Badly written characters with no chemistry & a what the heck ending
A very annoying drama, because really it had potential !
They really made the time loop plot device work ,BUT, the way the characters are written just overshadows it. Grating Female lead, and an UN forgivable, loathsome male lead . Will we be will be relieved if he changes? Yes ! But that doesn't change the fact that he's completely un acceptable as a love interest. 2 episodes before the end Female lead does a 180 degree personality change, which nullifies the whole reason the 1st & 2nd male leads like her . As for the ending, they got it all wrong .
More detailed spoilers:
male lead just can't be redeemed to the point where he's romantic partner material (with this female lead or really any female he works with). When the idea is introduced, it's a great gag- until it isn't. Plus, He & the female lead have no chemistry . The thought of them together is ridiculous. Right from the start the 2nd male lead has shown support for the Female lead & they get along well. That they make him forget his love for her in the last time loop is infuriating, but even more maddening is that the female lead doesn't care enough about him to maintain a friendship with him (though they were dating!) Her caring about the male lead is more her wanting the time loop gone & she doesn't want to be responsible for anyone's death . There's nothing romantic in her motivation as she uses both male leads as tools to get her agenda -which is all about making her work life the way she wants it.
