Now THAT’S what I call great screenwriting!
Wow ... just wow! Since I don’t know where to start with explaining how remarkably good this drama was and believe a genuine, thorough review will only end as a dissertation, I will keep it as short and sweet as possible and ask fellow curious viewers to abandon what you think/hope will happen and just watch the show!
A race against time where a life is always on the line. Hidden danger illuminated by a little foresight. Will everything come to light? Will everyone live? Will justice be served? Love how the answers is not a simple yes! I am warning you now - it will be frustrating. It will have you shouting “WHO? WHAT? WHEN? WHERE? HOW? WHHHHHHHYYYYY?” If you come with preconceived notions, YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED because it probably won’t happen the way you think it will. The only way to find the truth is to watch it all!
Now a “light” review:
Nam Gyu Ri is AN??ACT??OR?? WOW! Just every moment, she bodied that character with her lil band of sociopathic serial killers.
I really wish I could get into the cinematography aspect of this drama as well but that would require many, many words. In short, give them all the awards... ALL OF EM! I’m still thinking about the lighting in the cafe scene, DAEBAK!
What I loved most about the series is that it lacked long-term predictability. What I mean by that is, because of the main characters’ ability to communicate through time and space, an action that we would deem significant in an early episode may turn out to be of no importance later on and vice versa. Only in the “present” moment can you accurately predict what’s going to happen, which I love since I usually spend my time pointing at the screen saying “they’re the real criminal,” and at the end of the series, lo and behold, they are in fact the culprit.
Only three things, to my recollection, did I see coming early on and ended the way I expected - why these two people, who is most likely to die, and who the “final/real” villain is. Spoiler: it’s always a shared tragic, traumatic childhood experience, the loyal/lovesick friend/family member, and the old, rich guy. Is that really a spoiler or just tired tropes?
My ONLY beef is Ahn Bo Hyun’s storyline. Did he really have to act that way ‘til the very end ... I guuuueeeeeessss?? Was it necessary? Absolutely not! Like I get, I understand, it makes sense - that’s does not negate the fact I dislike people like his character and it sort of feels like a cop out, he really didn’t have to be extra like that and some actions had more plot value than it needed to be.
Overall, this is a top 5 2020 kdrama for me!
