Ikr. I loved the intensity of the movie, but there was too little information given to fully understand it. Also, like you said, the movie was just to keep themselves safe from the zombies by reaching Busan which also doesn't really tell if it is safe there as well. I guess they only focused on the actions rather than the whole picture cos it's only a 2 hr. movie.

I didn't watch it from there, so I'm not 100% sure, but when I checked, it seems not too off than the kissasian, but some of it is not translated.

@HappySqueak I like the way you said it. I did love the movie, but it would have been more better if they added more details as to why this virus got out and what happens to Korea like if this problem would ever be resolved.

The movie was great and I was getting thrilled and making hand gestures of the people (who wasn't infected) to get inside the train safely, but after knowing that Seok Woo (Goong Yoo) was sort of the reason the situation got into this, somehow I lost my affection for this movie. I mean Seok Woo may have been an cold-hearted jerk at first, but he was changing as the story moved forward. Then, he is talking on the phone with his colleague who is crying and saying it was their project they are working on that caused this ruckus. Also, this phone call was almost right after my FAVORITE character Sang Hwa (the husband of the pregnant lady) died!!!! I totally lost my affection for the main character and couldn't really feel for him when he was protecting his daughter and the pregnant lady. Just kept thinking about how his daughter and the pregnant lady might find out Seok Woo is partly responsible for this cause.

If you are looking for the right sub, I advice you not to watch it from kissasian cos they are wrongly translated.

@Fay You are right. The subs are mostly wrongly translated. I advice people not to read the subs while they are watching it at kissasian.

I like how they showed Pyo Na Ri being with Hwa Shin and Jeong Won at the end of episode 8. I honestly don't mind who she ends up with cos I love both of them and she matches with both. Also, episode 7 made me laugh so hard LOL.

For what I know, there is an MDL rule saying you are not supposed to write a review until the drama is finished. I have also made a similar mistake before, so it's best to remove this review asap and post this on the comment section. You can write this review once the drama is finished.

I wasn't really expecting much since it was so chaotic in the last few episodes, but the ending is nice and simple. I like the ending of the webtoon where the father kills Han Chul Ho and sees his daughter at the end. Also, I like the fact the narrator of the scenes explaining the real ending of the webtoon is Soo Bong since he is a third person who viewed this whole situation well. The ending of the real world was good as well - simplicity.

The plot in this story is developing. There are some conflicts that is going on in this drama. I see the political struggles in which the crown prince have been fighting against the Queen and her people. He is still not powerful enough to control them, but he isn't also weak since he is smart and uses his wits to prove he is not a weakling like his father. Tbh, I'm not really into political struggles...

but also the romance between the two mains are developing as well. The two main has each side in which they cannot express there feelings to one another. The crown prince didn't know that Hong Sam Nom is actually a girl, so when he started having feelings towards Sam Nom, he denied it since this love cannot happen. On the other hand, Sam Nom tries to hide his feelings since she is disguised as a guy and would also be in deep trouble if anyone is to find out she is a girl. Despite their conflicts, their love brings them to where they are now (episode 8 where he tells her that he loves a woman standing right in front of him, which is obviously Ra On).
However, we can see that she is the daughter of the one who started the riot and everyone is looking for her, including the crown prince. I like the progress they are making here, which also reminds me of my favorite drama Hong Gil Dong (just a bit in where there is a secret birth identity surrounding the main girl).

My main point here is that there is definitely a plot in this story unless you fast forward most of the scenes to make you think there was no plot.

Honestly, I can't wait for the day Wang So ascends the throne cos I really hate HATE the 3rd prince, but I do feel bad for the other princes (well, except for the 9th prince since he is like no existence to me in this drama). Also, by that time, Soo will already be in love with Wang So and not Wook anymore (if they follow the same love path as the Chinese one). I seriously cannot ship between Wook and Soo together...like I can't stop thinking about her dead sister while they are together and something just feels off.I want more scenes of Soo and So or other princes is fine as long as it's not 3rd, 8th, and 9th.

@palak Yes, I would have been able to sympathize with the male lead in W if the story was reasonable. I think Lee Jong Suk is doing good at his acting since at the beginning all the way to the episode he losses all his memories, I could feel his anger, nothingness, and how ridiculed he was to the fact everything of his life was just a manga, and the romance he had with Oh Yeon Joo seemed so sweet, but after he lost his memory, everything seemed so unbalanced. The villain somehow ends up becoming the main character by eating the face of the father and controlling the world inside 'W'. Kang Chul on the run after accused of killing his associate in the hospital and later on finding out Yeon Joo's identity from the a manga book which he doesn't even feel shock anymore about the fact that he is in a manga...etc, etc. There are so many other ridiculous happenings that I only feel as if the character seems like he is just tired to be wanting to do anything.
@emylan Nine: Nine Time Travels wasn't really complicated (a messy storyline like W is getting now) for me, so I was able to sympathize with the male lead easily. As the male lead faces some obstacles, he manages to solve the problem himself without involving too many people like W. I think the bad storyline has made Lee Jong Suk lose his character along the way.

Yes ikr! I was so disappointed it was too short :,((((( When she had that facial expression and stopped him, I honestly thought she knew his affection and cut him off to draw boundaries. I'm so glad that wasn't the case since then I would be so sadddd for Seo Woo.

Kang Seo Woo the only one I actually feel sorry for in this story. I really loved it when he sang the song Confession <3

I liked the romance between the main leads before he lost his memories (like before he asked her to make it a dream). After he woke up from the dream he requested, their love for each other seems forced like Kang is just making an effort to think and act like he is in love with her since he find out he was her husband after reading the comic book. As time goes by, the many nonsense obstacles are making their love seems tiring and too hard to watch. Tbh, the story itself is becoming messier as well. The more I watch I find myself sighing and laughing cos of the ridiculous progress. I really liked this drama, so I just hope the ending will make everything seems okay.

@Camellia Yes, I also find it disturbing that it's her sister's husband even while I was watching the original (Chinese version). I know this is the old period and men gets married to many women especially when their status is higher, but I hope Wang So isn't married at all and ends up with only Hae Soo.

Yes, and it's actually better for her not to know too much since it will just make her worry more.

Hae Soo's character is really different from Zhang Xiao (from the original Scarlet Heart). Zhang Xiao was cheerful and unique in that Chinese period, but she was mostly careful and knowledgeable of the what the history would turn out to be. However, she would always be cautious in her words and actions from beginning to end (although she did spill out her secret to the 13th prince when they first met and to the 4th prince almost at the end). Also, she was really lady-like and quickly adapted to the historical environment due to her knowledgeable and quick-witted mind that I wondered if this was a fantasy story where she really came from the future.

On the other hand, Hae Soo is way to cheerful and wayyyy to unique to the eyes of the people portrayed in that time period. I was surprised because her character seemed wayyyy different from the one in the Chinese original and I honestly loved ittttt! Although I was kind of disappointed that she doesn't know much of the history, but now I think it may be a good thing since she won't need to feel guilty or pity to the other prince about how she knows what's going to happen to them but can't really help them. She is a lovable character that I can't possibly hate for now (since I don't know how she will turn out...it's only episode 3 now). Lovable as in she's clumsy and makes many mistakes, but she tries her best to be careful which doesn't seem to work so well (which is cute since it tells that she is really not from this time period).

I love IU and was a bit excited that it was her as main, but tbh, I was a bit worried about how her acting is going to turn out to be. After watching the original one, Liu Cecilia is one of the best Chinese actor I've ever seen and thought how IU might pull a serious acting like this. However, the character of Hae Soo shines brightly as a jewel (I just hope she will keep it shining) maybe cos IU's the one acting it. Her acting has improved a lot and I'm so happy to see her back in one of my fav drama <3

Overall, the story is great so far sort of different from the Chinese drama in so many aspects. I loved the original one, but the Moon Lovers is also great as well ><

Damnnnn another fantasyyyy <3 <3 <3!!!!!!!!!

I would like to try and write an article
