Honestly I think this drama could have used more of its potential. The story is not that uncommon, but it is not bad either. It is the typical school bully/secret/teacher-corruption thing that we have seen this year quite often but it has a nice developed amount of characters and we do have a unique main actor as well. So lots of plus points. But the story felt a little too....unshocking. Something was missing that would make this drama be something one would think back to and always wonder what will happen next. Also the ending....very sudden change of events. Still all in all it is not a bad drama, great characters, nice story: all in all a 6/10
This drama was quite the interesting change of good - to great - to good
We have some great actors, great characters and development and a quite unique storyline. However I do think they could have done the beginning and ending better. The climax was very well done, which is rare, normally a drama has a great beginning and a quite well done ending but lacks in the climax. However Justice was the opposite we have an alright beginning, a great climax but a quite loose ending. I was quite confused with how they let everything end, there were a lot of open questions.
Non the less it was well done, amazing cinematographic and great background music. If the beginning and the ending hadn't be so unfulfilling I would have given it a 10/10 but due to that I have to say it is a 7/10.
is this recommendable? hmmmm I'm currently watching something right now and looking forward on this any thoughts?
I say yes. The first 2 episodes gave it a different vibe than it became. The main protagonist seemed like the typical lawyer we se often in kdramas, but he turns out to be quite a nice twisted version. Nana, who plays the female lead, is doing a remarkable job as a strong female lead and our bad guys, oh they are wonderfully twisted. In my opinion the true gems of this show. I recommend it to you if you enjoy deeper dramas, that are less on the action but more on the interaction and the twisted ness. Its a great thriller. I would recommend it
you know I do think this should have been the main romance story and not the 2nd lead one.....I find our main…
You have some great instincts then. I did not know it would be him, I did have a feeling he might be but it just didnt fit with his appearance and the whole chemistry between them seemed more on a friendship-level than a romance one. I still dont get the chemistry-romance feeling of them but oh well. I do feel that comes better through with the few flashbacks we had with her and the general.
I thought so too. Wise words. :) I loved all characters and how all performed. Great plot and great acting!
oh yes the acting! it was fantastic. Our 3 mains and our supporting actors had a great chemistry and worked wonderfully together. Well done pick of the producers
How do you describe such a brilliant drama as Watcher? ....There are literally no words.
The music, the story and most of all these absolute amazing, deep, characters! This is out of the norm amazing. Absolute masterpiece of a thriller drama! I was watching it weekly and after each episode it kept me holding my breath and guessing. I have never experienced anything like this. An absolute masterpiece of masterpieces. We have such deep, twisted characters that make you doubt every second. And this keeps up till the last second. The story ends for a potential season 2 although I don't think we will get one, and I am absolutely fine with this too. It is the perfect ending for a perfect drama Its a 10/10 with tons of plus at the ending
you know I do think this should have been the main romance story and not the 2nd lead one.....I find our main…
you speak my mind ! Yes I absolutely think you are right this drama should have decided right away on which love story to lay focus on instead of doing a mix between both.
HOLY MOLY the “second lead syndrome” got me messed up in episode 13. I know technically the love interest…
you know I do think this should have been the main romance story and not the 2nd lead one.....I find our main romance completely unnecessary. And it somehow does not feel right for me. Whereas especially after episode 14 I truly do think we missed out on something potentially amazing if it had been given a chance ....
to be honest, you don't need any romance in this drama. The characters have such a deep complicated relationship with each other, a romance would make it fall flat. Maybe in the end we have a little bit of something but I truly doubt it. And I would not be bothered by it either ;) give it a try, you will see, the drama is so good, that sometimes you dont need romance at all ;)
My only complaint is NaNa's underwhelming performance. I wish she would focus on altering her tone of voice at…
you think so ? Im absolutely in love with her voice and acting. She is so refreshing compared to other actresses XD its truly funny how different tastes can be
Absolute amazing screenwriting when it comes to Watcher. This is like something so rare to come by, I am dearly looking forward what other future screenplays he will create.
honestly, even after episode 10, and some things are slowly becoming clearer, they made me doubt everyone and everything so much, that I still don't believe any glue they have given so far. absolute amazing drama!
The title and the summary make it sound like it got inspired by Jean Paul Sartre's play "No Exit", also known as "Hell is other people". Probably is. Its sounding way too similar. Bookmarked :)
I must say I wasn't really impressed when I watched the first episode but boy I am starting to get hooked ...…
same here, I did not have a lot of expectations after the first 2 episodes but now I am absolutely hooked. And its gets better and better. This is truly turning into a gem .
it was alright. Cinematographic- wise it was very well done, characters blossomed from first to 2nd season, the case was well though through, + we have an open ending that gives it a little more curiosity for a potential season 3. But personally for me something was lacking. The drama gripped me in the beginning but I found myself slowly getting less and less curious where this will all go to. Due to this I will give it a 6,5/10.
I have interest in this drama.. but i just wanna know, is the appearance of the ghost scary? or somewhat disgusting..something…
hmm they show gore and some have open wounds, but I would not say I'm scared of them. Its just a nice and well done portrayal. Give it a try ;) You will see ghosts right at the first episode.
the trauma suffered by some characters is affecting them not only psychologically but also physically causing…
Both are realistic. When you work in areas where traumatic things have to be told to people you often are confronted with very different reactions. Some people act out and some become very quiet and unemotional, you could say even cold.
Watcher is picking up many different ways of how someone can work through something. Thats truly something unique and absolutely a joy to see :)
