I just finished it, gave it a 10. I'm too tired to give thoughts yet other than WOW! and I need to watch some major fluff next. lol Since it's too late to start anything now, my dreams are gonna be- erm interesting :p
Ok, so episode 8 ** Noooooooooooooo poor Angel T-T. That scene with Jonghye headed towards the doctor with all the blood was pretty epic. BTW That was some great police work. they mistook the body of the PE teacher for the serial killer and even nursed the serial killer back to health, thinking he was the PE teacher. Ummm The PE teacher's body had been sitting in the ice and snow for days. Therefore, he would have been frozen through and through. THey came upon the "dead serial killer" just moments after he had died. Don't you think it's suspicious that he's completely frozen? There would have still been some body warmth that soon after death. I thought the ending was pretty awesome and disturbing. The way they all banded together and orchestrated how to corner him, freak him the heck out, then eliminate him. This can be interpreted in 2 way. His interpretation before he died was that he won (turned them all into monsters like him). And I kinda see that, except that I feel they were justified in killing him. Whereas, he was never justified in his killings. 2. They won. Thinking in terms of the game. They "punished" the one with the most sins, plus they survived to live another day. :) I love how Eunsung turned the tables on him and used his childhood against him. So I loved this series, it's definitely one that makes you think. I spent the whole series contemplating what I would have done had I been in their situation. **Would I have tried to rat out my fellow classmates to save my hide? Would I have tried to formulate ways to escape? Would I have worked so hard to save everybody like MuYeol? Or, in the end, would I have let him get in my head and offed myself like poor Angel? ** All of the actors in this show were top notch. I can't wait to see more of their work. I have seen Hong Jong Hyun in a few other dramas. :)


THE MONSTER IN THE CORNER!
I rate episode 1 a zzz 6..but i know in mind that the majority really love it... and i hope that episode 3 and above will gave me the feeling of an 8 or 9 =) ps: why do most of the cast looks constipated?...especially the girl ^w^
The synopsis sounds promising and I almost started watching this some time ago - but do they really keep up the tension for eight episodes? It appears to be the perfect material for a movie of 100 minutes, but an entire drama....? And why is it called "White Christmas"? I only want to see christmas trees and presents when it snows heavily outside and it's December. And no christmas songs - maybe I should watch it next christmas?

Oooh believe me, once you watch it all the way through. You'll be amazed at how much they fit into just 8 episode :D It's amazing how much is going on. My mind would have exploded if they had smushed all that story/info into an hour and a half movie. :)

I already put it on my plan-to-watch list... for next christmas. ;) (Btw, it reminds me of a movie everyone was talking about a couple of years ago... have to search for it some time.)

I will let you know - I'd like to know myself. :p
**SPOILERS AHEAD**

I just finished this drama & gave it a 7......it had the makings of a great drama (it could have been The Breakfast Club meets The Shining) but too many "too stupid to live" moments ruined it for me.

The police/special forces might as well have not turned up for all the use they were.

The "bad guy" didn't convince me that he was truly evil or menacing like Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs. Also I found the Bad Guys sidekick laughable.

The ending wasn't believable based on how they had all acted in confrontations with the bad guy up till then .... they were all so hesitant & placid i didn't buy that they would do what they did at the end....the only one whose ending was believable was Angels he was troubled from the get go & his demise was to be expected sooner or later.
Yay it's amazing! Here I come episode three! (And I avoided RF's spoiler, phew! :))
Writing & directing were really great but i wish they had chosen better actors for this drama.
I liked it because it was different to what I usually watch when it comes to korean dramas. It did have some flaws...and some of the characters were really stupid, but I enjoyed it.
