Braincells... I don't know them

Am I the only one that has questions??? LIKE A LOT. I can't explain how confused I am because to me, if you're going to film a time travel theme drama, you gotta make it make sense. But Sisyphus doesn't know logic apparently.

When developing a plot so complicated like this one you gotta set some common rules for the world-building, how everything works, how people act, their arcs, etc. But to me it seemed that most of the things happening in the story were for the sake of other things to happen in the future. I don't know how to explain it but everything was too "convenient" for its own good.
I'm truly confused with the way things work in this world and with the fact that some things happen to certain characters but not to others. Like, if A happens to B (who's coming from the future), then if A happens to C (who's also coming from the future) it has to happen the same way.

I think this drama failed to explain certain rules of the world and expected us, as viewers, to understand everything without an explanation. My braincells are all gone, I swear.

I'm mad because this drama, and specially the plot, had so much potencial. The cast is amazing, the story too, but when it came to telling the story and developing it, it failed completely. The script didn't help either, it's messy and a little cringy at some parts. Don't even get me started on the CGI cause I pretended like I didn't see anything of the effects throughout the entire drama. I just ingnored them.

The thing with the characters is that I didn't get attatched to any of them, and that was a huge turn off for me. How can I remain intrested in a story where I don't give a f*ck about what happens to their characters? I also feel that there were somo characters who were totally useless to the plot and they'd only get in the way of other people. Also feel like at the end they left stories incompleted and just hanging. I also don't really understand the motive behind Eddy Kim trying to kill Seo Hae and Tae Sul, we get it you're jealous and feel like you were Tae Sul's shadow your entire life, but to me that's a pretty cliche motive to just reveal and do what you please. I don't know, I feel like that ending was messy and it came out of nowhere.

OST is pretty good. Not much to say since it's not the most relevant thing to the story.

But what I will say, and this is what surprise me the most, is that the chemistry between Park Shin Hye and Jo Seung-woo is pretty good. I was not expecting this cause usually Park Shin Hye's partners are not suited for her, but I really liked how Seung Woo and her fitted together.

Anyway, I feel sad cause I had high expectations with this drama but it kinda disappointed me.
