The first half of this drama, I wasn't quite sure how I felt about it to be honest. Jeon Ji Hyeon
(Chun Song Yi) was a bit annoying at the best of times. (Okay, perhaps a lot.) But considering that was the character she played - I definitely can't say it's bad acting. In fact; it's GREAT that she made me feel like that. As for the other lead - Kim Soo Hyun (Do Min Joon) - I wasn't sure how I felt about his character at first either. But he grew on me really quickly. His interaction with people was amusing at the best of times!
The story/plot was good. Especially the second half of the drama knew to hold me in a tight grip, making me bingewatch it and cry many tears. I grew to love the supporting actors so much as well.
Compared to my favorite drama's, I couldn't give it an equal rating as them, purely because the first half made me feel a bit unsure about how I felt. But it's definitely not a bad drama and one I'll likely someday rewatch again.
I love the character development that took place with almost all characters. And not all romance has a happy ending - this was something that I really thought to be a nice touch as well!

a childish soap opera with little substance
What I likedActually, the humour is pretty great, the female lead is giving physical comedy bites that rarely pass the cringe line. in the first episodes, i was laughing a lot
What I didn't
1. The main couple. The main lead is doing the cold thing and making her cry a ton, her being in the worst time of her career. she inexlicably falls for him. okay, the explanation is that he is hot. wow. riveting stuff
2. the female lead. her whole personality is her beauty. life kicks her in the butt, which i have to admit the scenes were heatrbreaking, but she just wears new clothes and cries over it.
TL;DR
looks amazing, it's empty inside

No matter how much I try, don't like it.
This is one of the few dramas which I try to like and give fair chances but can't, I know it's a one of the most beloved dramas and I can see that perspective but i still don't like itIt's a 2013-14 drama, and aired around the same time to "I hear your voice" which is one of my all time favourite kdrama. This one had higher production value, star-studded cast, better cinematography, More unique storyline but failed to deliver the fundamental aspect of any drama (in my opinion) Character development.
It stars kim soo hyun and jun ji hyun both of them are eye candy, however I didn't like jun ji hyun's character here. She is an excellent actress, and I've seen her many movies including thieves(2012) which stars both of these actors. However her character is too childish here and the character development part is almost absent.
I first started this drama a few years ago and dropped it after 3-4 episodes , again started it a few years later (dropped it at 9th episode) and this is my third try and again dropped it at 9th episode. I don't know how that simple storyline spans over 20 episodes and i think the pacing is an issue as well.
One thing that i really liked in this drama is the villain, he portrayed the role perfectly

A quirky storyline and cute moments. Also the OST continues to be played.
But with most kdramas, the plot fades in parts, and doesn't have the Hollywood factor I am used to watching.
Overall I am glad to have hopped on the bandwagon, and have happy feelings towards such a cute couple!

I think this drama is pretty overrated, mainly because of the top stars in this drama and popularity of it because otherwise, I don't see a basis for this 8.9 rating. Personally, I love Kim Soo Hyun -he's one of my favorite actors- but for some reason this drama just didn't cut it for me.
This drama had a lot of potential but it kind of just went all over the place. There's a lot of genres and different mysteries throughout, which is what brought this drama down. The genres ranged from historical/saeguk genre dating back to the Joseon years to modern 20th century top-star actors to family drama to crazy messed up crime to magic sci-fi to comedy to conglomerate businesses. I like all of these genres, but when they are combined, it just doesn't work out. Like one moment you'd be watching middle-aged scholars write historical books in the 1600's and the next moment you'd be brought into reality when a top star actress is being arrogant and demands to be escorted at every second.
I loved the sci-fi theme about how Do Min Joon was an 'alien' and had special superpowers, and I think if the story just focused on this, it would have had so much more potential and still have been very interesting. But when they brought in egocentric film industry characters and psychopathic serial killers, it really made the story all over the place. Sometimes, it even felt like Do Min Joon's powers were just a side story because it focused so much on solving the murder crimes committed by Lee Jae Kyung (who was a complete psycho btw, and everytime he came on the screen, I just wanted to scream).
Do Min Joon, however, was an amazing character and I loved his personality. Deep down, he is a very kind person that is loyal and will sacrifice his life protecting others. His awesome alien capabilities made him all the more cool and I wish I could do those things like teleport lmao. Kim Soo Hyun being cast as him was a great choice, but I wish I could say the same for Jun Ji Hyun. Her character was someone that was spoiled, bratty, and arrogant af considering she plays a topstar actress. Sometimes I wish someone else was cast because she is considerably older than Do Min Joon. However, after her career went downhill, you can see that she is actually someone pretty cute with a lot aegyo, especially when she starts to realize that she likes Do Min Joon, and I thought it was very cute when she got clingy to him. Even though she seems like she has everything in the eyes of others, she really doesn't.
Cheon Song Yi's brother was hilarious. At first, he was portrayed as someone very arrogant, and I was like...? what's his purpose in this drama; but, especially after seeing his interactions with Do Min Joon his character took a complete reversal and he was really funny. Also considering the fact that Ahn Jae Hyung plays a high school student even though he is older Do Min Joon is also pretty funny. That E.T. moment though (replayed that like 10 times xD)
Okay moving on to some other characters. Hee Kyung go really annoying sometimes and it got on my nerves, but I liked him better towards the end when he realized what his brother was doing bc he was pretty smart about it. Also, his obsession towards Song Yi was kinda creepy, like no offense but an enlarged picture of her on your bedroom wall?? Okay sorry. Anyways, I also liked Yoo Se Mi's brother, the prosecutor, because he was pretty smart yet still handsome!
The music was nice, but not amazing. There's of course the infamous 'My Destiny' song which I like, but has been overplayed so much that I kind of don't like it anymore lol.
Overall, this drama was okay, but just could have been so much better! Just the plot had so many categories that it just couldn't concentrate on one thing to make it better. However, this may be a good drama to watch if you are new to kdramas!

romance that transcends centuries and the longing that spans light-years apart
This drama truly deserves every bit of its massive fan following and even more. It's hands down one of the most beautifully crafted stories out there.Why I liked it:
1. Captivating plot: It maintains a steady momentum, with only a few lows but significantly more highs.
2. Outstanding cast: Kim Soo Hyun is an exceptional talent—words can't fully capture how phenomenal he is as an actor. While I'm not necessarily a fan of Jun Ji Hyun, I still enjoyed watching her performance. The rest of the cast was equally impressive.
3. A unique ending: Some might find the ending unsatisfactory, but I personally enjoyed it. Having read several stories with similar conclusions, like Gakuen Alice, I used to find such endings disheartening. However, over the years, I've matured to appreciate the depth of bittersweet conclusions. That said, I can’t deny that a part of me still wished for a more satisfying closure for the main characters.
4. A timeless love story: The romance that transcends centuries and the longing that spans light-years apart was incredibly moving.
5. The comedic relief: The humor added a sparkle to the parts where the story momentarily lost its momentum.
Areas where the story could have been improved:
1. Vague time-travel mechanism: There's little explanation of how he plans to travel back. Like, okay, here's a comet... now what? Am I supposed to throw a rope around it or just stand in front of it? At least provide some clarity!
2. Weak investigative elements: The writer seems to have limited knowledge of prosecution and detective work. The investigation scenes came off as lackluster.
3. A poorly developed female lead: The female protagonist's character felt weak and somewhat irrelevant. She didn’t contribute significantly to the story from start to finish.
4. Boring flashbacks: The scenes set in the past were quite tedious. I initially watched a few but soon realized they didn’t add much value to the plot, so I skipped them.
Lastly, the background music was delightful. Every time I rewatch this drama, its soundtrack keeps playing in my head for days afterward.

i really liked this drama inspite of having many comments on it but still loved
it's cute, funny, made you feel warm many times and fluffy
what bothered me.. the angle of the camera wasn't good many times at the FL's shots
the ML many times missed the right reaction which suits the situation in my opinion but still ok
i should salute (Sung Rok) so much for his role
he is a great actor he made me hated him so much
and what i dislike about his end that his father didn't slap him at the prison .. LOL
i'm sorry but he deserved it much, many times i wanted to get inside the screen and slap him by myself
what i dislike about this drama
the fantasy part i found it illogical
first the ML his senses should be more ×7 times from ours so i found him stupid many times and his intelligence was so normal & many times (Sung Rok) was more intelligent than him
second what i knew that aliens aren't restricted by time or asteroids
so from what he said that his people down to earth many times
why he can't do that except every 400 yrs ??
high clap for (yoo in ah) she is a great actor
she is the first angel B***H i ever seen in Korean dramas
i hated her till the end
at the begging i was sympathized with her till she reveals her real face
she is not an unconditionally loving person as she appears and she is full of envy
blaming her friend about something out of their hands is totally weakness and stupidity
she accepted to be as a quite shadow and hiding behind her friend instead of struggling for her career
so why she is blaming her
i hate that kind of persons the (QUIET EVIL ) ones
and the FL's mom was a real huge B**** till the end i hated her
she is like the leech
very selfish and disgusting
and i loved the lawyer and the prosecutor so much ^_^
WHAT I WISHED FOR THIS DRAMA REALLY
the story should be a realistic one instead of fantasy one
it would be amazing if it was
but as i said before , i still loved so much

Pra ser sincera fiquei decepcionada. As atuações são ótimas, e o dorama começou bom e prometendo bastante, porém muitos furos foram aparecendo e a premissa principal (que era o fato do Do Min Joon conhecer Cheon Song Yi em uma vida passada) simplesmente foi esquecido, o que é um problema considerando que essa premissa foi o que basicamente fez os dois ficarem juntos. Com certeza, é possível sentir a angústia dos personagens pela impossibilidade deles ficarem juntos, mas detestei o final, que foi MUITO mal explicado, em apenas um diálogo, depois de episódios e mais episódios de sofrimento em torno do fato de que o Do Min Joon não poderia ficar na terra. Literalmente todo o drama foi em cima desse fator, mas nada foi explicado. Nada foi explicado sobre a raça dele, sobre porque ele morreria se ficasse na terra, nem em como ele foi e voltou do nada depois de passar 400 anos esperando o bendito cometa.
Também esperava mais da química entre os personagens. A sensação é que o relacionamento deles não teve progresso por pelo menos 17 episódios, e os últimos 4 foi só sofrimento porque eles não poderiam ficar juntos.
Enfim, foi bom ter assistido, porém não é um dorama que assistiria de novo. Sei que muitas pessoas curtem essas histórias com drama sem fim, mas eu não sou uma delas, além de que muita coisa no roteiro simplesmente não faz sentido. Ouvi falar sobre esse dorama com um "must watch" e um "clássico", então fiquei bem desapontada quando terminei.
Enfim, fica a resenha.

By episode 5 i was hooked and I found myself staying up until 1 am watching because I was so excited for each episode. The story is pretty good, the characters are quite different to what you might expect of a normal Kdrama. The Lead girl however, is COMPLETELY different. I disliked her at first but soon came to love her interactions with the lead guy. I also have to say the supporting characters were really well thought out too. I especially loved the younger brother, played by Ahn Jae Hyun (a beautiful person btw) his character was really quirky and his interactions with Do Min Joon were hilarious.
The music fit well with the drama and a few songs were played so often that you could sing along with them nearer the end. I would totally come back to this drama and watch it again once i've cleared through my long list of planning to watch!
Overall, I really loved the drama, it made me laugh, cry and everything in between, I wholeheartedly recommend this drama to romance lovers!
