Dr. Jin is pretty much the poster child for why time-travel into the past is the worst idea ever

In 20 minutes' screentime (or a few hours of time within the drama). I always thought people who longed to travel into the past were nuts and am glad to see this drama bear me out (not that Jin wanted to travel back...)

I honestly have no idea why I am enjoying this drama - objectively speaking, it's not particularly good. I think I just find it relaxing mindless viewing - take today - I was much too brain-dead to try to watch Bridal Mask or even Big but Dr. Jin fit the bill nicely and was quite soothing as it is a completely undemanding show that yet doesn't have any characters or tropes that irritate me. In fact, I quite like the protagonists...

Yup. It's not fun being a period person.

I've been doing a lot of "relaxing mindless viewing" lately. Often it's what I need :)

Yup, it's relaxing.

My issues are not with the time traveling - it's just such a weaksauce version of JIN that I failed out after two episodes.

I just find its braindeadness relaxing :) Usually braindead dramas are shrill and this one is not.
