I called it 3 episodes in that the time traveling rules of this kdrama was bad, people called me a hater T_T Too much paradoxes. In any case, no more time jump anymore so SJ really doesn't remember and what's even the point ? If they give us something like "oh he started having flashbacks of things he never lived" or something, I'm out.
So why did his watch reset to 3 tries again? Plot device?I'm getting tired of this time jumping. Now there's a…
The thing is, his watch is the present watch from episode 1 that already had 3 chances. So the first time travel of Im sol gets erased since she used it in episode 13. What's up with that
I watched that episode in 20mn, obviously he's not dead, it was her last chance to save him, they wouldn't have let him die just like that so the plot twist really wasn't one for me. Now we're gonna have another episode of them "not knowing each other" or whatever despite them getting together in the present and in the past.
Either he still has a crush on her despite what she did and it's back to square one or he doesn't and it's still back to square one because they'll have to get to know each other exept we already did that (and I'm honestly not interested in their RS if SJ doesn't have his share past with IS). Im sol using her the first chance of past SJ's watch should erased the first time she time traveled no ? How are they going to explain that ? He already died in episode 13, they better not make him a time traveler, tf is he, a zombie ?
The plot is fine but they are dragging it to fit 16 episodes which is not necessary and annoying. Also Im Sol acting like a 30yo in the present but a 18yo in the past when she's 30 in the both cases bother me.
Finally watched it, it was good, but I don't think it's a 9+. But then again the experience is always different when you watch it in one go and when you have to wait every week for it. The last episode was very rushed like most kdrama these days. It makes no sense to put past+return to present+present in just one episode. I'm left with many questions.
I, too, think that I will have to read the book now, as it was mentioned in some article that screenwriting left…
That's the thing, we show him old but Toranaga said he didn't think the Anjin would ever leave Japan. I think Toranaga was right and old Anjin is a dream.
I don't mind the ending mainly because I don't mind stories where you zoom on someone's life to only show a bit of it instead of the whole thing. The show started at the point in Toranaga's life where the regents decided to unify against him and the story really is about weither he'll live or die. I got my answer. I never saw the Anji as the main character, so I never minded him not being on screen most of the time, he was just someone who so happend to have been captured. He thought he could be helpful to Toranaga, we thought so too, but Toranaga never said so (unless I remember wrong). It was like a slice of life, I did expect more but I'm fine with where we stopped. Lady Oshiba switched side, end of the story. We live and we die. I don't think the Anjin left Japan, at least not in the show. Mariko was everywhere throughout the episode, her name didn't need to be spoken but she was there at every turn, I loved it. Glad that this ends right after Yabushige's death, I really liked his character, he always cracked me up, even in the way he begged to die lol. I might read the book now.
Could the reason why she acts quite childish with SJ be because :1/partly she wants him to enjoy life. As far…
Perhaps. Or maybe the writers might have just wanted to have the cute FL and the cute ML being cutely in love with each other and it's just that and we're complicating something that's just meant to be a cute romcom haha

Those are good points but they erased the 30yo too much that it feels like she is a different person when she is with him, as in a whole other human being. There's a clear break when he's here and when he's not. It's probably a me a problem haha, but yeah it does bother me a bit.
Since Sol will be back in the future after the accident/taxi driver thingy the old Sol won't remember anything…
Honestly the whole not remembering thing is confusing. How do you have a whole life you don't remember.... that you then remember later on ? Futur IS will remember everything that past IS doesn't, that doesn't make sense. I don't even know how they'll built their RS in the future unless IS stays in the past.
I'm not liking this stalker killer taxi driver sub-plot at all. Just why?
Because they love to add pseudo thriller-mystery to romance shows that can't sustain 16 episodes on it's own, because the story is too basic. They looove to do that.
I'm not gonna lie, writing episodes around miscommunication in big 2024 is embarassing. It's like the easiest plot drive possible, be better, it's just ridiculous, I agree with QD28.
Why does Im Sol act like a 30yo with Tae Sung but like a dumb teenager with Seon Jae. Don't tell me about "he's her idol", they've known each other long enough now that it's no longer an excuse. Especially since she's been treating him like a friend, even if she has a crush on him.The goldfish eyes and round mouth like ?? It's like two different persons. I'd like to see her be a 30yo back in her teenage years even with her crush. Maybe it's to not show a noona RS? There is no reason for SJ to not be an immature 19yo after all, why would a 30yo fall for a 19yo ? Idk. Men do it all the time you might say lol. But men are trash.
Also please, getting out of the house the day of your accident to get him an umbrella ? Risking your legs so that he doesn't get wet ? Come on.
The time traveling will get even messier, wonder how they'll explain everything. Will she remember a new life in the future, the one that she has lead as a walking person, on top of her first life?
Too much paradoxes. In any case, no more time jump anymore so SJ really doesn't remember and what's even the point ?
