This drama has all, comedy, drama, sci-fi, action, suspense and many travels through time. This drama will make your head spin too much. One of the best of this year 2020. I love the actors too.

The first-half & the second-half of this show are so drastically different in presentation & story-telling, that i feel inclined to seperate the review & rating for each part. The first-half is very interesting & has good-character development. I genuinely felt interested in the plot, and the excellent chemistry & unusual attraction between the lead male & female characters. The show keeps a decent pace & spark through this phase & recieves a 9/10 from me.

Now the second half was where everything fall apart. The director was trying to be unpredictable, and ends up ruining his own introduced concepts & relationships. There is an excess of dislikable plot-twists & things just don't seem to go in the right direction anymore. There are also plenty of goofs & obvious plot-holes present. This phase recieves a disappointing 7/10 for me.

Overall, i could even it out at 8/10, but the second-half left a poor after-taste in my mind, and hence, i cannot overlook it. This show had a lot of potential, but the director screwed it up for me. At least the ending isn't too bad, but left me wanting more.

I created an account just to talk about this show. The premise is interesting, but what let's the story down is the dumb & illogical decisions made by these supposedly super smart people. I'm only half way through so will see how it goes

This is an unusual series. I was not disappointed with this series at all. It was built around a prophecy that added that fantasy element that I enjoy a lot. What was most intriguing about this series is the question it asked regarding the relationship between the two leads Joo Won and Kim Hee-seon. Since this series used time travel as the main driver for the events, you'll definitely be left with a question that you never came across before. Even the writer himself was very careful or, in fact, uncapable of coming up with one. I believe that hurt the story a lot. You can easily feel how unwilling the writer was to give an answer and pretty much left it open even at the most important part of the series THE ENDING.

A book called the prophecy tells how time travel is bought to a halt and this means people from the future need to get the book to prevent this. The main cast are a scientist and a policeman who both have a parent murdered whilst they are young, linked to a time travelling company called Alice. It is a well acted and clever drama with twists and turns and a complicated plot involving different dimensions. I am sure some time travelling purists will pick holes in the science behind the plot but to me it is a bit like astronomy in the fact I cannot get my head around it but do enjoy the ride.
