This drama was one of the most violent kdramas I've seen so far. I was getting bothered by how much violence the…
Hey, this song is in my top 10 best drama song now. ;-) Deep space effect on the voice, woooo, goosebump! I'm also listening background musics of this drama, a masterpiece. Just that, it could made the drama alone.
agreed - oddly I didn't really care for this drama at first but I got hooked to the second half (ep 8-12) it's…
Hi! How are you ? I think we have similar tastes about many things in dramas. Like here : plot-twists, hitting hard situations, surprising allegeance change, and powerfull tragedy. All this fast paced and savagely rumbling.
I wonder why president park is conscious of being in a time loop and Seo Hae is not aware.
Seo Hae is aware too, you know it when she said "I won't die today". She know she's in a loop because of a diary. Only, I think she's not so aware than broker Park, because Park have more experience (he meet so many people from the future, and know well how download work). It's just a assumption, but maybe Seo Hae don't know how many times she lived her loop. It could be infinite number of times. Or quite infinite. She have just hope to change something, even if she failed before. For now, we don't have the information about what Seo Hae think about her own loop. I don't remember we got that in previous episodes.
A strong episode and some powerfully emotional scenes. I must say though, I knew the music directing was changed…
The change in music director is counterproductive. The new background musics are less dark and deep. One is well placed: 21:55, car chase. effective. Another is badly placed and does not fit the scene: 39:50, Seo Hae injection. (even if this music in itself is good)
Wowwwww !!!! just just finished episode 9 now the fun begin!!! I’m blown away !!! Believed me or not ,Now we’re…
Yes, it was apparent from the beginning, this drama has a larger scale than we've seen before as a drama.
The script is very thorough too, you can see how many points can be connected. Just one example: the comical scene in episode 1 on the plane, with the allusion to Hawaii, which is used again in episode 9 to make sense of what Tae Sul is starting to feel for Seo Hae.
The script has a solid structure and cohesion, with connections in all directions, before and after. It's very difficult to establish a story like that. It's as if the preparation work contains everything in advance, before the writing, at a stage where everything is still vague and abstract for the screenwriter. The result becomes very dense, and no scene, no detail is lost.
I like it so far. Episode 9 was a little surprising for me, meeting a younger version of Seo Hae. I did not expected…
"she was running away from chasing soldiers, fell down a house, then found the diary and skeletons on some building. Lol. So convenient."
Hi! It's on purpose. It happen like that exactly because it's a serie of impossible coincidences and make think it's too much a chance to find the grave at the end. And more : find the grave the day of her birthday. With a message in this telling "Happy birthday". Then you can feel the weight of the time loop, the unavoidable fate, like it always happened like that. Future Seo Hae know she find the diary here, so she write the diary like this and know the diary will be here for her next Seo Hae, next loop. Endlessly.
Only real weakness of this drama was episode 3 to 7, because it's quite repetitive. But episode 8 to 12 make this highly twisted and unexepected. This drama should be advertised otherly because it's one of the most violent drama I watched. And not only violence, but how harsh are some situations. It look more like a violent Korean movie for cinema than Tv. It's ok for me, but I prefer things are more clear about that before.
New item : Horse!I delete this comment because my explanation was wrong.
At this point, what happens next is difficult to do. Months or weeks of work about making the structure of the story and organize details and chronology before writing. You have to make a better decision about these plots and what surrounds them. And you need the help of a specialist of this drama. I have almost forgotten everything already! I am not qualified to write this. Once things are more clear, it will also be possible to think about an ending. It is not necessarily makjang, because the pace of the story is probably slower. Keep in mind that here there are only a few major plot twists. There are also a lot of other things leading up to those plots: - How the app impacts the world. - The way the characters' characters change, to make them do things they wouldn't have done in the past. - The setting at the beginning of the scenario. - The secondary characters, and how they will impact or perhaps significantly alter these initial ideas. - The way the plot-twists found are presented to reinforce their power.
Examples of various ideas.
At the beginning of the drama Shi Eun is going to marry Sun Oh. Jojo, what is she doing? Still a student? Does she have a job? What was she studying again? For her job: it's better to put her in the entourage of Sun Oh. For professional reasons, she has to see him often. You have to give these two characters some time to connect with each other in the beginning. Also, the Jojo-Hye Young relationship has to start in a deteriorated way for X reasons. This could be related to a secondary character, such as his father being released from prison. We can also imagine that the psychophate escapes from prison, for another dramatic plot-twist. The situation between Shi Eun and Sun Oh must be idyllic, like a couple in love. Maybe Jojo is jealous or has some regrets because her marital situation is deteriorated.
Marriage of Shi Eun and Sun Oh. Here, a plot twist. We need someone in their entourage who hates one of them or who is jealous. At the wedding, the person will ask Sun Oh to ring his love alarm for Shi Eun. Minor plot twist: the love alarm can't ring! Humiliation, and hard blow for Shi Eun. To make it more scandalous, why not jojo? Maybe not for the purpose of harm, but just because she's stupid.
Secondary characters. Possible plot twist, a love triangle between Gul Mi and the two brothers Brian Cheon, Duk Goo. This can be made comical by using an element already seen in season 2, when Gul Mi said that Jojo is lucky to have two guys. Here: Gul Mi rings the love alarm of her two suitors! lol! she likes them both. Problem.
The last plot-twist (in the hospital). The information given to the spectator is partial. The spectator does not know that Hye Young has the Helmet item. We just see him putting pressure on Jojo to go to the hospital. It is only when Sun Oh's love alarm does not ring that we know the truth. Or this truth can be given later to make it even more disgusting, when Hye Young resumes a normal life with Jojo, while in reality, he has manipulated everything. No matter: Hye Young's machination will have to be given during a later flashback, to reinforce the power of the plot-twist and to have a scandalizing effect for the spectator. Hye Young dared to cheat!!!
Why does Hye Young change like this? Maybe because of his father. You have to think of some striking lines. Father: you reproach me to steal what is not mine? Very well, but look at you: you don't even dare to take back what is already yours!

Some ideas for the next part...
Jojo visits Sun Ho in the hospital, but he is unconscious. There is no way to check the love alarm, but Jojo sees how bad Sun Ho is. She feels guilty, but also, she starts to love him again. At least, that's what we half guess, with her, nothing is ever certain.
Jojo has the mind elsewhere, and Hye Young notices it well. He doubts and thinks that she is likely to escape from him. So far, Hye Young has always played clean and fair, but he has also reached his breaking point.
Then Shi Eun contacts Hye Young to reveal that there are secret items. Of course, Shi Eun wants the Jojo-Hye Young couple to continue to exist, because as long as Jojo is busy with Hye Young, she cannot steal Sun Ho from her. Hye Young takes advantage of his position in the Love Alarm company to rummage through the secret files. He manages to find a new item: the Helmet. Helmet: this item can prevent someone else's love alarm from ringing.
For the first time, Hye Young decides to play dirty. He puts pressure on Jojo, to force her to reveal that she could still hold on to Sun Ho. She admits that it could be the case. As she is a bit stupid, Hye Young also manages to make her reveal the existence of the Horse, in addition to the Shield, and that the two objects cancel each other out. Even if he already knows it, he needs to do this to complete his scheme. Hye Young proposes to her to get to the bottom of it, once and for all. As soon as Sun Ho is awake, he proposes to Jojo to accompany her to the hospital. If Sun Ho's love alarm rings, it means that Jojo really loves him, otherwise, this story will have to be forgotten. And of course, when they are in the hospital, Hye Young uses the Helmet to prevent Sun Ho's love alarm from ringing!
