Do Bae Man is A Horrible Dude you Cannot and Should not Root For in this poorly written Affair.

The ML is a scumbag full stop. Im all for redemption Arcs but when your starting point is bowing down before a voilent series rapist and promising you'll get him off while the victim is barely coping with the terror of repercussion then well its hard to redeem. (The rape was horrendous btw)The fact then there is basically no redemption arc makes my mind boggle. Literally immediately the apparently righteous FL (who is the one supporting the rape victim along with the MLs aunt who is a detective investigating his case) is smiling and having Chemistry with the ML. He has now gone pro rape victim not because he cares one bit but because FL reveals to him the rapists family killed his parents. This revelation makes him sad and angry (again not because he cares about the poor terrified woman who has just been raped and is living in fear of reprisal because she had the guts to go to the police and is terrified a scumbag like the ML will get her violent scumbag rapist off) no its because it affects him it makes him angry he happily got on his knees for this dirtbag but now Seemingly he is righteous and all is well Eh no its not, not by a long shot. I cannot understand anyone who could root for a scumbag ML like this and then having him have "chemistry" with the badass FL Just totally demeans her. Seriously i will never watch one of this writers dramas again on principle. What a waste of Jo Bo Ahs character. If she was written as using the ML but also planning on teachimg him a lesson maybe but that does not happen. God its one parhetic show.
AVOID IT ALL COSTS Unless you like pure stupidity and crassness.

Do Not Worry This Is A well executed compelling Story from Start to Finish

So I realise this is a remake of a Taiwanese drama i know nothing about nor do I want to. Just want to be clear about that.

One of the things Ive grown to love about Kdramas is how they hand you a Supernatural, Time Travel, or Fantasy premise and just roll with it, they dont feel the need to exllain the detailed roots of the scenarios they set their stories in. They just present it and away we go. So in that sense often the suprernatiral, sci fi, timetravel, mind reading or other out there premise facilitates the story rather than becomes the story. So in A Time Called You we dont know how or why a "walkman" is suddenly a time travelling soul trans migration device it just is and it just means a fantastic tale can be and is told.

I loved this drama for the wonderfully clever way of telling a love story (actually several), a crime mystery and a youthful struggle of acceptance and coming to terms with life.

I groan when i read about it not making sense for x or y reasons. As i said the walkman is a time machine logic is not the point. Having said that there is a tightness to the chronology and attention to detail in the story that makes it less plothole ridden than most shows that dabble in time travel and their resultant loops and multiverses.
The FL acting is wonderful, the rest of the cast are on point, the twists and turns are clever well paced and often delightfully unexpected.

Do not get hung up on the laws of physics, the writer doesnt, do not get hung up on the original vs remake, just watch and enjoy having a superior viewing experience.

Highly Reccomend.

Super Ick Age Gap Romance

Having seeing the FL and her unique beauty and charm in a historical drama i thought oh ill watch this and went in blind. I wish i hadnt The age gap here is way too obvious and ick. 18 yrs FFS. What is that about. I wonder if there is a 31yr old man out there sleeping around enjoying his life and can do that for another 8 years and then my now 13yr old will be 21 ooh and if shes lucky she can get with him without experiencing anything much herself but thats okay shes just a girl. That is the conceit and imbalance in these horrible male fantasy romances. Women lapping them up is just hilarious.
The message for boys is hey guys spend your 20s and 30s having a great time have loads of experiences travel work play sleep around let off steam and then you can just marry a 20 yr old girl after all that WHOOP.

The message forGirls just marry an old guy with a job (a good one if your lucky) and give him babies and count yourself lucky. Stupidage gapdramas like this perpetuate the misfuided notion tbatage gap marraiges and romances are normal and desirable. They may be for men (i mean lets face it, its a great deal for the guys) but for women its just imbalance and selling short.
Chemistry!!! Romance !!!!!!!!!

LOL LOL LOL TRASH F RIGHT OFF
