started with something good and then....?
Being a huge fan for Reset I was really excited to watch this one as it had a very similar theme. The intro scenes were really strong showing us how the loop system works and all the rules involved. Then it moved on to show how it first began and how Ding Qi got used to having the loop. This set a promising foundation for the plot.
Initially I assumed this drama will have multiple cases along side the main plot making it more interesting however, somewhere around ep 3/4 once the Moma case begins the entire drama until ep 16 is just one case. Because there were still so many episodes left it needs to be planned in a really good way to keep it exciting and not seem too draggy.
However, the plot was revealed in a very unsatisfying manner and lot of it was very predictable. Especially since it was about medical trials the plot always goes in the same direction.
!!! SPOILERS (not very big) !!!!
The plot twists werent the ones that shocked me...what shocked me was that the lab rat was experience the looping effect as well. The fact that they made the reason for the loop a medical drug just didnt make sense to me...and she even managed to make a antidote for it. Its like she can control the time space. This part was kinda illogical.
Now romance, nothing much...very forced. I didnt feel anything watching the 2 of them. One of the kiss scenes was terrible. Very bad timing, poor bgm and just not suited for the situation. Second kiss scene was better but for this drama romance is like 2%.
Basically for the plot u cant think about it logically. If you are Bai Jing Ting fan then u will enjoy this, his fight scenes and acting is good. But if you are here for the crime plot then no...not recommended...
