Romcom with bloody zombies.

The comedic timing is done well, this is not melodrama depressing thriller nor a cute romcom with hot naked ML. As someone who barely has time for tv, this is something you can watch for quick entertainment. Even if you randomly pick any scenes, it'll be fine.

It feels a bit movie-like than tv series because of the quick and clear pace. Can say it's simple and straight forward as we know they'll fight zombies and meet at the end, and their strong point are the actors. BUT, zombies action scenes can change the overall point. Their chemistry are great so it'll be fun to watch them fight.

It's not cliche, I've watched it 3 times and each time I still got uncomfortable with the zombies

You won't go 'woah' but you will laugh, cry a bit, and lose appetite with the gore. Their zombies have variety, some are like in horror movie, I think it's more gore than Kingdom.

You will root with the FL right away, not because she's Jisoo the popular star, but the plot made her likeable, and also sympathize about the uncertainty. They threw in few clues that the FL is not meek, also she was certain she can go on her own to Tower A. So far she's been level headed amidst the chaos.

The ML, his over the top humor makes him quirky but him being pushover to his gf will leave viewer not be on his side, at first. The next part with zombies did show him leading them in fight. He knows what'll work but he's not really brave for a soldier.

I'll review again when the whole thing released.
