A mediocre drama
Doom at your service is one of the most hyped drama in recent times, and i am also one of them who created the hype. Honestly speaking this drama was appealing to me in first few episodes because of the star studded cast and the dramatic suspense created around the main leads, but started to disappoint me after 4th episode. This is nowhere near my expectations and the story is too predictable.
First of all, the acting is up to the mark!! I can't say it was mind blowing but they were able to indulge me into the story to some extent. I didn't feel anyone's acting exaggerating and good that most of the actors were chosen based on their potential. The only two characters i couldn't connect to were Deity and Kevin.. I felt it was unnecessary to add those extra converastions between kevin and main leads. It was meant to be an emotional thing but turned out to be a joke for me as i kept finding loopholes in those scenes.
The deity girl failed to impress me from the start. Since it is an imporatant role it would have been better if someone mature had played that role. This character was too childish and annoying to watch. There is room for improvement in her acting as i only noticed two expressions: plain (mostly) and the smiling one on her face. Also it felt like she was experimenting with the main leads story just to see how it turns and then in the end taking credits by saying that she knew everything.. she says whatever according to the situation which contrasts her previous words. To say bluntly she is the only character because of whom the story messed up like crazy, and I still couldn't understand the reason behind some of her dialogues and actions ughh!!
The visuals of the main leads and second leads are mesmerizing. I was swayed away by Myul mang's smirk and Cha joo ik's voice. I have to say that i've completed this drama without dropping for the second leads. They have a better storyline and chemistry than the main leads. I'm satisfied about how their story moved forward and the love/dating scenes were not rushed unlike the main leads. Unexpectedly Cha joo ik became the show stealer for me <3
These type of fantasy genre dramas always has something nonsensical and those logics may not be the best fit for the story. But to me there has to be atleast a strong plot to ignore such unsound reasons and this drama lacks such plot. Second half was totally screwed up and the drama barely survived because of the second leads. The ending was to me was a mix of two other fantasy dramas i've watched. I was expecting a happy ending from the first episode and it exactly ended how i thought it would after watching 2nd episode..how disappointing!!
Overall to conclude in a sentence it is an average and predictable drama which has everything but story!!
