Odd writing or choppy editing

This story has the potential to be decent but there are major flaws in either the editing or the writing.

There seems to be scenes missing or situations that have been referenced but we never saw them happen. Even the leads getting romantically closer seemed to come out of no where because there was barely any build up or moments from them until all of sudden they were a couple!?

The time travel aspect isn’t written very well either. It’s almost as if it’s an afterthought and no one seems to question her behaviors.

The last failure would be in the 2 cases I have seen thus far. The details to solve the cases are choppy at best and a little reach. I grew up watching American shows like Law and Order, Criminal Minds, CSI, etc. I’m a fan of these sort of dramas but I find that with some of these historical case solving cdramas, they fall victim to having only far fetched murder cases. Becomes a little over the top. Not every thing needs to be a murder and not every case needs to be unrealistic. I will continue to watch to see if it improves but so far I’m not impressed.
