A successful story in webtoon
Demon hunters pose as workers in a noodle shop in an effort to catch evil spirits hoping to find eternal life.
This drama will give you reasons to fight for yourself and your loved ones without losing your own self. As one of the factors that I love about this drama is the fact the So Mun is the youngest among the Counters, but the most powerful and "The Ace" of the group. Young people are more than just their age! He is also indeed one of the best character developments a Kdrama has offered. Good friends and support are important for your growth. Choose your people, wisely!
This drama will show you that all your emotions are valid, you'll just need to know how to control them properly. Each one of us has an "evil desire", beware of it before they control you.
This drama will make you realize that you can be your own hero. And the fact that even superheroes need to rest, and recharge.This drama is super good.
YOU WILL GET AMAZED.
FUN FACTS:
Out of 400-500 auditions of Jeo Byeong Gyu (So Mun) sa The Uncanny Counters got it.

BETTER THAN YOU THINK
I watched this because of sejeong, and I usually like romance, simple, slice of life dramas. BUT THIS. This was something else. Such a fun, enjoyable drama that I can look forward to on the weekends because every single episode is exciting. Has some really heartfelt moments where I cried like a baby but also satisfying scenes when they took on the evil spirits. This is just a great drama overall that makes you feel the whole spectrum of emotions. I will say there are some plotholes and bits that don't add up 100% but overall, the main plot works fine and its not something you should nitpick or be too concerned about. Just enjoy the action! AND THE ACTING IS GOOD AS (the evil spirits were actually evil and not just cringey evil acting)Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

after romantic cliches uncanny counter is a splash of water on my face on a hot day
it has been a real long time since I added a drama to my top 10 list. And uncanny counter succeeded on being my 2nd favorite drama all time. Actually I had little prejudice before starting to it cuz I have never seen old main leads and the trailer was not really attractive to me but I decided to give it a try since I'm on my 16 days school break.The first episode was actually little boring to me cuz I don't usually watch things that has fight or whatever but somehow uncanny counter actually kept me in. I watched total of 3-4 episodes that day. The more I go on the more I liked it and adored it. After those romantic cliches uncanny counter was like a splash of water on my face on a hot day. The way their chemistry growed episode by episode was amazing. I really liked how mun risked his own life to protect his friends and family. Motak's story was really sad especially when he lost his girlfriend without even talking after his memory came back. But if you ask whether I don't have any disappointments, there is. It's about hana's story. I actually thought that they would give a bigger story on her past life. Maybe I didn't get her story or it was less.
As I said above I was sick of romance dramas but here mun's and hana's chemistry was out of this world but without any of love lines. This is what I want from other dramas so that we can feel their sincerity ? and their true feelings.
Lastly for the music, it was not that bad, close your eyes and meet again really got me in. I especially listened meet again at least 30 times.
Overall this is a great drama which has the potential to make you both cry, laugh and surprise. 10/10 for me!

SO EXCITING!!
Okay if you're reading the review to ask yourself whether you want to watch it or not, lemme tell you this: WATCH IT RIGHT NOW!!! It is hands down my favorite Korean drama. If you like action or thriller, this is the perfect drama for you. This drama also has snippets of comedy and romance, but not at all cringy. The excitement really never stops. Even when they aren't doing something, it is still interesting because the storyline is captivating. I don't want to be too dramatic, but this drama is one of those dramas that you can't skip anything because every single moment is packed with juicy plots and twists. Anyway, overall, it is a great drama. Acting and casts are amazing, and I couldn't think of anyone else that would fit the roles better.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

The story is a bit unusual at 1st I was thinking is just all about supernatural and all but when u dig into it you see there is definitely much more interesting story to it ...the characters in this drama really acted well I can’t really wait to see the rest of the episode, m just hoping that nothing will happen to my favorite ajumma I won’t be able to bear it and m really curious how this drama will end...This is definitely a must watch is really interesting ,you get action ,crime ,supernatural,slight comedy ,little bit of tiny romance lol and also make sure u get u popcorn with you while watching u will definitely need it 😉and also the male main lead is really cute ☺️ 🖐🏻Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Best find of 2020 for me
I have been hooked on this show since episode 1 and truly a gem among some solid k shows for 2020... I truly have enjoyed the story, the cast and their back stories. I watch a lot of k shows and this definitely up there for myself for 2020. If you enjoy supernatural stories that have a family feel to it, this is perfect for you. I am nearly finished what has come thru on Netflix and I don't usually write reviews but for this and shows like Train, Kairos, Stove League, Backstreet Rookie and The Tunnel I have enjoyed watching in a couple of sittings. I hope they do come back with a few seasonsVond je deze recentie nuttig?
Really good and enjoyable !!
I really love this, it's on hold right now cause I can never complete a show at once for some reason I don't know why. I've watched till episode 14 and EVERY SINGLE EPISODE WAS SO DAMN GOOD. Now of course there were some boring moments, but every single movie and series on planet Earth does as well, so it's nothing new. But my goodness, the relationships between the main characters were cute and sweet and so AHHHHHH, their dynamic is frr the sweetest.Edit: I finally completed it and my opinion is still the same, still one of my favorites. Just started watching the second episode of season 2 so I hope it won't dissapoint.
PS: I don't pay attention to OSTs and music unless I really REALLY like them, so don't trust my rating on that too much.

I liked it, but...
I don't care for bullying, corruption, violence, and gore. If you like all those things, definitely give this show a watch, because it is extremely well-written. It's fast-paced (a little draggy toward the end), and pretty interesting throughout. There's a lot going on at all times, and I think you'll have a hard time deciding who is worse, humans or demons. This drama really highlighted man's capacity for evil. Personally, I think there was too much evil coming from too many places. It might have been better if there had been one Big Bad, as opposed to multiple bad guys.For the aforementioned reasons, my rating is lower than I'm sure most people think it should be.However, can we just talk about the cast? I'm a sucker for found family, and this drama really did a good job of demonstrating that. The Counters are people that, in normal circumstances, might never even travel in the same circles, let alone be friends. Once they got together, they truly were a family, bickering and all. The bickering was so great, because that's what real family does, "I can badmouth you because we're related, but no one else better say anything bad about you!" There were numerous emotional scenes that really worked - they made you feel their pain, but they also brought something that made you root for them.
Cho Byeong Kyu as So Moon - he's the newest Counter. He did amazing things with this role. His grief, his anger, his disability, and portraying teenage hormones all worked together to make him so interesting. He's a beautiful crier. Trying to learn his powers, then trying to control them, often skirting around what Counters are allowed to do. I loved his relationship with his grandparents, as well as his school friendships. The transfer of power from them taking care of him, to him watching out for them was really good. Also, I liked that, for the most part, he and Ha Na had a sibling relationship, and the writers didn't try to force a romance.
Yoo Joon Sang as Mo Tak. He's the strongest Counter. His character seemed to be the most fleshed out, since a lot of the show was about corruption, and he had been a cop. The romance aspect was a waste and completely unnecessary. He becomes the father-figure of the group of Counters, and he had some amusing scenes.
Kim Se Jeong as Ha Na. Angry Counter (that's what I called her). She had a chip on her shoulder a mile wide. She doesn't like to be touched, she doesn't attach to people and she's got that "keep away" vibe going on. First, this role was completely different than her role in Business Proposal (of course!), and if I didn't recognize her voice, I might not have known it was her. This was a character that, if not played well, you would totally hate her. She made it work, and I enjoyed watching her coming to terms with letting others into her life.
Yeom Hye Ram as Mae Ok. I hated her so much in Goblin and loved her so much here. She was the mom of the Counters, looking out for the others. She formed such a strong bond with So Moon, and when she had to heal him of his wounds, that just wrecked me. I loved her character.
There were some beautiful songs in the OST. As for re-watch - no. I'm not even sure I'll watch The Uncanny Counter 2. Just a little too much darkness for me.

Exciting super hero series with dark political undertones
In a world where demons escape from the afterlife and cause chaos on Earth, a group of special people called "counters" are humanity's defenders and protectors. When I see the word "Uncanny" the first thing I think about is the Uncanny X-men, super heroes with special unique powers, which is exactly what the 4 lead counters are. Very early on we're exposed to what they do, why they do it and how dangerous it is. So dangerous death might result from them trying to do their duty. 3 of the 4 counters work at a gourmet noodle shop which always has long lines when it's open. Shout out to the production team, those noodles look mouth watering and I had to go get food after that. The 4th counter dies and his power transfers to our unlikely hero.This new counter has a deformed leg from a childhood car accident that killed both his parents. His story is tragic but the hero is SUPER likeable. He's dealing with school bullying and a grandmother suffering from memory loss. It's impossible not to like or sympathize with him. As we learn more about each counter we realized they may be more connected than we thought. There's also chaebol level criminal happenings backed by politicians and dirty cops, showing high level corruption on a massive scale.
The villains are well fleshed out. There are 2 lead demons, both are easily hate-able especially the female one who seems to have a face made for bitch slapping. In some ways even with limited screen time they seem more interesting than the leads. The action is exciting which makes this an easy show to watch and recommend.
