Who's the rookie actress? Seo Hye Won who plays FL's friend? Give me a break, she's been in a ton of dramas. Also, how does taking a picture with a co-star is related to anything?

If FL remembers the past that was changed, maybe some of them do as well?

How many times has FL been actually kidnapped already in the ongoing timeline?! I'm starting to get confused here with this time travelling mess.

-She was rescued by ML when she fell from the bridge after being hit by the killer's car. The killer was apprehended after fighting with ML and got sent in jail. It was the og timeline, but it didn't happened because she changed the past?

-She got kidnapped and was found by ML running away from the killer at the side of the road. The killer was not apprehended. Then she travelled to the present.

-She read the report in the present about ML apprehending the kidnapper who kidnapped her (for a second time?). The killer got sent to jail.

The last two kidnappings seem to still have happened in the same timeline? After which one of them her clueless self started to avoid ML, after the second one? And how did she get a hold of his watch as police evidence? Did the watch fell from his hand? It wasn't shown, but if it did why were police so dumb as not to ask whether the watched belonged to him? It definitely didn't look like it was worm by a tiny wristed woman.

She wants a perfect ending, so she keeps on replaying. But it's the third and last time (?). Maybe she should have stayed and watched what would happen instead of jumping the gun like that. ML didn't die yet, but just can't deal with the consequences it seems.

The detective said to her that evidence found on the scene is returned after the case is closed. Maybe they didn't know whom the watch belonged to and returned it to FL and she just stashed it.

Boys Over Flowers costume and Spiderman kiss reference anyone?

It's the old school archetype - well meaning but dumb, clumsy, can't live a single day without causing a misunderstanding.

1) Because FL is dumb here for the most part.
2) Plot hole.
3) Can't deal with the consequences, addicted to changing the past.
4) She was in his home, probably remembered it when he entered it.

Cuz she's addicted now. Can't deal with consequences.

What was that at the beginning of the episode? The killer went after FL again because she got away the first time? Or something inadvertently changed in the past again?
And how many times FL will try to change the past? At some point she just gotta stop messing with it and deal with what she's got, her friend even told her the reason why in the previous episode. It was telling how ML didn't even die yet at the hospital and she ran for the watch already to fix the past again.

Why didn't they get Krystal on board for season 2? There's clearly a similar role (Jane?) being played by a different actress in the trailer.

She didn't, they just didn't cast her for season 2 for whatever reason.
But I'm still seeing a motorcycle riding female member of the group, so clearly there will still be a similar role in season 2.

Flaming sword and watered wood is just some feng shui rock paper scissors bs.
The spirit was created by fusing an item, namely a sword, with a soul.
None of that answers any of my questions though.

The spirit clearly remembered being at Sekigahara - I'd say that something that came from the soul, not of inanimate objects. They've mentioned something about soul needing a body to be whole, which happens when you're alive. On it's own the soul still remembers stuff, like that sellout grandpa visiting his descendants.
But then they also used an old samurai armor of those old times and a katana of unknown origin. So alternatively, if the memories came from inanimate objects then it was more likely that old armor, than a katana which looked brand new. Then they could have put some random fresh body into said armor and cut off his head. But it's rather unconvincing, because then what of that random body's soul, where would it be?

The onmyoji mage wanted to sow strife (?) in Korea and literally staked the country in the middle (sic!). Ok then, this I understood.
But how did he take a body of a soldier from the Sekigahara battle times (1600) and it was still flesh, not a skeleton or ash in 1940s? It was shown there was a decently fresh corpse in the armor when they cut off his head and inserted a sword in it. There were soldiers in the background wearing 1940s uniforms.

And also, why would that same onmyoji mage tell that family to bury his grandpa above the cursed coffin? What was the point? He wanted to curse that family? But wasn't the grandpa a sellout and in cohoots with Japanese?

And lastly, what was the point of that snake with a human head? Just to show a yokai? That there's an Oni yokai underneath? Or that that whole place's crawling with yokai? Kitsune foxes are also considered yokai.

It's not bad, but not as interesting as, for example, Revenant.
I also didn't get some things - under spoilers:

Gaus was way more funnier. Here it's mostly weird cringe.

Rather mid so far. Also, why FL is a writer when she's clearly doing a producer's job, they don't have any where she works?

FL tries to reach the ideal "Steins Gate" timeline here, but no luck yet, lol. But unlike Steins; Gate she only has one chance left (?)
I hope this drama won't end with her going far back all the way and make it so they never meet or smth like that so that ML may live, sort of like in The Butterfly Effect movie. ML is very cute here and has to live, but it's not gonna make a good ending. But then again, if it does get a happy ending with marriage and stuff ML's gonna be off the market. Literally, cuz he's a product. He will have to find a new career again, because fans are brutal.

P.S. The killer plot kills the vibe here though, I hate it.

So what do you guys think about the killer plot? I think it doesn’t belong here. Would have been better if ML really did commit sudoku and FL was the one to help prevent that. The healing drama, you know? Certainly a more relevant topic nowadays.

But where it’s going it looks like there’s just some rando serial taxi driver who’s fixated on FL and is out for revenge in the future. Kinda cheapens the whole premise.

Also, what’s the point of those mega expensive apartments, btw, if security is trash?

How dumb FL is exactly? Going outside on the day of the accident, running on the well lit roads to be easily found by a killer driving a car instead of running for the fields and forests? The ridiculous situations she constantly gets herself into throughout the episodes are just becoming too cringe. And she's not even her careless teenager self here, no excuses.
