Bloody good!
This drama had a slow start, but bloody hell this series is so good. The character driven drama essentially is about the human relationships and their struggles against their own demons more than about the monsters. There's a good amount gore and humor that I often find in B movies (which I love btw), lots of blood, lots of action, lots of twists, amazing characters, STUNNING cinematography, love the soundtrack, and I'm pretty sure I now have a girl crush on the badass Lee Si-young.Rewatch value - I almost never rewatch anything, same goes with this one.

«Sweet Home» m’a surprise. Je ne m’attendais pas à vraiment aimer, et encore moins à dévorer les épisodes comme je l’ai fait, sachant que le genre ‘horreur’ n’est pas celui que je préfère, bien au contraire. L’histoire est originale, se passant en huis clos dans un bâtiment d’appartements et avec plusieurs des résidents comme personnages centraux, intéressante, pleine de suspense et d’actions, tout en réussissant également à être touchante par moments. Le début a été un peu lent, établissant la base, présentant les personnages un peu, etc. Mais le rythme s’accélère très rapidement ensuite, quand la réalité de la ‘monsterisation’ commence. Le tout, comme je disais, a donné un drama qui m’a surprise, et que j’ai fini par regarder en très peu de temps, vu ma curiosité de savoir ce qui allait arriver, comment tout allait se finir ! Je ne m’attendais pas à ça, mais je suis ravie d’avoir découvert « Sweet Home » !

Deze recentie kan spoilers bevatten
At first I thought that this was going to be a simple drama just about some people fighting monsters but it turned out to be so much more! Now I can fully understand why people prefer Song Kang's performance in this drama over some of his romantic roles because damn he really did amazing. The other characters were great too. Of course, my favourite character died again because yes everytime I have a favourite character in a drama that has a high chance of them dying, they always do. ?
The CGI monsters were scaring me so much at the beginning, it was almost unreal! Like I was legit thinking about dropping the drama somewhen along the first and second episode because the monster with the long tongue and the one with half of the head sliced off were scaring me so much. The other one that came later.. not so much, to be honest. Especially the flying eye one, it was just funny how weird that looked. ?
My final rating is 8.5/10 but I can't wait for the second season.

you gonna burst into tears
The opening of this drama is full of suspenses. The way, this drama introduces the characters is so good that it dwells in your soul and you start liking them. despite of some annoying characters. well, without those character the show wouldn't have been good. The characters holds their own stories and how beautifully they portrait the story can aslo be seen in the drama.As we know, choosing the right actor is the way to success of the drama/movie. I must say, not only the main leads but aslo the role of the side/supporting characters were played so excellently. each and every actor were of top notch. the acting was ace in the drama.
The story was typical with monster and human. It was all about how they gonna survive. The development of characters can be seen perfectly. In those 10 episodes of 1 hour, we experience many emotions, it gonna make you cry, scared, tensed , worry, excited and gives you chill. Plus every episode makes you to bringe watch it. I was planning to watch a episode per day but couldn't help it and end up watching it in one day!
The cinematography was intense and frightening . The graphics for the monster was also good. but they were not scary at all,alteast for me. beside this, i really enjoy the cinematography.
now, lets talk about the music. personally, I pay attention to the music too in dramas. good dramas with some good music is just my kick. This drama has really good, rocking song matching perfectly with the situation. i have seen in many dramas that they add music in almost every scene to create that effect which really annoys me. but, here it's not too much nor too less just perfect.
The ending makes you to long for more for which the season is coming soon. i hope it will be good as first one. keeping my hopes up, I will be desperately waiting for it.
I might be the late one because i usually don't watch thriller but this one caught me and made me watch more.. I never thought i will be watching this but now i'm loving it. it was best thriller for me with some simple plots. how to turn the simple plots into fantastic story, the team of this drama knows well.. thanks to the team.
small suggestion: please do not eat while watching this drama because it will make you loose your appetite. There so much blood
me myself is not a person to rewatch the drama BUT but this drama is making me feel like watching again already ^__^
100% rewatch value
hope review is usefull.

A Horror Staple
As you can see from the headline, Sweet Home was a horror staple. The first thing I noticed in it was the editing of the monsters and the costumes. The team did really well with that. They deserve the highest compliments for that. It was really realistic to the point where I got scared. I am usually unfazed by watching horror shows or movies at 2 in the morning, but this was done so well that I could only watch one episode a day because it left me quite unsettled.Moving on to the story, I would say that it is not predictable at all. It was actually a tad bit hard to understand but after 7 episodes I finally got it. It was fairly well written, but the cliffhanger was one of the worsts (or should I say best) ever. I'm still waiting for a season two but there was and has been no activity about that announced yet.
As for the cast, I can't express how much I love each and every single one of the members. Let's start with Song Kang. His versatility is just beyond words~ from high school popular boy (in Love Alarm) to demonic and monstrous teen. Secondly, Lee Jin Wook really had that raw feeling to him. He portrayed the role really well and I can't see anyone else doing that role at the moment. Lee Shi Young just represents were character so well; she really brings emotions like desperation and characteristics from her character's firefighter experience to life. Lee Do Hyun (damn, he's hot) started climbing up my favorite actors list after this drama; at first, I thought he would be one of those actors that could only play funny roles but his duality was shown well here. Finally, Go Min Si portrayed my hero Lee Eun Yoo so well; she's such a badass naive teen and that's something I can only dream to be. Her acting, as always, is top-tier; I didn't expect any less. Honestly, whoever casted did a really great job *insert clapping soundtrack*!
Overall, I would RECCOMEND this drama if you like the zombie and horror concept.

¿Cuál fue la necesidad?
Debo aclarar desde ahora que soy lectora del Webtoon, así que mi opinión se basa en comparar ambas versiones.Como fan de "Sweet Home" en Webtoon, esta versión me dejo muy desilusionada. La escencia del Webtoon está pero le cambiaron muchas cosas que hasta cierto punto parece ser otra historia y por desgracia, no le hace justicia a la original.
En el k-drama hay un punto en el que se puso algo aburrido para mí, lo que hace que mi interes disminuyera. La relación entre personajes... bueno, pudo ser mejor porque no sentí por completo la química entre ellos. Los efectos y los monstruos son los que me decepcionaron más, entiendo que son criaturas complejas y que no sería facíl recrearlos pero pudo ser mejor. Incluso, faltaron montruos porque son mucho más los que van apareciendo.
No tengo ni idea cómo van a manejar la segunda temporada, tenía esperanza que en esta segunda pudieran hacer referencia a "Shutgun boy" (precuela) ya que en esta se explica cómo surge todo este "virus" pero por como terminó, lo dudo mucho.

Let's start with the acting of the main leads. That was wonderful and now Lee Do Hyun and Go Min Si are some of my favorite actors of the new generation. Their characters and themselves are really different and the fact that they can play a role like this so well is amazing (I really enjoy Youth of May too). Song Kang is a really good actor but the type of character he played was not my favorite but he did a really good job! To be honest I was really impressed with the acting of everyone, even the support roles, and the children.
The plot was very interesting and the action scenes with Warriors by Imagine Dragons were so energetic. The monsters were really well made and realistic to the point that sometimes I was scared by them and the writers were really original with the choices of the features of the monsters.
This is the only drama that I rewatched and it feels like watching that for the first time every time, even a scene that I cried every time I rewatched that I cried but maybe it's only me because I cry very easily. Now I can't wait for the second season because I have so many questions that I want answers to and some theories that I want to be resolved. In the end, I really recommend this k-drama for all the people that want a really good horror drama and some different from the rom-com ones; and it's a really good starting for being a horror/thriller/crime dramas watchers as it did for me.

You should definitely watch this!
This is everything I didn't know I needed.One of the best dramas and tv shows overall I have ever watched. Story is amazing and shows what people are really capable of. Characters and their story are really well written and shown. Chemistry between characters is really wonderful. CGI effects and horror elements are chef's kiss and could not have been done better. Actors did their best and really gave it their all, showed characters emotions incredibly and their chemistry is over the roof. Second season will air this year so if you didn't watch already do it know because I guarantee you, you won't regret it! A must watch drama!

GOOD STORY, SOMETIMES LACKS EXECUTION
The story has many great ideas but sometimes fails to deliver on the execution of said ideas...The cast is great, very good actors and their performances are definitely the standout of the series.The music was abominable, so bad I can't begin to describe it, that's why the rating is lower than it could be...Without keeping music in mind it would probably be a 9.25...
Overall, I recommend checking it out!

It’s interesting
LOVED THE ACTING of all the characters. Normally I don’t watch violent/ gory shows but I decided to give this one a shot cause it lit has three seasons so I thought there must be a good reason. The monsters CGI took a lil while to get used to, at the beginning it was kinda laughable, but it is very interesting that u kinda just ignore the goofiness ( I mean it’s not meant to be realistic so I understand). The story is good, it does feel a bit messy at times which makes it a lil hard to understand cause u are just like ‘uhhh what?!’ but I think some stuff are explained in the later seasons. The cinematic shots are very good and creative. Overall I think it’s a good show to watch but it does sometimes feel like it’s lacking something.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
A hopeful gore-fest about monsters and monsters within us
WOW. I just finished this.Let me start by saying it is definitely very gorey. If you can't stomach that, you should stay away from this drama.
But it is so much more than just gore: The monsters are, at least in the beginning, incredibly fun to watch. It has a certain comic/anime feel to it. The acting is incredibly good and the music fitting, both in action-loaded an emotional scenes.
I loved the setting of this run-down house with all these characters that have somewhat lost their way in life but are rediscovering what it means to be human and alive.
In the end, the real monsters are not always those that have transformed, but those within us. The season finale was epic. I cannot wait for more. I also really really love Song Kang in this role - amazing acting with adorable monster eyes.
