COVID-19 really put me in the mood for cruising through some new dramas, so Someday or One Day, with its extremely high rating, was on my watchlist. I was excited getting to see Patrick Shih again, since I liked his performance in HIStory II. But boy, was I wrong in trusting the ratings!

I have to say the writer was really trying too hard to come up with an original/new plot with the time traveling idea. The storyline, in essence, became a massive muddy blackhole. I got highly annoyed with the female lead, I felt that her characters stay stuck, especially Huang Yu Xuan--the only thing she could do was cry and cry about her ex-boyfriend. The male leads were doing a better job, I must say.

It was extremely slow in the beginning, that even adjusting the playback speed to 1.5x would still feel slow. The middle got a little bit more interesting as there were more action developing. However, as mentioned previously, the story then became an overly complicated mess. That really destroy the emotional investment in the characters/drama up to then. So much that I had to skip over one episode and jump to the last episode, and I am glad I did.

Overall, highly disappointed storyline. Acting was meh to alright. Definitely not worthy for re-watch, in my opinion.
