I didnt expect much from the actors to carry the same characteristics to the OG but damn they
proved me wrong. Each of the actors have caught on
to the BTS members details according to the webtoon. Really ecstatic and heartwarming. Really really nostalgic and
heartwarming. This drama is a thriller but a very sad and sorrowful one. Don't know if you can call this a thriller. Because it doesn't give you thrill rather anxiety. Every moment when something is going alright, I fear something might drastically make things worse. It is really heartbreaking. Every one the boys is ruined in their own ways. This series really plays with your heart and does it so well. This was quite an emotional drama. So many things were so crying worthy. It definitely is a depressing series. Them reuniting was only a little hope before everything collapsed. I have to say that the drama was very impactful with all the sadness making it for the viewers to keep watching for the good to come. Only for them to end it on the sea side again. There was no saving, no redemption, no vengeance. They did answered some questions but left many unanswered. The ending was meant to be hopeful but it felt empty. I would have liked it if they took the same plot from the save me webtoon instead they left it on an empty note for the viewers to figure out. The end had to be impactful but it left me empty wanting for more. All the while this final episode I was waiting for something good to happen. Kept looking at the watch time as they showed all the boys little segments and how the note had keywords written about them. But no solution. The keywords were the same what we all happened to know already. I know the part of salvation, they showed it in glimpses of how he contacted some of the boys like jeha and jooan and dogeon in his plan. The unknown guy was Hwan obviously. But the exemption, the good parts weren't shown. They were needed. As a BTS ARMY, I might figure out a few of the nuances in the series. But a regular watcher would not know whats even happening. Wasted potential of the original work, the excellent actors and everything.
The built up was great only to leave onto the viewers to figure out the happy ending.
Lastly shout out to all the actors, be it the boys or the parents or the Hwan's ahjussi, everyone has done a commendable job at their parts. Only for the little lacking end, its a shame it had a lot of potential to be a great series.
