I hope there will be the same actors, they have each been excellent in their acting, if Tae Al Ha, Saya and Ta Gon are played by someone else I doubt it will have the same impact for the purists of the first hour.

The disadvantage of having read a work before the adaptation is to come out of it very disappointed. And this drama was unfortunately no exception to the rule. All the changes made did not help the story at all, on the contrary it rather degraded it.

The choice of actors in my opinion was also not very judicious. I have already seen them in several other works and frankly they are excellent. The problem with this drama stems from the fact that it is taken from a webtoon and so we have a clear image of who are the protagonists of the story. And how their emotions reveal themselves in each scene.
From the webtoon emerges a very great chemistry between ML and FL, both as lovers and enemies. Their confrontations are always full of electricity, you can see and even feel the tension hovering in the air. Which is not at all the case in the drama, there is no chemistry between the 2 heroes, which makes each of their scenes rather boring. And that's a shame.
The story of the webtoon unfolds a bit like a Mind game between the ML and the other characters that keeps the viewer in suspense all along. And frankly I didn't experience anything like that during this drama. That said, it remains watchable, but very quickly forgettable too, nothing exciting but somewhat entertaining.

I must be the only one who is not excited about this drama because I've been trying to finish it for a year. Because of my OCD, Lol I am forced to finish it, when I have spent half of a work I feel obliged to finish it even if it is mediocre.
I don't know what's wrong with me in this drama, the story is pretty interesting and the actors are good. Is it the direction or the execution? I've never had a problem with slow pace drama, so that's not it.
And I had the same issues with the 1st opus.
I think I would have liked this drama enormously if it was a book.

I think I've watched all these dramas except Memorist which I dropped after a few episodes.
With the exception of FoE, Kairos and Missing (a very nice surprise by the way), none of these dramas have aroused in me the strong tension that you feel when you watch a thriller, and you look forward to each episode. For my part the other thrillers that have aroused this excitement are:
Black,
The Defendant,
Stranger 1 & 2,
Children of Nobody,
Tunnel,
The Good Detective, a super simple but well written story,
Beyond Evil,
Signal,
and the Japanese Samayou Yaiba who is more drama than thriller but it's beautiful.

Totally agree it's a Gem.

My Unfamiliar Family was the best for me, even if the central theme is Family, everything in this drama was perfect.

Fight For My Way and Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo, frankly didn't like these 2, but they deal with the subject and They're quite popular.

Visual and OST took 90% of the budget. Lol

OKT is rather clever, he practices a move as old as the world to perfection, Divide and Conquer. He tells them true stories by adding two three little lies and here they are all in confusion, in the middle of an existential crisis. He has understood that he does not need to do more to sow misery for his enemies

Although I have specific preferences in the dramas I watch, I remain open to other horizons and considering the positive reviews I saw, I thought why not try this one?! So, I watched until the 3rd or 4th episode and frankly I didn’t like it at all. Like the other versions I dropped it.
I find the protagonists very immature, They scream a lot and it’s pretty tiresome. But what bothered me the most in this version is the acting of the F4, especially the male lead. You can see that he’s acting, and it's so not natural. He’s absolutely not convincing in the transcription of his feelings. Which in the end turn me off...
On the other hand the female lead is a good actress. Her game isn’t perfect yet but of the 5 main characters she’s the best. And we have to admit that her character was written pretty well.

For my part, I feel obliged to finish it because I want to understand the origin of this disaster. But sincerely if I had to give a note I would put 4, as you I find that there is no progress, the writer wanted to put so much mystery that he got lost along the way, by dint of revealing half truths half lies in each episode, we go completely in circles. The only thing that doesn’t bother me is romance because I just don’t care. Except for the bad guy I find the characters pretty boring, so how do I get attached to them? And generally speaking, romantic stories are the thing that interests me the least, so!

He wanted to kill her for very simple reasons:

1 because he was a megalomaniac,

2 because he felt that she had tarnished his favourite son (the eldest),

3 because he simply didn’t love her,

4 because he knew that she still had the power to raise an army because of her origins.

Nope he was ET father's in their 1st life 1000 years ago, and the father of SH in the second life I assume, 600 years ago.

Totally agree.

Totally agree with you.

I wanted to test because of the popularity of the drama but frankly it is absolutely not for me. The story is mediocre, the actors are not very good and They didn’t have any romantic chemistry, strictly friendly because they seem to be better friends than lovers.

Totally agree... The story is quite boring and predictable.

I don’t understand the outpouring of hatred for this ending. On the contrary, I found that it added a lot of meaning and value to the drama. The title has gained all its meaning thanks to this ending, and above all the writer knew how to convey his message with a lot of emotion and intelligence. Life is unpredictable, we pass from life to death without warning, so every moment we spend on earth must be cherished and not taken for granted. This end may be seen in the eyes of some as a horrible end, but how can we not be moved by the actors? How do you watch that episode and think it’s horrible? While each moment is charged with pure emotion. Sadness is also a way of reminding us that we have been happy in our lives.

I repeat this last episode is the most interesting and the most important of all the drama for me.

It's not a bad ending at all, for my part it's an emotional one. A deep and emotional ending.

The Director and Writer of the great Kairos? No need to tell me more, I’m in.

I’m really happy to have started this drama, I’ve often had a lot of trouble with Japanese series for several reasons, but there’s one thing they do great, it’s daring to tell disturbing topics. And this drama is no exception.

The 1st episode was extremely painful to watch, I went through every possible emotion, from anger to sadness, from hatred to revolt. But it was so impactful that it raised a debate in me in view of my profession (legal advisor).

This drama definitely deserves to be known, cause it's so deep and emotional. I really like the way it was filmed with the absence of BGM in almost every scene. It reveals a silence full of doubts and questioning of each protagonist. With that ultimate question: "what if it were you in my place, what would you have done?"
