JANG WONYOUNG
A thriller that will leave you with overwhelming questions after each episode...
At first, I was hesitant to watch this as I thought this would be cringy even though I thought the trailer was amazing...However I was wrong, this show is amazing. It may be a bit graphic to some people however it really adds to the story and makes the story to not feel "kid like". Each episode feels like a way of telling us secretly who could've killed Ok Chang-Mi. However it also tricks us with who it might be since there's a lot of people Ok Chang-Mi Investigates. I think that it is important for a thriller show to not easily tell us who it is by the first episode or counting episode, showing us clues and even tricking us can really put us into our seats and just wonder, who is the killer... Each episode unveils more information but in a low-key way for us to figure out and make a our own hypothesis on who it could be.
I think this a rating of 9 really fits this drama. Of course it can't be a 10 since every drama has something a watcher may not like or were feeling iffy about.
There's not much I can say about the music as I don't remember none except one that I like that they always put in the background or at the ending.
Overall this was well done and I definitely recommend to watch. Another fun note, I feel like Disney is getting darker and darker with their shows, and I love it.

Past tense relationship saved the show
I have really enjoyed this show.It talks about ones hurt and how it could implement everyone who loves that person to be severely sad.
The casting is pretty good except the new generation cast felt very "school theater/drama class" esc.
It's not even about overdoing it, all of them just were doing the bare minimum and that made that generation cast
look very weak. even though the cast that had the past tense relationship had more experience. most of their first works were easy to identify their characters in other dramas. easy meaning as in you can actually relate or feel that character.
what i didn't like:
honestly they should've kept it as the past relationship only. the newer didn't really do anything major. it was just a hit or miss with the newer kids. towards the last episodes their story was okay, they just made the drama look light when its supposed to be very melodramatic with it being sad. the drama would go to a hamin scene with a very sad topic and then it would go towards jaemin or either of the new kids, with a happy vibe. it just didn't fit.
What i didnt understand, it was kinda random that jaemins word made hamin kill himself. like what?????
however i really do enjoy watching this. but because the newer kids do get annoying, i dont think ill rewatch. hope seo ji hoon will have an actual main character. i know he has a new one coming soon but hes not the first main.. so i wish he gets one after that. ill be waiting.

Underwhelming but still watchable.
To be honest, the show isn't even bad. However the show has too many plot holes and too many frustrating bits with how the characters are not thinking smart. Yes they may have been written as not smart however, a person with an average IQ would definitely think better than how the actions are portrayed in the show.The fighting is pretty mediocre and can be boring. You'd think if you had a immortal body you would train yourself.
The song is alright, I liked how they changed versions even though it probably is just one version that has different parts in the song. However it does really get annoying. I understand it's for the plot, but I don't know. To me the song connect situation doesn't make sense at all.
The time skip is super weird. I either forgot how long was the time skip mentioned or it was never mention properly. Like when did that thing happened?
The acting was fine, not the best but not bad at all. It was mostly neutral in the entire time of the show.
I still do not understand how they get the immortal body.. I payed attention the entire time and still didn't know. Only knew the situation between the male leads. Can someone please comment down the answer.
The cgi was great. One of the reasons I remained to watch. I knew the cgi was going to be good just from trailer.
uh.... The sex scene... I do like thirsty scenes however, it was placed seriously at the wrong time. Like they talking about the suspect and then boom, sex scene in front of the screen.
Overall: Too messy, can be enjoyable, many plot holes, no smart decisions, kind of mediocre. 7.0 or 7.5 fits this rating.

Hmm...
Looks very promising. i'm just hoping it won't be as draggy once were in the middle of the show's episodes.So far i'm pretty impressed with shin hye's acting, I think she improved; She's been getting so much hate for her acting, even though she's not even bad. I would just say she has a style to her acting. And hyung sik is always a cute puppy.
Although his character is giving me nothing at the moment, i'm hoping to see more of the characters' real personality.
cause i feel like no one is truly carefree. either way i'm ecstatic to see where this goes!
Also Woohoo, my first review after a year!!!!
