I tried
Not sure what to like about the show. I started it with so much hope.Amazing scenery being set in Finland.
But I had trouble buying into the chemistry of the 2 leads. And when the drama is entirely about their relationship that is particularly troubling.
Pace of the drama was way too slow - each of them staring at each other, first awkwardly then lovey dovey. Same for the supporting cast looking at them. It's almost laughable. I bore with it will episode 25 and then started skipping the remaining 5.
Them playing snooker started of as a simple plot tool, but the shots/scenes of them playing got repetitive/same and I wasn't sure of what the point of the snooker was. It was always the on table camera shot of them hitting the ball and pocketing it. And they were either winners or runners up in All tournaments.
The last episode was to have been wildy romantic but I could not ignore the poor attempt dubbing the singing of Leo Wu and cue collage of all their scenes in the entire drama.

A Sincere, heartwarming experience
Look past the obvious pitfall of a story like that - the time slipping, which is the key to the story and it will be a very very very enjoyable experience.I started the series with no expectations whatsoever, having not read the webtoon it is based on or read any reviews. What started as a tentative dip of toes into this series ended up with a binge watch AND a rewatch immediately.
The story starts with a super fan who was saved from suicide by an idol and how she travels back through time to save him from his death. In the process of trying to save him, she discovers alot of forgotten memories and feelings and learns how he was/is a person who has always been in her life. The result of their realizations is an innocent love that transcends time and space. Its a simple yet very compelling narrative.
The soundtrack sung by the actor himself (as a member of the idol group he is part of in the show) is great. Kim Hye Yoon was amazing - yes she cries in every episode but each tear conveys a different emotion and she is the reason why this series works, she makes Byeon Woo Seok look so good, and now they are both on my radar.
In conclusion - this is one of the best series i have watched so far and is highly recommended.
