Steadfast love transcending time itself
I almost didn't watch this because of the haters in the reviews but I'm glad I didn't read too many and gave this title a shot. If you love the ride or die, steadfast love then you'll love this. There were so many things I liked about this drama that it made everything else I found I didn't like completely forgettable within the best 30 minutes of the episode. I love the way this writer writes. The way she wrote the different timelines. How it didn't feel overwhelming to keep track of everything, and how the sorrow never stayed for too long, because it was so stupid in your in-your-face funny way. Which is what I like. I loved all the integration between families and friendship and how all those subplots could never overshadow the main couple's story, which usually happens a lot. I love how when they're high schoolers, she keeps cute and innocent, but once they step into adulthood, you can feel the change in their chemistry and how they seem to love each other more deeply and we're more desperate for each other.LIKES:
- ep 1 was amazing, so hooked, and production looks just wow.
-I love that there was a really cute bromance between the guy who was supposed to be the second lead. Instead of putting hatred between them, it was more like friendship
- only ep 2 and I'm laughing so much my sister had to come tell me to shut up
- by ep 5 you couldn't get me to stop watching it if you tried. It's SO GOOD. This has the potential to be one of my favorites of all time
-The way they revealed the story, like a slow unveiling of a masterpiece.
-The concept is fresh and well done
- They always have them masterfully back together. Less cheesy, more realistic, and like something that could possibly happen if two people love each other. Not the time travel part but how they're always back to together.
- I thought they were going to erase the last 13 episodes from his mind and start anew, but I was so wrong, and for that I'm thankful -we were FULLY rewarded for all the heartache and pain from episodes 1 to 14. We got two full episodes of resolutions and love. It was beautiful.
DISLIKES:
-dint have much because the writer always corrected the things I found wrong with an episode. Not much to complain about.
- I was anxious thinking the bad guy would come back because of how quickly that was resolved. For a man we spent 15 episodes fearing, his end was pathetic and too quick. But I'm also appreciative of that cause I really didn't want to go through more hard times.
Overall, if you love romance and suspense put together and time travel well written not to tear your heart out but make you happy then this is the one. I came into it with no pre-existing feelings towards the main ML as an actor, neither loved nor hated him for being overrated or whatever, and I think that helped me stay subjective. I purely came and stayed for the plot and their love. And I was not disappointed.

Romantic Time travel done right
Why I didn't watch this sooner, I'll never know. I couldn't put it down. I came for the love, the romance, and the usual, and this one was everything but. It's offbeat, extravagant, flawed, and beautiful. It's done so well, and it's so relatable and lovely. Watch it now; you won't regret it.LIKES:
-chemistry is great
-the way they introduced the characters, the way the story was presented
-the concept is fresh and cool
-the redemption of the FL
-love how all the times he traveled to made sense and everything was connected
-character Development was on point
-the way they didnt use her scam as the main conflict to break them up and drag the drama but as a stepping to stone to something real
-they kept it half scary half fun and a little depressing. It all made sense and that's asking a love for a fantasyish drama.
-the costuming, the music, the direction and special effects were top tier
-the end of every episode is just chef's kiss
-the solution to the big conflict at the end made sense and it was both simple and complicated.
DISLIKES:
- I barely have any; just nitpicking.
- I wanted more couple time, but with only 12 episodes, I get why we didn't get as much. There's plenty for only 12 episodes.
‐ the transformation of the obese sister could have been better executed. There was no reveal for her hard work because we in one scene.We saw her losing some weight but still being really overweight, and then the next scene she was back to normal.And nobody cared. no one mentioned anything.
I realized it wasn't 16 episodes when I hit episode 11; I was shocked. Usually, I say dramas could have ended on the 12th episode to stop the dragging of unnecessary conflict, but this one... Just wow.
all in all someone give this director and write a trophy. They worked hard and it shows. This was an awesome watch. Just art.

I could watch it over and over again
This one surprised me. It was funny, witty, FULL of romance and love. What I LOVED THE MOST was that it had no angst or stupid breakups. This is the first drama in which I've seen the main ML act so cute and obsessed and devoted to his FL and I'm here it.It did take me a while to get into, like until episode 4 or 5, I wasn't super into it. I kept taking breaks because they took a long time to show her job instead of just getting straight to the romance, but in hindsight I get it. We got close to the characters and understand why they act the way they do.
My only qualm was in the middle with the plot about the anti and his mom. I felt they lost their way or missed some filling days and had to edit it together in a convincing way. The way they presented it made no sense, and I was so lost because there was no precedent for his explosive reaction. But then they went back to being themselves like the drama I knew and loved and that's when I realized I could watch this over and over again without any regret.
Overall an awesome watch. It was surprising how happy I felt watching it and how obsessed I got with it in the end, because I was not into it at the start, but it was so well done, it shot up to a 9.5 for me.

WATCH IT NOW!!
You know, when you see something so beautiful, you can't bring yourself to take a photo because you'll miss out on the moment, and you just wanna stay and enjoy it, that's how I felt about this one. Usually, I take notes and have a running list of my likes and dislikes. This one I couldn't even bring myself to start one cause all I had were likes. I don't care who you are, you can relate and might actually love this drama. The way they wrote it doesn't give you time to be bored. The actors' range and emotions, and just the storyline itself, are just stunning.The whole time, I was just amazed I couldn't find anything to complain about. Lately, I've been complaining about something in every drama, but this one left me speechless.
I loved how we got to understand all the characters. I love how their love carries through to everyone in them. Their love wasn't super fickle, and if there were real conflicts that kept them apart, it made sense, we understood why, and it never lasted very long, giving the story a great pace for me.
I was not planning on watching it because of his female personalities. I'm someone who likes strong, manly male leads, and the trailer didn't look like he was going to be, but oh my gosh, was I wrong. WATCH IT NOW. Literally stop reading this and go watch it. Especially if you like romance.

action pact drama not romance
ChatGPT recommended this when I asked for romance and deep love and some action, which is what confused me because I was waiting for the love part and once we got there finally it felt like an afterthought.I think I came here with the wrong expectations, as my rating is low, as it reflects my frustration with the lack of plot development with the two love interests.
Otherwise, this drama was engaging, fun, and full of twists. You never know what's going to happen or who's going to stab whom in the back. I had a hard time because they humanized the villains a bit too much for me to fully hate them but I think that's how it should be. So I'll give it a pass on that.
The resolution was well done, villains mostly got what they deserved and I just really enjoyed it overall and it left a smile in my face. The OST was fun and the fashion and cars were immaculate.

100% love with kisses sprinkled all throughout
One of my favorite dramas of all time because of how awesome the love between the couple was and how they basically only focused on them and they didn't try to fluff it up or add unnecessary parts every part was almost always completely necessary and it explained a piece of the story that you needed to know. I really liked how it was a lighthearted and how even the sad parts were understandable and you didn't feel mad because it was not like an understandable breakup it was really nice I really really liked it and I liked how they went into their lives even after they got married which usually drama don't do and I really love seeing that and I feel like my characters got married enough together for the rest of their lives which I love.Also can I add that the female lead was so strong she had a spinal like anything I've ever seen before usually they'll let the villain walk all over them this girl had to come back every single time and she did not fail I loved it that was so good I've never seen that before in drama so also I recommend it for that.
The rewatch value for this is so high just because I will recommend this to anybody since it's just so fun to watch and it's really cute so yeah if you like where couples stay together no matter what and just love each other then you will like this one a lot it's just so cute so fun.

THIS is how it's supposed to be. Watch and learn...
This is how a romantic drama is supposed to be written. They pretty much wraped it up with a bow and served it to us. I love it.If you wanted something light-hearted, but not too light with a little bit of a complicated plot. This is definitely going to be your thing. The female lead was really dumb. But it was because she just came into this world. I just didn't like how she owes with listened to people who did not matter, or two people who did not have her best interest at heart, but it all turned out well enough.
I loved how the main male lead was amazing. He was if super strong and did not break up for no reason like the other ones do. And he protected her lucky promised I really like him.
I feel like everything had time to be answered and come to fruition, whereas otherwise fill abrupt and like an afterthought this one felt well-thought-out and while presented. And I would love to recommend it to everybody. It's so good. It's definitely worth the watch.

Ummmm.....
This drama, in the first few episodes, was like a crazy good book you couldn't put down. Unlike everyone else in these reviews, I loved the light-heartedness and the slapstick comedy. Parts WERE overdone, but mostly it was funny to me. It kept me on my toes, with the injustices, and never knowing what he's going to do next.The infamous moment in episode 17 where he made THAT choice was also shocking and appalling to me, but my love for the ML was too strong to be mad for too long. I LOVED to hate the villains. The twists and turns might be unappealing to some but not to me.
My biggest qualm with this show is the ending and how inconclusive it was. I was stuck googling if there was a season two because I still had so many questions. and that's why I rated it so low. otherwise the other things, for me, can be overlooked,

Mid with fun costuming, editing and directing
If you're like me and half of the fun is the makeup, fashion,cars and lifestyle of the characters and the other half is romance then this won't be a one star for you. It'll be like a 5 out of 10 star drama at best. Just meeehhh.It was okay. It had great potential to ruin the student's lives, get FL in a better relationship with guy who truly deserves her. But no they decided to leave her with the murderous idiot who didn't know she was pregnant and went to get an abortion but ended up having a miscarriage? Okay. Also the people who beat up the kids didn't get enough punishment and were right back at it again. It just felt weird and rushed since the moment she found out he was the little brother. Even that I felt they revealed too quickly and she wasn't even angry at him at all about it.
Can we talk about the STATUTORY RAPE that was taking place all theought and how no one cared? Like what in the world?
