just a short review for people who wanna watch
so i just finished this and after watching it i feel like leaving a review of reasons why you may wanna watch it and why you may not want to watch it. Plus my own opinions on the show as a whole. Ill try to keep it as spoiler free as possible.
WHY YOU MAY WANT TO WATCH:
1. it has good visuals and good gore. Looks realistic enough which adds to the gory/scary feeling of the series (its not a scary series though, just a little gory).
2. great acting which from all important characters, despite their not being many important ones. Especially the male and female lead did great.
3. The female lead in this is a rare one. Shes very cool and to not giveaway spoilers she gives off main character vibes. Shes one with questionable morals but strong convictions, a rare female lead in Korean dramas. Which makes her interesting as a character.
4. Interesting premise with a new evolutionary human species. Something you may have heard off but is not as common in television, which makes it unique. If you like a sort of "superior humans" kind off story premise, then id really recommend.
5. Short and easy to finish quickly, finished it in like a couple of hours (skipped some parts though).
quick and interesting start, catches the attention of the series quickly.
WHY YOU MAY NOT LIKE IT:
1. fast paced with a too complicated story line. Because its so short but the story line is more complex than that it makes the series feel sloppy and also creates plot holes as well as moments in the story were you're just confused. (probably the biggest con about this series).
2. Another negative aspect due to the short length of this series is the fact that you dont have time to connect with the characters. The mains even feel a little boring at times because you never fully become interested in them as their never explained too deeply as characters.
3. A semi boring main male lead. Quite weak for a male lead, and doesn't really give off the "main lead feel". Also this is furthered due to the fact as previously mentioned, we as an audience never really get to know him. Therefor he is never very appealing as a lead and gets boring fast.
4. SEMI SPOILER OF THE ENDING: open ending, so if you hate open ending you'll hate this show.
5. Underdeveloped antagonist. Could've done way more with the antagonist, feels boring and not as scary as the antagonist could've been built up to be. This point goes a little into point 1.
PERSONAL THOUGHTS:
loved the beginning and made me interested, but then after the beginning it felt a little slow and kinda boring. Even following the main lead was boring and also just the story line got so confusing, it felt to short and like everything happened to fast. The female lead was my personnel favorite because she was bad ass. Ending for me personally was underwhelming and didn't really hit in the so called "moral dilemma" the way the show wanted it to. Probably wont rematch since it felt so in cohesive, But loved the premise honestly, like totally something id enjoy, though a cooler main character would've been better. Lastly the pacing was 80% of why i disliked this, give it more episodes and i feel that'd be so much better.
