Definitely Recommend!
For me, this was an amazing drama. The story is exactly the kind of thing I love - reincarnation, lovers reunited in different times etc - and I know a lot of people didn't like the love triangle, but I think it added to the suspense between episodes, plus everyone picks a favourite to win, so you have to watch until the end to find out who that will be.I took away one star for the acting simply because the female lead was so generic, but I've never seen the actress in anything else so I don't know if that's just the way they scripted her to be or not, but she just felt a bit flat at times, but it didn't affect how enjoyable the show was at all, because it was amazing.
For the soundtrack, it was quite slow tempo and unmemorable, but it matched the show's atmosphere, so it still worked well.
I think I probably will end up rewatching this in a year or so's time when my memory of it becomes a little hazy. 🙂

Very addictive
I really loved this drama and watched it really quickly. As always, Ji Chang Wook is a masterpiece, Bibi's character felt just like her but not like her at the same time, and Wi Ha Joon was great, too. I completely forgot he was meant to be the bad guy, to be honest.The only thing I didn't like was the very last episode. I'll be honest, I didn't like the ending. There was one particular decision made that made me think "WHY??" but maybe some people understood why he did it better than me. I liked that the ending was realistic between Junmo and Euijung, though.
Overall, I'd recommend it! 👍🏻

Totally Gripping
First of all, I know a lot of people have said that the ending lets it down, and it's true that it could have been better and it was cliché, but at the same time, it's not TERRIBLE, and to me it didn't matter because the rest of the drama was AMAZING and more than made up for it.The casting was great (all the guys were hot?! I'm shallow, sorry), and the way it was written kept you going from loving someone to doubting them and then loving them again.
It truly was a rollercoaster and I would definitely recommend it. Even if you're someone who despises clichés - like I normally do - I'd say give it a watch anyway because it might surprise you how much you enjoy it! :)

Started okay, but stopped being interesting
I started this drama because it was really popular at the time, so I thought "oh, it must be good", but I didn't enjoy it.I liked the initial storyline of Seo Joon's character fighting this rich guy's evil son and going to prison for it then vowing revenge, but then the whole plot just kinda falls flat and stops being interesting. You keep thinking something's going to happen that will surprise you and it just doesn't.
I didn't like the character of the female lead at all. She was just annoying. Nothing against the acting there, just hated the character.
Not Park Seo Joon's finest acting, but I guess that's because the script didn't give him much to work with because I think he was alright in Hwarang. His expression just never seemed to change from straight-faced.
But no, from my point of view, I wouldn't watch it again.

Dull and stiff
I had to drop it in the end, I was just so bored. The characters were so hard to like, and they had zero chemistry. Takara was actually the more likeable one and he had no expression at all.I get that they were trying to portray the awkwardness of a first love, and the story itself had potential, but they didn't manage it, in my opinion.
And what's with the weird filters?? Especially on Amagi.
It's not something I'd recommend to anyone looking for something to enjoy and become absorbed in, but it seems to appeal to people who like fluffy (in this case nothingy) romance.
