Great summary. Yup definitely the main core of the drama is finding the purpose of her doing all these things.But…
No problem. :)
If that is the case and they are in a game. But it might be something completely different at the very end, some sort of time travel BS and such things! lol
But if they are in a game the behavior of the Ghost definitely makes sense. I mean to kill whoever she likes, mess up the universe and the characters and then enjoying sweets like there is no tomorrow. I would have done the same if I had the chance. I mean eat all the sweets and whatever I like without worrying that I'll end up looking like a whale... ha ha haaaaaaaa
Great summary. Yup definitely the main core of the drama is finding the purpose of her doing all these things.But…
I didn't say that they figured it out. I'm just saying my own idea of what this Grid is probably all about and why the Ghost is getting in and out of that "world" that has the Grid. Those who are part of this "world" obviously don't know it. As for the killer he might be another player himself, or the character that is managed by another player. That explains why after he was locked up in the subway station he said "When I'll get out I'll kill you!" He might meant when he would be out of the game and while he said that she was drinking her coca cola with a very satisfied face! They are playing and she doesn't give a shit about what he says!
But this is my assumption. It might be something completely different.
I like the pace of this drama. I don't like dramas where the viewers know more than the characters because that spoils the plot and makes it boring. :)

The Grid is the concept of the game. The Ghost is a player and "moves" her characters into the concept of the game that is to save the world from solar flares etc.
The way she resets the killer and the way she gets in and out of the "world" gives me the notion that is probably a game or a simulation and the ML and FL characters are part of the game or the simulation ( something like the Matrix movies) but they don't know it.
It might be a virtual reality role playing game.
That is the reason why the Ghost has some very odd habits, eats sweets and drinks litres of Coca Cola with a smiling face at the most awkward moments.
She is playing and there are no moral inhibitions if she kills a minor character of the game like he did with the ML father. And when she managed after some attempts to lock the killer she then happily sat down ( inside the game) to drink five litres of coca cola something that she wouldn't be able to do in real life!
you don't understand art, so please stop reviewing it :D
Bah... it is not that I don't understand art, I'm a visual artist myself after all and quite successful in my country. It is that I don't understand why I have to consider as Art whatever is pretentious, draggy, incomprehensible or boring like hell. Real art is not pretentious and pretentiousness is not Art.
The king is naked in this particular case and someone had to point it out .

Excuse me but how can you give a valid review by having watched only the first episode?
They showed two scenarios for that train chase scene. In one scene murderer got caught and in another ghost helped…
I have the notion that the whole story is taking place in a RPG or a simulation. The Ghost is a player in a game and that is the reason why she can reset the killer whenever things don't go her way. She reset three four times the whole sequence of events when the killer tried to steal a wallet.
Great summary. Yup definitely the main core of the drama is finding the purpose of her doing all these things.But…
I have the notion that they are in a simulation or in a game and that the Ghost is the administrator of the game. I don't know if you noticed but the Ghost resets the killer when things don't go her way, She did so when he stole the wallet when she reset the whole sequence of events three four times and she did it again in the train.
When the killer was about to be caught she put him back in the train. So I think that they are in a RPG or a simulation and the Ghost is a player. That is the reason why she can reset and control the killer. It is her playing character or something like this. That is the vibes that I get anyway.
This drama reminds me a lot Mamoru Oshi's Avalon where the lead character's aim was to control the game, not just be the best player.
I enjoy a good thriller that continues to build up suspense and more questions every episode, I think it makes…
I agree. I really like this drama but I will not rate it yet because I want to see how they are going to develop the plot. But I really like that they don't reveal anything yet.
I believe that's what mystery suspense dramas are for, to play with the viewers' mind and the viewers must not…
Yes is they have a solid plot and not improvisations instead of a plot like in this case. It was so obvious that the writers were trying to retain the viewership with completely random twists that by the end of the 14 episode that I manage to watch, I didn't try anymore to figure out who was the culprit ( as all and everything were possible) but I didn't either care about the fate of the ML's character because the other characters were completely two dimensional caricatures of characters.
Chinese 5G I guess!! loooolIt is so fast that it bends even Time...! ha ha haaaaaaaI have a better question though.…
He was not driving on the bridge and they had already immobilize the bomber. He had already stopped because the bus had already pass over the barriers that inflated the wheels of the bus and the driver was trying to reverse it. Instead of going at the front or trying to prevent him with the police cars to reverse the bus, they could simply shot him on his legs through the glass driver's door, get in the bus from the shattered door, take the bomb and throw it from the bridge. If they had shot him they would have gained some more time in order to throw the bomb safely from the bridge. Generally speaking if the purpose of this drama was to "advertise" their police it failed. The police proved disorganized, untrained and useless in most of the loops even at the case where it had been warned in time. The policemen failed even to board on the bus in loop before the final one. They were looking so obviously like policemen that the bus driver detected them and didn't stop at the bus stop at all! Also which sane policeman gets into a bus that has a bomb? Negotiations and dealing with bombs are supposed to belong to different police divisions, and they are supposed to be trained for this job.
It seems that the Chinese police is there more to intimidate the citizens than protect them. It is full of surveillance and not results!
Chinese 5G I guess!! loooolIt is so fast that it bends even Time...! ha ha haaaaaaaI have a better question though.…
They had plenty of quarrels and delays before the red light on a good number of loops. The bus stop after all where the guy with the mask boarded on the bus, was before the red light. So on the loops that they tried to see what this guy was doing after boarding on the bus they quarreled and they delayed in some cases. But the accident didn't happen.

Generally speaking this drama is full of plot holes and stupid scenes. Most of the characters looked really dumb. Why the time loop happened in the first place and why happened on the MLs only? At some point I thought that they would have been able to drag in the loop the guy with the mask but this was not the case for him though it was for He Yun.
Then the MLs behaved like idiots. They changed plan on its and every loop instead of rework their most successful attempts to stop the explosion. They managed f.e to beat the bomber's head on the bus pole in front of her something that caught her by surprise. He Yun was behind her and pushed her hard in order to stop her from pulling the trigger. They could have push her even harder in the next loop but they didn't.
Also they didn't attempt to throw her out of the bus on the bus stop. They had plenty of time to warn the other passengers knock her out, grub her just before the bus stop and throw her out of the bus but they didn't.
Same idiots were the policemen who instead of shooting the bus driver, they tried to stop the bus when it reversed on the bridge by pushing the bus with their cars ( like this is even possible!)
Why didn't they shoοt the car driver? They didn't have to kill him. Just stop him. They could have shot him on his legs though the glass doors. But nooo.. they went to the front and to the back of the bus and the sides like the glass doors were not that good of an option for them.
I just had 1 question about the last episode, to clear my mind hehe. How did LSQ got the picture of evidence from…
Chinese 5G I guess!! looool It is so fast that it bends even Time...! ha ha haaaaaaa
I have a better question though. Does anyone know at which exact point the bus and its passengers stopped dealing completely with the street intersection accident?
Up to the fourth fifth episode and the 9th -10th loop ( I've lost the counting ) the bus collided with the tanker car and then the bomb exploded. But this was not anymore the case as soon as the MLs realized that there was a bomb in the car. Then the bus stopped colliding with the tanker and they had to deal only with the bomb on the bridge ( or before it, depending on their actions).
Yes but it is not necessary to take it so seriously either. If you're crying your eyes out for each and every drama then what are you going to do if something really bad happens in your real life?
They are not real and it is not good for your eyes to cry for imaginary characters even if you feel attached to them. You are actually sobbing for no real reason and though you might feel that it is relieving, you end up being moody and you are spoiling your day. And trust me that is not the point of watching a movie or a drama. Smile instead of crying. :)
If that is the case and they are in a game. But it might be something completely different at the very end, some sort of time travel BS and such things! lol

But I might be completely wrong.
The Ghost btw reminds me Mamoru Oshi's Avalon where they were into a game and they were running after a Ghost character.
