Going from the old synopsis and poster I thought this was thriller + time travel romance between Kim Hee Sun and…
Just from reading the current synopsis, it says his mother changes her name from Yoon Tae Yi to Park Sun Young. Then her son meets a Yoon Tae Yi, so I'm assuming it's the same person, but who knows...
I did somewhat enjoy it, especially the Agatha christie beginning, but I have no clue what the hell happened later. It takes weird to a whole new level.
I really enjoyed your article, and this will probably gonna go straight to my watching list. Not that I'm watching all that's there but it's convenient that it can be watched on youtube and viki :D
The first 7-8 episodes were more like a typical detective drama, with some side of weird. During the last three episodes is when it went all SPEC on us. Not complaining, I enjoyed it. Very 90s (Which I love). Chemistry and fun characters. They could've given moe screentime and dimensions to side characters though.
Ugh. Suicide isn't a sin. it's a mental illness. Well honestly if you actually believe in sins, you are so out…
Do you mean sins in general or suicide as a sin? If it's the latter I agree. Suicide is a complicated and sensitive, even traumatic topic. Someone thinking of suicide won't really care about it being called a "sin" so it's silly to call it as such. But if being called a sin would stop someone to think before killing themselves, then maybe it's worth calling it a sin? Who knows.
My enjoyment up to episode 11 could easily go up to 9-9.5 but I don't know... The last episode felt too... convenient? Still a great drama though :D
Hwang Jung Eum can be a hit or miss for me (as I know she is for many) but she was great here. I can't imagine anyone else doing a better job in her role. Always keeping a tough front while and nagging her way through people, yet you can see the suffering and pain in her eyes.
I first saw Choi Won Young in Hello Monster and oh was I so impressed. He continues on to impressed here. How can he be so goofy, hurt, and badass at the same time? Looking forward to seeing more of him.
I enjoyed the rest of the cast who, at worst, fit their role, and at best were amazing even when being guests in the drama. Except for one, but can't say if it was the acting of the way the character was written.
Kanda is the worse human being! The wrong person is dying!
He does have 1 redeeming factor.
There are many people similar to Kanda in our world who achieve success after some difficulties but then think nothing of causing harm to others since “they went through the same”
That's unnecessary. Reviewers have every right to lay out what they like or don't like, and like that reviewer,…
You didn’t say an opinion though, you personally attacked someone else’s review. I watched without more than reading the synopsis so the mature content caught me by surprise. And it’s not my thing so I skipped it. Also mature content can mean different things to different people. Anyways you can say how you appreciate mature content and that is a PoV to be respected. But you shouldn’t be judging others based on your standard, because they are entitled to theirs.
This is about portraying the scary world of entertainment, where it seems you have to sell your sole to succeed. And then again success doesn’t really garantee anything. It’s also about what could happen when people are driven to a corner. Also undertone portrayal of sexual harassment, especially in that industry.
Probably my favourite Okada Masaki performance. He should quit the nice guy role and do more complicated ones!
Should've been called Epidemic rather than Pandemic. Predicted a few things right about facing a pandemic. Especially when it comes to the WHO and such organizations. A predictable story yet still engaging enough.
One thing I had a hard time going passed, how am I supposed to believe the leads are of the same age when in one look I could tell they're a decade apart? Doesn't help Tsumabuki Satoshi looks so much younger than his age. He's adorable though and totally worth watching for him XD

I was taught our bodies are our responsibility, hence we have to take care of it.

Overall predictable though
