Episode 5
Park Jin Gyeom crashed into a lorry and ended up in 2010.
Episode 6
Min Hyuk met Tae-Yi who he developed a soft spot with because he looks so much like his girlfriend, Sun Young.
Tae-Yi’s only friend, who she gave a copy of the card to was murdered.
Episode 7
It is a bit creepy to have a romance between a son who is obsessed with his mother with his mother’s lookalike and then his father was also crushing with the same girl.
Somehow, the script was showing that his real mother approved of him with the older girl they met at the amusement park when he was little.
No this is wrong. You can’t shag your mother even if she was only a lookalike.
So I am afraid I am taking back my five stars for this drama and downgrade it to 3 stars.
It is upsetting because it started brilliantly with many twists and turn and the way he hugged TaeYi and cries every time because he saw him as his mother. You can’t just turn around and say he developed an Oedipal complex towards her. That is so disturbing.
Anyway, the man who part raised him may turn out to be the mysterious master.

This drama is so convoluted.
It turned out that Park Sun Young was killed by Park Jin Gyeom, her son.
With all the time traveling, it created an evil duplicate for some of the characters.

Episode 16
Yoon Tae-yi / Park Sun-young is so predatory, she can’t let go of the man who was her son, who she develops feelings for in a parallel universe. And when they jumped to another parallel universe, instead of staying away from him, she stalked him and in the end, he got so intrigued.
Whoa, he ends up with his mother. Yuck
It has so much potential to be a great sci-fi but the scriptwriters can’t help themselves from making this into a love story.
