Watch it for the CP and the production is beautiful.

I gave acting 9 mainly because of the main lead actor and actress. I'm happy with the ending. Honestly, I started watching this drama without any expectation of a good scripts, etc... because I has lost a lot of hope and genuine love for C-drama started when it gone down hill, years ago. I went in because I like Sebrina Chen and love the character she played this time. With that said, yes there are stuff still annoyed me and made me laugh to myself but overall, I don't regret watching it. And I am satisfied with that angsty, beautiful ending scene in the story when they both died lying under the snow and when they met again in reality or real life. Gosh, the scenes and the pair were beautiful. Often time I got caught off guard how good the cinematography was for a short series like this. Truly, Sebrina Chen and Quan Yilun's on screen chemistry was exploding, it carried the whole show. I am so glad both of them get to shine as leads in this mini series. Last but not least, I also like the ending in term of how it wrap up this rebirth concept of meeting your own self in the past and tried to change fate. Overall, I think this is entertaining and watchable if you don't take it too seriously or nip pick the common flaws it has because it is definitely worth it to watch it for the main CP. It would make you smile and have toothache or make your heart skips a beat. I would rewatch til ep. 18 and the last episode for the two endings. Some people may like ep. 19 but I think it's a bit cringed for me. Happy watching.

Great premise but...

I have seen the main actress in "The World of the Married" so I recognized her and I have to applause her for taking this role which is very different than her previous role and put her effort into this role but I still have to say that there is still something lacking her performance. I am not sure how to describe it. As the main character she didn't shine here being overshadowed entirely (to me) by Park Hee-soon (the actor who played Mujin-gang boss). But her acting was good in the scene where FL's dad came back and dying in front of her. I think she just needs more experience in badass fighting revenge girl role. There are a few actresses that I think would do better in portraying this character.

I love the premise and first episode but then my expectation went down hill because of plot holes and some nonsensical things and weird things that characters do that I don't understand why (I just don't want to spoil so I won't mention in details). I got both annoyed and entertained by these actually :)). I don't think the romance and the sex scene is needed and the ending is disappointed.

I wonder if the writer just want to show us a girl who can fight but not that smart except whenever she fight (because she has to otherwise how are we convinced that she win right? or she would just survive no matter what because she is the main character) and I don't like this kind of portrayal of women. I don't like how the way the writer write the FL and Mujin character. Park Hee-soon's stellar performance really leaves a deep impression in me not that his character is that attractive but the actor himself is the one who attracted me whenever he appeared when you watch it you will know what I mean and the actor Chang Ryul the one who played Gang-jae is also pretty good, too in my opinion.

Overall it is still good to watch tho because it is entertaining. Just don't expect great, deep and meaningful plot. Cinematography, ost is good. Fighting scene only a few is good.
