I LOVE THEIR CHEMISTRY
everything is great, the plot twist, the actors, and the story plot. Even though I have many questions, but I recommend this drama. I'm still confused, why does the police catch "him" for murdering 11 person, but there are still 3 persons out of 11 reseter that's still alive. And also, the fact the woman and the old guy who asked a person to kill "that guy" before the reset, (and it succeeded) why would they even reset their lives. with "that guy" being dead at the beginning, those 11 persons are still alive, why would they even do a reset. To make their life better?But I like this drama because it makes me think and the story is hard to guess. Not really hard, but you won't get a clue before the hints.

Excellent thriller but needed more time travel
This show certainly keeps you on your toes. It's fast paced, unpredictable, and exciting. Very bingeable. Some of the 10 "resetters," who start getting killed off after they travel back in time one year to fix their lives, are just cannon fodder, but the majority of characters still manage to make an impression even when the busy plot doesn't leave a ton of time for character development. Deceptively crazy Se Rin was my favorite, loved her. The actual time travel element of the plot was underwhelming though. 90% of this just feels like a regular murder mystery, the time travel shaped the plot less than I expected and we spend too little time learning about how time travel works in this universe.Cet avis était-il utile?
and can we talk about the chemistry??? because EXCUSE ME I AM SO SATISFIED!!! this must be one of the best friends-but-we-actually-like-each-other trope that i've ever encountered that really gave them the perfect ending that they deserve. i was really wishing for even just a bit more skinship, even just a hug and they gave it during THOSE SCENE. i was like EXCUSE ME??????😭😭
i'll admit that i was devastated with the first half of the ending because i was like NOOOOO it can't be!!! and then they did THAT. i thought i would be really disappointed and frustrated but they redeemed it with that last scene. i love how unique, bitter, sweet and right the ending was.
of course there were some loopholes, but they didn't really bother me that much. it didn't take away the beauty of this drama. so if you're hesitating to watch, then don't think anymore and just watch it!
on my way to watch more Lee Joon Hyuk drama<3
1000000/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Don't Trust Anyone
What. A. Show.If you want to watch this show or are thinking of getting into it, give it 2-3 episodes. You don't get easily hooked in the first one, so you need a tad more to really get intrigued by the storyline.
I loved the twists and turns, and like all the other reviews say - DON'T TRUST ANYONE. I loved being baffled, having my jaw drop at some revelations and thoroughly enjoyed the story's pacing. There's obviously holes to it and confusions, which is why I can't give it a 10, but I enjoyed the acting so still want to give props to how everything was executed - and for fellow peeps to get a chance to watch.
There's nothing more I could truly say without spoiling, so just sit back, relax and get ready for a ride ;)

Too Fuss For Nothing!
This one has everything i love in a Drama.- Time Travel
- Crime
- Serial Killer
- Mystery
...Everything.In Theory!
Because when reality strikes you, it does really hard.
Reading the synopsis and see such a high rate i got "high" myself and couldn't wait to start it.
The first episodes were good until they weren't.The story seemed interesting and i was curious how will go on.Many characters introduced and i wanted to find out what threads tie them all,what troubled lives they lived and which fate brought them together.
And i was waiting..and waiting and everything went in circles without any serious reason or without any plausible explanation. It wasn't because of the Time Loops and Resets,though.Because iam so familiar with all these and if the script is good i have endless patience. But here i started to get bored.Like really bored.And i thought wtf,this suppose to be my cup of tea.This is the kind of Drama i never get bored watching.So what happened here?Have i watched too many i lost my interest?Or maybe this is not so good written and all the characters are not so attractive?Obviously the latter.Based ofc on my personal taste and criteria.
What Twists and Turns???Not for me.I was driving in a very straight and long road and i was hoping for a pit-stop ahead but...
Suspense was forced and fake.The cliffhanger at the end of many episodes was just too unbeliavable,unrealistic and ridiculous.Giving us multiple suspects/villains just to create suspense when obviously noone would believe that "A" was the killer,to me is just poor writing.Especially when in the very next ep, plot points towards "B" just for the next ep to point suspect "C". This is not how a good story unfolds.It doesn't give chills.Just laughter.Iam sorry,this is how i felt.
I really had many expectations and none fulfilled, thats why i sound too disappointed.
In my opinion the Time Travel element most of the time was unnecessary as it really not added much to the story.It was more like garnish or side dish.This show would be more interesting if the writers focused on create an evil character,a serial killer with depth,with dark past and history ,and involve the rest characters in a cat-mouse game.I wouldn't mind some clichés,it would be better than the course this story had.The idea of Reset was promising but at the end it didn't deliver.
The writers had some scattered thoughts inside their heads.Many of them were really good and inspired.Though they failed to turn them into an intriguing story.So they gathered all those thoughts in a messy canvas and they didn't even try to put them in some reasonable order.Remained scattered and confusing.To put this simple,they took pieces from different puzzle boxes and they tried to form a picture.Is this even possible?No, with Logic Laws this is impossible!
The targeted victims of the Serial killer,normally shouldn't had anything to do with the group participated in Reset.Why should they after all? Killer clearly had no idea about the group and the Resets.He finds out only at the end.And why on earth all connected in this web which simply doesn't make any sense?Killer's urge to kill should be irrelevant.But no,writers once again realized the big flaw here and decided to give a totally lame explanation one episode before the end.As if this could save all the f*** up mess of previous episodes. The "reason" of killings is entirely opposite of the idea of a "Serial Killer" as they ended to peddle them as a necessity to justify the connections.So the killer wasn't actually a psycopath but had to kill a dozen of people just because he learnt about Reset.A bunch of crap,if you ask me!Are you confused enough? Did i mention a poor writing??Yes,i did.That is why i talked about scattered thoughts.Writers were unable to sufficiently tie them all.Squeeze all and force to make sense it doesn't help.They made me question every line,every chatacter,every scene.Even my own sanity!Simple because everything was indeed questionable!There are other Dramas when this happens is the mind-blowing factor to say they are masterpieces.Here..not even close!
I don't know if iam the weirdo here or iam too demanding.No cohesion,no flow,just mess and frustration.
I wanted dark characters with twisted minds.With hidden secrets ready to kill and die.I wanted so much more than this.
Some mysterious music ,some shady chars barely scratching the surface of the psychopath character i wanted to see as the main Villain and some "suspicious smirks" weren't enough to excite me,to give me the wow factor and keep me at the edge of my seat.
I don't mind dropping bad Dramas but i usually don't do it , just because iam way too stubborn.
And this is the only reason i finished this.Because honestly i wanted to drop it several times.I had a small hope and was waiting for the big twist,which never came.
Nothing really was in a high level to give it some points.From music to acting and from production to direction,everything was average to good.Ok few credits to Ml's acting.He saved this part and thats why i gave 8.Otherwise the rest cast didn't do a great job.
The only detail i really loved was the showcases the killer kept his trophies.Very elegant and sophisticated choice!
As for the ending..It made me laugh hard.I guess that wasn't the purpose of the Drama,though....What i took from all this was that one man was bored with his life and just wanted to have some fun.That was the reason writers gave us.
Maybe iam too strict with this but in every review i write i try to be as objective as i can and ofc iam always honest about it.
I do not discourage you and i do not prevent you from watching it as my opinion is the least popular,obviously.But if after you watch it you have similar ideas,give me few heads-up,to make me feel less lonely!

"He did prove....thats there's no perfect crime."
What an amazing show!There is nothing much to complain about 365 Repeat the year.
To start with, this show is nothing for weak nerves. It doesn't flinch to show brutality if needed. The characters provoke the viewer permanently lie and irritate us till we don't know who is even trustable.
This show has so many twists and turns till every last moment, you are not allowed to blink and miss a single movement. Always keep telling the viewer to suspect everyone even so how obvious the situation might be. The goods turn bad and the bad turn good and turn bad again and then not. It's a back-and-forth of feeling.
Also, the only supernatural in this drama is the Time repeat of a year.
There are no super smart, strong or plot amour leads. The character feels realistic, approachable and relatable. The Cast is amazing they're playing the roles out of their mind not only the amazing lead but also the supports are phenomenal. The chemistry between the two main Leads is amazing as if their eyes have their own role. In my interpretation, there is defiantly romance between them. They're going through hell and the fear they had is 100% transferred to the viewer, goosebumps guaranteed.
The Story is simply top-notch. The built-up is obvious with the time repeat and the writer just skips the mid-part instead there are many mini finals in every episode till we get the big bang. To be honest I would like to see the culprits reveal at the big end but I wasn't so the reveal of the Murder felt a bit flat because we don't have enough time. Remember is only a 12 Episodes Drama.
Last but not least, personally this might be the best time travel Drama ever made. The writing is flawless the execution spotless. Perfect cast with amazing names who also deliver.
Overall if you are a fan of Mystery, Thriller this one is a perfect drama. Turn off your phone make the room dark and you will have an amazing time only a few dramas can deliver.

Good thriller with an interesting fantasy twist. Refreshing yet somewhat predictable.
A quite good thriller with an intriguing concept. The first half of the series was a bit slow and not that exciting despite the interesting thematic. The story required indeed at first introducing quite a bunch of characters as well as putting in place a lot of setup payoff. As a viewer, the second part of the show felt much more enticing as it was able to reap successfully all the elements built up in its first part.Overall, the show became more and more addictive with each episode passing. However, it is to be noted that even though the excitement was picking up, unfortunately, the reveals were less surprising as most of them were predictable. What the series gained in terms of thrills, it also lost it as well in terms of freshness and unexpectedness.
Regarding the actors' performances, most of them were good (with a specific mention to Lee Joon Hyuk who really impressed me in his role). In my opinion, the only flaw in the casting was Kim Jee Soo: the actress did not exude enough charisma and I had real trouble believing in her acting...and therefore to be invested in her narrative arc.
One of the very strong points of the show was its grey characters. Nobody is really black or white and it is a pleasure to discover them layer by layer. It was also great to follow the two main leads forming a brilliant (and consistent!) duo. They were smart and making all over the episodes logical decisions. I was particularly happy to see a competent cop for once, quite an unusual sight in K-drama world.
Directing-wise, I loved some of the choices done around the concept of time and to exacerbate the mystery. I also found that the OST as well as the background sound were matching really nicely the drama.
I would recommend this to people looking for an original thriller with a fantasy twist and a nice ensemble cast. If you like novels from Agatha Christie, you could really enjoy this as well.

Logic? What logic?
You know i actually thought it would be more about the time travel and how they live their year instead of it just being an one episode premise for a serial killer case of batshit crazy whodunnit with leads last people standing horror movie kinda vibe. It was actually a wild enjoyable rollercoaster until the last few episodes where it took an inane turn and turn and turn and never stopped spinning in its absurd plot twists for the plot twists sake anymore that the rollercoaster derailed and crashed in flames down a cliff. While i could not roll my eyes fast enough to spin along with all the waaaaaay too makjang-y events on screen happening. Characters acted all idiotic (save for the leads) believing everything they were told, and against their own interest with zero self preservation skills whatsoever as they walked alone outside at night with a serial killer at large. Because this is what you do when you know you are dead-flagged of course :) Logic has left the chat. In fact it was never really present in the storytelling to begin with.Like, there is a limit how ridiculous you can get with a story and its twists, even when the genre is fantasy/Sci fi. Or at least there should have been, since it would have been more believable and better constructed and not something from drawn from a cheap kbs daily drama plot-wise employing shocking twists for shock value only to construct a "tune in next" cliffhanger, logically held together by little more than spit and ductape. Sadly it had a sore lack of a white truck of doom trope for several of these a-holes within here that should have met the fate to make it actually entertaining. The leads were cute tho and actually smart, for once. Which sadly is a rarity in the thriller kdrama genre. I liked it till halfway through since i could not figure out why and where and who but then it started to get veeeeery nonsensical and goofy. Could not take it seriously, which is actually not a good hallmark for a thriller that tried to be all that it its tone. Resounding meeeeh. Even the mutt was stupid/useless and a brat (causing an accident as it constantly ran away.

Couldnt wait for it to end
In my opinion i think it has too many plot twists which made the whole thing confusing and watching it was so frustrating. I only continued watching because many people said it was "so amazing and underrated" apparently its not underrated, its not so popular as other korean dramas for a reason. And it became one of my kdrama regrets honestly, i shouldve dropped it. The ending was anticlimactic and boring😴 i started it so i can enjoy a good thriller instead i was just stressed out the whole time because its so confusing.The acting was great though no complaints.

Se fosse para resumir esse dorama em uma palavra diria “humano”, Porque se ver vários objetivos, valores, sentimentos. Ele foi a perfeita representação do ser complexo que é o ser humano, por isso me vi sentindo tudo com tão realismo, não tenho como detalhar muito sem entregar nada, mas me vi em uma sinuca de bico sobre quem confiar e com pelo menos quatro suspeitos, a cada episódio revezava sobre quem desconfiava mais. Tudo com efeito borboleta, lei de Murphy, premonição e viagens no tempo, cheios de desdobramentos e plot twist que em nenhum momento foi cansativo ou arrastado.
A verdade sendo dita foi tão perfeito que tive medo que a perfeição estragasse as respostas das questões levantadas, mas me enganei, ainda bem, tudo explicado nos mínimos detalhes e nem sei como colocar o quanto me surpreendi.
