BEST DRAMA
Can I just say that I loved this drama just as much as I loved Extracurricular and I couldn't even bring myself to put it down. I had never heard of it, but my friend asked if I wanted to watch it with her because she had already watched it. And then we ended up binging the whole drama that day with no breaks in between each episode. I'm not a fan of horror—not because it's not interesting, but because I get scared very easily—and this drama was quite scary, but I loved it to bits.
My heart ached for Hyun Soo, but I love the way his character had developed—how he went from being alone and suicidal to fighting for his survival and having people by his side who he could trust and call his friends. It did take a bit of time to get there, considering the people around him refused to trust him at first due to Hyun Soo having a monster living and growing inside of him, but once they realized that Hyun Soo was on their side, they trusted him and fought alongside him.
Honestly, I actually thought the gangster or contract killer would be the first to be cursed because of how he made his first appearance—nonchalant and a dark gaze. I also thought he couldn't be trusted due to how he had a hostage at the start, but once I realized there was something up with the hostage, I began to understand. I also saw how he never harmed anyone else, and once he'd gotten rid of the murderer he'd kept hostage, it made way for a caring and soft-hearted man who fought to protect people and save double, or quadruple, the number of lives he'd taken. When he'd died, I was so heartbroken, but he'd died saving a life and being there for her during her last breath.
It also made me laugh—which I shouldn't have because there were people dying—that every couple that was building chemistry and could've ended up together... was incapable of dating because either one of them or both of them died. The director really said, "No romance for this :D."
But yes, this drama has my whole heart and now if you'll excuse me, I'll return to watching Sweet Home cast interviews and crying over them because I miss the drama already.
