Algum Dia ou Um Dia (2019)

"How do I get better when I've had the best?"

I honestly started watching this drama blind-sidedly. I did not know what the drama was about nor who were the actors. I was just intrigued by the title of this one.

And honestly, I was literally crying from EP1. Not because the story was too sad to watch but it was more of because I was able to relate to the story. As someone who lost her SO in real life, this drama was able to put into words a lot of emotions I was not able to. I felt for the FL when it seemed like everyone else around her was able to move on with their own lives, and here she was still living in the past while trying to thrive for herself for her future.

People might think that the FL was a little bit obsessed and/or delusional but honestly, up until you've been thru the same thing, you cannot really tell. Like how the heck do you move on from something that did not even end? The sole thought of knowing that if he was still alive you know that you will be together still and you know that it is really hard to look for something even remotely close to what you had before
Sorry back to the drama... honestly the first half of this drama i really liked. The 2nd half was a bit meh for me. Especially the part where they killed the ML for the 2nd time again and made the FL lead go through that hell again just after a few days of reconnecting. And the way it was phased, I felt like it did not even give the death of the ML justice. It was like he was killed one second, the FL cried, then next scene was the FL was already out and about investigating. No grief no anything.

Lastly, I hope they were more clear about the ending. Like I would really want to know what happened to everyone? If everything was really brought to them by fate, would they still fall in love with each other but in a different way? IDK... these are the questions left in my mind after watching this drama. But overall it was cute, i really really like the OST of the drama <3 Love all the feels it gives me <3

Great premise!!! Ending was okay. but great actors also!!!

I sincerely hope that this kind of time travelling really exists <3

So an acquaintance kept asking me to watch this since I watched '18 Again' and I decided to give it a try. I have to say I really liked the story, it is quite different with other 'time travel' dramas and do not overly focus on the romance part despite the main female lead is a miserable woman who can't move on from her dead boyfriend. Viewers can become detectives together with Huang Yuxuan to solve the mystery and experience her growth along the journey. I appreciate the 1998 story also featured some aspect on teenagers issue, including some which are considered taboo. However, I docked some points from the story aspect since the pace is unbearably slow, especially nearing the end despite the ending is very nice and realistic (oh and also why Li Ziwei's hair is so 2019 when he was in 1998 lol).

The casts are marvelous in my opinion, Ke Jiayan and Xu Guanghan obviously took most credit since both of them successfully delivered various characters. Patrick Shih also had a good chemistry with both, and I felt the balance in term of acting between this three main characters. In term of music, I loved the opening and closing songs but not the magic Wu Bai's song.

In conclusion if you love time travel/fantasy drama but also wanted a good storyline, this is for you. No excessive romance, no random subplots, and quite straightforward. Enjoy the story, think together with the characters, and then became touched with the story.

episodic reactions documented

1st episode n its regret porn, like wow shawty thats a lot,
in the second epidoe we witness constant sexual harassment against a poor schoolgirl。
3rd episode and wow this is getting BEEFY and FAST. two timelines interwoven together and so many possibilities so many mysteries between them!!! this has definitely peaked my curiosity now. seriously some next level inception shit.
4th and this is not disappointing, the murder mystery is really catching on。
5th is eh. its fine.
episode 6, hmmm the random deranged stalker thing is kind of lame but the mama didi thing was cute
7.... WOW JESUS WHAT HUANDGASGHDH AHWHAHHATTTTTT JASJJA HUHHHH H HAJSDKM JUST/..... HOLY FUCKKKK NOOOOOOO HAHAHAHH WHATTTTT NO FUICKING WAY.
8 - i personally like the version of them that are incels,, imagine youre you and the next day a disgusting raging neurotypical takes over your body. its really weird that the incel version of the dude kisses the guy he likes without his consent and that we're supposed to sympathize with him getting punched in the face after thhough... like u deserved it? sotrry you k*lld yoursekf thiough thats ass but also really generic.... anyway this plot is getting so thick,, there has to be some kind of infinite money glitch happening here somewhere.
9 - uhhhhhh uhhhh hnnnggg uhuhhhh.
10 - uhhhhh um uhhh.
11 - hmm i didnt really feel anything when i found out he died... again. the acting is really demanding throughout the sshow and im getting increasingly numb to all the deaths happening, and its getting pretty frustrating lol.
12. oh.
13. uhhhhhh lolol femcel moment, by the end i felt i had witnessed something incredible, but the end where he meets the kid version of her and then she grows up and theyre together again kind of confused me............... like what r u saying mate.. anyway yeah this was outstanding even though at times it felt very overbearing

extra scene: its just a scene that confirms what was suggested in the ending of the original series - kind of pedo-y but at this point who am i kidding lmfao it makes more sense than a time loop where trauma and killings have to go on over and over again to be maintained lol - it was like a toxic relationship we're sad to see go but know deep down that it was never good for us

regretted watching this so late

this is like the best taiwanese dramas i've watched so far (although i haven't tried that many). I was addicted to the OST and finally had the chance to try this drama a few days ago. I finished this series in 3 days. The complications got me thrilled and the romance between huang yuxuan and li ziwei got me screaming! it was kinda sad to see mo junjie disappointed in the middle, but he finally got to be with chen ruyun. they deserved each other! plus li ziwei and huang yuxuan find their way to each other even without the tapes. I guess the wait to meet each other again is worth it. I will definitely rewatch this someday or one day :)

This fantasy drama deals with traveling through space and time in order to restore people's destiny that had been unwilling changed. How a refreshing love story this is from episode 1 to 9 ! Characters are quite interesting and their intereractions are so much well filmed. No clichés, in here, it all sounds very true even what is unlike to be ! That is precisely what makes this drama an outstanding one !
You may get confused at the beginning of the drama : two stories are crossed and don't follow any chronological time. The two stories main characters are also played on purpose by the same actors. You do need clues in order to follow the plot. As soon as you think you understand the 2 stories connections, next episode events may change it all and you really have to put all the different pieces you've been given at the right place to get the puzzle completed ! You willl finally really understand this extraordinary love story only on last episode.
Mistery and suspense give a big value to this drama and the storyline is rather very well handled. The director does a real great job making us hanging to the plot and getting involved with the characters and thrilling events. Traveling through time has to do with both an evil music tape player and Wu Bai's song "Last dance".
To me, the story key point is Chen Yun Ru, a 17 years old student whose life is not what she is expecting to be. She is lonely and depressed because nobody seems to care about her, nor even her family. She thinks that her existence is unnoticed. She has no friends and hates the whole world but hide her real feelings. Only Wu Bai's song Last dance makes her feel less uneasy in her life and can comfort her. She doesn't take any chance in getting to know her classroom mates and wears earphones whenever she can. Actually, a senior student, Mo Jun Jie, has noticed her and is interested in her. Mo Jun Jie is shy and his friend Li Zi Wei helps him to meet the girl. Those 3 become friends. One day, Chen Yun Ru wakes up in hospital because of a car accident. From that moment, things will definitely change for her and her two friends. She pretends now to her friends to be Huang Yu Xuan a 27 years old, mature, self-confident and communicative girl. The important point is that Huang Yu Xuan does exist and lives in 2019 while Chen Yun Ru lives in 1998. Here begins traveling through times loops that will eventually end when things turn back to what they were originally supposed to be.
If you don't like watching love stories this drama is not for you. If you like mystery, solving enigma through space and time you may find this drama quite thrilling and addictive. Actors are cute and good performers, a very good drama indeed.

Mixed feelings

I decided to give a chance to this drama at 2 AM because of a well-written comment on tik tok and thank god I did that.
The story was so interesting, unique, captivating and above all passionate. To be honest, if the cause was because I was tired or because of the fantastic work of the actors as well as the emotional plot line I don´t know but I do know that by the time I finished the first episode I was shedding tears as I did in other more eps.

Although, this emotional side of the drama can yes make you fall in love with their love story but can also make you feel frustrated because things aren´t going the way you want or sad because you feel like the characters deserve so much more or even confused since the time-lines sometimes are a little blurry and you can´t really tell what´s happening.

I can say that aside from the good things and the bad things that are part of a good drama, this one had some aspects that I have doubts about the execution that is more based on a personal opinion such as the ending. I have a lot of bad things to say about open endings, I dislike them with a passion because they have been used more especially in good movies which leads to me getting heartbroken, as usual.
I don´t want to imagine what happened I want to see, to testimony their ending, to their deserved happiness after so much trouble and chaos along the episodes. I can accept in some dramas or movies and even admit that it matches but in this one personally it was very well made but it hurt much more and maybe that was the point, could have predicted the drama was doomed to have this ending they never catch a break from tears, STILL one more reason to at least give us and shows us how after all of that both could have a good ending living together and jun jie happy too and all the others.

Moreover, don´t make this a reason to not watch Someday or One Day because it´s really worth your time, you won´t be bored nor regret watching it, because at the end of the day it´s such a beautiful story with a lot of learnings but also action, mystery and of course love.

Good confusion!

OVERALL
This drama is probably one of the best mystery dramas, in my opinion. Watch it if 1) you're looking for a well-written plot, with little to no loopholes, 2) you like fantasy/time-travel dramas, 3) you want a emotional and touching love story. Think twice if 1) you don't like getting confused by a drama plot, 2) age gaps between the OTP bother you, 3) you want to see lots of smexy scenes. But then still give it a shot. This drama is really something!

THE STORY
There's mystery like the whodunits, in which you're still kind of in control of what you're seeing. The puzzle is basically over and you're just missing a piece or two to have the full picture. And then there's Some Day or One Day, where you basically only have one or two pieces and you have no clue what the full picture is going to look like. I was lost and confused for most of this drama, and I LOVED every second of it!

The Good: The best thing about Some Day or One Day is obviously the writing. Time travel plots are easy to mess up, but the writing was tight. Every detail went full circle and made complete sense down the line. I also loved the female characters of this drama. Male lead and second male lead were fine, but common. Female lead was a no-nonsense, straightforward kind of girl and I loved her attitude. And second female lead was so real, making every scene about her feel extremely significant, even though we aren't meant to care about her until quite late in the series. Oh, and the interactions between all characters, and especially the OTP, are absolutely awesome. Male lead is an example that other dramas should follow, instead of constantly repeating the cold, mean, narcissistic lead. There's a lot to like about Some Day or One Day.

The Bad: There isn't a lot I didn't like about this drama. I wish there'd been more cute, sweet or smexy couple scenes, but I understand why there isn't. I can also mention the fact that one mystery in the series isn't that much of a mystery - it's pretty obvious from the start, or the fact that the ending of second female lead is unrealistic and not very coherent - I didn't feel super comfortable with what the drama implies about people like her. But overall, these are small weaknesses compared to all the strengths of this drama. NOTE: For the best experience of Some Day or One Day, make sure you watch the supplemental ending sequence they made and uploaded on Youtube, and don't end the drama with the last episode.

THE ACTING
Very good. I'd seen the actress before in at least two dramas and I think she's one of the best in Taiwanese television. Here her skills are more apparent since she plays two different people and you can tell, in her mannerisms, that they're entirely different. Male lead was also very good. There's one scene (opening sequence of episode 8) that particularly shocked me and made me realize he's not so far behind. He's pretty good too. I don't know what to say in terms of chemistry, but the OTP is still pleasant to watch and you totally root for them. It was all good!

THE MUSIC
Perf. This drama is one of those in which the music almost steals the show. So many of the songs ended up in my playlist, it's crazy!

REWATCH VALUE
Because the best part of this drama is the mystery and that feeling of being confused, I don't think it's a drama you can rewatch many times, regularly. But it's definitely a drama you can rewatch after some time, when you've forgotten the details of the drama and you can rediscover them and get surprised again. I did. This is my second time watching!

Time Dimensions Love

I watch it second time it completely change the preceptives of how i saw the story .. I reality was Wang Quan Sheng never loved Huang Yu Xuan . Wang was gay . HE try to kill himself so li zi wei took over his body when lizi was in coma use his body to change things . Wang inner soul already died so lizi was split into two they can't exist together so wang Quan took decision to destroy himself .
Huang loved liZi not Wang . LiZi loved Huang not Chen Yu . I love of Huang and LiZi made the changes in their dimensions and they went into deep loop . I loved the ending how different world is created now Mo Jun and Chen seem to be close start their own love story that way the loop of dimensions end there as Chen no longer need LiZi .
Now another dimensions start may be somwhere in future another loop will start but this time LiZi and Huang ANYONE else wouldn't get involved in future . I love everything about it . As i had second lead syndrome for Mo jun to be with chen it seem like it went kinda at last . This drama really mind blown me Kudos to actors , Directors and Writers . Everyone's acting was Top Noch

Trân trọng hiện tại, chẳng thể nào thay đổi quá khứ.

Bạn mình giới thiệu cho mình bộ này, mãi mà mình mới xem và mình không hối hận khi đã xem bộ phim này. Bộ này là một trong những bộ phim hay nhất, duy nhất mà mình tìm được trong những năm nay. Chẳng biết bao giờ mình mới có thể tìm được một bộ phim tâm đắc đến như thế nữa, bộ phim đem cho tới những hy vọng mới cho cả những bước đường tương lai sau này của mình.

Để viết về hai điều tuyệt vời nhất của phim thì đó chính là thứ nhất câu chuyện tình đẹp của Lý Tử Duy và Hoàng Vũ Huyên, thứ hai đó chính là kết phim.

Cả bộ phim là hành trình tình yêu đầy mộng mơ, đẹp đẽ mà cũng gian lao của hai người dành cho nhau.

Kết phim mang tới một thông điệp rằng dù có cỗ máy thời gian quay trở lại quá khứ thì chẳng có thể bao giờ thay đổi được kết cục của quá khứ, nếu muốn thay đổi thì hiện tại hay tương lai sẽ không tồn tại, mọi thứ chẳng thể nào biến mất được khỏi quỹ đạo của nó.

May mắn là có thêm một phần kết nho nhỏ sau đó tiếp thêm hy vọng về chuyện tình của Vũ Huyên và Tử Duy <3

Mình mong chờ đón xem bản điện ảnh của phim.

I think I can honestly agree with everyone else when they say that this was a creative masterpiece. Although I'm a rom-com watcher myself, sometimes I like a little twist in things and I'm sure a lot of people do as well. This show was just creative right off the bat and you purely did not want to stop watching it. You would think it's just about someone that's grieving or even more than that but it's a huge story of line of finding a past self, new self and someone you don't actually know at all. Not only that, but there's new things from the whole show throughout the way, it has friendship, to romance to a murder mystery yall. How crazy is that.

Alice and Greg were a wonderful pair to be a actor and actress in this aspect because they had great chemistry and the acting from everyone else was great as well. They played great parts in every way.

The music was okay lol but I wouldn't go out and search for it.

All in all, it's a quick and easy watch, I personally wouldn't rewatch it but it was nice and easy.

I think the only ting that I dont like in this series is the song they used for time travel -"Last Dance" by wu bai..I dont know..I just dont like it...For some reason, I feel irritated everytime I hear it..hahaha..sorry..but the rest of the songs are really good..specially the opening theme...I love the emotion on that song...Anyways, I love everything about this series(except from the song "Last Dance") - the story,pacing,editing,cinematography,OST,acting...everything...I cant belive that the lead actress is already 35 years old..she looks like 17 years old..I love the emotion they gave on this series... I love how editing was done..its unpredictable...love the ending....Im just wondering what happened to Wang Chuan-Sheng(the original one who commited suicide) after the future changed..did he still had the same fate?? But overall, this is a must-watch..it deserves an international recognition...the time travel was made decently..Love everything about it...I almost forgot that Taiwanese dramas are good as well...its been a long time i watched a series from Taiwan..totally loved this.
