Mobius

There is no denying this is a hypnotic creation.. Proof once again that even if the idea itself isn’t anything new, a genius execution of an exciting theme can work wonders.. Especially when orchestrated with immaculate rigor.. Every detail in the drama reflects a rare aesthetic.. It’s no exaggeration to say the drama unfolds as a complete experience..

The visuals in this drama are pretty good with some really striking shots.. And of course, BJT absolutely kills it not just in the action scenes but with a powerhouse performance overall.. The execution of the complex narrative structure is near perfection.. Time loops are tricky but the drama handles them so smoothly that while the story may feel confusing at times, but never messy..

The first episode was a perfect 10 for me.. It set the stage beautifully and instantly made me interested in the story and its characters.. The comedy was on point and the squad’s chemistry was just too good.. The action scenes were meticulously done.. BJT excelled in both hand to hand combat and gunfights, it clearly showed his dedication and wholehearted commitment..

There were two things that felt a bit off to me.. First, even though this isn’t a romance drama, the chemistry between the ML and FL felt lacking.. Their supposed feelings for each other just didn’t connect with me.. Maybe that was intentional, but it still left me unconvinced.. Second, the way he became a time loop perceiver felt underdeveloped.. They could have handled that part much better.. Again it was not convincing..

Overall, this is a truly remarkable drama.. You can see how carefully everything was thought out and pieced together and above all, you can feel the passion poured into the drama by everyone involved.. And that’s why it comes across as such a mesmerizing work.. Beautiful to the eyes, ears and heart.. It’s perfection in the form of a drama, one that will be hard to forget..

Immaculate Sci-Fi of 2025

Mobius plotline is very, very fascinating. Usually I would be tired of loops, but the thril and intensity of each episode kept me going no matter how many loops there were.
I really enjoy the story, because of the focus on biotechnology and what it can do for patients, granted this drama shows us that it can be exploited and used for evil doings as well. It doesn't seem to stray too far from reality to be honest.

On the other hand, Bai Jingting's forte is definitely in urban settings rather than costume dramas. I've always enjoyed watching him kick ass, so hot! The action choreography in the drama was exquisite, like a cherry on top when the enemy was taken down. His acting is still amazing as per usual, nothing bad to say honestly.
I have not seen the other casts' members dramas (or don't remember much since it's been a while) except for a veteran HK actor, but other than that everyone did well!
However, Maggie played by Chutimon was the blackhole of the cast - I could obviously tell she was just a model and not an actress honestly.
Anyways, I feel like I was watching a TVB police drama with all the Hong Kong actors and actresses especially when they speak in Cantonese! Even the comedy is quite hilarious; I loved it when the Cantonese speakers tried to speak in Mandarin and Bai Jing Ting tries to speak in Cantonese - each side had their accents which added some humor points.
The villain was interesting suffice to say. I understood why he was the villain in the end, but the way his path went askew was quite upsetting though.
I hope there's a season 2 because they CAN NOT end on a CLIFFHANGER!

Would I recommend? Yes! It's only 16 episodes - pretty short for a cdrama of such quality!
If you're looking for something thrilling, action, and intense, watch it!
If you're looking for romance, eeeh I don't think romance was the focus, but there is some.
If you enjoy biotechnology or just sci-fi in general, definitely watch it. lol
