First Impressions

The pilot episode was promising giving beautiful cinematography & filming, the acting is strong & already has me invested in each characters' stories, it's funny but the action hints at the darkness that will come, & the music nicely sets the tone. To speak more on the acting, I expected it from the veteran actors. & though I knew Jisoo was good enough since she was chosen as the lead, I was still surprised by how she doesn't seem like a rookie actress. I think she will only get better as the story progresses. As for the characters, Hanna's bold attitude definitely caught my attention, the room 207 girls have my heart, & Boonok may be annoying to some but I like her as of now. I'm not familiar with the political climate during that time period so I can't speak on that but the bad guys are presented as cult-like & not in a positive light. I think it will take me some time to get used knowing who is who & what their party represents though.
