Kim Jae Joong gave a strong impression on his first appearance. He even looks chaotic and performs the sad scene really well. He shows a stupid and a silly character. As the bride, Uee also has a complicated feeling toward Kim Jae Joong. Unfortunately, their fate is not easy, it is not enough to make this drama leave an impression.

The early developments were also considered disappointing. CG effects when entering the hole weren’t that good. But there are some funny points. In the midst of this waiting, there is Jung Hye Sung and Baro. They only appear briefly but the characters are unusual.

Can he steal the attention through his first appearance? If future developments are not exciting or it shows a boring time slip, it will become too ordinary for the viewers. The development to be given by ‘Manhole’ becomes its own homework.
