I downloaded this drama a long time ago, but I didn’t watch it back then. I really don’t know why I did that, because it is so cool. While watching it, the thought “Oh, what’s going to happen next?” was always in my mind. Once I started watching, I just couldn’t stop. The drama constantly gives us things to think about—why did this happen? why did the mutants do that? is she the one?—and so on. There is a lot of curiosity throughout.

While watching this, I was reminded of Sweet Home. The plot feels a bit similar to it for me. Overall, the drama is superb and well written. The writer smoothly lines up the story, and everything flows nicely.

However, I feel like the last two episodes dropped a little. I can’t clearly point out where the drop happens, but something feels off. Even though the story is still well written, the last two episodes feel a bit out of place. One issue is that the monster looks very fake. I think the writer slightly messed up the ending. It felt like watching an adult movie that suddenly turns into a kids’ movie. Still, it’s okay—it didn’t cause too much harm.

One more thing: as I said, this drama is similar to Sweet Home, but it is not as dramatic. For example, both dramas have scenes where good lead characters die. In Sweet Home, those scenes made me cry, but in this drama, I didn’t even feel heartache when a good character died. This is not the fault of the cast or the plot—it’s mainly the background elements. Sweet Home has superb background music and presents those scenes very dramatically. It makes you feel like it’s happening to you. This drama doesn’t have that effect. Even though I like it, I never felt like I was one of them, the way I did while watching Sweet Home.

The whole cast did their best, with no mistakes at all. Overall, this is a must-watch drama.
