Great Action
I loved the mix of action and storyline. Not once did I get aggravated with the characters. There was a good mix of fighting and building up the story. Even the back stories were interesting to me. I’m looking forward to a second season. I would recommend and rewatch (I usually do not rewatch shows). ?? ?? ???????? ?? ???????? ?? ???????? ?? ???????? ?? ???????? ?? ??????? they really want a freaking easy for these reviews huh ?

not sure about this...
so, as my favourite male actor is Park Hee-soon, I was waiting for this drama quite eagerly.Also several other great actors on the starring list, so I started watching this and...
...I don't know... story is known from other formats before with some variations (x men etc.), the story starts veeery slowly, and I was just waiting for something to... happen really? I have seen 8 episodes yet, not Park Hee-soon in sight? Is he really in this drama?
Not sure about the storyline either, so genetically gifted people have genetically gifted kids and they try to hide and protect them from the evil forces of the North? I will give this another chance and watch some more episodes, but as of yet I am a bit underwhelmed.

Superhero Goodness.
This show is very good. Pacing is good. CGI is good. Acting is good. Everything is SUPER-good. :)I was thoroughly surprised when watching this show for the first time that I accidentally binged all 7 episodes during the first week. Although the pacing isn't very fast, every moment and second of of each episode is worth to look at. Character backgrounds, fight scenes, and stories are all very well made. I also really love Bongseok and Huisoo's Chemistry on the screen. It isn't your typical high-school romance trope, and it feels very wholesome.

Powerful stories about life and family
If I'm going to pick one thing about this series as a review, it's the flashbacks. They showed us the challenges of living, be it with special powers or as an ordinary human being.And then they touched on the relationships of adults.
Then parents and their kids.
It is very touching. Every single episode with flashbacks is very touching. The director knows how to create the scenes, and what sequence it should be to capture the audience and deliver the message the writer wants.
Forget about superpowers. The flashbacks are more powerful and meaningful than their superpowers.

Is this a teen drama?
I tried so hard to watch this. However, it’s a teen drama and I don’t do HS dramas. If I wanted to watch a HS drama, I would watch a HS drama. Friends told me I have to wait until epi 9 before it gets good. It’s already epi 5 and no Zo In Sung.Contrast this with the other superhero show broadcasting now, Uncanny Counter 2, which as been action from the get go. (That show suffers from other problems but action wasn’t one of them) No need for patience till almost midway through the season. And 20 episodes? Come on, do better with the editing seriously.
This is also a rip off Fantastic 4 and other broody teenage superhero movies trying to tame their super powers. Heroes, the American TV show, especially comes to mind. This is such a rip-off.

Moving Experience!
I've reached the end of this series, and what a ride it has been! From start to finish, it was a truly moving experience. The characters are fantastic, and the acting is superb, especially by Han Hyo Joo, who clearly brings a veteran touch to her role. Hae Soo's dad is an absolute gem—a lovable character who brings warmth to every scene.Their individual stories and the intertwining stories of the three children were brilliantly portrayed, contributing to the overall greatness of the series.
There's something about the layers in each episode that make it worth revisiting. Overall, this series has left a lasting impression on me. It's not just a show; it's an emotional journey that I've completed, and I'm grateful for the experience.

ONE OF THE MOST ENJOYABLE K-DRAMAS I'VE WATCHED SO FAR!!!
I'm not very good at saying review but let me give my thoughts on the drama as an avid kdrama viewer.-Story is well written. Solid premise, intriguing plot, well-rounded characters, and dismissible plot holes.
-Actors fits they're characters so well that I could feel the tension in their expressions. The minute details of how they express their emotions whooo! I'm blown. They really got them right!
-Music is good as well. It manages to make me feel more and be more connected in the story. But there were parts that they're a bit too loud for my liking, maybe it's just me.
-Rewatch value-yes of course I will definitely rewatch this but I WOULD ABSOLUTELY CUT the drawn out flashback like OMG it was frustrating to be honest. I've never missed characters like this! I CANNNNT BELIEVE HOW LONG THIS FLASHBACK IS -___- I'm not really that invested in their history because we viewers were not that dumb to figure things out without them putting so much detail in it. I'm more interested with what's going to happen in the future -____- I know they're important details as well but they dragged it on a bit too much for my liking I'm more than exasperated!
NEVERTHELESS OVERALL THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST ENJOYABLE FANTASY KDRAMA I'VE EVER WATCHED!!!

moving in all the right directions.
so this k-drama I was hesitant on watching only because I had a hard time finding where to stream it. now that I found my ways I was really missing out from not watching this at the beginning when it first aired… or was I… this show is really that great that I have binge watched when I find a lot of k-dramas hard too because of their lengthy episodes.this drama proves again my point that I’m capable of enjoying dramas and being so hooked that I don’t feel like time is dragging on. It’s because there are so many different elements put on the table for viewers that I can’t help but be immersed. There are likeable main characters, fast paced action, romance, high school relationships, dealing with anxiety and bullying, and gore.
This drama is such a fresh idea to me. It has been done before with a lot of American superheroes etc. But with this it just feels so new. The budget helps with making this drama a good watch, it’s expensive and each episode feels so cinematic. It’s intense in the right places and has a good pace. I like every plot this drama picks up, and I really like the sets of main characters with the parents and their children.
So this drama is really starting to pick up, and it never was boring at all. It has a good setup and the hook that comes in the middle is thrilling. I definitely will rewatch this and recommend to anyone honestly. I can’t put a name on the genre and that’s what makes it so unique. It’s a 10/10 for me.

A show filled with love, but with a twist
I rarely write any rewiews, but this show was something else.Every last frame was perfectly timed, the music was perfectly placed. Even the fighting scenes had my heart racing.
„Moving“ shows what it’s like to have a different approach among the families. Yes love and the powers were the main reason for being very careful outside their houses, but they showed us how they handle it in the right way.
Every actor did such an amazing job playing their role, it was a rollercoaster of emotion, action packed with very messy scenes.
Overall a wonderful series, with a deep meaning behind of it. Waiting for season two will be hard, but than again if it drops it will be worth the wait.

It rember me a littel bit to the story of Herors, but a littel bit darker ;-) (deutsch / german)
(Heroes is an American mystery and science fiction television series that aired from September 25, 2006 to February 8, 2010)The Sory itself is quite bloodthirsty, so for people who don't like gore, please get eye patches :-)
What I thought was great is that the individual characters that play a role in the story were explained how they got that way, praise to the story writers. because that's how it was always explainable and how it fits into the whole story,
Question is is there a second season?
Material would be there, the only question is which stories the entire characters will then meet again.
Die Sory selbst ist rech Blutrünstig, also für Menschen die keine Gemätzel mögen bitte Augenklappen besorgen :-)
Was ich super fand ist, dass die einzelnen Charakter die in der Geschichte eine Rolle spielen erklärt wurden, wie sie so geworden sind, lob an die Geschichtenschreiber. denn so waren es auch immer erklärbar wie es zur gesamt Geschichte passt,
Frage ist gibt es ein e zweite staffel?
Matrial wäre da, ist nur die frage mit welchen geschichten die gesamt charaktäre dann sich wieder treffen.

What parents can do for their children
Likes1. My favorite character is Jang Juwon! His wailing when Jihee died had me in tears too.
2. Kim Bong Seok and Jang Hee Soo were cute. Esp Bongseok who was so fluffy and sweet with a big heart. When he floated for the first time.
3. Lee Mihyun and Kim Dushik live story in ep 8-9 was ???. All those glances, the flying donkatsu delivery. First kiss and Dusik floated. "I feel like I'm dying"
4. Lee Jae Man and his son's love for each other.
5. Bungaeman saving everyone in the end with super powerbank energy. The buses he crashed ?.
6. Even the Nokor stories were so sad. They were also victims.
7. Ilhwan who became a real teacher to the students.
8. How the parents fought so hard to protect their kids from the evil organization.
Dislikes
I dont even know what to write. Maybe more Kim Dusik scenes. Maybe more episodes (20 eps didnt seem that long). Wishing for Season 2.
Rating: 9.5/10
