Disappointment

I was completely disappointed after seeing the season-2. Story depth, build-up, details, explanation, motive more or less everything was lacking. Over predictable story. It seemed that they could have made it somehow and released it. After a while, I didn't understand where the black masked ninja was coming from. I don't know if they are monsters or people.
The only positive aspect is the fighting scenario .
The finish looked like another season might be on the way.
Personal rating: 5/10

SAME STORY, DIFF YEAR

As a geong seong creature Kdrama lover I'd highly admit that this season was a filler. A pure filler. There's nothing that made sense everything felt left out, stretched & extended. Was eagerly waiting for S2 but the disappointed is genuine. I absolutely love the main leads & their love story & was hoping to see more of it.
I feel like even the most side character in S1 for eg. the japanese artist, the tailor, the 3 people of the HOUSE OF GOLDEN TREASURE, Han so hee's father, lady Mayda's husband- had their own story. All characters were likeable & presentable. In S2 i still don't know who the oldest grandmaa was (which i thought was lady Mayda)?? Who's the police girl??? who's the new friend of tae sang rn??? who's this new disabled polio guy??? who's his Grandma??? who's the lil girl beside Lady Mayda's son? idk if she has a daughter??

i was so so disappointed by the plot. Heavily unnecessary!!
I feel like the best Kdrama are the once which leave you wanting for more but never release S2
eg. 25 21 (despite the ending viewer would still want S2 but it will just end up the essence 25 21 had) that's the reason why we shouldn't over exploit the story!!

The Fuck bro I could have written a much better story ???
For all the people wondering whether to watch it or not- pls don't. Watch a summary on youtube. don't waste 4 hrs watching this.

The First Rule of Fight Club is You Don't Talk About Fight Club

Not really my favorite type of Kdrama. But if you want to see Park Seo Joon get the s#@t beat out of him every other scene, then this is the drama for you. Same for Han So Hee. It was an action-packed fantasy thriller where the main star were the highly choreographed and graphic fight scenes. I rated this fairly high because I can appreciate the production value and the enormous amount of stunt work that had to go in to all the fight scenes. The acting was superb, The story line, both part 1 and 2 were well written, and the ending (the extra ending past the credits) was sublime. I was not expecting that at all! I also enjoyed seeing Kim Kang Min, a contestant on Physical 100, playing a guest role in it.

The only thing for me that I didn't like was all the fighting which came with lots of blood, and all the crunching and breaking sounds (kudos to the sound engineer). It was just too much. However, I realize it would not be the same without. it. It was a good Kdrama, just not my cup of tea. Out of the two parts, I enjoyed part one better. I enjoyed the historical sets and costumes. There also seemed to be more story than fighting. But, again, this is an action fantasy thriller, and it definitely lived up to that.

Another Disappointment

I thought I'd give this series another try, hoping that the team would do a better job this time. Episode 1 & 2 got me quite excited. I dropped this series after Episode 3. What's wrong with writers these days... Please don't insult your viewer intelligence time and times again. Would any sane person willing to make an appointment with an unknown sadistic serial killer in a desolate place without bringing any kind of weapon or camera to take footage for evidence? Also the said police that tailing them, where were they? Or does the writer thinks that South Korea have such an incompetent police department? Really writer? Really?

Não entendi o proposito de mais uma temporada

Acho que gyeongseong creature poderia ter terminado na primeira temporada talvez com mais alguma episódios e essa passagem de tempo, mas de qualquer forma sou contra, achei extremamente triste que ele sofreram tanto mesmo com o final feliz, senti falta ainda de uma introdução ao amigo dele, o avô dele era o carinha lá mas sim? Porque ele ajudou Maeda? O quanto ele sabia? Qual o envolvimento dele nisso tudo?
E o final aberto? Acho que não vai ter uma terceira temporada e nem queria vou supor que todo mundo vai morrer e vai ter os que vão conseguir sobreviver, mas e os outros personagens? O amigo dele não voltou a aparecer, o menino com o najin que iria ser preso o que aconteceu? E o capitão sabendo de tudo, tendo visto os monstros? E até o subordinado dele? Enfim, ficou tudo muito rápido e com a conclusão que já esperava.
