Watching this show is like entering a room filled with weed smokers and you're suddenly getting high just from inhaling the air.
So many action scenes too. Wasted two hours of my time understanding the plot and I'm not even complaining.
Consider me entertained.- 2

We have an unexpected twist (the recorded convo) to settle the big mystery, although with a loophole, like how was HW not be punished for hiding the evidence of murder.
He wasn't punished because the murder of DJ happened 20 years ago. The statute of limitations for murder cases, at the time, was 15 years. HW and SJ cannot be held accountable - even with the confession with the recording submitted as evidence.
Prior 2007, it was 15 years.
Past 2007, it is now 25 years.
DJ died in 2004.

I actually like the ending. I know that most people won't like it. It's definitely different from the novel / webtoon. It's definitely more grounded.
SpoilerThe opening of the episode was confusing and it plays into the parallel of having a bedridden patient being inconscious for an extended period of time. A lot of inconscious people would tell you time feels warped - hence the possibility of having the feeling of living a lifetime only to wake up some days later.
Just like someone who goes under anesthesia for surgery and wakes up 5 hours later but time felt extremely disproportionate for the patient.
It feels the writer respected the common rules of time travel and the message from present pop culture is that death / past cannot be cheated. Everything Do Jun did until his time of death already happened. It's not a different universe. It's the same timeline.
Everyone thought HW as DJ cheated in the past - but in the finale, it confirms the events have already taken place. HW was deeply traumatized because he was the accomplice behind his own future death as DJ - the ressemblance of DJ's face to HW, the whole cover-up and trauma, that's why the main protagonist couldn't remember the details of the accident. It's guilt for the concept of repentance - the idea of sacrificing himself to avenge his reborn self.
There's an interesting aspect that common pop culture on time travel - one of the common rules is that the future self cannot directly meet the past self - Affecting the past self means the future self won't be able to exist. DJ's accident was meant to happen no matter what.
I didn't mind the romance too much - after all, it's a Korean drama. It's an optional addition. Prosecutor Seo Min Young - we understand why she's nicknamed as the Grim Reaper of Soonyang. Her personal goal was to avenge her fiance's death. The romance was definitely not the best part of the show. Although, I didn't mind. There's definitely a lack of chemistry between the two leads. Despite that, I felt the writer wanted DJ's family & friends to mourn their way respectfully - even for the romance - left with the open possibility for the two lovers to meet again if they are meant for each other (should prosecutor Seo figures out the pieces left by HW as DJ).
So kudos to the show's writer to not cave in to the fanbase and sticking to the plan of delivering her own conclusion of this story.- 2

Also the credit card crisis/issue... why are the people blaming the business? Because they were misled to get more card to pay off another and their debt just grew? Shouldn't this be the responsibility of the individual?
I find it quite funny that there is a parallel going on with the United States.- 3

The actor who plays the grandpa should receive an award. In episode 14, the footage left for Do Jun. It was incredible.

It's rare to see you post @Soju.
Were there any dramas in recent years that you think are as good as this? Imma check those out lol.
I've been trying to maintain several communities while working full time.
I haven't watched a lot of kdramas as of late. The latest I've binged was the remake of Money Heist (La Casa del Papel).
I love the intrigue behind Reborn Rich, it represents my world in an extreme form - plenty of corporate shenanigans. The pacing is slow, mysterious, and cerebral.- 2

Vincenzo's screenwriter is definitely on crack. It's all over the place and yet, the story makes sense thus far.

Welcome to the Members Shop!
We are really excited to bring this feature for the community.
It has been a project worth of months in the making!Janghaven is offering a new economy system for our registered members to purchase items in our shop!
This economy system will offer a digital currency called "Haven Points".
How to earn Haven Points- Daily Log in (+2 points)
- Starting a thread (+10 points)
- Reply to a thread (+2 points)
- Thread Starter for each post made by anyone (+1 point)
- Joining a club (+10 points)
- Posting a status (+1 point)
- Reply to a status (+1 point)
- New registration (+10 points)
Please note earning post reactions do not grant Haven Points and it is impossible to make that happen!
As of now, Haven Points cannot be purchased with real fiat currency or cryptocurrency.
How to lose Haven Points
- Leaving a club (-20 points)
- 1 Warning Points (-5 points)
- 2 Warning Points (-25 points)
- 3 Warning Points (-125 points)
- 4 Warning Points (-625 points)
- 5 Warning Points (-3125 points)
The Warning System will be reset 365 days after your last received warning. Within 365 days, losing Haven Points via warning points are cumulative.
Let's say if you receive a warning point on day 50, you will lose 5 points. If you receive 2 warning points for a higher offense on day 300, you will lose -125 points because you have earned 3 warning points within the allocated year.
This deducting system was put in place to encourage members adopting a good behavior within the community and acts as a deterrent for trolls and spammers.
Banking System
Members will be able to store their points in their own personal bank and earn compounded interest to be credited monthly. There are no deposit or withdrawal fees and the feature is absolutely free with the Members Shop.
Current Monthly Interest Rates
- Members and Titled Members = +5%
- Staff & OG Members = +10%
The Shop
The Shop will contain several items available for purchase. As of now, we can only offer medals. As the Members Shop is further being developed, the staff will add games and new account unlockables!
Prices
Static Medals: 120 points
Animated Medals: 150 points
Special Medals: Variable
Gifting System
In addition to the shop and the banking system, we have added a gifting option for members. Whoever feels generous can donate their purchased / unclaimed items to other members of the community.
Seasonal Content
Members will encounter seasonal items from the shop. Every seasonal item is a limited-time purchase. Our very first seasonal content is a mashup of community-based created medals featuring the most popular/recent dramas & couples.
Upcoming items in the shop may retire some inventory from prior seasons and archived content can be purchased through a discounted store to be rotated on a regular basis.
-----
We acknowledge that is a lot to take in and the staff members at Janghaven are really excited to bring this into the community!
The Members Shop will launch on Monday, February 22, 2021
Enjoy & stay safe Havenites!

Hello, Havenites!
As we went along building our website, we have forbidden the use of embed Instagram content since our launch due to two lawsuits in the United States in regards of sharing original copyrighted content - putting a risk to members of our community.
As of today, we are now authorizing the sharing of embed content from Instagram on JangHaven.
On September 21st 2020, Facebook has updated their terms of agreement in the use of their products including Instagram. They have also announced publicly and released a tool of Rights Manager empowering content creators to protect their pictures, including those embedded somewhere else.
This creates a precedence for content creators. They must be aware that such feature exists. If they are sharing their pictures through their social media platforms without applying this security measure, they are held personally responsible for their own sharing settings.
For more info: https://about.fb.com/news/2020/09/helping-creators-and-publishers-manage-their-intellectual-property/
Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Can I share my findings with any participant?
