    Loved the characters and the visual aspects of the drama. They incorporated a theatrical play to mimic the thought process of Kyung Yi. They also added animation (comic style, game style.) Truly wonderful. My only gripe would be the ending didn't answer the most important questions, which left me quite unsatisfied.

    ○ 2022/09/06 (September 6th, 2022)

    For a comedic movie, I didn't laugh once. The plot was pretty basic, and it didn't help that I was not invested in any of the characters. Scene compositions were nothing special.

    ○ 2022/09/06 (September 6th, 2022)

    A heartwarming drama. I didn't cry as much as I thought I would have, but it was sad nonetheless. All the stories were well thought-out. The bond between Sang Gu, Na Mu and Geu Ru was 100% the best part of this show. The story was unique too. I can't think of another drama (or another media platform like webtoons, books, etc) about trauma cleaners.

    ○ 2022/09/06 (September 6th, 2022)

    A very average drama. Premise was interesting but it didn't live up to its full potential. Acting was fine, but the dialogue wasn't. The dialogue was supposed to sound cool, however, it had the opposite effect. I kept cringing every time a "cool" line was said. Music was not memorable. 3/5 of the main characters were fantastic. (Roy, Soo Kyung, and Na Byul) Eui Sung had okay moments, but I found him annoying most of the time. Tae Joon was really bland; did not like him at all. Every romantic-line fell flat for me. (NaSung, NaRoy, and TaeKyung) Production was the worst part. Unbelievable stunt-doubles, fake punches that were really obvious, them touching their earpiece really obviously, etc. Little mistakes like these ruin theviewing experience.

    Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes

    ○ 2022/09/09 (September 9th, 2022)

    Intriguing idea, but everything turned this into a crap show. Too many flashbacks were shown. I wouldn't mind it all that much in a typical drama. However, I t was incredibly redundant to see the same scenario repeated after I had just watched it ten minutes earlier because this show lasts an average of two hours. The acting was mediocre. Most of them were just too stiff in how they delivered their lines. The emotional scenes had little effect on me as a result. They can change in the future, so I won't label them as bad actors. Music was just too loud all the time. Although the CGI was blatantly artificial, it was tolerable.

    I liked the story more compared to the original. Acting was fine, nothing was exceptionally bad or good. Edawakare is still a great character. His dry humour always steals the show. Overall, it was fine.

    ○ 2022/09/10 (September 10th, 2022)

    If you want to have fun watching this drama, I suggest turning your brain off. The cases were quite simple and predictable. Acting was below average. Music was the best part. Bruh I love the song that's played. You either hate or love the characters. I personally didn't like them. You could tell the production was low-quality too. Despite all that, I could tell the actors had fun filming.

    ○ 2022/09/10 (September 10th, 2022)

    Definitely more low-quality than the first one. Shaky camera work, lacklustre fighting scenes because you could obviously tell it was fake, abrupt music cut off, etc. Despite its many flaws, the 2 main leads here have more chemistry than the first ones. The acting is better, but not by a large margin.

    Cute friends-to-lovers drama. 4 episodes was enough to tell a love story. I loved all the music, and the scenes between Sun Woo and Eun Soo were pretty cute.

    ○ 2022/09/11 (September 11th, 2022)

    All the cases were pretty lacklustre. Acting was atrocious by the supporting roles, especially in the first case. I liked the same song that was in season 1, but I didn't like the ending song. Characters were bland, and the worst part is that nothing was answered. What's the point of making a season 2 if you're not going to answer any of the unanswered questions in season 1?!? I liked the production in the second case where they dress up in historical clothing and act out the past stories they were supposed to solve. The only gripe was that the background noise in the scenes set outside were far too loud.

    ○ 2022/09/13 (September 13th, 2022)

    Good drama. I get why they added Ha Na in this story; to let the viewers wonder what's the best choice of action if you want revenge/justice. However, one thing they could've done better is actually make her equally loveable. We don't know her backstory, her interests, family, etc. That's what made her so... bland. Other than that though, it's a solid drama I'd still recommend. I think it's slightly overrated, but hey! People always have differing opinions :)

    ○ 2022/09/14 (September 14th, 2022)

    On the better side of web dramas. The story is a bit cliche, but executed well. Although, I would much prefer if they all had powers like Chan Yi, where high school students try to get by with useless superpowers. That would be a concept I would like to watch. The acting was... okay. Most characters were pretty great.

    A really unique concept. While it had good acting, I didn't feel emotionally drawn to any of the characters. P.S: The hair was atrocious in this drama. I'm not kidding. Whenever any character showed up on screen, I was mainly focusing on their hair because it was so distracting.

    ○ 2022/10/31 (October 31st, 2022)

    One of the most compelling and thoughtful movies I've ever watched. A high-quality production with loads of little details, wondrous characters that makes you question your morals, and some of the best acting in my opinion. Parasite is truly one of the most groundbreaking movies, deserving of its international success.
