Quirky short 6 episode drama
Likes: Original story with quirky characters. The weirdness was refreshing. The acting was on point from the entire cast.Dislikes: It may be a little "too" out there. I honestly don't really know what to make of this.
Strange, weird, quirky - definitely words that will come to mind when you watch this. I can't tell you how many times I'm like "What the...."? And yet I couldn't stop watching. The tone, acting, and editing were all done very well and in a way that captures your interest. I never had to skip anything. It was a nice break from the formulaic romcoms I usually watch.
Jung Yumi is fantastically weird as the high school nurse who can see monsters in the form of jellies and uses her trusty toy sword to go about protecting the students from harm. She really nailed this role. I've seen her previous works and I personally think she is one of the top actresses of Korea. I always believe whatever role she takes on.
Nam Joo Hyuk plays her counterpart, the crippled teacher with a special force field protecting him from the jellies. He also did a really great job acting because I only saw his character and not the celebrity NJH. He keeps getting better with more experience.
The students also did a great job acting. Why only 7 stars then? While the execution was done well, I couldn't help feeling like there was something missing....like maybe a point? I felt like there were too many questions left unanswered which I think is why so many people are like "what did i just watch?"

PLEASE JUST WATCH IT
This drama is so eccentric but that is what makes it good. Everything that happens makes perfect sense in this universe. Story is strong but I feel lik they should've given us more info about the jellies. I hope they do that in S2. All the cast members are so strong - no weak link.Nam Joo Hyuk is so good here! This is my favourite drama of his. He portrays a serious role so well. Hopefully he continues to take on more challenging rolesp.
Jung Yu-mi as the school nurse has nailed down her weird character!

you should watch this show.
i freaking loved it so much. i love it. but you have to be in a mood to watch it. i feel like the whole show is a huge personification of being born in world, so pure and oblivious, that has so much history. in this story we have characters that feel that history and emotion in a tactile manner. how do each of them go about dealing with the mess only they can see? there's so much to unpack with each character. i wish they make a second season. but really nothing could've prepared me for the ride this show took me on. insane show, i loved every second of it.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Excellent and weird in the best way
What a surprise. I watched it on Netflix and couldn't get enough. I have a thing for fantasy, monsters, and supernatural dramas but this one exceeded my expectations. Nam Joo Hyuk played such a different character from what I used to see from him but the role fits him perfectly. Jeong Yu-mi also fitted the concept perfectly. I really hope there will be a second season.The story was kinda wild and left you a little hung up at the end but the vibe of the show was really great. I recommend it if you want to watch something different

what happened ???
obviously this needed more than 6 episodes. the story was so amazing that even with the many question left unanswered and dropped plots I considered this 10/10 when we found out who her female friend really is. Like, I'm sorry but that was too good. its so upsetting it only got 6 eps it needed 10 or 12 to get everything right. everything felt rushed and not given time to settle properly.With the rushed and mysterious ending it feels like they were fishing for a season 2. Maybe they didn't have enough money for more than 6 eps so they tried to make the ending mysterious in hopes it would be a hit and the fans would beg for more. unfortunately for us taste havers, the kdrama audience lacks taste so were never getting that second season. I mean the Nam Joo Hyuk stans are in the reviews complaining that this is "weird" ... like duh you dummy.
anyway this was great and now I'm buying the novel to get all the answer I need.

Disappointing .... But still good.
-Only my opinion!-Spoiler quite possible!
I’m damn unsure if i should like this show or not...
It had so much potential! The thing is why i didn’t like that show is the feeling the show brings with it self.
I didn’t liked the style of this show. It was toooo strange, and i still don’t get it what the show wanted us to tell.
I’m disappointed because i thought it would be like all these others kdramas... because i like them in their way. But this had such an creepy different style. I’m not a big fan of something like this if I’m in the mood i watch this kind of genre but i didn’t saw this coming, that’s why I’m disappointed.
BUT! I don’t wanna say that it wasn’t good! It was totally good! Outstanding and something different! The quality of the whole show is on top! i recommend it to all who likes extraordinary, bizarre stories!
I’m just not a fan of the style/mood/feeling of this show. :)
Still! Everyone did a great job and created such a creative show!

what was that
kind of a waste of time, like they showed so many random stuff that didn't have to be there. I didn't like it but the acting was good. I could see that the main actor really matured. I'm pretty sure Netflix is gonna give us a second season soon, until then I don't recommend people to watch the first season, it feels incomplete. I don't know if i'll watch the 2nd season tho. The drama had so much potential,they needed a stronger story.But I'm pretty sure artistic or goth people would like it.It's not a long drama watch it on your own risk.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Well, it’s one kooky drama, that’s for sure. I loved the CGI - most of the jellies were really precious - the cinematography and the music, too. I liked the idea of it and the actors. And when it was good then it was truly marvelous, mainly when the story focused on the leads. But...But. When the storytelling shifted to the students, it became very very boring and I literally almost fell asleep watching it. There were so many loose ends and so many dropped plots and the whole drama ended with a pitiful whimper instead of a bang.
Also, when Eun Young broke her promise to In Pyo... She has always been an oddball but in that moment, I actually hoped the school would fall on her head and squash her. After her big speech, when she warned the baddies off In Pyo, in the end it was she who hurt him the most. Yeah. No.
I wonder if there will be S2, especially considering the whole “Hong In Pyo... Hong In Pyo...” at the end. If there is S2, then I will watch it - but for Hong In Pyo, Eun Young can choke on her jellies!
