I read that the writer of the drama was also the writer who wrote Goblin. How does she come up with these amazing stories?!
I absolutely love the premise but I felt slight frustration with the execution as there are some questions left unanswered. For example...why did Ok-nam come to the kingdom when she is from the Republic? I know she asked Tae-eul about the war but it still feels like a knot untied.
I wanted to feel more deeply about the meaning in this drama and the idea of parallel worlds. How your actions in one world perhaps affects your counterpart? Some sort of deeper story.
The ending was a little too happy-go-lucky for me. Tae-eul and Gon frolic through different eras, gates, worlds - it seems irresponsible but I guess the intention is they have plenty of dating spots to choose from and it was to be seen as romantic.
I felt so sad the tight bond of Tae-eul's inner circle was broken and separated. I love that group especially the scene of them in 2016 at a restaurant. They help each other like family. Shinjae no longer exists. I feel the pain like as if he was killed off but it is just that he is in the kingdom now. When Tae-eul goes to chase criminals and she is with new officers we don't know, the pain sort of hit harder. I understand they kept Jangmi but the police crew's bond was like nothing other.
At least Yeong somehow was recovered and I would have liked to see that scene rather than just accept Gon somehow got past the guards. Only Yeong besides our main couple still has his memories. It's so bittersweet.
The opening to this drama - I imagine it on the big screen and can feel how it could take my breath away. I did think it would be more special and breathtaking but I particularly love the part when they list the actors' names.
The guy who plays Yeong/Eunseob, Lee Minho, Kim Go Eun, and the actor who played Shinjae were my favourites regarding the acting in this drama. I love their characters as well as Jangmi who is such an innocent new recruit despite his appearance. Jangmi is so reliable and caring for others.
