Ep 1–2: Bored.
Ep 3–7: Finally felt some momentum.
Ep 8 onward: Gradual decline.
By episode 8, I started getting irritated with the female lead, Im Sol. By episode 9, that irritation turned into genuine disconnect. The emotional scenes, which should have been impactful, didn’t land for me at all.
I pushed through until episode 12, but I found myself stuck there for days. I had already crossed the halfway mark, so I didn’t want to drop it. Eventually, I did.
The central concept... repeatedly going back to the past and returning to the present... felt fresh at first but quickly became repetitive. Instead of deepening the narrative, it started to feel like the only driving device.
Despite a few enjoyable moments, I couldn’t stay invested. For me, it didn’t live up to the hype.
