Mindless fun
Hello, first of all I want to apologize for any grammatical mistake in the review English isn't my first language and I never took specialized classes to learn it at a somewhat professional level, with that out of the way I 'am kind of new to K-dramas I only started watching them when covid began so please be gentle with me (／≧ω＼).
Story: (6-7/10)
without going into too much details I'll try to stay as vague as I can, there is not a lot going on story wise at least not the first half of the show it's basically as the synopsis says students try to survive a zombie outbreak the first 6 episodes are very slow in my opinion but by the end they did a great job building this sense of urgency and uncertainty it definitely has some common clichés but it should be expected as this is a Drama after all. One more gripe that I have with the show is the lack of development in characters luckily the acting is very good so it's not that big of a deal. Overall the story for what is there is decent nothing groundbreaking but it will keep you entertained.
Acting: (8/10)
This is where the show excels the most, I had never heard of Yoon Chan Young, Park Solomon, Park Ji Hoo and Jo Yi Hyun but they all performed great the supporting cast was one of the best I've seen in a while they do a great job making you relate to the characters and root for them (the zombies were very scary and well played too)
Music: (5-6/10)
Nothing special here I don't even remember one song from the score it does the job and builds the scenes correctly.
Rewatch value (6/10)
I 'am very biased here I usually don't rewatch shows unless I was very touched by it and in this case while the show is good it's nothing spectacular I don't see why someone would rewatch unless a season 2 is announced in a few years
Overall (8/10)
While the show is nothing special if you are like me and like horror, gore and apocalyptic settings this show is good fun, if you are looking for something with a deep story and meaningful interactions this is not what you are looking for.
