobre os personagens: Amei demais o ML DE 2022, desde o momento que ele admitiu pra si que gostava da mocinha ele entrou com tudo na relação, mudou totalmente de um cara frio e arrogante pra um homem super apaixonado pela sua namorada. Já a mocinha, apesar de se apaixonar primeiro, desistiu dele 3 fucking vezes, entendo as razões dela, claro que entendo mas cara o homem NUNCA desistiu dela e ela na primeira oportunidade foi lá e terminou com ele 🤦‍♀️
Sem falar no casal secundário, QUE ODIO QUE EU FIQUEI DA MOCINHA SECUNDARIA!!
Uma sungamonga insegura que o irmão cagava na boca dela e ela ainda ia lá e defendia ele, o cara quase matou a mocinha mas a infeliz ainda achou ruim que o marido disse pra eles se "afastarem" do cara. Aff, me poupe, essa deveria ficar sozinha mesmo, burro foi o mocinho secundário de ir atrás dela no final.

No geral eu gostei do drama. Apesar de passar raiva com a duas mocinhas do drama. Os mocinhos estavam ótimos pra mim, dois apaixonados que moveram mundos pela amada (apesar delas não merecerem). O final foi um pouco agridoce pra mim, pq eu assim como a mocinha, fiquei com a sensação de que aquele mocinho de 2021, não era o mocinho que ela se apaixonou, fiquei meio triste por isso, mas enfim se vcs gostam de esse tipo de drama de viagem no tempo, vão gostar desse.

Bjos ❤️
