A Time Called You

The kdrama, although a remake of a Thai series (I absolutely didn't know about) feels fresh. The actors Hyo Seop and Jeo Been have an excellent chemistry and have done a great job playing their roles very well across different ages . The kdrama gives you hope and then takes it away and right when you think it's gone, the writers give you back the hope again. It's ofcourse not the usual rom com kdrama, there's mystery, suspense and thrill, ofcourse with tons of love. The episodes keep you hooked and before you know, you really binge watch all 12 of them at a go. The locations for the shoot are mesmerising and you're in for an overall treat.

I am a huge fan of the original masterpiece (Taiwanese) version of this remake and I have to say, if you watch this with the other one in mind you will be greatly disappointed.

But if you watch this with fresh eyes or you aren't interested in the original you will find this one entertaining and enjoyable and filled with lovely moments.

Best thing of this remake was hands down the female lead, Jeon Yeo, her capacity of transforming herself into the two personalities (Jun Hee & Min Ju ) was amazing, I was in awe every time I was watching her one or the other you could tell who was who immediately! Really good performance.

Not that impressed by the male lead, I watched him in a lot of dramas ( 17 going to 30 my fave so far) and he is a great actor, but I am not sure if this was how his characters were written, or because of the consequence of the time travel and the mix of the personalities, the two characters were so similarly played (Yeon Jun & Si Heon) I could barely tell them apart.

The romance of the drama is good and is a big focus of the series, I felt the chemistry between the leads and it was quite enjoyable for me to watch this remake with this actors as well.

Time travel arcs of the series, along with the crime, thriller and suspense ones , had some holes and some parts made no sense at all, so it gets to a point that you just keep watching and go with it. That was a bit frustrating.

Overall and I say it again, in my opinion you will only be able to enjoy this drama if you don't compare it to the original OR you haven't watched it yet.

So if you haven't, give it a go!

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.

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.

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.
