2nd season is a must, please!
I just watched the last episode(10th) and I can't believe the second season isn't yet under production. Google says fans are desperate for it but I feel different, a little bit lost, anxious and I have a headache because the final episode was too much mysterious I can't bear with the ambiguous interpretations going on in my brain now. The story is overwhelming, the events are well organized, logical sequences, most importantly, 8 months of production, this is unbelievably amazing, the drama crew must have worked themselves so hard to get it aired on December 18th when we're all struggling with the pandemic and casual lockdowns as well as new infectees every day, death cases and our families being involved, this drama makes you really feel like home and I feel like I am exactly like the survivors, I didn't reach my sweet home yet. Well, I hope we do by the next season, I myself need a second season for myself to find my sweet home since I never felt home before, I am still looking for one.Moreover, the music used in this drama was wisely chosen, an award for choosing the right music must be created if it wasn't existing already.
Can't help but talk about the OST, it's way too much fitting into the drama theme as well as the graphics.
Many actors deserve respect for being professional and faithful to the roles they played in this drama, it didn't' feel like acting at all. I will add them to my fav list.
My impression is beyond imagination. I don't deny I didn't expect a lot when I started watching the drama, I liked the poster only without reading the plot summary, now I am dying for a second season.

Not only the monsters are bad
This is a great drama I've already watched twice.The main and supporting cast all give excellent performances, including the children.
The effects of living in an environment where society has broken down leads to very different behaviours for the characters, as they really need to pull together in order to survive. The changing opinions and morals of some, as it becomes apparent no one is safe from infection, makes for many characters developing with each episode.
Our human establishment is yet again to blame for messing with things that shouldn't be and fearing everything different. Tarring everyone exposed, with the same brush, can also be seen as the way in which so many laid blame after the outbreak of Covid. Lessons never seem to be learned, as this has and will, happen time and time again.
The pace is a mix of slow burning, menacing and violent. It isn't a particularly happy watch, but there are many touching moments.
The soundtrack is excellent too.
I believe Netflix are waiting for ratings stats before committing to series 2 and I so hope it goes ahead, otherwise the ending is less than pleasing; that would be my only complaint.
I LOVED it.

legit amazing
I read the webtoon vers of Sweet Home starting from 2018 when the author started publishing the chapters. The live action vers did a great job of following the original storyline. the casting is actually amazing...everyones seems so fit for their character..the ost is amazing too. I love how they incorporated warriors from imagine dragons cuz that was in the league of legends soundtrack too which totally makes sense. The cinematography is on another level of genius and the fact that they actually casted Troy James for the spider monster...wow..all in all id give it a 10/10 but bc the ending is so incomplete I'll give it a 9/10 since we're gonna have to wait and see the answers to all our questions. (but honestly the choice of casting all these iconic actors and actresses was genius) probably the best horror/thriller out thereWas this review helpful to you?
Great cast and acting
I wanted to watch this show bc of the cast first, many talented people appeared and i completely loved their acting (specially sungcheols). Now, about the story, between episode 2-5 i found it kinda boring, + i didn't like the way they added gci, it looked horrible for me. The next episodes i really was able to enjoy them bc of everything that happened and the way the characters developed. I don't know, i definitely wouldn't rewatch sh bc o think i will feel the same way, but im glad the show is having a S2 to solve every question about the ending.Was this review helpful to you?
As a WEBTOON reader, I was pleasantly surprised
I was really excited for this drama adaptation ever since I finished reading the WEBTOON, and the show did not disappoint. If you are looking for something that keeps everything from the WEBTOON into the drama, this is not what this show does. However, I feel like this is even better since it helps to keep you intrigued.Plot: At the start, the plot was a little slow since I expected they the whole WEBTOON would be put into the 10 episodes. For new watchers, I feel like it’s the perfect pace to try and understand the characters since their development or personalities really define the story. The beginning has the most similarities to the WEBTOON, so it may feel a little repetitive (I found it cool to see how scenes were portrayed in real life). For the middle of the plot, if you were expecting the characters to start going up the building and fight monsters like the original, you’ll be a little disappointed. There is still a lot of action, but the show focuses more on the character development (which is my favorite aspect of every show). By the time you’re in the middle and you’re still contemplating if you want to still watch or not since it’s not as fast as you expected, KEEP WATCHING. The last episode is so worth it in my opinion. I would have been satisfied if the story ended here, but at the very end of the last episode, they leave the opportunity for another season.
Cast: The cast did really good at portraying their characters in my opinion. Maybe it’s because I get really attached to shows, but I felt pretty much every emotion they tried to show. For the monsters, the CGI exceeded my expectations. Of course, they are not 100% realistic, but it’s really close. Since the CGI was really good, I was actually scared to see if some monsters from the WEBTOON would still be shown in the drama (since some of them are kinda scary).
Music: I really liked the OST for the show, but I feel like a lot of the music wasn’t the best choice to go along with the scene on the screen. I would definitely listen to some of the songs on my own.
Rewatch Value: I don’t usually rewatch shows (I’ve only rewatched 2 fully out of I don’t know how many dramas I’ve watched), but I see myself rewatching this in the future. There’s enough depth to the characters that you would notice more about each person when you rewatch (keeping the show interesting). There were also many impactful scenes that just don’t lose rewatch value (I see myself rewatching the last episode many times).

Okay. I now totally get what the hype is about!!!
[Disclaimer] this review is based on my own opinions of the drama. Thank you for understanding. :)I did not expect this drama to keep me up at night and make me binge-watch it. I've hated horror as a genre ever since I was little and I never grew into liking it. But something drew me in... at first it was the soundtrack and the background music used and then the story became gripping and I just couldn't let go.
I'm not sure I would re-watch the whole thing, but certain parts for sure. I liked the production, the actors were well chosen as well, but what shocked me the most was that even characters I thought would be flat and only served filler characters were actually written as multi-dimensional characters, you just needed to give them time to show their true nature. And I absolutely loved that.
I highly recommend this drama. It's totally worth the hype.

ANIME LOVERS AND KDRAMA FANS UNITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't be fooled sweet home is not sweet but bitter in reality. A short story of the people living in an apartment trying to fight off DEMONIC BEINGS which is EPICCCCC. The graphic designs are perfect and the monster don't look like a 1$ budget kids cartoon show. The story is FAST PACED pact with cool action scenes and EPIC MUSIC.The characters in the show are all unique and interesting, some people even have different favourites. Like any Netflix thriller, CURSE WORDS are used to make the character seem more vulnerable and emotional. You can feel the TERROR and the ANXIOUSNESS of the characters desperately trying to survive.

Surprisingly awesome
At first, i was skeptical. Whether that was because our main character didnt feel like a main character or that he was one of the most unlikable main characters ive seen in a long while. Whether it was because there were too many characters to focus on just one or whether it was because there were simply too many monsters. However, for some reason i kept watching and im glad i did. To those who aren't sure if they'd like it, you will. Its not just about monsters and action but a story. I have to admit i ended up loving the main character Hyun Su and understanding him. With all that said, i hope to see him back for a season 2Was this review helpful to you?
Characters were wonderfully developed and was a joy to watch ALL of them grow as a person. Not just the main cast.
Like the art style. Design and animation of the monsters are AMAZING!!!
Love the music! It is unique and matches the moments really well.
Love that it shows all the different types of issues we all go through in life. How we all fight our problems each day. No matter how we had lived our lives, how others see us, who we truly are, in the end what will we choose to do. Will we be consumed and give up, or will we continuously fight to do the right thing.
