That is the whole point, That is also the title of the series, so the criticism contradicts the title.There is…
But what good side plots, friend etc do? Isn't it a distraction? And their jobs and hobbies are explored, you don't need irrelevant colleagues to explore something deeply. But I agree about the plot not plotting, altough for another reason: the flashbacks are great for vibe and mood, but at sime point you need a significant conversation, or confusion in memories, it's too straightworward and surface level, I'd prefer more nuance to Wataru's feelings or Minato's decision to leave
Korea needs to stop producing this 8min Bls they are too short, most of them their storyline doesn’t even make…
On the contrary, we have long format bls thanks to these low budget indie series. Maybe you're new to this or unlucky with bls you choose - there are some great short bls, it's not like long length guaranties proper direction or chemistry
The writing is LAZY and illogical, the actors are actually great. I dropped it 2 times, only to pick it up at ep 6, but fortunately I saw a spoiler and realized it's not even worth watching for the second couple's story, they managed to mess up the only thing that made sense. I wish both couples find a better project.
Am I the only one who wishes the synopsis didn't spoil the premise, there weren't such big time skips and they would actually how signs of scam and let us try to piece things together? It could still turn out really interesting, but st this point feels like such a waated potential
The scene in ep 6 was SO REALISTIC, the subtext, the dialogue was perfect. And I'm glad Jimmy closed the door behind himself, it was too risky, knowing Run's intentions. That would make Jimmy's redemtion arc impossible
It's easy to hate on Jimmy, BUT: -He has an avoidant attachment style, he's egocentric and is used to lying to avoid communicating, and doesn't fear consequences -Toh has anxious attachment style, lacls personal boundaries and actually also crosses Jimmy's boundaries (arriving to his house unannounced at night during exams, and even letting himself in, without knocking)
Basically they're incompatible and it's much more complicated than Jimmy being a villain and Toh being a victim
I find Toh quite interesting and endearing. It's his first relationahip and he doesn't have a "proof of Jimmy cheating", so he puts up with it for now. Jimmy should have a long period of suffering and begging
I'm at epidode 8 and it's totally a wasted potential. I've never seen such a useless main character as Win. Writing is really bad, nothing alnost happens because of his lack of agency. Compared to time travel series like Triage, Reset or Be my favourite, this lacks both plot and chatacter development.
I'm 4 episodes in and really like it so far, except Win's character is insufferable— he acts as if it's a usual thing to go back in time, and what is worse he doesn't even behave like a 44 year old man who turned 17 suddenly, he lacks maturity or determination to change things.
NOT A SPOILER REALLY, BUT JUST IN CASE:
He knows how in July 1998 Nut was already diagnosed, but currently in October 1998 he just keeps asking Nut if he's really healthy, as if Nut hadn't kept it a secret before. And days later he acts like a kid at hotel's reception. Didn't he know as an adult that test results won't be disclosed that easily? Who in their right mind would go there without a plan or a sob story ready? And what is so hard about involving a "proper adult" into this situation just to get Nut check up up again and receive treatment. Since he remembered and allegedly loved Nut 27 years later, one would expect him to take things more seriously and showcase more urgency. I enjoy the show more when I try to forget he's a grown person with the knowledge of the past, because as an actor he's actually quite good and makes a great teenager character riddled with doubts and uncertaibty
