I kind of wish I could meet my parents when they were younger. That'd be cool, right? There are some plot holes in the show, but honestly, itโ€™s still a really good drama. It makes you think about how our parents have their own stories and perspectives. I wonder how many of us really try to understand them. Plus, you get a glimpse into the lives of CODA, youth, parental relationship, first love etc . Theyโ€™re all flawed in their own way, but theyโ€™re working to become better versions of themselves.
Oh, and the music? Really good.
It's actually inspired me to learn sign language.


Cons:

The time travel part wasn't well explained(which is a common problem in many time travel dramas.)

There were some little errors between scenes.For example, the male lead has a guitar in one scene, but in the next, heโ€™s ruining without it. Although itโ€™s a minor detail, if you pay close attention, it can be distracting.

The male lead is way too persistent with the second female lead.Sometimes it felt like they were throwing in romance with the main female lead just for the kid's sake. But, hey, I get it they were trying to show that first love craziness. Lol.

The ending felt rushed and overly optimistic. I was actually curious about the second female lead's family and how sheโ€™d get along with her parents in the future.

Overall, Iโ€™d give it an 8.7 out of 10.
