Overall just ok!
I had great expectations with this drama but it turned out to be just ok.The unique plot carried me away...............A zombie + humor........... I thought it would be a great blend, but they failed to hold up these two things together.
I was hoping for strong comic punch threads and the setup offered it as well but they didn't take it.
It could be a great blow if they had picked up.
The story had great strength in it but again they failed to deliver it properly.
Acting retained good only good that's it.
If you've nothing to watch then you should try this but if you're looking for a good show then try something else.

Also HATE the fake movie scenarios, they're 12eps as is and half of this and last eps were filler with fake silly and disgusting movie brother in law ideas
it is an oldie so it is excused for the lack of essence but it was so bad..
Tbh I can laugh at the jokes but the plot is meh to me
Ml is bland, fl is an idiot who'd have murdered someone with her helmet stunt and her voice is annoying

A fun, feel-good adventure!
I’m going to start this review off by saying I LOVED this show! There are tons of amazing kdramas out there, but so many of them are dark and gritty to the point of being hard to watch at times. Don’t get me wrong, I love my crime thrillers, but Zombie Detective came along at the perfect time for me. This show was such a breath of fresh air!Zombie Detective is a unique story about a man (Choi Jinhyuk) who dies and wakes up as a zombie. He has no memories of who he once was, nor how he came to be a zombie. He must learn to navigate the human world (which proves to be quite the challenge) and seeks the help of a reporter (Park Joohyun) to uncover the truth behind his lost identity, as well as his very existence.
I would classify this show as a comedy overall, but it’s also so much more than that! There’s mystery, intrigue, excitement, and even a bit of romance. Zombie Detective also has one of my favorite OSTs. The main track, Be Ok by I’ll, is so hauntingly beautiful and will definitely make you feel all the emotions. Seriously, I can’t recommend this show enough!

CLEVER, ZOMBIE CUTENESS
I really enjoyed this! It is probably my favorite zombie series / movie, and I'm NOT really a fan of the zombie genre. This was incredibly witty, adventurous, and funny. It had such a great vibe and so much out-of-the-box creativity. There was a bit of dark humor and a few serious parts as well. Unfortunately, the romance was only implied, so nothing ever actualized. The ending was left open in that way. I would've added a star to my rating if the main leads had developed romantically and had at least one kiss. However, this drama was done amazingly, even without the lovey-dovey stuff. Choi Jin-hyuk as a zombie 🧟♂️ might be my favorite role he's played. He was SO cute when he smiled in anticipation about eating tripe. Omg, he's handsome 😍 and his zombie-smile is pure sunshine that melted me. The melodic rock soundrack by artist "I'll" was AWESOME. I love the main song, "Be Ok".Was this review helpful to you?
open ending
i don't even remember how I found out about this drama like it isn't one of the popular dramas eveyeone talks about but it was good toand it was pure comedy
I never really expected to watch anything about a self aware zombie 😂 but it was fun watching this and there was a bit of chemistry between the actor and actress but ofc it couldn't work like he was dead ?! also I kind of expected for him to die and rest in peace at the end of the drama and stop being a zombie but they didn't do that and just let him be a zombie forever which I kinda didn't like coz why would you leave my poor guy to be a zombie forever imagine how lonely and bored he must've felt

Funny, Easy and also Interesting
I honestly have to say, this is probably not the most meaningful, emotional, or shocking drama but I love it with all my heart. It's light-hearted, funny, a little bit of horror but in the best way.The characters work so well with each other, the story has a great pace and I laughed a lot. I even watched it with my boyfriend, who typically doesn't watch K-Dramas and he really liked it. It's great to relieve stress and the actors do an amazing job. I definitely want to recommend it if you like funny, easy, and mysterious dramas with great chemistry and fast-paced plots

One of the best supernatural comedy shows
I will keep it short - just watch itCompletely underrated show. I was looking for something like that for 1.5 years. Very goofy, great detective story, character development.
Everything is perfect.
The show gave me similar vibes to fiery priest, bad and crazy, and alchemy of souls

good to binge watch
did not have any expectations going in this for better or worse thought of a fluff price of a kdrama..... but i was intrigued by the 1st of 2 main storyline.Watched it only because the ML was in Mr Queen so i was kinda backtracking all his kdramas to watch and this was on my list. 12 episodes was a easy binge.
light hearted nothing too heavy and lotsa side characters that are pretty funny. plus I like the fact that its only twelve epidoes instead of the normal sixteen episodes.
Watch it if you are a fan of the ML..... the FL was .... meh nothing really stands out about her..... the second ML , the first story male antagonist and the rival detective agency characters were much better than her !!!

Dommage
Cela aurait pu être une très bonne série : le concept est intéressant, un zombie qui ne veut pas manger les humains, qui a un odorat super développé, et qui mène des enquêtes ! Seulement voilà, il n'y a que 3 vraies enquêtes, un format avec une par épisode aurait été génial !De plus les personnages sont trop exagérés :
La soeur ne fait que crier ou taper voire les deux ! Elle est maquillée outrageusement et a des rouleaux de papier toilette comme bigoudis (est-ce censé faire rire ?), mon conseil, dès que vous la voyez, accélérez (on ne perd rien) !
Les détectives voisins sont juste des clowns, avec des habits ridicules, et même avec des bruitages, ils ne font pas rire (d'ailleurs on ne rit pas dans cette série sauf peut-être si on est un enfant).
La FL fonce dans le tas toute la série, quel dommage l'actrice ne méritait pas cela.
Heureusement il y a le ML, personnage bien écrit et très bien joué par Choi Jin Hyuk.
L'autre personnage bien écrit est Cha Do Hyun, bien joué également par Kwon Ha Woon
C'est une série où l'intelligence ne brille pas, mais quelques épisodes sont bien, la fin est ouverte, et aurait pu laisser place à une autre saison

Detetive zombie é mesmo detetive?
Quando se ouve falar em zombies, os coreanos ama, mas eu não.Primeiramente eu pensei que seria uma perda de tempo assistir, mas por curiosidade eu vi um ano depois da sua estreia e mais tarde faço esta resenha.
Primeiramente o ator Choi Jin Hyuk está de parabéns por interpretar maravilhosamente o zombie. que inicialmente não consegue andar muito bem e nem falar. Aos poucos ele consegue controlar a sua cede por cérebros. Mesmo sendo um zombie o seu cérebro funciona muito bem.
Uma coisa que me deixou um pouco triste é que o zombie não faz juz ao nome da série. Ele não é detetive, quem é o detetive maior parte é a Gong Sun Ji, isso me deixou um pouco triste, mas mesmo assim eu me diverti com as partes cómicas, que a série apresenta.
O final não me agradou muito, talvez porque não estava á espera, mas eu amei a atuação dos detetive rivais do detetive zombie, que estranhamente acreditavam que o zombie fosse mesmo o Moo Young. Eu achei isso demasiado forçado e irreal, mesmo o verdadeiro Moo Young esconder-se atrás de uma barba, ele e o zombie deveriam ter um físico diferente além do formado do rosto ser diferente e ninguém conhecia o Moo Young?
Para mim a série peca um pouco aí, mas eu entendo que esse não seja o ponto principal. E também achei hilário ao mesmo tempo estranho, que possa existir uma cura para o zombismo.
*Considerações finais*
É divertido ver a série, mesmo o zombei sendo zombie, ele ainda é inteligente. No geral eu diverti-me a assistir.

Como já disse antes o tema zumbi não me chama atenção, porém amo ver temas que fazem alguém precisa aprender autocontrole, a única vez que vi algo sobre foi o filme Warm Bodies, aliás acho que a maquiagem teve uma inspiração daí.
Amo a luta própria do protagonista contra sua natureza e sua perseverança em voltar a ser humano começando cuidando de seu caminhar e falar. Ele sempre parecia analisar a pergunta “O que é ser humano?” De certa forma senti que teve uma inspiração em Frankenstein. Então mesmo sendo comédia, foi bem profundo em certos momentos.
Sei que a mistura de comédia, mistério e drama pode parecer não dar certo, mas foi tão bem explorado que foi de culto religioso obsessivo, assassinato para situações cômicas como as vezes em que o principal zoava de si mesmo. Porém quando um dos grandes mistérios foi resolvido, faltando alguns episódios, fiquei preocupada, mas então percebi que usaram os últimos para explicar a origem de tudo. Fiquei tão envolvida que até esqueci essa parte.
O final foi bom, não vi o que reclamar, tirando a atuação do vilão final ter me incomodado. Se tiver outra temporada eu amaria com certeza.
