If you like doramas, zombies and N.flying... then this mini drama is right for you
Now I confess, I was tempted to follow this one while it was ongoing, yet I waited until it was completed and binge watched it yesterday, mainly because Jaehyun from N.flying is part of the cast and I was curious to his character and performance in here.
However not only was I surrendered by his character, Minjun, but also for the characters Hibiki and Todoroki and of course the good old infamous Dr. Shuto. The actors did a remarkable job with their characters, but I feel like these ones stand out for their personal vendettas and goals along the episodes.
The world as we know it entered in an Apocalyptic Breakdown after an out of control virus is spread across mankind, enabling a sick transformation, and only a small group of survivors and a security organization are doing everything they can to survive with their own beliefs. We can say this is somehow similar to the whole Walking Dead because of the theme itself, and for those who are expecting something out of Train to Busan, than this sadly isn't it.
But still it's not that bad, although the first half is definitely better.
The second half is focused more into the hopeless love story, and all the illusions made by pre-fabricated lies...
Still, I really enjoyed watching it, and despite episode 7 being the saddest in my own personal opinion, it was in a way necessary for the developing of the plot and what fostered the rol of actions and decisions made by the characters from then on.
The OST once again, not quite memorable but it works nicely on the scenes and it's well displayed for emotional value.
The dorama ends how it ends, but worry not! Because....
The sequel has started already and seems just as promising as this if not even more, so if you made it this far be sure to follow ;)
