35 years ago do you remember when it happened it happened 35 years ago DO YOU REMEMB

This is the greatest example of "Great idea BAD execution". Everything important they told could be said in like 10 episodes. Which is funny, cause it's the same amount of episodes where the plot took an absolutely ridiculous twist. It seems like they scratched the initial idea of the main killer, panicked, and created some bs out of thin air. The last three episodes were absolute nothingburger, which is saying something, cause the same goes for about the half of screentime of each episode. So, yes, their grand idea went to hell, and you can tell.

And i didn't even said anything about the characters yet. Eugene started out strong, ended up as an empty shell acting as a therapist for other characters. Jae Hwan started as a funny dumbass ended as a useless annoying dumbass with no development at all. Jung Yeop and Hyo Gyeong were AMAZING the best characters ever in this dull show until someone in the writing room decided wait they're too cool, let's make them worse for no reason at all. I guess Jae Hwans stupidity is contagious.

I'm giving it this rating because it COULD be good. An amazing idea was there. But it just didn't happen.

ALSO i forgot to mention that this show thinks that you're, the viewer, is dumb as rocks, so it chews everything for you 100 times like a mama bird.
