Aladdin
2021 Best Survival K-Drama!
There are many survival K-Dramas in 2021. But, trust me. This one is the best in every aspect while the others are overhyped ones. If you are looking for the best survival drama, watch this! Never watch overhyped drama! Trust MDL's ratings more than Koran television's ratings.
I've always been a fan of survival K-dramas. I want to see how the plot goes and how the writers give problem solutions to the conflicts in the plot.
So, as always, I'll just give you the summary.
Pros:
- It gives you an eerie atmosphere in every episode. Less talk, more atmosphere!
- No cringey lovey-dovey romance! Both (male lead & female lead) are focusing more on surviving and helping others than having a blooming love relationship.
- The plot is easy to understand, but it still gives you puzzles. Who is who, who did this and that, who will die, etc.
- This drama has plenty of characters/villains but they are really easy to be remembered.
- No sex scenes. Safe to be watched together with family (not for kids)!
- THE FEMALE MAIN LEAD IS STRONG, COOL, HEROIC, BADASS, NO CRY BABY, AIN'T SCAREDY-CAT. The writer(s) did justice to the female main lead in this drama, unlike in other action K-dramas where females always are the ones who have to be protected by males. This is what makes me score 10/10 ratings on MDL. I'm a male btw. I'm starting being a fan of Han Hyojoo <3
- No jumpscares and not that scary. Heart-friendly.
- Top-tier character developments: A kind-hearted person can be evil and vice-versa because of life-hanging conditions.
- The plot hole is there but it's almost invisible. Thanks to the scary atmosphere and the character's actions. You won't have enough time to think about the hole. You will spend your time reading the plot flow and thinking which character is likely to be alive, where is the antagonist.
- The plot twist is not that big, but it's there to surprise you.
- It portrays the daily life of metropolitan Korean families (kinda).
- This drama won't waste your precious seconds. The plot is solid and won't make you bored. Unlike other dramas where the talking scenes take longer than they should be, Happiness put the talking scenes to the nice timing with a good proportion.
- and many more I forgot what to write. I'll add them once I remember.
Cons:
- Only 12 episodes and this is a big deal.
- Needs more OSTs.
I think these cons have something to do with sponsorship. If I don't see Samsung in a drama, I assume the drama doesn't get enough $$.
