Proof that good acting can save a drama
It's been a while since I've enjoyed a KBL that much.
I found the story full of holes, and the beginning was slightly weak, it gets better each episode till the finale which was a let down IMO.
Be that as it may, I was entertained because of the two leads (or 3 leads, let's say)
Story: I didn't understand a few things, like what happens to the original version when he time travel, like when he went back to the past, what happens to him in the present, and when he goes back to his original timeline, what happens to himself in the past after he changes it!? It's a known fact that what you change in the past affects the present so it's understandable that he can save him, but what I didn't like is the way they made him disappear in the timeline he leaves, like when he goes back to 2008, he disappears in the present like dust!! That doesn't make any sense.
Another thing is, the end, they made it very vague, unnecessarily I dare say, it felt like they didn't know what to do so they added a bunch of flashbacks and just let them meet and BOOM! Happy ending!
Acting: the reason this is one of the best KBL I've seen recently, because the chemistry and the way each actor represents his character is spectacular, the two leads were amazing, I think in "A Breeze of love" JiHan outshone JeongYou a little but here, I believe JY was amazing specially in the 4th ep, the confrontation part was great, his facial expressions and acting throughout the show was top-notch!! And of course JH was great,I mean, from the very first ep. he succeeded in catching my whole attention and gave me a few giggles too, he is adorable.
Another thing that worth mentioning, and I'm not trying to belittle any actor or series but I've recently watched another KBL (won't mention any names) with a story close to this one, but from the first episode I started yawning and I barely was able to finish the show by skipping most of it, and it was same duration as this, my point is, both dramas had a simple mediocre script but I enjoyed and rated this show much higher than the other one because of the acting, despite having no fan service here while the other show was full of them.
That been said, I admire the efforts done by the whole cast, despite the flawed script and the vague end, I wish they made it a bit clear what actually happened and tied up the end better~~
I would definitely recommend this show, it worths every second ~~
