Enjoyable enough to finish

I am a huge fan of time travel dramas, especially past to present. I love the culture shock and I feel they handled it in a fun way in this drama. I also like that there of versions of the characters in both time periods.

This show is a time travel/comedy with some drama. 10 episodes was more than enough for me. It is a mystery for the characters but not for the audience. To be honest if the series was longer I probably wouldn't have finished it...

The opening/Ending songs were really good and I liked the dramatic instrumental music used at times too!

The leads were both new to me but overall the acting didn't bother me. I liked both their characters because I like the dramas that have the male lead being more friendly and a.more guarded female lead.

I liked the leads for rhe most part but sometimes the female annoyed me at times, however looking at it from a realistic point of view she is going through a lot of stress and I have witnessed that affect people's thoughts process in real life so it does kind of make sense.

The villain stole the show though in my opinion. He does the role so well that it would take me a couple episodes to trust him in a good character role...

I wouldn't call it a romance. The one scene that seemed like it was trying to lead into a romantic direction seemed out of place to me and for that reason seemed kind of cringe. For the rest of the drama you kind of get an idea that they are starting to like each other but I don't feel they are really even together long enough to form real feelings. The ML supposedly has some feeling for her but I feel it is more a sense of duty to him than romance.

I think the overall story is why I didn't love the drama. I like the overall plot but somethings felt weird or rushed and in the last episode I needed a little more closure over events in the past. Nothing that needed anymore episodes! The side characters were good but sometimes theor plots just seemed kind of dumb...

In the end the drama was enjoyable most of the time with a refreshing male lead. I would recommend it as a filler drama if you like time travel dramas.
