Dash of Alternate time, Retro Nostolgia
I'm a sucker for any retro or time travel type series and this was a big series to undertake, I'd watch 3-4 episodes at a time. Overall it was a good series well acted, major plot lines resolved and most of the characters had good events happen to them so all in all a positive happy show.
LIke another series I watched Kdrama (Typhoon Family) the plot become stuck repeating the same crisis, resoiution which often did little to move the overall story line.
The FL & ML lead made a good match, but they at times felt more like brother & sister so not much sparks fly as FL is focused on success.
There are a couple songs featured throughout the series, they are upbeat, catchy and fits the 80s vibe. I didn't feel the series was homage to the 80s as outside of some technology items it wasn't a big focus, the dress, styles & cars were true to era.
Couple comments for those that have yet to watch series / finish.
- I didn't get the whole FL in the girl from past body, were they similar in appearence or to everyone in that time the girl looked the same as before, just started acted differently?? It touched early on how people say she is acting different and wouldn't her mother pick up on changes? What happened when the FL went back to 2020's? did the girl resume living in her body? Wouldn't her lack of knowledge impact her business(s)?? Where did the original girl go the whole time (years) the FL was using her body?
- Felt the marriage between FL & ML took a long time to occur, was almost the end of the series and they didn't act any different after being married. Was hoping the FL friend and ML friend would also get married to wrap that all up, but all signs point to they will have happy life.
- The end of the series wrapped up really quick, considering it was a 36 episode show. Likely could have added 1-2 episodes to expand on when FL left and how it was as well after FL & ML cross paths in current time.
Thanks for reading!
