This is so crazy!

This is analysis with copyright Instagram @cinedoramas


As I mentioned above, Search had everything to have a little more history in addition to its 10 episodes.

In addition, the plot was not there these things, but in my view was too rushed.

Throughout the plot I had a few moments when I didn't understand much of the context of the scene in specific episodes; Three and six. (I won't say why, because this is not the spoiler club, this is just an analysis).

- In short, Search presents a story with good suspense (say in passing, it gets to be funny how it stands out in this genre, being that it was more comical than everything), military context and without novels. The set design, the techniques of filming and character development are good.

Overall, there were some mistakes: The weak script, stories that were told in the first 3 episodes, but that did not develop, the events that were released, and cuts /jumps in time that made those who watch, stop and try to understand what was happening.

(Ps: In my view, in the first episodes it became evident that I WOULD HAVE MAYBE a novel, but the same did not occur).

That is, watch the kdrama already aware that there are no novels.

- In the first episode, Search arrested me. Watching the night a drama that is highlighted as 'mystery, suspense and terror', did not scare me at any point.

Everything was going well, until episode 3 was a little confused... Episode 4, I felt that they tried to repair* the error of the previous episode.

And then this drama only got me back in episode 8.

That is, overall it was too DULL to follow this drama.

There's not much to comment on, because as it only has 10 episodes, I can give without wanting many spoilers, so I'll stop here.

*Analyzing the characters*
Yong Dong Jin:

Dong Jin introduces himself to the public, as a military and dog trainer, who counts the days for his dismissal. His personality was the most attention-shaded to me: considerably he does not know how to 'listen to his superiors', that is, 'an order'.

- Fact: There's a hole in his and Son Ye Rim's story, both of which seemed to have had some relationship in the past, but that to which, we'll never know what really happened. That is, they presented the probable relationship of both, but simply did not develop it.

Son Ye Rim:
The most interesting female character the plot tries to build. His cold answers and crossed glances at Yong Dong Jin made it clear that some sort of romance could come later... It was just achismo even!

Song Min Gyu:
Let's go to the part that held me the most in the plot... Yes, the main character who is a villain and very proud. What makes Search a bit good, was to see the unfolding of this. It wasn't bad or something chopped, on the contrary, it made me want to watch the next episode.

Min Gyu introduces herself to the viewer in an authoritarian, meek, totally proud way and who thinks he is superior to his colleagues. It is the typical character who always seeks the easy way, only it is not the right one.

- Perception and Critic:

Many ideas, a lot of time in the air and two writers who tried to put together both stories, but who in the end knew how to have the right attention and organization. I don't have to come here and talk about how a beginning, middle and end story should be made, right?

What becomes boring, is that Search had everything to become a good drama, but that unfortunately lacked organization and listing of the facts.

Back in the past and then coming and going to the present, was one of the points I hated the most. The story becomes shallow, weak and fragile.

Search has more room for a movie than a drama.

To be honest, it was exactly this perception I had when I finished watching it.
