I went into this show with high expectations, because of the glowing reviews and the interesting sounding summary. The show luckyly lived up to my expectations. The plot kept me at the edge of my seat the whole, even while watching it the second time it had my full attention. The story is told bit by bit and it feels almost like your are solving a mystery along with the characters, this very much reminded me of another of my favourite shows, healer, which is also told in a similar way. The story set in the 1930's was the most intriguing to me, because it's the whole mystery of the show, what happend in their past life?
The romance and the friendships in this show are if i had to descripe it with only one word heartwarming. Han Se Joo's relationship with the two other main leads is at the start very hateful, but slowly he begins to care about them. It was especially fun to see the friendship between Han Se Joo and Yu Jin Oh grow, bacause Han Se Joo didn't really wanna admit that he cares about him. This bromance was in the past also really pure and you knew they had each other back. The romance between Han Se Joo and Jeon Seol is pleasure to watch develop through their two lifes. Their relationship is at times heartbreaking and others times it warms my little heart, and makes me cry while smiling. Jeon Seol and Yu Jin Oh bond at times seems kinda one sidede, because Yu Jin Oh likes Jeon Seol as more than a friend. But she truly cares about him too and cares for him like a big brother and comrad.
The characters are all fleshed out and truly feel like real people. They all grow and develop through the series. Many of the charcaters are technically two charcters. Two characters that have different goals, beliefs, personality and live in different time. But they are at times the same person and at others two people. Han Se Joo is arrogant and is very distant. He was very hurt by people he saw as his family in the past and because of that doesn't trust anyone. He begins to trust and love people after meeting Yu Jin Oh and Jeon Seol. His past self, Seo Hwi Young, is very secretive, but is like his future slef not so because he doesn't wanna get hurt, but is rather like that because he doens't wish to see those dear to him hurt. Hwi Young is a strong and resolute independence fighter. He's smart and skilled and is the leader of an independence fighter group.
Jeon Seol is a smart and hardworking, but is sadly often unlucky. She has since she was young been able to see moments of her past life, which led to the end of her shooting career. Her past self, Ryu Soo Hyun, is also a very hardworking girl, that has also gone through hard times. She fights to revenge her father and to help her friends.
Yoo Jin Oh is a cinnamon roll and really helps and stand up for the few people he really cares about. In his former life, Shin Yool, also cared more than anything about Ryu Soo Hyun and Seo Hwi Young.
The acting in this show was phenomenal. I hadn't ever seen any of the actors starring in the show before, but now most of them will be on my radar. The music fits the show so well and are great songs on their own.
I have within only one week already watched this show twice. It's a rollercoaster. It at times brings you immense happines and at other times has you crying like a newborn baby. I recommend this show to people who just wanna laugh, who wanna se a cute love story, but most of all i recommend this show to those who wanna get wrecked by a good show.
The show is about discovering your past, but it wants you to live in the moment. Just like Shin Yool's bar is named Carpe Diem.
