A Puzzle Missing Pieces
"Goodbye Earth" is a drama that leaves mixed feelings behind. On one hand, it excellently conveys the atmosphere of an impending catastrophe where people destroy themselves. On the other hand, this drama feels like a puzzle missing several important pieces. The events and characters are intriguing, but their stories seem cut off and unfinished.
For example, the priest turned out to be an incredible character—so kind, strong, and genuine. But we never got to learn his full story, his thoughts, or his inner struggles. He was a character I wanted to understand more deeply.
The same goes for the main heroine. She acted decisively, and her actions can be explained, but what truly drove her until the very end remained vague. Her emotions and thoughts felt hidden, making it difficult to fully grasp her character.
As for the ending, I expected more—something dramatic that would leave a lasting impression. Yes, they tried to create an emotional moment—the scene with flowers and plush toys looked beautiful. But the ending was more symbolic than dramatic, and it also felt rather rushed. It seemed like the story hadn’t yet reached its true climax, as if there should have been something more, yet instead, it just suddenly stopped. It wasn’t the kind of ending that evokes strong emotions or leaves a sense of closure.
Despite these flaws, the drama cannot be called bad. It has an excellent atmosphere, raises important themes, and makes you think about how people would behave before the end of the world. However, due to cut scenes and unfinished storylines, it feels incomplete.
