A great take on love and chaos
I wasn’t sure what to expect from Newtopia, but after watching the first two episodes, I can say it’s already pulling me in. The mix of romance, action, and zombies is definitely something different, and I like how they’re balancing the emotional moments with the intensity of the outbreak.First off, Park Jeong-min and Jisoo’s chemistry feels real. Their relationship doesn’t seem forced, and you can actually feel the emotions between them, especially in the flashback scenes. It makes you want to root for them, which is important in a show like this.
The zombie outbreak scenes were well-executed. The way they built up the tension was really good—it wasn’t just mindless jump scares but more about how fast things went from normal to absolute chaos. The cinematography really adds to the whole apocalyptic vibe, especially with the way they show Seoul turning into this terrifying mess.
That being said, I feel like the pacing was a bit slow in some parts, but I get that they’re trying to develop the story and characters before diving into full zombie madness. I’m hoping that the next episodes keep up the intensity and don’t drag too much.
Overall, Newtopia has started strong. It’s got emotional depth, great visuals, and an interesting storyline. I can’t say yet if it’s going to be amazing all the way through, but for now, I’m definitely excited to see where it goes!
