I don't really like zombie dramas
I'm aware that zombie dramas will have their fanbase, so let me preface this by saying that I am not part of it.... Anyway, I thought this drama was entertaining enough, but not particularly interesting. Like it is interesting enough to entertain?
About the plot:
? Interesting at the start, I think the main point of this drama is just the action and gore so I'm not sure how I should rate this. I have to say the drama was very interesting in the beginning but lost traction slowly. Many many plot armours, like how do the main characters survive from the most ridiculous things? There's not much plot honestly, there's barely any progression throughout the series. It's just filled with action, gore and thrill. Oh yes, and the occasional (irrelevant) romance? I mean it's a school drama after all, so maybe it was added to lighten the mood a little. I do love the childhood friends stuff going on but ... Onjo randomly bringing in romance and boys like... THERE ARE ZOMBIES EVERYWHERE AND YOU JUST WANT TO TALK/THINK ABOUT YOUR STUPID ROMANCE?? There's a time and place for everything and the majority of the romantic scenes are useless af. Overall, I think this drama wasn't even meant to have much of a plot? (or at least I hope so, if not it's pretty much a bigass failure of a plot) If you just compile the parts of the drama with a plot, this wouldn't be a 12-episode series, it would be halved or something.
About the acting/cast:
The main casts are obviously school-aged kids but the others.. there are "kids" who are obviously adults like, no questions asked (even among the main casts' friend group). They look way too old to look the part o.o I'm sorry but On-jo is so freaking expressionless, I cannot fathom how she even got the part? There are side characters who are much better at acting.
About the music/OST:
Appropriate for the scenes.
Rewatch value:
As mentioned, I don't usually watch zombie stuff. I'm watching it to just... find out more about the drama.
