The time travel romance I've always wanted but never expected to witness come to fruition

Not since "Nirvana in Fire", "Ten Miles", "Healer", and "Memory Lost" have I seen such an amazingly written, acted (two leads made me feel their love was real and I LOVED their chemistry and facial expressions), and produced series. There's so much crap today that nothing's been catching my interest until I caught avenuex's youtube review of this. Boy, she sure wasn't kidding when she labelled it the best contemporary drama she's seen since starting her channel.Finally, a romance with the most intriguing time travel mystery plot that's intricately written and doesn't fall apart. This is the time travel story I've always wanted to read or watch: Main girl time travels into the body of another girl and gets that girl's crush (male lead) to fall hard for her (he didn't like the original inhabitant). I've always wanted to read about a romance plot like that because it'll be such fun to watch the male lead slowly fall for someone he's never liked, but now is drawn towards only due to the main girl's soul inhabiting the body. It's like he truly falls for her soul/spirit and not the body. Sooo romantic!!! And the drama does such a good job at showcasing the male lead's "falling" process layer by layer and doesn't rush it. So delicious and swoonworthy!!!No episodes feel like filler and such care is placed into the narrative and character development. This feels like a breath of fresh air! So many dramas these days waste screen time with bloat or scenes that add absolutely nothing to the narrative that I can hardly believe a drama like this can exist. Thank you Taiwan!!! This drama is on another level and I can't wait to finish it!!! Love the love story and overall plot!!!UPDATE: I just finished and am bawling!!! The ending totally justified the means and resolved the narrative in the best way possible. It's both an incredible love story and a story about self-worth and the drama achieved both without seeming forced or preachy. Wow, can't believe how seamlessly the writers were able to intertwine both the love/self-worth stories seamlessly without sacrificing either. Both heavily overlapped with the other, so it was impossible to become invested in one and not the other -I loved this as I hate too many plot threads that exist having little to do with each other.SPOILERSSPOILERSThis drama did almost the impossible: Left me wanting a zillion more episodes, esp. of the leads in the past -them getting to know /falling hard for each other and being unable to live without the other. The "past" episodes of the leads is my favorite time loop and I'm soo happy the drama spent the most time there. I loved seeing the male lead fall soo hard against his reason/sanity and pine after the female lead despite all the obstacles/lies that were thrown at him. My heart was bleeding for him when, towards the end, he was falsely lead to believe that the female lead never existed and was a mere fantasy. At that point, his devastated and "devoid of all hope" expressions were utterly heartbreaking. And despite it all, he still kept yearning for her even if she may just be a figment of some else's imagination. Then, once he finally meets up with her again, he knew instantly that it was her and not the original owner of the body she's in. That kind of love is just on another level and transcends time/space!The drama truly proved that the he only loves the female lead's soul and will NEVER settle for anything other than her. No matter how many doubts/lies is thrown his way; he'll forever be hopelessly in love with her. I especially loved how many times his love was tested and he passed with flying colors every single time -so satisfying and swoonworthy!Beyond romantic and everything I want in a romance! This was basically the romance time travel story I've always wanted but never expected to witness come to fruition.The only issue I had was a very unbelievable plot convenience towards the latter episodes: How easily the otherwise intelligent/logical female lead spilled all her secrets to the villain, knowing that he's possibly shady. At that point, she should have been much more guarded and I felt that that was just a forced way to get to one of the good twists. But ultimately, that one instance of bad writing didn't affect the overall masterfully crafted story, so I can forgive/forget.
