• Great until the parts set way in the past get an increase in screen time.
• Singing scene.
• Little Star.

• Honestly this was a 10 until the last 2 episodes, that time skip was rough.
• I love how dramatic the teacher is.
• My favorite part was probably when her mother sees the bullying video, I always love stuff that makes me cry.

• Honestly perfect.

Finished on April 22, 2024  

• I did like the main couple and the plotline about the main guys mother but there's far too many unlikable characters in this that take up too much screen time.
• I liked the parents finding out what gangnam beauty means after happily thinking their daughter was being complimented.
• There's a scene where a cover of You've Got a Friend in Me from Toy Story is playing in a restaurant.
• Every time I started to really enjoy it, in comes Soo Ah to be annoying.
• Soo Ah is insufferable, 13 episodes in they start to give her a back story and a dramatic stalker plotline but after 13 episodes of her being an asshole to everyone it was hard to care.

• I went into this expecting a good, sad romance, but I didn't really like the romance itself. Especially since they barely even interact in the second half (plot wise I understand why, it just doesn't make for a very good romance, it's hard to care when he just ignores her for the second half).
• The only time I came close to crying was at the mother's reaction to it all in the last few episodes.
• I liked Eul but she deserved better than any of the guys in this.
• I liked the main "justice for her dead father" plot enough to give it a 6, but the romance aspect just fell flat for me.

• The teacher is great, especially when he snapped at Soo Bin's mama.
• The soundtrack in this is super weird, for like the first 6 episodes it's full of English language songs like Bad Guy by Billie Eilish, I'm Yours by Jason Mraz and that I love the planet song by I think Lil Dicky, but then after around episode 6 they're seemingly gone.
• I was disappointed they didn't do anything with the gay character, they build him up as pretty obviously being a closeted gay guy, and then when he comes out to his ex / then gets outed by someone else that over hears it, that's kinda just it, they never really do anything with it.
• At the end the main guy has decided to move away for a bit to be with his mother who's going through some troubles, but he spends one last big day together with his girlfriend (he hasn't told her he's leaving yet) and he decides to take her to a movie... movies seem like a bad date in general as you're just sat in silence, but for their last day it seems even worse... but tbh I rarely leave my house so what the hell do I know.
• Honestly I didn't really like the ending too much, I wish there was at least a little time skip so you can see them together again.
• Overall the main couple is super cute so I enjoyed this.

• I really wish I liked this more. 
• It has a good premise, I just wasn't really all that into it past a certain point.

Finished on April 29, 2024  

• The first maybe three quarters of this are good, but after high school everything feels so rushed, there's multiple time skips in the span of a few episodes until suddenly they're all 30.
• I liked the two side characters and their wedding the most of the post high school stuff.
• This is also one of those rare love triangles where they pick the wrong person.

• "Ongsaaa"
• "It's good that Ongsa is Earth."
• This was so good !!

Finished on June 3rd, 2024  

• I love Nana, she's great.
• Sou's mum is really pretty.
• Minato looks like he's 12, the man must've straight up drowned in the fountain of youth... it's a lil distracting.
• The flashback scene in episode 9 where he fully loses his hearing 
• reminder to look for the piano version of the ED used for episode previews
• the chalk scene !!

Finished on June 4th, 2024  

• This was a lot more comedic than I expected based off the description 
• This also straight up name drops the film About Time.

Finished on June 4th, 2024  

• I liked how her friends were just willing to believe her
• The main actress reminds me of someone but I'm not sure who.

Finished on June 6th, 2024  

• Okay, so I'm a simple man, if something makes me cry, I like it. So this was something I'd like by default since I cried during the very first scene, but this was better than I could've ever expected! 
• Usually in time travel romance stories like this, they end or fix all the time travel elements with maybe 10 minutes to spare, at which point you get a lil epilogue of the couple being together... in this you get an entire episode of them being adorable and I love that so much
• It's wild just how good this was! I can't wait to be able to rewatch it again in a year or so.

Finished on June 8th, 2024  

• this dude just pulled his hearing aid out and drops it in the girls hand
• i love the sound marbles make when they hit each other. i had a big tube full of different sized marbles but i think i binned them when i did a big tidy a few years back. that sucks, this is why hoarding is important!
• I felt so bad for Min Ju, she hates herself and then somebody randomly takes over her body for a while and then nearly everybody likes the "new Min Ju" more, and then when she gets back in control of her body, people basically straight up tell her that. Obviously she does get told some advice that seemingly changes her view at the end (having unrealistic life expectations that make her lose sight of herself and her own well-being) but we never get to see how she ends up in the present day in the new timeline.
• I was a little disappointed in the ending, it's realistically the only way the story could've ended, I just wish they'd shown more of what happens to everyone in the new timeline.

• *finger guns*
• i love the dolphin man
• the end of episode 8 was stressful !!
• the old lady gang war
• Yong Pil's dad is insufferable.
• the whole town coming together to give false directions to the reporters
• I really enjoyed this for the most part, but the 2 year time skip ending where after they'd finally gotten together after all these years, and then he fucks off to Switzerland is just really unsatisfying.
• Also I wish her sister and the dolphin man had gotten more screen time

Finished on June 12th, 2024  

• r.i.p akira toriyama
• the part where he goes off on the relatives about how much plastic surgery they'd need
• her jealousy in episode 6 was so good !!
• Man, these two were adorable 

Finished on June 14th, 2024  

• I knew this had the main actress from Hometown Cha-cha-cha, but it also has the actor that played Oh Chun Jae.
• This is very similar to Uncontrollably Fond for me in that the main plot is interesting but the core romance does very little for me. Having said that, unlike UF the plot moves too slowly to keep my interest for long, this definitely suffers from the default 16 1 hour episode format
• There was this big reveal in episode 14, but they'd already shown it like 7 episodes ago

Finished on June 16th, 2024  

• This wasn't what I expected based on the description and I was a lil disappointed but by the end I was glad it is what it is
• They picked the perfect main actor for this. Those eyes man, he's so hot !!

Finished on June 18th, 2024  

• The main actress is a great cryer.
• The scene where the girls mama has been giving out missing person flyers constantly for years. I do wish we'd gotten to see them again in the future after she gets saved.
• This had it's issues but I enjoyed it for the most part... the killers motive was disappointing as just being a dude with mother issues murdering women that read books because his mama liked books.

Finished on June 19th, 2024  

• This is very stupid but in a fun way.
• There's a scene where Ha-Ri goes to the bathroom in a restaurant and then when she comes out the guy is playing Yiruma on the piano, it's all very self aware of what kind of show it is.
• Young-Seo has a very nice voice.
• I wasn't the biggest fan of the ending though, South Korea seems to really like these "force the main couple apart for a while" endings, and while I don't always dislike that (I love the Thai drama 23.5 and the anime Toradora which both have endings like that) it does get a lil annoying at times (I hated it the most in True Beauty because they actually break up because of it before getting back together at the end)

Finished on June 21st, 2024  

• This was good, the main kid actress was fantastic... I feel like it'd be harder to look past the flaws if she wasn't. 
• I expected this to be more grounded than it is, so I wasn't expecting the sci-fi elements at all.
• I was a little worried they'd give us an unrealistic ending where he gets no prison time, but it ends well.

Finished on June 22nd, 2024  

• You'd expect a series that is basically 8 15 minute episodes would have very little down time, but this is so painfully slow and boring and the characters all seemingly have very little personality.

Finished on June 22nd, 2024  

• The poster and trailer for this are both kinda terrible and tell you very little about the show.
• The whistle ending scene was perfect

Finished on June 24th, 2024  

• Ponytail + glasses is an unmatched combo tbh
• I really liked Mi Joo and Dan Ah's friendship dynamic.
• There were so many golf clubs in this, but not a single one ended up embedded in Seon Gyeom's dads skull.
• The description for this is just factually wrong in that "Ki Sun Gyeom had just quit sprinting when he encountered Oh Mi Joo" just isn't true.

Finished on June 26th, 2024  

• The second episode was ROUGH, but it picks up significantly from 3 onwards, honestly very little happens in episode 2 and it all could've been condensed into a 10 minute bit at the end of episode 1 or something. I'm glad I kept watching though.
• I mentioned this when I watched Business Proposal but Seol In Ah has such a nice voice !!
• In one of the episodes towards the end a character was wearing a Black Parade era MCR t-shirt in 1995 which I thought was a pretty dumb mistake. Coincidentally Lovely Runner had one too, but it made sense timeline-wise in that.
• Her threatening to start singing Blackpink songs was really funny.
• Based on the poster I was expecting a different vibe in this... it gets pretty heavy at times, with the abusive evil step-mother.

Finished on June 28th, 2024  

• The scene where she sees her mother from her 18th life again and they cry and hug, but then the camera changes and you see it's not real and she's hugging the air
• I think this would've been better if it was just a simple story of a woman chasing a guy from her past life. All the other characters that also remember their past lives, and all the drama from her first life just drag the show down. 
• I did really enjoy the first 3 quarters though, it just falls off a bit towards the end.
