Turn your brain off and enjoy
I came into this drama with no expectations and without reading any spoilers (very rare these days. )That said... I.Love.This.Drama! Perfectly balanced- action with light humor, romance with the right amount of angst, great villains, greater but vulnerable heroes. No bloated episode count keeps the episodes tight. Action and times of tenderness and friendship keep the drama moving without unnecessary plot points. I will re-watch again and again. Was it perfectly perfect? No. But in the high 9 range. Were there some cringey effects? Yes, but not too many. Well done drama crew and actors! Thanks subbing team!!Was this review helpful to you?
Lighter Costume Drama
This drama starts out a bit shaky, in my opinion. The FL is portrayed as a very sheltered, very spoiled young woman. You soon find out the reason for this- self reliance. Some may see her self-confidence as annoying, but I see it as her strength. Our ML begins to see this too. And so begins the growth for both characters. Are there misunderstandings on the way? Yes. Did both handle things on their own because they were used to being on their own? Also yes. Did either of those things drag episode wise? Only one, which brought this down from a perfect 10. Well balanced emotionally, consistent growth of all characters, nice music, good story, sweet romance. Bonus for solid lip-locking! Turn off your brain and enjoy.Was this review helpful to you?
Could be stand alone but better if One and Only watched first
The sweet sequel to "One and Only" was just what I needed after binge watching that. This drama feels like an intermezzo between heavier drama courses in my daily watching diet. Lighter for the watching palette, this drama bring our fated couple back together with answers to all our main couples questions and regrets.The drama did a fantastic job of tying ancient to modern while focusing on a new story. Previous characters, other than our leads, found themselves also reincarnated, which I appreciated. I enjoyed the more mature romance with little misunderstanding and adult conflict resolution. Of course there is always one, or three who may through a wrench. After all, this is a drama, and not all lifetime baggage is resolved with each incarnation.

Hold onto your hats and bring tissues
I was looking for a good old fashioned soapy drama, and this is it! Great cast, fantastic chemistry. That said, it felt a bit too much soap, and was WAY too much drama. It stayed in its lane and delivered. Just be in the right mood for angst, a double back flip with the plot, and prepare to have your heart ripped out.Was this review helpful to you?
