I wrote the review comment on what I felt after watching it, moved on with life and watched atleast 20 more dramas post that

It is a good one-time watch. Got little bored during the last few episodes due to the repeated nature of time loop.

Rated it 7/10.

Recently, I am trying to fast forward and skip portion of episodes to finish dramas that I don't like. Like 35th episode of this drama, I watched only 2 mins of it. But yes, I will try out your suggestion.

Unfortunately, I do not drop drama once started and have to finish them. There is no special reason other than my inability to abandon things.

Overall, this is a 7/10 drama which starts and ends as expected.

I did want to know if these fictional companies had HR at all. People are having affairs, fist fights, etc but none seem to have involved HR ever :)

I don't have much to say about the main couple but do have few things to say about 2ML. Dude character is not without fault and maybe annoying. But he deserved better than to end up back with that lady. Imagine someone saying 'do you think I only deserve a guy like him', infantilizing him, belittling his feelings as clingy and only to get back to her in the end. Talk about a shit ending to a decent character.

Is it really healthy relationship if they don't communicate at all and have to resort to dramatic kiss for solving every little problem?

This was not a good drama from start to finish and was boring. I fast forwarded most episodes as I wanted to just complete it and move on,

Rating it 5/10 only because some parts were watchable.

Satisfying watch. Drama has good binge worthy quality as I watched 12 episodes straight in a day. The middle portion was a drag and the full on melo, which didn't suit the styling of the rest of the drama.

Rating it 8/10

I like linear story telling instead of going back and forth past and present, flashback scenes, etc. We started in present for 2 episode and had 20 episodes straight in past, to explain us the story. This is a better choice than using flashback.

This would have been an 8+ drama had they cut few episodes of the college time and spent that time instead as adult storyline. The found family troupe of the second half was interesting and could have worked so much better with few more episodes. The way they introduced the conflict (revenge arc) was very sloppy. If you watch the intro song, you get the feel of Itaewon class but the revenge arc ended so underwhelmingly.

Rating this 7.5/10.

Title had nothing to do with the drama.

There is nothing much to say about this drama. This is like video game version of Playful Kiss. One of the playful theme music used in multiple episodes is straight lifted from a Tamil song. Fast forwarded last few episodes and I am glad that it is over.

Rating this 6/10

This drama could have been far better if they had chosen a consistent genre. It felt neither as comedy nor melo. Romance did not work as the leads felt more like neighbourhood friends rather than as partners. FL had nothing much to do in the drama.

Suspense was done well in my opinion. Background music was good but OST songs were not that great.

The question I had at the end was, once you are back from past to present and the present has changed, would you have new memories of the past or have old past memories or conflicting past memories?

All in all, not that great drama. Rating this 6.5/10.

The ending is after a year. There was an anime version 1 episode that explained what happened during that year. I watch it like 15 years back. I am hoping these are the right links.

This is my first Jdrama. So I don't know what to expect. This breakup felt misplaced.

I avoid saeguks due to their endings and I would not have watched this drama if not for the clip on Twitter where ML runs to save the FL. Parts of this drama definitely reminded me of 'Emperor of the Sea' for some reason.

The drama could have ended with the 10th episode and I would not have complained about. Last episode was usual Kdrama stuff where they throw kitchen sink, while not knowing how to end the story.

I liked part-1 more than part-2. Rated the part-1 9.5/10.
Rating the part-2 8.5/10

While I understand your explanation, it did not feel right. The breakup for his friend part did not work for me. It just felt random when I watched it. Maybe some more scenes showing his friendship with the ML, could have been more convincing, for the decision to make sense.

But that's just my personal feelings.

I can see why people might have been mad at the end of season-1. It did not affect me much because I know that this is 21-episode drama and not a 10-episode drama that leaves you baffled with its endings.

This is a perk of watching a drama after it completes airing. Rated season-1 as 9.5/10.

While people compare the characters with a different movie, I feel some segments of earlier episodes where a homage to 'Lord of the rings fellowship'. The four ladies escaping where the hobbits and the trio which included ML was Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli (one swordsman, one archer and one guy with a bat instead of Ax).

This was my first Jdrama and it was exactly what I had assumed from the synopsis.

There were some moving parts like I had never thought about the fact that sign language is just a language to communicate, assumptions about disability and how knowing to speak a language can't guarantee that the words would reach the other person.

Breakup by 2ML made no sense to me and was just weird on how it was dealt.

If it was a Kdrama, MLs sister and FLs brother would have ended up as a couple. The end of drama kind of reminded me of Summer Strike, where the drama is about romance but the leads hold hands only once right at the end and there is no kiss scene.

A good one time watch for sure. Rated it 7/10

Movie was good but feels rushed even when the plot is slow. I felt I should have watched the drama adaption instead of the movie.

Rated it 6.5/10

If someone hates this drama, they will ask where is the story? Very slow, cliche, too fake.
If someone likes this drama, they will feel so single.

I am used to and like watching slow burn dramas. So, I was fine watching this, as first 7-8 episodes is basically eating, staring at each other, etc. In my personal opinion, 'You are my glory' may have been a better title for this drama. And I liked the fact that the story ends where it begins - Red Fish.

Parting thoughts - No grand proposals and scenes could surpass the high that FLs confession/proposal scene had early in the drama. My Queen.

Rating it 7/10

Time is the best healer. But it is an interesting question if time would heal anything, if memories don't fade. Never had thought about this.

It's an interesting drama but it seems like the writer's only solution to every problem in life is breaking up. I lost count how many times they broke up and at some point I stopped caring. I would have rated drama 9/10 if the drama was brave enough to use the Psychiatrist main character to fill the required filler episodes instead of familiar pointless Episode-15 breakup and reconciliation.

This is still a beautiful story and a good drama. And yes, being able to forget is really a gift, which I had not realized before watching this drama.

Rated it 8/10.
