Hide': A Suspense Drama that Misses the Mark.
Before going to down, reminder - I'm a thriller/suspense genre lover.Despite its promising start and the attraction of thriller and suspense tags, 'Hide' ultimately falls short of delivering a gripping experience. While the initial episodes set the stage for a suspenseful ride, the predictable plot twists and lack of genuine surprises leave much to be desired. The recurring theme of cheating as a subplot feels overused and detracts from the overall suspenseful atmosphere the drama tries to create.
However, 'Hide' does have its strengths, notably in the stellar performances of its cast. Lee Bo Young shines in her portrayal of Na Moon Young, skillfully capturing the nuances of her character's various roles. Lee Chung Ah also impresses with her portrayal, adding depth to her character beyond mere stereotype.
Unfortunately, the inconsistent pacing and frustrating plot developments, such as Cha Sunge Jae's continuous escape from arrest despite being a known culprit, hinder the drama's ability to maintain suspense. While the cinematography and soundtrack are serviceable, they fail to elevate the viewing experience to a higher level.
The suspense thriller development in "Hide" falls short of expectations, failing to effectively cultivate doubt or intrigue among its characters. Instead of carefully crafting a narrative that keeps viewers guessing, the drama quickly reveals which characters are dubious or on the side of good by the fourth episode, robbing the storyline of its potential for genuine suspense.
Finally:
'Hide' may offer moments of enjoyment, particularly for fans of the Thriller/Suspense genre, but it ultimately fails to live up to its potential as a gripping thriller.
Good pick for Thriller lovers..

Great acting but not gripping enough characters.
Na Moon Young’s (Lee Bo Young) husband, Cha Sung Jae (Lee Moo Saeng), goes missing and discovered to have died in a horrible car crash, leaving problems to his family. The more Moon Young investigates to her husband's past, the more conflicting stories surface, leaving her unsure of whom to trustMixed thoughts on this drama. The first two episodes set up a good momentum; it was fast-paced and intriguing to find many suspicious characters. It’s hard to trust anyone besides Moon Young. It was nice to see Moon Young being a strong character who fights back with her smart and cheeky moves, that led towards few satisfying winning for her early on.
It was thrilling enough to watch until it wasn't. With more twists that lead to more questions than clear answers, I felt it's turning into a drag build up towards the endgame. I'm tired with the plot and I'm tired with everything that happens around the husband, and it really didn't help with him being coward and selfish. Had his characters been more captivating, I might be less bored. At this point, I just hope it ends with a clear conclusion.
