Well, you can ignore this review, I just really need to rant about this show
I think this show had great potential, there were two very interesting concepts in it which made it intriguing to watch at the beginning.
In the first few episodes we meet the supernatural part, which makes the main character dream about deaths, which he tries to stop but always fails, except one time, after meeting a woman. It turns out he is connected to this woman in a very unfortunate way, when something good happens to him, something bad happens to her. The show also portrays in the first few episodes the heavy mental anguish the main character experiences due to this weird curse he bears. He feels more like an antagonist, and the reason for bad things happening, and he really hates it. It's very well acted out and conveys deep emotions, as well as the fateful meeting with this woman, a very special romance, that I really liked.
So this is all good, but then the writer decided to fuck it. The whole concept of the guy dreaming of a death and him and the woman going out to try to stop the deaths and find a connection between them is a great system for a crime show. Sadly this only happened TWICE. After that, again as I said, the writer decided to fuck it. After all this we start going down a rabbit hole. A big accident that connects EVERY main character, which already feels so weird, like very unlikely and just for the convinience for writing... And we meet a bunch of twists as for who the perpetrator is, which again, starts to get old, but whatever.
From here on out, we are only focusing on one case, for LOTS of episodes, and this case is actually not that complicated AT ALL... so the only hard part about finding out the details of this case, is just that it happened 20 years ago. Apart from that, there's really not much, and it's not even a deliberate murder, it's an ACCIDENT. Of course a possible murder is also connected to it, but I'll rant about that later. It's basically a hit and run, which IS shitty, but not a first degree thing at all, not planned, so really reallllllly simple, someone got in the car, another family got in the car and due to some issues they crashed, case shut. HOW ON EARTH CAN YOU INVESTIGATE THAT FOR 8+ EPISODES WHICH ARE MORE THAN 1 HOUR LONG?? Well, in very dumb ways. From here on out the writing is not clever and it even forgets for many episodes that our main guy's main interesting thing was that he dreams about deaths. Yep. We completely avoid this fact for a looooong time. Uh, like what? People don't wanna watch your shitty, badly written investigation on a simple car accident!!
Anyway, big spoiler: it turns out at the end, that the chairman's daughter caused the accident. Yes, a minor, not even an adult. So what does the chairman do? Imagine, a very rich guy's, young, minor daughter gets into an accident with another car filled with a family. Heeeere comes the quiz:
A: he calls an ambulance, maybe they can be actually saved and no deaths occur, just gotta pay a lot of money.
B: Maybe the parents are already dead, but this way they can't really testify who was the one at fault, so he can just pay a good lawyer and his MINOR daughter probably doesn't even go to any facilities at all.
C: Doesn't call ANYONE, leaves the scene, orders his secretary to get rid of the car, tries to manipulate his daughter's memories while she is shock that nothing happened, tries to murder the secretary to keep him quiet.
Yes, congratulations, OF COURSE IT'S C!! The dumbest idea EVER! Wow!!
So as you can see with just a little bit of thinking, it makes ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE what he does. It's the dumbest writing. Oh, but it doesn't end here.
So there is the thing about the scarf... oh my lord.
So there happened to be a scarf the daughter left on the scene of the crime, with the girl victim, who survived and turns out to be the main woman character, who actually puts the scarf away and still has it 20 years later. So what do they use this scarf for?? They think that it's a BIG evidence, pfff haha, bless their hearts. Thinking that it still has the victim's blood on it and probably the perpetrator's DNA as well, which they think to be the chairman. Like omg, this is such googoogaga writing it hurts. Let me make you understand. Taking an evidence like that to court without a proper police investigation... that's dumb, who on earth would believe it's real?? Also taking it to the police is ALSO dumb, because HOW on earth do you prove that any DNA that they find on the scarf got on it 20 YEARS AGO??? The blood is the woman's blood, which she can just put on it anytime she wants. And they might as well just could have planted the chairman's DNA on it, no one can tell when that happened!!! It's so duuuuumb, and they spend episodes fighting for that scarf like omg, it feels like I'm watching kids playing in kindergartennnn, the writing is so bad!!!
Like i'm not even gonna talk about the dad hiding for 20 YEARS while no one was looking for him, because his "murderer" actually thought he was DEAD??? pfff haha what?? what an IDIOT!!! leaving his family for that long, maybe he just really hated them after all omg!!!!!! SO DUMB!
So, dear writers, how about you stick to a good concept you came up with, the one that's actually interesting and a very new, fresh idea, and STICK TO IT???? phew. I'm really mad, because this really had potential, finally felt excited to watch a series, with an interesting idea, and was hooked on it for the first few episodes, it is such a bummer they screwed it up.
