was waiting to finish to comment on this show loved it! great acting overall Joel really stole the show with his acting he did really well for his first lead? selena was good too she looked gorgeous! I liked the little stories more than the main one....the main story was actually abit confusing personally I dont like time travel/3rd dimension or whatever it was lol
Just finished this but surprised to see there are like no comments I agree with shino how I liked the mini-stories more than the main story. Too confusing but I'll enjoy the drama just as the mini-stories. Was nice to see how characters you see in the beginning later got their own stories, or sometimes even after they're done theirs they still make an appearance (Gloria & Koling). The ending was a nice touch how they "brought" all the stories back. Also watched Unwinding Ethos (although didn't finish) so was kinda cool to see Rosina's character make an appearance here as it totally fits the theme lol. Overall, I liked the drama theme and can see why Joel and Selena won best couple.
I feel like we did discuss this...but maybe on discord I really enjoyed this, the mini stories...I knew the woman with the baby was CRAZYYYY, I knew it! the baby wasn't real! I was playing the themesong nonstop, still am - there's just something so hauntingly beautiful about it in the song cover for this drama. I do enjoy past lives/reincarnation stuff lol - shinobi watch more Doctor Who you'll love time travel Looking forward to the sequel and great to see Selena return for it too.
