amazing drama. for fantasy, slice of life and drama genre lovers, a must watch

i was pleasantly surprised by this drama. I started watching this drama only knowing the ML from romanced- so i cant describe to you my shock when i discovered there were 3 idols on the cast list? Nana and hyunsuk did absolutely amazing, especially hyunsuk- id love to see him in more dramas he plays his role so well. nana aces the main lead role well aswell, really embodying the character. Id say the romance in this is pretty good although this show is almost definitely not romance orientated (no hug or kiss). Plotwise, this show is perfect, my only criticism is at the end, some things go unexplained. i have my own theory that makes a lot of sense; all the characters live in the real world, but are transported into the novel universe in which time moves a lot faster than real life. Only some are conscious that they are in the novel (jebi, hanse)- the others think it is a dream hence their unawareness.

Honestly aside from the things about the novel universe that go unexplained and the lack of updates on the other characters at the end, this drama is almost perfect. Id recommend watching it.

GOOD WATCH- does not waste your time!!

This is the first 16 episode drama i’ve watched that i’ve thoroughly enjoyed each episode and time was not wasted in. This is the perfect bubbly romantic-comedy that does not stall 10 years for the main couple but still allows romantic development- each character is valuable to the plot in their own right and each arc is valuable to the story. It’s structured perfectly and my only critique would be of the subplot between the brother and the doctor- it’s boring and i skip it every time, but it’s easily skipped so don’t let it deter you. Overall this is one of the best mainstream romance kdramas i’ve watched and if you haven’t watched this it is a MUST-watch.

artistic movie

this movie was quite weird, but fun. i liked how it portrayed the lives and struggles of the two, whilst the worms thing being confusing, i think this movie portrays an interesting perspective on love. it kinda feels like love is supposed to be a glitch in the code, but it seems to prevail despite the bug being fixed - thats how i see it. nana komatsu's acting is amazing as always, and kento hayashi is perfect similarly. acting is good, music is good, cinematography is good. the movie kinda feels like a daydream, which i like. i think this movie explores love in an unconventional, beyond surface level manner, and breathes fresh air upon the clusters of conventional romance films.

literally flawless

watch this drama. it’s tear jerking, joyful, seat gripping, nail biting- quite literally everything.
i enjoy the plot- it’s complicated but perfectly understandable- it’s smart and well thought out. it lacks unnecessary aspects that other dramas have, instead every part of it is perfect. it isn’t rushed and instead goes at the perfect pace. the acting is amazing, specifically that of the leads. every character plays a perfect role and there are no loose ends hanging about. the depiction of the male leads development is incredibly detailed and realistic and his personality is definitively shown through his words and actions. this drama is just incredibly well done and it’s high ranking is well warranted. when i started watching this drama i didn’t expect it to be so good but in eventuality this is a drama you can watch at your own pace but your experience will be the same: you’ll find it to be one of the best dramas you’ve ever watched. i know i do!

best korean bl ever

this drama is so so good- i watched it in one sitting. 22:00 to 1:16- i watched it all. this bl is so good, it has the perfect balance of romance and plot- it correctly uses the plot to build the couples relationship and gives the perfect fluff to plot ratio. the main couple’s chemistry is AMAZING- and their relationship dynamic is to die for. they’re so adorable together and the way that this drama allows the mc to come out of his shell and begin to feel real emotion is so amazing. i also love how at the beginning he compares his feelings to the functions of a computer but at the end he abandons the analogy and accepts his feelings as they are- i love the small details of development. this director needs a raise because this plot was beautifully written and executed. every detail was perfect. i love this drama sm and the acting was amazing. best bl i’ve watched ever. watch it !!

Conveys plot and emotion beautifully

If i had to describe this drama in one word, it would be beautiful. I feel like this drama encompasses the beauty and simplicity of a plot which conveys pure emotion without over complications. The contrast between kiyoi and hira’s lives and lifeview but then the similarities are uncanny, and the almost unexpected romance between the two is so fascinating. I feel like you can’t really describe this drama in words and you have to watch it. The drama is the perfect length to perfectly portray the story and everything about this drama is perfectly done.
Really satisfying to watch and i really did enjoy watching this- the two have an unspoken connection that is beautiful to observe. Oh and the ost bangs.

GREAT WATCH!!! great balance of romance and storyline, satisfying ending !

this movie was AMAZING!!! i loved every second, from the happy smiles of the characters to the beautiful ending, this movie was such a good watch! the romance and plot balance was perfect and the chemistry between actors was so good that even when they weren’t doing anything you could feel the love and tension between them! i also loved the concept and the fl’s ideas about love and how she helps the ml to find himself and establish his own perception on love! go watch this, it’s a great watch for those who want to sit down with a hot drink and watch a bubbly yet mature romance movie!! (if you’re worried about it being childish don’t worry!! it’s not childish at all)

Don’t be put off by people saying it’s confusing.

Don’t be put off by the other reviews. Go for it, and watch this. It’s an amazing movie and will totally put you in the feels. Amazing acting, and amazing scenes. Strangely nostalgic and shows a passionate but short lived and messy romance. The ending is sad, but somehow comforting. Overall think that this movie shows good things don’t last forever. Also shows the female leads struggles with fame and her changing lifestyle, and the boys almost opposite free spirit and deep sense of longing to protect her. Acting is amazing, from both mains and you’ll definitely love this movie. also, search ‘million dollar man drowning love’ amazing video. million dollar man fits this movie perfectly, such an amazing song. if you want to decide whether to watch this or not, watch that video. it has some scenes. Have fun watching drowning love!

from a seasoned drama lover- this is just as good as they say

when i first encountered this drama, it seemed to me a typical romance drama that people had overhyped. i usually dont watch dramas involving time travel or anything similar either, so i was hesitant.
boy, i was wrong.
this drama is fabulous - each part of the plot is intricately mapped out and kim hye yoon and byeon woo seok's stellar chemistry is the cherry on top. the characters are lovable, the time travel element strengthens the bond between the main leads whilst simultaneously conveying real life emotions like nostalgia, heartbreak and gratitude.
not to mention my own personal reactions - i was kicking my feet and smiling at their romance and even let out some sly tears at their emotional reunion.
i like the aspects that each time travel results in different realities - by the end theyve experienced several realities together and somehow find a way to connect each time - this is truly beautiful.
i also have to shout out the comedy element - my favourite scene is when sun jae is zoning out and says something insulting whilst his friend is stealing his food and says 'i just wanted a bite...' - so many moments like these made me chuckle!!! i was laughing so much, it was really hilarious!!
i could nitpick, but honestly i dont think i can, ive had too much fun watching this drama, it was genuinely incredibly enjoyable.
dramas like these make me totally starstruck - as an INFP, i am guilty of being highly fantastical in my own head- their incredible romance makes me a little sad i cant have it in my own life.
WATCH THIS DRAMA!!!!! hopefully you will enjoy it as much as i did
everyone who worked on this needs a pat on the back, the director/s, cast and production crew, all personnel, everyone.

wonderful drama

I didn't expect to like this drama this much. It has a great cast, VERY unique premise and interesting and complex relationships between the characters. I like how almost all the characters are morally ambiguous - this is an accurate depiction of real life, in which morality isn't black and white, and every hero doesnt wear a cape and isnt perfect. I liked how even the worst characters (Ji-han aside, we all hate him) could develop and become a better person with the help of others. I think the romance left something to be longed for as it mainly focused on the supernatural connection between the two, which is important but i think there couldve been slightly more in terms of textbook romance, however the plot wasnt frustrating and angsty, and that i applaud since watching a romance that turns angsty mid-drama is like living hell on earth. My main qualm with the plot is the gwi-ju dying and then being brought back into present life by his son arc. Although the ending is good, it felt rushed and i often feel frustrations with dramas which spend more time showing the troubles and then once they resolve them, they leave you with five minutes to enjoy them. This drama did just that, only on the penultimate and final episodes, however. I REALLY loved hyeong-tae and grace's characters, they added a light comedy element to the drama whilst also balancing menacing and comforting personas. What i particularly loved was the scene in the penultimate episode, where the three girls essentially collaborate to destroy jihan and put their positions as frenemies aside. I smiled so much when i saw Dong-hee taking grace through the air and the three rejoicing afterwards - it was really heartwarming. I also enjoyed hyeong-taes soft protective gestures, and the way he made sure to keep everyone safe without their knowledge - this was honestly so sweet. I-nas plotline at school was not really of any interest to me and i found it rather boring and generic, but what i did enjoy was her relationship with gwi-ju becoming better, and her finding a mother figure and a friend in da-hae. This drama was a good watch and i would recommend it to others. Shoutout to choi Gwang-rok and ryu abel, i enjoyed their acting the most.
