STORY:
I'll preface this by mentioning I had watched the C-drama remake of this before watching the original. The original version, in my opinion, definitely outranked the remake. While I definitely enjoyed both versions, the Korean version was much better at keeping things flowing and interesting with no parts of it feeling draggy or annoying. The story itself is intriguing for sure - time traveling scholar who falls in love with a modern day girl, but really, I think my favorite part of the whole drama was the main actress.
ACTING:
Yoo In Na - really shined for me as the bright star of this drama. Her bubbly and adorable disposition was so fitting for this drama, but she nailed her sad and emotional scenes as well. Especially compared to Zheng Shuang (C-drama lead), you moved past the cute, pretty girl, and really got a great personality out of the K-drama version. She was funny, sarcastic, strong headed at times, etc. She felt like a real person and not just a cookie cutter main lead.
Ji Hyun Woo - honestly a little hit or miss for me at times. Overall I liked him as an actor and he did a good job, but there were many times watching him that he just had this odd facial expression and you couldn't tell if he was happy, sad, etc. A few moments, I think his timing was a little off - he'd take too long to reply or react to something, and it made me feel a little awkward at times. Overall though, especially towards the end when he was more accustomed to the modern world, he definitely became a good partner for Yoo In Na.
Kim Jin Woo - small shoutout to Han Dong Min because he really did a great job as well. He was great being the playful playboy, but you could feel his sincerity at wanting to get back together with Choi Hee Jin. And his scenes where he gets angry felt real and not like he was acting, which is a bonus.
REWATCH:
I'd definitely rewatch this one again sometime soon. It's only 16 episodes so nothing too hard to get finished in a few days, and honestly it's a well balanced drama that has its funny and entertaining moments as well as sad and emotional moments.
