seriously nok su??!!! i can't believe i actually liked her in the beginning..... ep 27 was so traumatizing WHAT THE HECK!! my face is swollen and I'm trying to catch my breath because of how hard i cried and was traumatized. how hard must it been on ga ryung. that look when she found out that gil dong was alive, it was so heartbreaking you could feel her utter regret that she is going to be used against them, she was desperately trying to kill herself. or that scene where she bit the king gave me goose bumps. she is my favorite character.
mo ri i have faith in you please do something!!
the drama was kind of messy at first and it kind of made no sense especially because of the random flash backs but all is starting to come together and ITS SO GOOD the script is quite tight!!
signal, reply 1988, dear my friends. I've seen many tvN dramas and i could surely say its my favorite network and it produces THE BEST DRAMAS, the quality of their dramas is insane and even if you showed me a screen with the drama only and no logo on the screen i would be able to tell that its tvN. i loved all what I've seen from them (with the exception of entourage) and its really tough to rate them but signal is easily my #1 drama of all time and the ones i mentioned along with it in the beginning of my comment are my favorites.
that channel really stands out lately, especially that public main channels are quite crappy with their quality and they don't stand a chance along tvN, thats a good thing because we can see the competition and main channels are finally starting to amp up their game.
am i the only one annoyed by kwang ho's ridiculously chill reaction to the fact that he is stuck in the future? he's acting way too cool for the situation he's in.
even though i wasn't as emotionally invested in this as i should or as i thought i would be, i liked this show quite a bit, dark gritty shows with a depressing vibe always seem to grab me in, also because of jehoon despite his hair cut that i thankfully got over. lets not get into the directing too much as i am quite a nerd in that department and i probably won't stop talking about it, to keep it short this was definitely a piece of art directing/editing/shooting wise- the colors and the over all theme really suited the drama. the plot was pretty intriquet and was well executed considering how confusing it could have possibly turned out, it would seem like it didn't make any sense but you HAVE to watch it ALL and focus on every thing because there are little scenes here and there that are pretty crucial to understand the future and what was going on, you also need to have a clear understanding of the time-traveling logic the plot is based on. in the midst of the time-travel trend going on in drama land this drama stands out as the whole time-travel aspect of it was very different which makes this drama unique and distinct from the others.
not gonna lie, there were some things that were very annoying about this drama like some decisions made by the main characters but you can get over that as k-drama is still a k-drama.
im torn between a 7.5 and an 8 but i settled on an 8/10.
the first episode was good, it heavily reminded me of signal: the instrumentals, and something about park kwang ho's character screamed ''lee jae han"to me and he even ends up crushing on and loving yeon sook which was played by the same acctress who played jae han's love interest, what a coincidence!
whats with all the negative comments suddenly emerging?!... if you don't like it fine don't watch it, but don't ruin it for someone who might be considering watching.
amazing shows always end up being either a total hit or miss, personally I'm one of many people whom LOVE this show,it has an intricate plot, unique vibe, great cast and captivating directing. you may think its boring but i think the pacing is just right, if it was more thrilling from ep 1 and every thing happened fast; you would be complaining about plot holes and lack of build up, and wouldn't be able to connect with the characters. the story HAD to go on that way!
i totally agree with this article. i always thought of marathoning as a tough chore to be honest, even though most people think watching ongoing dramas is the chore. when i find a completed drama that i desperately want to watch, i almost never have the time to marathon because even if i started marathoning i know at some point ill have to stop, and picking the drama up again is really tough and it just breaks my chain of thoughts and emotions i developed while watching and that ruins the experience for me. but when i marathon a REALLY good but REALLY short drama and i finish it in a day or two i just feel empty and regret not watching it when it was currently airing. also marathoning narrows the amount of dramas you could be watching because you're fully engrossed in one drama, but when your watching currently airing ones you could be watching 5 dramas at the same time by only watching 10 episodes a week 2 per day and nothing on the weekend or what everyday you can't watch at, now thats good time management !!
and the most important thing of all NO SPOILING could possibly happen because no one knows whats going to happen yet. when I'm contemplating about starting a completed drama i tend to search heavily and read reviews and posts and i always manage to catch some type of spoiler so i put the drama off for a while hoping to forget the spoiler and i end up forgetting about watching the drama all together.. lol.. i just came to realize how passionate i am about watching ongoing dramas.....
