Dark Hole gives me hope. Maybe I can become a writer too.

Huge zombie fan here. I was happy to see Lee Joon Hyuk finally landing a big role but try as I may, this show just fails to deliver. I just can't seem to care enough about anyone at all. The dialogue, logic, and conflicts are packed with cliches and flaws. The narrative feels like a novice high school student's first attempt at writing a novel, where they simply incorporate whatever concepts they find intriguing, without knowing the fundamentals of writing and storytelling. Is this about zombies, aliens, a serial killer or supernatural forces? Make up your mind please. I love my bubble tea as much as I love my ramen soup, but I do not ever want to see them getting mixed into one big bowl.

I doubt myself so much after watching this. Why is it so highly rated? Am I the only one who thinks it's almost unwatchable? Are my expectations too high? Am I the only one who noticed all the plot holes, overacting, lazy storytelling and supposedly intelligent people making idiotic and laughable choices?

Is it my problem? I think it is. But I can't help it.

I've just finished binging Stranger (Secret Forest) and Tunnel and absolutely love both series. Stranger has an incredibly well-researched multilayered plot and Tunnel for me was a suspenseful and emotional roller coaster ride. Why didn't I feel the same watching this? My emotion was just dead flat and I really couldn't care about any of the characters.

The story was so riddled with plot holes that I felt like giving up so many times halfway through. I'm not even going to start with how unrealistic some scenes were. A lady cop going around kicking the asses of a bunch of guys who are physically so much larger than her? A prosecutor who manipulates people around him by acting like a brat? Kids who can hack into anything they want and have access to any CCTV they wish? A wanted fugitive who loves to remove her helmet for no reasons under CCTVs and continues to walk around without disguise in public after barely escaping getting caught?

Unfortunately, it wasn't even close to being funny, exciting, suspenseful or emotional in any way for me. The music's terrible too, personally it really spoiled the mood way too much for me; felt like it's targeted at teenagers.

If you are a hardcore crime/mystery/thriller fan, this is definitely not for you. It is however mildly entertaining if you're just looking for some brainless entertainment which happens to have a crime/mystery thriller theme.
