Finding Oneself
Read at Discretion:
How South Koreans name titles it is a mystery to me? The story itself is intriguing that keeps you glued to the screen. I would recommend everyone willing to see it. The title Nobody Knows or No One Knows a curious title for SBS Drama, and without realizing the viewer’s attention is gazing, not following the scenes as we are absorbed in a web of entanglements.
A director’s effectiveness to depict a story depends on the actors, locations, visuals, and what type of music he or she mixes into the scenes depending on the kind of drama. In this case, the viewer is captivated from the start in the Detective's search for answers. It is not flawless by no means, but it takes you on a steady journey through the compelling character studies from episode one to sixteen.
Director Lee Jung Heum had the fortunate pleasure of working with a few of the actors in his previous projects while it was his first time collaborating with screenwriter Kim Eun Hyang. Actress Kim Seo Hyung was a perfect choice for the apathetic character Cha Young Jin she portrays on camera, but we soon learn about the inner demons facing her regularly. Her character is easy to identify with; her role briefly and meaningfully without warning touches on serious topics. People interact with characters on various levels like myself, but if you find yourself drawn into the story, all the characters have splashy attributes.
Young Actor Ahn Ji Ho whose character Go Eun Ho has a longstanding relationship with KSH character is an incredible talent. He truly is a remarkable kid. The collaboration of talented actors draws us into their world of sorrow, enjoyment, and all the emotions mounting up every episode. Whoever sees, but does not observe the little intricacies involved are missing the grand scheme of things. The crime and mystery aspect holds up well, which keeps the watcher engaged.
Every character shot is necessary for the desired effect towards the end. I am not a particular fan of Park Hoon’s, but wow, he deserved credit for his acting skills. I am figuring out Jang Young Nam acting can blow me away sometimes even if it is a minor role or a significant role, either way, I am satisfied by her. The music deserves recognition like a lot of K-Dramas, but there are soundtracks out there that blend perfectly into the background of scenes like Nobody Knows. I will be adding the OST to my playlist. It is a compliment to the quality of music utilized.
The cinematography is breathtaking as the cinematographer or director artistic decisions utilized in the way of combining a dark mood and light mood for the viewer when it calls for it. I will mention this again, but everybody has different tastes in dramas, so it might not be for you. If you like to watch a well-crafted story unfolding slowly, yet a little predictable, I guarantee it will at least be an average to good crime, mystery, thriller drama. Again everything does not have to be realistic. It can stray a little from reality. It is a rarity for me, but below:
Final Rating: 9.14
Rewatch value is 7.48, as I need time to recoup maybe a year before I watch this excellent crime drama again.
Quick Note: Do not have high hopes watching this; instead, expect the least and you will be pleasantly surprised by this gem.
Can we truly be Saved under the right circumstances!!!
