that's the biggest plottwist in this series so far tbh

Omg not me coming here to see the comments about the finale before watching it.... only to found out there are more eps coming. I got so confused for a minute lol...

I swear I thought I was tripping... I was so certain this week was the last ep lol

This is one of those shows where I'm not sure what I was expecting or wanting and because of that I felt like something was missing which might be on me. Being up front, I'm not sure if I'll rate this show, since I don't know how to rate this at all. The language was flowery and poetic, the cinematography beautiful, it definitely does feel a little like 'call me by your name' (which I didn't care for tbh but it is nice to get a wide range of genre's explored) However with every conversation being witty, full of banter, deep or thought provoking I felt disconnected at some point. People don't really talk like that. Whilst I thought it added something at first, later on I found myself wondering what connected all these characters outside the superficial banter and the reminiscing of a time we only get to explore through dialogue. At some point I genuinely missed the regular nonsense interactions where people talk about daily mundane things, doing the groceries or talking about nothing in particular, rather than having every word count. There wasn't a single sentence that didn't feel purposeful and whilst beautiful it also lost it's relatability because of that. When every word is so poetic, suddenly normal conversations become more intimate. It's similar to when you always dress up, suddenly showing your bare face and wearing sweats becomes something special and vulnerable. Besides that none of the characters seemed happy or at ease... like ever. Yes the banter was fun but they didn't seem to exude warmth in the way they talked and behaved towards one another. If anything the fun banter at times felt more hostile than anything. Which makes you wonder where the love they talked about went. I believe they cared, we can tell as much from all the tears that were shed. But when your love never comes with a smile, is that even truly love or simply an attachment we confuse as such? As well as that this show heavily relies on telling not showing which is always a tricky thing. All the deep conversations and flowery language was this shows only way to convey the changes in peoples hearts and to indicate how they were feeling which made me wonder if they themselves were even truly feeling that way or simply being swayed by momentum. That being said, the last minute of this show actually got me. It was a little bit difficult to sit through at times when I got bored and impatient, but Wang's last monologue definitely stirred something in my heart.

(Sidenote: I don't feel like touching on the characters. Both In and the mom repeated history with Wang, but with Wang's determination he is bound to break the cycle for himself nonetheless. Essentially eluding to the idea that he won't end up like his father, even when the others aren't ready to take that leap with him and do things differently this time. Like In always liked to say 'it's an old habit' and old habits die hard. He himself told us what the ending would look like time and time again before it even happened.)

I'm glad it did :)

I hope you enjoy it! Even if you don't, it's always better to form your own opinion :)

Not really the point since this is just a regular movie lol the comparison says enough since this isn't porn? I was talking about how things are normally rated where I'm from, I didn't even say if it was right or wrong to be rated 15+ just that it was more explicit than some 18+ stuff I've seen (Age restrictions are there for you to gauge what you can expect, that's all)... Also, I didn't at that age no. It's not a given that everyone is curious or interested at that age, some just aren't lol

Okay so I watched this show up til ep 10 in one go as soon as 10 was out and genuinely liked it. It was slow, it was mind-numbing, but I needed something brain dead and I liked having a show where nothing really happened so I could enjoy the ships. But oh boy now I'm binging the next 5 episodes and man with every twist and turn it just gets more depressing... I personally don't really like major incidents or tragedies in shows because more often than not, it paints the entire mood of the show and turns it into something super melancholic. Once you hit that point it's hard to come back from it and everything else feels hopeless and useless. I just feel depressed watching basically episode after episode as nothing gets better and instead all our characters are just withering away in sadness and despair. I'm not even sure what we as an audience are supposed to feel or even hope for by now. Even with everything getting rectified in the end, I don't see there being a light at the end of the tunnel. Just a bittersweet, welp at least we got through that one, type of feeling. I didn't even touch on how the 3 month time jump just makes it worse... It doesn't line up with what they said about the company or the inheritance, there is no medical help nor social support for Kim to at least encourage his memory. It's just... nothing. If they wanted to capture what it feels like to have a losing battle within yourself that ends with nothing but emptiness, they succeeded tremendously.

ah okay, yeah I've seen all the other eps. just wondered why the counter on here says it already aired (episode 7) but it does that from time to time on certain shows. Guess it's just a little off

7 is the last? isn't it 8? 0.0 from what I can see Gaga en Viki are on the same schedule yeah. unfortunately my subscription ended on Gaga and I don't have one for Viki :(

I'm so confused. According to the counter it should have aired, but the page says it airs on fridays not thurdays and GaGa has it set to 10AM in Japan which isn't for another 6ish hours lol

The saddest moment is when you realize why he felt like it was his fault all along. Not because he was the one that got saved, but because he was the sole reason Ji Hoon went there to save him. Without him Ji Hoon might have never known what was going to happen and might have ended up staying in that night.

It follows my exact thoughts on time travel and the impact it has. It isn't a mechanism to change your future, rather it is the cause of what created your future to begin with.

I saw some people say that it was suppose to indicate a never ending cycle of going back to see each other and hope for another chance? I don't know it made little sense to do that

The thing is that he already tried to kidnap the 10yr old. So they had a plausible cause to go to the police. Our guy even studies law... Even if the police wouldn't have done anything it would have bought them time since it would potentially make the killer a little more cautious on approaching anyone for the time being. Maybe even had police patrol in the neighborhood and scared the mom enough to make sure her son would never walk home alone at night.. which would already eliminate majority of the potential threat

(This was always meant to be a self fulfilling prophecy story where you can't change the ending, but not even trying is what's just sad..)

mood

Why am I crying because this is the most useless ending ever xD!
Don't get me wrong, I understand the ending since I kinda called it when he handed the little kid the picture. I immediately knew what was up.
But shit, they didn't even try to prevent that night from happening. I mean, call the police on the guy?? You had more than a week to send in anonymous tips or to report the guy from already trying to kidnap the 10yr old him prior to that fated night. (They were already looking for him anyway, they just didn't know who was responsible for all the kidnappings/murders yet) Go there with a weapon of some sorts to protect yourself? Don't go alone and make sure you are with a group of people to scare the guy off (you don't even have to confront him, just make it known that he isn't alone with the kid) Make sure your 10yr old self isn't walking home alone there at night? Take him out of school early, let him stay at your dorm instead, have him just not go to school at all that day and just stay home. Fucking hell just get a bicycle and take him home on that for all I care, since the guy would definitely not stop you if that were the case. Why were none of these options they explored. He literally said, 'ah imma die' and just went there completely unprepared and just stood there waiting for death to come. At least if they tried and it still ended the way it did I would have been less frustrated with the story. It would have been the self fulfilling prophecy that I think it was meant to be.

No matter how hard you try, you can't change the past for your actions are the ones responsible for the future you inevitably have shaped.

To me this show was pretty easy to follow, I didn't really feel confused at all. Lol although yeah spoiler alert it doesn't have an ending, but I guess the story made sense to me even why they needed a time jump made sense (i still dislike time jumps however)
But, in my head I feel like I know who he ended up with and I'm happy enough with that :)

I just love this show... It usually takes me a while to rewatch something but today I just felt the urge to binge the whole show all over again and it made me smile just as much as the first time even though it's only been 2 weeks since it finished airing<3
I usually have more in depth things to say lol but this is just my comfort show atm.
I literally have nothing more to add, this show just feels right, there is nothing I would personally change about it. This might be my first and probably last 10/10 rating on a show. One that you watch on repeat no matter how many times you've seen it. Don't mind me, singing along with all the songs (which mind you, I always skip song montages but this is the first show I didn't feel the need to skip any of them)

2 episodes per week, for once it won't take 3 months to finish a show thank goddd

Omg I needed more of them, I was genuinely hoping they would give us a solid ending for everyone, but they kinda just skimmed over it in what Talay imagines things being!
