My Review:
When I watched this K-Drama I wasn’t expecting that it will be that good, in fact even great. Although, I am familiar with some of the actors and even the main lead, I got totally surprised with the story and how the entire production executed the story and in such a pleasurable drama to watch.
So, What do I Like About this K-Drama?
(1) I must say that the actors here may not be hallyu star, but, my gosh has touched my heart in their individual scenes and highlights. I have watched Heo Joon Ho in several K-Dramas as supporting actor and even act as a villain, but, on this K-Drama I was totally impressed with how he projected his role as a father who’s looking for his missing daughter. I cried with him when he finally found her and it was such a heart wrenching scene due to his impressive rendition of his character.
(2) Go Soo as Kim Wook was also lovable. He was able to bring both the lighter and serious side of his character. He made me feel both happy and sad in a lot of scenes. And, even if there wasn’t a love angle on the story for him, he has done well in fulfilling Kim Wook’s character to be interesting and entertaining to watch.
(3) This is one of the K-Dramas that all the actors were such a pleasure to watch as you can see talent at its finest. There’s no wasted scenes or episodes, and, more so, there’s really no small or big roles. They were all able to give their characters justice that the audience will care enough to want to know what happened to all of them like Song Geon-Hee as Thomas Cha and Ahn Dong-Yeob as Park Beom-Soo.
(4) The writer and the director have done a splendid work. Did it well for 12 episodes which is a lot better for me. They were able to incorporate the supernatural occurrence seamless to the reality that it becomes believable. At the end, one would really like to wish that a place like that do exists.
(5) There are so many heartrending stories even at the midst of the horrendous reasons why they died. Because of that special place, they were able to find certain happiness and love that they didn’t find while they were alive or on how they died. The best part is that it’s nice to know that they can go in peace once it’s time. The premise is a wonderful thought especially for those who died due to crime.
What I do Not Like About this K-Drama?
Everything on this K-Drama was wonderfully done that I don’t have anything bad to say except I’m sad it has ended.
Would I recommend this K-Drama? Yes. Highly Recommended.
