8/10 Perfect kdrama, as good as the very best American series and movies! It's a romance /thriller. So far l've watched the first 4 episodes. I usually don't like thrillers but this one is so well done and the romance in it is different from what I'm used to see, it feels not only refreshing but incredibly intriguing, I can't wait to watch the rest of the series as soon as it will be out! It just feels like the perfect series, everything is so well done and the actors are incredibly talented and play their roles to perfection. I would say it's at the same level of the very best American series and movies. Being only 4 episodes out for the moment and releasing weekly, I want to refrain from mentioning anything about the plot, will update the review once the series concludes. In the meantime... Just go watch it, you can thank me later
In episode 8, when the FL kills that man on the property, I swear I’ve seen that exact location in other Kdramas too, maybe even several of them. Has anyone else noticed that?
I just finished this and I thought it was good. It wasn’t perfect, but still an enjoyable watch. I would love to see the leads in a nice romantic comedy.
I couldn't agree more with everything you said. It was, indeed, a showcase for the actors. Imo, this project presented…
Yeah, he’s been praising her up and down these interviews. I was like oh he def knew she ate this up and matched energy. I find it hilarious how he addresses her vs how he is with his other female sunbaes. He also mentioned that they just met and talked, very recently. I hope they run it back with a proper melo like he mentioned.

I was in shock. First k-drama I watched with that kind of ending. Damo did it to me again. EK had her sacrificing love for power, so, in a way, not the same but a somewhat similar dynamic in Climax.
Speaking of a face that moves, the way her expression slowly and subtly changes when she "sees" Jeong-won in the audience. Most actresses would do too much too fast.
Oh, and I meant to mention before, in an interview, Ju Ji-hoon called her sunbae and a great actress. Which made me wonder how much her acting opposite him in those big emotion scenes influenced his performance.

Someone else watched Bali! That ending! She seems to like projects that are different from the rest. Like Damo. There's a brain at work in that actresses' head. For me, her performance in Climax was the best.
There was a lot of chirping after the early eps dropped about why these A-list actors chose this project. Turns…

There was a lot of chirping after the early eps dropped about why these A-list actors chose this project. Turns out, this was an acting showcase. I mean Cha Joo-young was doing her damn best to steal this drama away from the leads. She put on a phenomenal performance. Ju Ji-hoon, my god. I think this maybe my fave performance of his (kdrama wise). It was very bold and risky for Ha Ji-won to say yes to this. This being her comeback drama after 4 yrs in which she not only has undeniable chemistry with Ju Ji-hoon but also electrifying our screens with her scences w/Nana. She tore this shit tf up. May she be gainfully employed from here on out. This is my first time seeing Nana in anything. She ate and left no crumbs. I hope since this is a joint production w/Studio Genie and it aired simultaneously OTT on Disney+ KR and GenieTV that the actors are eligible for a Blue Dragon Series Award. It would be shame if these performances go unrewarded.
It's a romance /thriller.
