Of course even as an introduction to another story, this drama isn’t above criticism of how the plot was or wasn’t handled.

Apparently (people are saying) that this drama is supposed to be a prequel to another story/drama/movie based off of the same S Line webtoon.

If that’s the case, I guess that this short series was supposed to serve as sort of the genesis of the world depicted (as in the world in which S Lines exist and all people see them), and rise questions that might be answered (or even might become important plot points) in an eventual sequel.
Hence the confusing (and seemingly sometimes pointless) nature of this short drama, which functions in the world-building aspect but also withholds information/answers from the viewers and doesn’t reach desired conclusions.

The only thing now is… are they ever going to make a sequel or another drama set in the same universe???

* breakdown after finding out his father has raped his niece Seona (she is his father’s granddaughter) and that they were connected by an s line.

I’ve got to be honest, the breakdown in the hospital*? Lee So Hyuk totally nailed that scene, he was great.

That’s a very interesting take on that scene, I didn’t think about it before (I know it’s not like that in the series but still), certainly would have changed a lot of things, maybe even it’d be more dramatic?

Thanks

Makes sense!

same, that “date” they had at the pool in earlier episode was so wholesome too… uh, because of his death this drama didn’t have a “happy ending” (as some people say it had) for me.

“And MY SHAYLAAA, did that kid really have to die??”

my exact reaction too, he really didn’t do anything to deserve that

Oh really? A prequel would make it make more sense then! So is there going to be a s2 or other drama continuation (like, in the same universe)? Do you know something or did LSH say something more? Sorry with all the questions.

The ending sucks a bit. I mean, it’s not some amazing drama as a whole, but it has potential (the premise and the characters are initially engaging), I feel like it should have been a bit longer.

Anyway, we actually didn’t get to know anything about Detective Han’s lines, which I don’t have anything against this character but I was low-key curious if there was any backstory there.

Well, this drama seems very artistic (nice shots and camerawork, images etc + acting is good) but the plot is a mess, it’s like the characters and stories seem to connect, but it feels like someone put a bunch of situations together and called that a consistent plot.

It is however quite entertaining and an interesting thing to watch. It wasn’t boring, I’m not going to re-watch it though. It’s not completely bad (someone reading this comment might come under the impression that I don’t have any positive thoughts about it). I didn’t dislike it, but I’ve also come to watch this without any expectations so I couldn’t really get disappointed with anything anyway.

I watched it with sort of a distance to it, I didn’t get much emotionally invested (besides my curiosity to know what’s going to happen next) so it was quite easy for me.
But I totally get how someone could get overwhelmed, drained or really disappointed with this drama.

Yeah, but is it supposed to mean something, or just like “here you have an intense scene is a funky dimension”? Maybe I don’t get it, since I’m not that emotionally invested into this drama…

he was too innocent for this drama so they got rid of him… :[

This is really confusing (ep6) like a different drama… what was that space that they were in? Is it supposed to be a metaphor..?

WTF I was mistaken but at what cost… nooo… why did it happened to him?? Like, that’s just unfair.

Wait no, I think I was mistaken.

Nah… is the class president guy trash too..? Eh… Here goes my last hope for at least some wholesomeness in this drama.

I don’t know really how to rate this drama, but Lee Soo Hyuk alone, was really good here (acting-wise etc, I mean he is a good actor, Arin was good too). At least the thing that got me interested in this drama didn’t disappoint me, ( you call me shallow if you want...) which was Lee Soo Hyuk’s visuals on the poster.
He indeed looked good from the start to the end, so at least that I enjoyed! lol

honestly I thought the exact opposite while watching, that it’s a good thing this kdrama wasn't released like 5 years ago because then It’d inevitably have 16 episodes that would have been too much. But maybe you’re right, that 12 is too little? What about 14 episodes?
