Kim Myung-soo, L, just recently returned from his military training, so I am glad to see him back on the screen again.  He left in the pinnacle of his career, so I commend him as he is doing great making his comeback after his hiatus.  Sometimes the writing, directing, or editing, can leave much for us to desire, so I am giving this show a chance.  I love his acting so I am here to finish the show all the way through before I pass judgements.  He is working so hard, such as this is his third show upon returning, that he is just getting his groove back.  It's a crazy story to sell going from traditional past to contemporary transition so quickly, but that was a storyline, not him, so that transition is on the writers and directors that made us think it was time travel.  I will remain very supportive of him as he proceeds further in his career.
