Just give it a try!

At first, I'm not a big fan of the horror genre, bute I like supernatural themes and themes with shamnism and excoricm. And beacause of that I gave that one a try, after reading some recommendations of this one. After watching it, I can say: I really liked it.

The story was good - okay, with some flaws - but it make to want to watch the next episode as soon as possible.
This drama deals with exorcism (both the Christian and the shamanic exorcism), with very unique Korean traits. Even though the atmosphere is mostly dark and gruesome, the mystery and the characters' relationships pull you in. It has no romance at all, but the very strong family and friendship ties make this story a lot more valuable and compelling.

The cast was great. The characters were displayed greatly. Especially the character development during the series made my day, since they continously change their attitude and behavior. Every character has it's own special personality and his own well telled background story. The drama tells the story of three individuals who each experienced great tragedy in their past. While trying to deal with and overcome their miseries, they eventually clash years later, not knowing the connection they bear to each other.

The Music was really great and I listened to the soundtrack several times. Especially the title "Somewhere" fits this drama perfectly.

I will not watch it in the near future, since I know now the ending. But I'm pretty sure that I'll watch it again. All in all, a good drama and well worth the watch. I would recommend it if you're looking for something with dark, serious, and rewarding content. Have fun watching :)
