I personally liked Tunnel more than Signal. Signal might have done the thriller aspect better than Tunnel but as a complete package I would say Tunnel was better. Both have different strengths and weakness in different areas. Nonetheless, I would give both dramas 8.5/10
I. HATE. OPEN. ENDING. It feels the last few scenes were leading to a massive build up but they decided to take the open ending route. I personally liked Tunnel more than Signal. Signal might have done the thriller aspect better than Tunnel but as a complete package I would say Tunnel was better. Nonetheless, I would give both dramas 8.5/10
I watched the Japanese version before the original Korean one for some reason. Anyway, both had their own flavors. Some stuff the Jap version does better and other stuff the Korean version does better. If I were to summarize both versions it is as follow: Jap version is compact and complete story that did a good job delivering the core message. The Korean version is a more spread out story with 50% more content that carries the same core message with not much of a difference. But most of the extra content are from around episode 11 and onward, we get to see the FL chases after ML after the ML decided not to interact with both wives for several episodes. The Jap version barely showed that briefly. We also get to see a lot of "post credit" scenes in the Korean version, the entirety of ep16 is a post credit scene. Korean version also has your typical flavor of Korean comedy. The drama itself story wise was fine but I can't help feeling that the reconciliation at the end feels artificial and forced. This goes for both versions. Both versions had a great cast. I love when the Korean FL voice cracks every time she screams.

The drama itself story wise was fine but I can't help but feel that the reconciliation at the end feels artificial and forced "LOOK AT US WE ARE HAPPY NOW". This goes for both versions.
Both versions had a great cast. I absolutely love when the Korean FL voice cracks when she screams lol
This shouldn't be tagged with "Horror, Supernatural" it's just a thriller mystery even though the girl sees few visions here and there. The drama felt too tame and slow, the thriller aspect of it doesn't show it till the last 4 episodes or so. It fails to keep the viewer interested with the extremely slow uneventful investigation for most of the episodes. I would say it's worth it if you the time and patience to stick with it. Also, it seems like they did nothing about the rapist? Like seriously wtf!!!!???
This drama can't stick to one theme at all, it doesn't know what it wants to be. Sometimes it's a casual drama then typical melodrama then it tries to comedic and romantic then switches to thriller and mystery with the suspense. It feels too scattered that it ruins the mood and the pace.
Aside from that, when the killer was revealed it felt disappointing for such a character that wasn't shown more than few scenes in the series. They completely ruined the climax for a 20 episodes build up. Such a waste!
One more thing, since the topic of infidelity was one of the main subjects where all men were cheating I wish if they would take advantage of the topic to explore more variety of why these men would cheat. As it is portrayed here, it seems they all are cheating for the sake of it. It could have been a stronger and better plot.
In the beginning, it felt it was going in the right direction but it never did. I would say watch it if you have nothing else to watch but otherwise it's mediocre at best.
You would expect such a drama to have a good amount of intimacy but it's far way too scarce. It has two kissing scenes in total and they were just touching lips.
It tries to portray itself as a "mature romance" relationships but behaves like highschool drama hookups. You can expect loads of cringe and cheese for a drama that meant to focus on these men's relationships in their 40's.
Regardless, it has a decent cast with nice moments here and there but it remains mediocre.
If you want an actual matured theme drama then go watch "One spring night"
This is genuinely amazing! This instantly became my top 3 dramas. The same writer for "Something in the rain" with the same ML which is the perfect cast for such a drama. I absolutely love the soundtrack that I bought. It is extremely rare to find a drama at this caliber, the only dramas to match this are (Something in the rain, My mister, Because This Is My First Life). Overall this gets a perfect score from me 10/10 !
It's pretty good! Both leads are my favorite actors and I was happy to see them in one drama as leads. This drama is miles better than Can You Hear My Heart. Although this drama from 2018, I feel like Namkoong's hairstyle and style is older than that and it doesn't suit him at all. Something from Good Manager or Beautiful Gong Shim suits him much much better.
It went downhill in the last third. Also, I personally didn't like the ML, I wish ML and 2ML switched places. This drama has 2 of my favorite actors but the drama itself is weak, uninteresting and overrated!
Don't be deceived by the low rating and give a shot! This is not your typical drama, I feel like it's a bit misunderstood. This drama doesn't take itself seriously, it has a bit of satire. If you are looking for something different, this is for you. It's crazy fast paced roller coaster that will keep you hooked till the last episode.
Not good! borderline bad! FL is hella cute but everything else is falling apart. It's 16 episodes long but we don't get any romance between leads until the last few minutes of the last episode and it's not even worth it. On the other hand, 2FL gets 100x more romance scenes. Boring, no romance no comedy, very few cute scenes and unlikable ML. It's just not worth it.
It's great, well written and high quality production but I can't help but feel at some points it's way too lengthy with nothing interesting happening. 1.5hours per episode is way too much and it shows after few episodes. Some scenes I was bored out of my mind. Also I wish there was more interactions between ML and his sister since SHE is the main reason he is in jail!!!!! If it were packed better I would give it a higher score but for me it's a 8.5/10

I wish someone would smile at me like Park Bo Gum does, so precious!
Nonetheless, I would give both dramas 8.5/10
