A Time Called You

Six episodes in right now and this is a terrific show. Enjoying each one. I almost didn't make it past the first two tough, they were slow and confusing but it gets better incredibly fast. The acting is very good, writing is great, and the mystery is intriguing. Time travel here is done differently than I've seen before which is a good change of pace. As it's checking all these boxes it's also sets a theme that's important- being positive is a choice and your internal perception of the world can truly influence the energy of those around you and keep you from achieving the things you want in live. Worth the watch, give it a shot.

It is difficult to not compare this with the original but I watched it with an open mind. I did find this to be a good take of the original but it lost a lot of the great things the original have.

For me...

• It failed to build the solid and profound relationship between the male leads. It really wasn't as meaningful as the original.

• Things are more spelled out in this version. The dialogues explain what is going on. The original version on the other hand compels the audience to put the puzzle together because clues are definitely there. The audience becomes more of the mystery-solvers.

• Some of the characters, though existed in the original, did not play a role in the drama (ie. The brother)

• They reduced the adventures of the teens. The adventures of the original shows a before and after situation - and that changes the characters. Because this version had less of it, it is very weak in setting a distinction between two characters. The distinction was instead made in the dialogues (spelling it out)

I like that the drama stayed true to the original for the most part. But its weaknesses were the removal of the some of the greatest aspects of the original. There's a lot going for this drama, and it could have been better - it being a remake. It just didn't dig enough as profoundly as the original.

Wonderful balance between dramatic romance and mystery. Upon finishing watching this, I was really confused to the point I had to look up for reviews and explanations online to connect all the dots. It's complex and you must pay attention to every single scene after Ep 7 so you can understand the whole plot. There could be less plots though, because there were so many that you had to remember random scenes that happened like 3 eps ago to understand, but I know that was the whole point of the show. Antagonist was kind of unexpected. When I say to pay attention to the show, I mean it. It's easier to understand when you look at the story in Yeon Jun/Si Heon's point of view (something that the show doesn't primary offer since the show is based on Min Ju/Jun Here's perspective). If you're looking for a light drama, I wouldn't recommend this as it's complex and can have you thinking for some minutes to comprehend everything that's happening. As someone who was waiting for this drama for 2 months now, it really surprised me and it was really unexpecting as I expected something more light and more based on just a simple time-travel thing, but ended up watching a show full of plots. I'm not really a fan of mystery and complex k-dramas, but this was surprisingly good. Once you understand every single plot, it's way easier to comprehend the whole show. Good overall and it's worth watching.

Let me be honest. At first, I didn't plan to watch this k-drama, but I did because of Ahn Hyo-seop (I know you are not judging me for that, hahaha), and it was so worth it!

I agree with everyone who said that Jeon Yeo-been's (f lead) performance was outstanding. In that confusing and sometimes shocking time loop, I thought there were different actresses. She managed to play them all too well (like different ages, different people and still played by one person, bravo!)

The main plot as I said earlier was very confusing, yet in a very good way. A few times, I thought that I could predict something, and then everything was changing so quickly that my brain needed to use all of its resources to adapt to the new turns. On Ep.11, it all became overwhelming, and I started to look forward to seeing the final. I'm glad it's 12 episodes and not 16 or more.

While watching the drama, I had thoughts that if I wanted, I could find a lot of gaps or I would have a whole bunch of questions to writers, but I decided to enjoy the series, as sorry, but this is much better and rare than "King the land" or whatever.

Overall I did enjoy watching it. I think you will not regret watching it either.

I haven't seen the original, so will review it solely for this one.

It was an amazing show, the lead cast played their characters brilliantly, the chemistry between the two main leads was fabulous and probably was one of the reasons the show is good, as it makes you believe that yes the power of love can create magical things, goes beyond time.

It was an easy 9star , but the ending was rushed for me. Usually in kdramas they really stretch it out even when the plot doesn't demand it, but here it was very much needed and Netflix rushed things in the end, a more romantic, fulfilling end was needed for the main leads, but it just feels rushed and left me with a sense of incompleteness.

The music is good, all 12 episodes are beautifully shot, the script is tight amd there are no lags, no drags whatsoever.

A must watch show. Though I wouldnt recommemd it to those who haven't watched a kdrama yet and this will there first.
