Never ever did I think I'd hear "that's how death is" instead of "that's how life is"...deep deep deep this drama is deep & I love it! Such an intruiging & life changing storyline🤚🏼❤️
I was more than half way through ep 1 & I almost dropped it...infact I did, since the drama came out till now I'm still at ep 1. I'm picking it up again cuz I realized I don't know what the FL is like, haven't even seen her face clearly. So I'm giving it a second chance.
FL apparently lost a lot of weight for her role in this drama, idk I don't mean to feel how I feel cuz in a way it's like stigmatization BUT looking at her makes my leg ache & i feel so sick & lethargic (I tried to put it nicely while expressing myself, I'm sorry) Anyways she really didn't have to go that far for the role but I appreciate her effort, she's done so well- I was never a fan of hers & have never finished any drama she starred in. But I've got to give her flowers for this one.
Everything is so perfect so far but that darned ML- i really thought I'd like him a bit more but he's so stiff in acting it just hits a nerve that irks me. And it doesn't help that he's saved her 182737 times in one ep (idk it's cringe). Anyways so far I love where the drama is heading & I certainly love myself a befitting Revenge. (I wish it didn't need a ML tho😦)
Very stiff acting from ML and I'm honestly getting so much second hand embarassment from FL, that can't be just…
that's Chinese drama for you😭😂 its like their whole brain cell produces cringe honestly. But for someone who never watches cdrama, this was my second fav after Hidden Love
I did not realise Kim Mi Kyung was in this. Is she Korea's national mother?
I thought Kim Haesook was, atl that's what I've heard them call her. But Kim Mi Kyung has been praised for her "good" mother roles in literally every drama.
A few episodes in..So far imo (without spoilers):- FL is the best part of this.- The cgi is awful but mostly hidden…
"cgi is awful" gurllll are you kidding me???!!! you'd prolly prefer the monster coming out of your screen atp
Buh I also thought about the Korean casting in stead of Japanese, I always do cuz most kdramas do not use Japanese actors e.g. Song of Bandits. Buy they nailed the language (to my understanding) so i don't see why that should be a problem.
And yes the romance is cringe & unnecessary. When they insert the comedy sometimes its disturbing.
it has quite a slow pazed plot. it gets around ep 2/3 . for me i didn't find it boring because i was intrigued…
I surprisingly did not feel the slow pace, I thought th pace was perfect cuz I was well informed. it didn't confuse me I was sooo intrigued by the cinematography and the actions of the characters, I learnt alot too
The Monster/Apocalypse genre is way better when set in 1900s but hey (to any disguised kdrama wri/pro/dir) DO NOT take me literally, it's better historical yeah but 173836× better when it's not hard to come by, makes those type of dramas retain their value & get more recognition- Meaning, my idea rocks but pls don't overuse it🗿
"Humans in particular desire to become apex predators"...tf u mean😭 all I want in life is to live in a cute aesthetic cartoon with rainbow for sun & gumdrops for rain🤏🏼😭?!
This drama was perfect a 10, but that unnecessary romance🤦🏽♀️ anyways I was able to see beyond that cuz clearly it's way more than that....the story is so unique, refreshing heartbreaking with a few comic reliefs here & there. I just wish they made that "romance" lowkey like they fell for each other almost everything, which is cute but since day 1 they've been giving us highkey hints like it's a romance drama. No that's not how it should be! Netflix likes doing this they should learn from Uncanny Counter s1. subtle Chemistry is the best for an action thriller drama, especially one with heavy topics like this.
Every time they did that cliché over dramatic thing like in romance dramas, I cringed so hard. And when ML visions pointed to FL being his flipside I was like "huh"...dude you're life changed the moment you were asked to find Akiko.
