Mouse

A town of Mouse?

I have just finished watching all 23 episodes. This is a first for me, to watch a series where everyone is either a killer (either by inciting the killing, or purposefully or coercively take part in the crime), a victim or both. For those who have not killed, there is at least one person they passionately wish to kill and it does not matter if they are mothers/gov leaders, detectives, family friends....

So many serial killers all living in the same area, crossing paths as if the whole town was made of killers. There is also very little to explain how does THE MAIN killer/predator gets to know his victims well enough to apply his version of the deadly sins judgment (Some of them are shown as if the killer is prowling/ stumbles upon them, follows them and then kill them right then and there--if that is the case, for example, how does he know if they are lazy or not?).

Episode 2-12 episodes were very frustrating as I could not find one decent person. The brain story was too much for me, they should have used something less dramatic, like a bone marrow transplant which actually changes the DNA of someone.

No one is really relatable or likable, the only normal person seems to be Park Jun Hyun's character. Also, despite his flaws, it is really not possible to dislike Le Hee Joon's character (his story line is quite compelling and his acting is really top notch). The first episode and the last 5/6 episodes were the most captivating for me.

And all that said, I was so moved by the acting of both the main characters and the supporting cast, that I would recommend others this series.

Interesting drama Indeed.

I would say that Mouse was able to reach the expectation that I have set for it though there are some parts where I wish its much more unique rather than predictable. This drama is definitely something that is worth watching though sometimes felt dragging, due to its theme and the serious nature. Regardless, it was a very solid drama, where the acting is on point, the plot was somewhat predictable (e.g. Bareum being the killer) but I really like the concept of integrating the "Lab Mice" concept to people and obviously it is not morally acceptable but its a fresh concept in a K-Drama given that the theme of murder and serial killings is common.

Mouse; two different shows combined together

So.... it's been a couple of weeks since I finished watching it. Still don't know what I think about it.
That show is... it should have been a couple of seasons. I think, honestly, that is the reason a lot of people who watched this show feel like it's a mess. It's because the first half of the show felt like a completely different show from the other half. Honestly, the first half was ok. Not bad, but not good enough for 8.8 rating.
Then the second half came and everything changed. I don't remember a lot of shows that the second half was actually far better than the first. Usually it's the other way around. It almost felt like the writer got bored with his own story and decided to change it completely.
The second half was great. I needed this. The problem was that everything was rushed; they did not explore enough things. It was like they finally understood how to make this show great, but didn't have enough episodes to do it because they wasted it in the first half.
I cried at the end of it, and I'm not a person that usually does it. This is why I find it so hard to love this show - it brought so many emotions in me but only from a certain point. All in all - I think you should watch this show.

This is my top 2 Kdrama I've ever watched

This is my top 2 Kdrama of all time behind Dr.Romantic.
This Kdrama is super good that every ending of 20 episodes will make you watch another one🤭.I love the whole cast,thanks to them they gave us a whole new amazing story. I recommend that everyone should watch this especiially if they watched serial killers documentary,this Kdrama has it! I love this Kdrama even it has no good music that I like and that's how I love this Kdrama. In terms of rewatching it I will say that 40% possibility that I will rewatch it because there is no mystery and guessing what will happen next in the story.

a masterpiece

I do not usually leave reviews like this on any show that I watch, just a short comment about whether or not I enjoyed a certain show or not but I felt like I had to write one this time. I started watching Mouse for the first time in March this year but the length of the episodes kind of threw me off at first. The only show I watched that had 1 hour and 20-30 minute long episodes was Crash Landing On You and it took me a while to get used to that. Other than the length of the episodes, I also had a hard time getting interested in this show because I found the first two episodes quite uninteresting so I decided not to continue it because I had many other shows to start and finish so I just decided to drop it. Around September, I started seeing more and more content about Mouse and I was thinking about giving it a chance again even though I already knew who the actual killer was, which kind of ruined the whole experience for me but thankfully there were still some suprises. Anyway, I did start to watch it again and this time I did not drop it and managed to finish all 20 episodes, including one of the episodes from the special, which was very useful because it showed how Jung Ba Reum committed the m+rders.
What did I really think about Mouse?
Well, I believe that it is one of the best thriller/crime kdramas I have ever seen. Other than the top-notch acting and interesting storyline I think that this show had no flaws. Suprisingly, I did not really hated anyone, other than the woman who was behind everything because the fact that she toyed with people and let innocent people die aóbut still got pardoned enranged me quite a bit but oh well. The ending made me really sad though, I tried not to have any sort of symphathy towards Ba Reum but I did feel quite sorry for him towards the end. He was a bad person indeed but after the brain surgery he did start to change although that does not really cancel out the fact that he m+rdered so many innocent people. I think him dying was quite fair for him. I am really glad that all the characters who went through so much got their happy ending.
I do not really have much else to say, but I'd recommend everyone to watch this show because it is really worth it. If you are a fan of crime dramas then this is definitely for you.
It has a lot of triggering things in it though, so I would not recommend it to people who can not really take stuff like that. (For example animal cruelty etc..)

chills!!!

little late to the party but holy shit 😭this is not just a muder mystery kinda show its a cinematic manipulation to the viewer which makes it 10x better than any show under the same category. i cant express how many times this show has left me shocked and speechless. every single thing that appeared on camera had a role in making the show way more jaw dropping that it alrdy is. props to whoever came up with this masterpiece. the only reason this isnt a 10 for me is because of choi hongju and go muchi’s lovestory that didnt get to see the light of day 😔😔 other than that this show had left chills all over my body with every single episode!! highly recommended for murder mystery lovers!

the fast and furious of kdramas if fast and furious involved serial killers and genetic experiments.

Of course, "Mouse" isn't perfect. There are times when it's so over-the-top that it's hard to take it seriously, and there are plot holes big enough to drive a truck through. But honestly, that's part of what makes it so fun. "Mouse" is the kind of show that's so wild that you just have to go along for the ride. And let me tell you, Bareum's got some serious demons. Like, "I talk to my dead mom and have hallucinations" kind of demons.
One of the best things about "Mouse" is the characters. Lee Seunggi is amazing as the best friend of the protagonist - he's so good that you almost forget he's supposed to be a bad guy. And the protagonist himself is a hot mess but somehow, you can't help but root for him.
This show has everything: a rookie cop, a psychopathic killer, and enough twists and turns to make your head spin. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom.
