Pain is never permanent

I've always been attracted to time travel stuff, but it's so hard to find a drama that portrays it so well that to be honest, this one really got me. First of all, we start the drama seeing how well and fine our ML is, with his "perfect" life since he accomplished everything he wanted because he was the best student in the whole school. But the thing is: his life is far from perfect, he's brooding over the past because the girl he loved simply k word herself, when they were teenagers.

Kyung Hwi (the ML) is now living by the automatic control: he goes to his work, treat patiens (he's a doctor) and talk to his best friend who also is his brother-in-law. And one day, his sister just tells him to go on a blind date, but he doesn't accept it since he's still in love with Han Na Bi (our FL and also, his lover who died), even though it's been 10 years after her death. Kyung talks and drinks with his bestie and his sister and goes to Nabi's father pub which he's closing and selling because he's tired and feeling guilty over her death. Kyung drinks more at this place and finds Nabi's diary which he discoveries that she was really sad and guilty over something that nobody knew. Kyung then listens to a song which asks him: "Is there someone you wanna meet when you go back?" and he answers "Nabi", that's when he sees her and follows this kind of "mirage" and suddenly, blacks out.

That's when our story begins.

Kyung Hwi is, definitely, madly in love with Nabi and we can see that throughout the whole drama. All the things he changes for her, all the things he does so he can get closer and understand how everything happened to her and, the most important thing: how he does everything to make her understand that she matters and that she's loved. We can see through the flashback scenes how he was so coward because he was bullied, but 28yrs Kyung Hwi is mature and when he comes back he shows that. I loved how he could care less about the bullies who frightened his life in his 18y, but now his main mission was just make Nabi pass through her death date.

Nabi was amazing, I really loved how sassy, but sensitive she was. She would always pay back in the same coin the bullies when she caught them doing bad things, but she also would feel sad if someone who she thought that cared for her, do the same thing as them. Nabi had parenting issues and trust issues, but not just that, anxiety and depression because of the reason she k word herself.

At first, I really didn't expect that Nabi's death was su!c1d3 and even the reason is somehow astonishing. And how the story goes and we just keep discovering everything with Kyung Hwi, it really makes us feel his pain and his anxiety to make her live. I really felt it all. But the ending was really unexpected, and seriously, I really wish we could have a s2 just as the chinese version has lmao

The conclusion is: even when life gets hard, we have someone who cares for us, and even though we don't see it or even though we don't know it, we always have someone. If we exist, it's because we're needed, we just need to surpass the obstacles and everything gets better. It's hard to believe, but trust me (and this drama), in the end we'll be seeing a sunset and then a moon in the sky, and in the next day we'll be experiencing new things and learning that, somehow, nothing matters, but our own life.
