The big reveal is the big turning point from which everything goes downhill

This is certainly a slow-paced, understated drama from the beginning - and sometimes it slows down even more. So it's not for people who enjoy faced paced action centered stories. But even I didn't expect anything like that, I found it incredibly sloooow.
SaveI stayed and kept watching because the impeccable acting from ZX and really cool side characters.

But then, the big reveal came .... DON'T read if you don't want any spoilers .....

and I don't even know if I want to watch the ending. I'm at episode 36 and about to give up on this drama, because the big bad was just revealed and in a matter of half an episode turned super pathetic and boring. I am seriously pissed at the moment. The motif behind ZBWs actions is just paper thin. Like... you get bullied as a child and suddenly want to turn whole nations into zombies? Wtf.

I might pick it up again when I have calmed down, but I certainly will reduce my rating based on this part of the plot alone.
Since my partner wanted to finish it, we did. I was bored out of my mind and didn't like the last 4 episodes at all, because they felt rushed but actually not much happened - especially the tear-jerker sequence where ZH meets his family was wasted on me, because the ML is must so bland, I don't feel for him at all.
