A Love Story for the Ages
He is willing to die as many times as it takes just to keep her safe, and she is willing to sacrifice even her own happiness if it meant he could live even just one more day.This drama is the definition of a romance for me. Sure there's fantasy, and comedy, and some family stuff, some thriller and action. But more than any of that, this is the story of 2 people falling in love and loving each other, no matter what timeline they may find themselves in. A love so good you just find yourself kicking and squealing and rooting for our leads so hard.
It starts off like what the synopsis says - a fan travelling back in time to prevent her ult from dying. But by the end, you're not even rooting for the fan to get together with their idol. You're rooting for the boy next door to finally get the girl.
It's been a few weeks and I still can't get enough of this drama. My suggestion for anyone who's debating watching this is to just try it. Watch until at least episode 2 because if you're not hooked within the first 10 minutes of episode 1, maybe that's where it'll get you. I know I was.

Can't get over the show
It have been a long time since I felt so attached to a show like this. This show me feel all kinds of butterflies. The cast chemistry is out of this world. I know it's shallow. But i am lowkey shipping the actors as well. I have watched all of hyeyoons dramas. And I am always amazed by her passion and hardwork.i thought she was a topstar.. but I was disappointed to know that she still struggled getting projects. I really hope she achieves whatever she pursues. I don't think I have ever rooted for an actor like this before(except for ikon , seventeen and BI). I know k actors don't repeat being seen together.but i really can't wait to see them together again. Wooseok really shined as sunjae. I really hope they work together again. Wooseok must be an outstanding actor of he isn't in love with Hye toon.I mean those eyes chiko... They don't lie.

WHY ARE YOU FINDING LOW RATED REVIEW THERE IS NONE !!
Let’s take a moment to thank the cast and team behind this amazing show, which has managed to win our hearts for the past eight weeks. After everything this show went through to reach us, its success is even sweeter.Im Sol and Sun-jae finally got their happy ending. It was a good call for the writers to make the last episode solely about their happiness. There were no eleventh-hour villain stories. They allowed us to see SolJae thrive in their couple era and gave us a glimpse of their wedding. It was the perfect way to end this iconic show.
Everyone got their happy ending and our never-ending theories can finally be put to rest. Let us know what are some of your favorite moments from the show. We now officially bid a bittersweet farewell to our beloved characters as Lovely Runner takes its final bow, receiving a well-deserved standing ovation.
Lovely Runner: The positives
What a remarkable journey Lovely Runner has been! Each moment of the show feels like a blessing on our screens. From its humble beginnings as an idol-fan romance time-slip series, it has taken us through a myriad of tropes and timelines, imparting lessons on love, grief, healing, fate, and so much more.
Let's pause to express our gratitude to the cast and crew behind this incredible show, which has captured our hearts over the past eight weeks. Despite the challenges it faced in reaching us, given its production and casting issues, its success is all the more rewarding.
Each and every character in the show was amazing, from Sol and Sun Jae to their families, friends, Tae Sung, and even our villain. Each character received a well-deserved ending, and each character with their plots brought a perfect balance to the show.
The decision not to drag out the villain's plot and to resolve it within the 15th episode added to the excitement of the finale, allowing us to focus more on witnessing SolJae as a couple.
Their antics as they attempted to date in secret, Sun Jae's unwavering supportiveness as a boyfriend, and Sol finally achieving her dream were all highlights of the series. Additionally, Tae Sung deserves the 'Best Second Lead' trophy of the year for his portrayal as the perfect friend and Im Sol's second lead. From saving Sun Jae to catching Young Soo, he truly did it all!
Lovely Runner: The negatives
The show delivered a multitude of tropes and stories all at once, offering a refreshing break from the tired clichés often seen on screen. However, now that the series has come to an end, fans are left with bittersweet goodbyes.
While we were never fully enlightened on the true reason behind Young Soo's persistent interference in Sol and Sun Jae's destiny, it's perhaps a blessing in disguise that the show wrapped up swiftly without unnecessary dragging.
The ambiguity surrounding Sol's grandmother, whether she is a time traveler or not, too is a drawback as it was never resolved. Her possession of the watch and the meaningful conversation she had with Sun Jae suggest she may indeed have a role in their story. Despite a few unresolved elements and minor loopholes, the series couldn't have been more perfect, making farewells all the more difficult.

The Hilarious, Angsty, Romantic and yet Non-Toxic Drama of this Decade
This drama is no short of getting 10s in every aspect!Firstly, a huge round of applause and immense appreciation for Kim Bbang, author of the book Tomorrow’s Best. Thank you writer-nim for bringing this beautiful novel into existence because who knows if there would be a loose adaption of this book if you hadn’t written this.
Secondly, the director, scriptwriter, actors, and team, take a bow for stringing together an amazing and enchanting yet detailed narrative that blended romcom, angst, and thriller so beautifully that it managed to always keep the audience on the edge in every episode.
Things that I loved the most in this show [because I don’t have any dislikes for LR!]:
- RSJ was just a boy next door who IS ignored in her original timeline, which made this show instantly different from others. For once I was glad here the guy wasn’t the school/college hunk whom every girl fawned over. It was a coincidence how many of us subeoms never noticed BWS playing insignificant characters[I didn’t notice him until 20th Century Girl!]
- The show proves that audience are craving for non-toxic, positive male leads who don’t just shout and act like they don’t care but then suddenly there’s a change in their character midway. I love the Green Forest RSJ and wish to see more MLs like him. BWS is effortlessly funny and pulls every version of SJ from a school going kid, to a college-goer, to an idol and an actor flawlessly
- KHY did a wonderful job of portraying a fan girl and a lover. I was skeptical about how they would portray IS once she fell in love with SJ, but the transition was beautiful. I loved how KHY brought out the side a fangirl has, the madness, the need to keep up with their idol’s life, and then the devastation of seeing their idol pass away prematurely. Her powerful acting made the transition easy, and when IS lost SJ as her lover, the emotions were completely different.
- The lewserism that SJ oozed is such a treat. It’s not cringey or overdone but done in the right amount. Oh, he is MinMin’s descendant I tell you lol.
- The supporting actors were equally good, especially Baek Inhyuk. I am glad they managed to squeeze in his backstory. Actually, despite less screen time, almost all characters have a good backstory [IDC about taxi driver]
- Special thanks to Gonghee, he is one of the BEST SMLs there is. He wasn’t clingy or even someone who wanted to create misunderstanding. He was there as a supportive friend to the FL even when she was time traveling.
- This show has little to zero misunderstandings and I loved it. I am so glad that there were no severe arguments or fallouts. This show managed to squeeze as many tropes in romcom as can be and still managed to balance them out to not overwhelm the audience.
- The parallels that were shown were so beautifully and seamlessly blended, different yet the same but never boring.
I am so so glad to be a part of this drama while it was on-air. While I am sad, I am also happy that it just pulled off so well. I will miss the madness and obsession I had with this show. Never have I ever been this unhinged over a drama. The theories, the comments, and everything, I will miss this! This show is even more special because of its organic success! The way fate aligned the stars to make this happen is sometimes astonishing. From it being shelved for 3 years because actors rejected the script, BWS taking it up, to no PPL because no one had hope for this drama, not even TvN, and YET this drama emerges victorious, delivering top-notch content from excellent acting to direction to cinematography. Everyone associated with the drama deserves the praise and fame they are getting. Thank you, LR for giving me a wonderful 2 months. Thank you for keeping me hopeful when my life had suddenly gone haywire. I am going to rewatch this show again.

Changing their destiny while finding their promised one.
The series isn't bad at all, if you're a fan of typical rom-coms, it's perfect. The series reminded me a lot of "True Beauty", from the execution of the acting to the characters themselves, so that tramples a little on the originality. I picked up the series because it was trending and the script seemed interesting.The story is cute, and I liked it to pass the time, not too heavy, fun and romantic. The conundrum of changing the future while finding the person who is destined for us by random coincidences on their path (but are they really coincidences ?). Basically two people who fight for each other to survive the tragic events of their lives. It's touching.
This is my first time seeing Kim Hye Yoon as main lead, apparently she has appeared in other series that I have seen as guest but never stood out to me. Not much to say, she did her job but I wasn't overly impressed by her acting.
Byeon Woo Seok is another matter, I remember seeing viral clips of him during his series "Strong Girl Namsoon" (which I haven't seen) typically because of his good looks, I wanted to see if he had more to show and I think that is the case. He's blowing up as an actor, I think it's just a matter of time before he's offered roles more versatile than the boyfriend or good looking villain.
I honestly recommend this series, it's chill and enjoyable.

Cringey
I decided to check out this drama because of the high ratings. But, OMG. I couldn't get passed episode 2 and had to give up. It was so cheesy and cringe.It's just your typical Kdrama where the female lead is soooooo optimistic, despite having a disability problem.
Female lead is so irritating and scenes are cringey. Omg!

Don't understand the hate in the comments?
I went into this drama based on the 9.0 score it has on MDL, but was a little dubious because the written reviews were so bad... it almost made me not watch it.This drama is a great watch, a nice script/story that maybe deserved better execution, but all in all, what's not to enjoy about our leads?
They had chemistry, they acted well, their storyline was good... what is so wrong?
Well, I'm not going to lie, there are quite a few plot holes, the time travel could have been done a lot better.... The killer, coming out of nowhere and following through time was really badly done, but the essence of the drama, the connection between 2 people who love each other, and always find ways to bump into one another regardless of the year (back or forward) was a nice watch.

It's like you are are watching 2016-2017 era of kdrama. The ML actors & FL actress had a perfect chemistry in off cam/on cam. The cinematography and the OST is perfect.
They deserve the recognition and blessings because they worked hard for this drama. Also the directors, writers and staffs big applause for them.
P.s anyway we have different opinions, so should respect each other☺️

in my opinion best kdrama
This drama is an incredible blend of romance, comedy, and, most importantly, action. From the very first episode, I was completely hooked and couldn’t stop watching. In fact, I’ve already watched it three times, and each time, it feels just as thrilling as the first. I wish more dramas were this captivating, drawing me in so completely. This one has undoubtedly become my all-time favorite. I love all the actors and the chemistry they share, which makes every scene come alive. It’s truly a masterpiece!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
