A lot of questionable decisions and things that don't make sense

The things I hated :

The characters are probably the worst part of the drama. A lot of of them were either boring, dumb, unnecessary, annoying or whatever. There were just too many and some of them only existed to make the story longer such as the assembly woman, the blogger, the pregnant teen etc. A lot of the story arcs were also poorly done. I thought Eunji was gonna have some sort of hero arc or at least fight off Gwi Nam to redeem herself since they're both half zombies but NOPE. They also made Nayeon seem remorseful for what she did for 5 minutes and then proceed to kill her like WHY???

One of my complaints is with the FL. On Ju is an incredibly boring, dull and uninteresting character. She's also extremely stupid at times. When the zombies were coming at her in the canteen, what does she do you ask? SHE FREAKING SAT THERE AND WAITED FOR CHEONG SAN TO SAVE HER. When she found out her best friend and crush died, what does she say to her Cheong San aka her childhood friend? THAT EVERYONE SHE LIKES DIED. She also almost cause Cheong San to die in the same scene. If it weren't for him saving her, she would have died. BE MORE GRATEFUL FOR GODS SAKE. No to mention her constantly beating and kicking Cheong San in the first couple of episodes. I really don't know what Cheong San see in her.

The romance between Su Hyeok and Nam Ra was super unnecessary and boring if you ask me. Nam Ra also makes some stupid decisions even though she's suppose to be the smart one. She saw Nayeon wanting to murder Gyeong Su and what does she do? SHE FREAKING WAITS UNTIL NAYEON DID IT TO ONLY EXPOSE HER. Why couldn't you have done it sooner and prevent 3 death??? Also, when she heard there was zombies coming why did she have to count how many there were ??? How is that in any way shape or form helpful?? JUST RUN ALREADY.

Cheong San's mom who was literally dumb as hell, not to mention his dad who just magically disappeared??? The police force my goodness, y'all let a bunch of high schoolers beat you ass at survival. The science teacher, who told the police to retrieve the his computer from the school science lab to find a cure but only...THERE WAS NO CURE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Eunji who "set the school on fire" when she just sat a bunch of papers IN ONE ROOM ON FIRE.

On Jo's dad also had an unnecessary sacrifice, he could have escaped safely with the group but no, they had to kill him. They also didn't bother to explain how hybrids seem to work, how and why 3 of them are different which left me confuse. After almost 3 days without food except for a piece of chocolate bar, you'd think they'd be tired and exhausted but NOPE they still seem perfectly intact.

The female characters in the classroom group were all so useless. When they encountered zombies, the male characters literally ripped out doors and windows from the classroom to attack and defend. And what do the female characters do? THEY LITERALLY STOOD THERE DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. They didn't build up I-Sak and On Ju's friendship except for a couple of flashbacks so I felt nothing when she died.

The times taken for each character to turn into zombies also didn't make sense. It took the science teacher's son a couple of weeks (?) to turn into zombies. Then when the school got infected, it was 5 seconds. When I-Sak was infected, it was 20 minutes. And when Gyeong Su is infected, it took him like what? A couple hours??

The things I liked :

The bromance between Su Hyeok and Cheong San were amazing. The scene where they were hanging off each other on the window was so cute, really wished there was more moments like that. The cinematography and camerawork was great, the canteen scene when students started getting infected was the most notable one. How they escaped from one room after another was quite interesting as well even though it got a little repetitive, I still liked it for the most part.

MINJI, her existence just makes me happy.

The acting was quite impressive, even though they were given quite shitty characters, they actors and actresses still did a pretty good job portraying them. My favourite portrayal would be Lee Yoo Mi who played Nayeon and Yoo In Soo who played Gwi Nam.

Would I rewatch it? Most definitely as I love to rewatch shows after a while. It was overall okay, I did enjoy it at some part. Not as good as Kingdom or Train to Busan but still not the worst thing in the world.
