Summer in Love (2023)

Interesting time-travel themed short show with food for thoughts

This is an interesting short show. The storyline starts off quite simple but soon gets more complicated since more than one person goes back in time. I see this show as trying to play with “What if…” in the sense that these people get a chance to see what happens if they make other decisions now than they did back then. Quite an interesting thought that I think many of us have had at some point in life.
Character wise:
We have this sweet and kind FL who is abused by her husband and commits suicide but is somehow given the chance to go back 10 years before she chooses the wrong person to marry.
We also have this nice and caring ML who is drugged and tricked into marrying a woman he doesn’t like who also commits suicide. He also gets the chance to avoid his miserable life.
The two of them were in love back then so now they get a chance to be together. Will it be possible to live another life and be happy, or is the life they ended up in really their unchangeable destiny? That is what this story gives us a take on.
Acting wise this is pretty good and the actors portray their characters well within the limited timeframe.
So, if you like a good time-travel/dimension-travel story - with a satisfying ending - this is actually well worth watching.

Pretty good for a mini show

If you look around on youtube you can find the entire series compiled into one 2 hour movie length video.
It's actually pretty good for a short format drama even if it isn't a blockbuster, it's still worth the watch.
The plot is a pretty common idea: What if you could go back to a pivotal moment in your life and make completely different choices? Don't we all think about that from time to time?
What I like about this is that our FL decides from the moment she arrives to change things and goes from being meek and put upon, to being strong and fiery AF. She's seen what her future looks like, she doesn't like it, and she's going to make sure it changes for the better!!
