W -gateway between Kdrama and dark Anime.

One of the better gateways between Kdarama & Anime!
This is an unsung creative gem from acting, to chemistry to plot line and production.

Kdramas in general struggle with the scifi aspect / accuracy of story telling in general. W manages to create a unique view and entrance to overlapping 2 worlds or realities for our charaters and their story. Yes, there are a few holes where the plot lime is weak and needs a bit more audience imagination to follow through. But overall, this does pretty well. The matial arts / fights scenes can be a bit over the top. But other scenes like hospital scenerios or our new couple figuring things out and enjoying their fate make up for the holes (IMO).

Our main leands do have credible chemistry if a bit silly at times, given that is is a show where reality meets fantasy.
Here we meet younger leads- Lee Jong Suk (ML- Kang Chul) and Han Hyo Joo (FL- O Yeon Ju). Though I wish we saw much more development in our supoorting charater arcs by Lee Tae Hwan, Park Won Sang and Jung Eugene.
Give it a watch and share your thoughts too.
