Personal Feedback
I'll start with the actors — The actors did a really great job portraying their characters. It's like it was made especially for them to act. From the female lead crying and acting tough and the male lead acting like an idol, swimmer, etc.., to the antagonists annoying the hell out of me. Bonus point to that is the chemistry of everyone.For the plot — I have seen other K-Drama with the same "time-traveling" plot, but this one added some twist & turns on it. It kept me on edge until the end. Usually, when I watch K-Drama, I skip 1/4 of its scenes as there are of course awkward and cringey scenes but this one, if you're into sweet, kind-of childish couple, you would find yourself watching almost every part of it without skipping.
Finally, for the storyline — Of course, this isn't a perfect one. You would still find holes in the story such as "why is the grandma like this" or "why is the watch the "portal"" but I guess that might get answered by the Season 2.
Overall, it's not a new concept of K-Drama, but it does deserve the hype.

A Different Review
I didn't know this was ongoing when I started watching it, so when I searched it up before starting the last episode, I found a lot of "has potential but wasted" reviews. Personally, it isn't even that bad nor wasted. I really love these types of series/movies. I didn't know why viewers placed a big amount of expectations to this one and expected the crew, casts, and producers to meet those expectations.Comparisons of this to other K-Dramas — They expected this one to be at "the same level" of The Glory when that series spins off not only to a school, students, but also families which this drama doesn't do. This drama spins off on teacher-student relationships and peer-to-peer relationships at most.
Actors — The actors and their chemistry are actually shocking. Their acting fits each other so well that I forget most of the time that this is a drama. They portrayed what friends are going thru most of the time, and if you've experienced having a fall-out with your friends and talking again, you would relate to this.
Story — Again, I don't think just because this series has a good amount of budget, doesn't mean you should expected the revenge parts to be The Glory "level" since from the beginning, the camera didn't focus on just one character. It showed the point of view of every character that even the viewers didn't know who the female lead would end up with.
Overall, I love it. It really gives off the "Elite" series vibes from Spain but with a 16+ rating rather than 18+ rating. Maybe this is just a transition for the next season? That's why it isn't that heavy? Neither way, I'm excited for the next possible season cause I am sure that the last episode wasn't the last.
