The drama wasn't bad. The constant push and pull was a bit draggy buuut Hiramasa and Mikuri are both very human characters with a lot of emotional baggage so it was satisfying to see their relationship grow. Even if felt like every step forward was met with two steps back.
The comedic aspect was really well-done. I loved Mikuri's crazy but elaborate and adorable daydreams and Hiramasa's neurotic, realistic Sheldon Cooper-like quirks. Both Yui Aragaki and Gen Hoshino did a great job. I watched this drama after MIU404 mostly bc Gen was in it but I was impressed by Yui (this was my first drama of hers). Both of them embodied their characters really well and honestly made them way cuter than I'd probably find Mikuri and Hiramasa in real life.
All the side characters were well acted and had some depth to them. Their own romantic stories were engaging on their own right. I really liked how the drama raised the issue of the expectations surrounding "women's work" and the invisible, unpaid labour of housewives, which is very relevant in Asian countries. 8.5/10 from me.
The ending song has no right being that much of a bop! It's so infectious and fun, I never skipped it at the end of every episode and I sometimes wanted to dance along with them. No wonder it went viral in Japan when the drama was airing.
This was such a good drama!* More twists and turns than a winding mountain road. I'll be upfront, apart from Aokbab who was the FL and the actress who portrayed Mo, everyone's acting was kinda wooden but the story really makes up for it.
It's really well written and engaging, once you start watching, you WILL binge it. ** There are a lot of clever callbacks and foreshadowing in the earlier episodes which I didn't even realize until the climax; which is the mark of a well thought out plot. The ending was deeply satisfying and fun even though they left it open enough for a second season. Also, special shoutout to Iya and Mo, who were clever, badass, assertive female characters that you usually don't see in crime dramas. Also, @XingBack in her review mentioned "cheap" production values but that's not really true, aside from a couple of obvious CGI moments.
Since I'm currently watching Bad Genius: The Series rn and dropped the Thai remake of Tunnel, this is technically the only Thai drama that I have completed and watched in it's entirety so the bar for any other Thai drama I watch is going to be very high lol. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who likes crime, mystery, suspense genres. 9.3/10.
* This drama also tackles a lot of dark topics, such as sexual assault and child abuse, so take that into consideration. ** Do not binge if you have work the next day. Me and my entire family were so captivated we ended up binging the whole thing and finished at like 1am. There was hell to pay the next morning. Do not advise.
There's some parts of the story that I don't understand.How is the reporter related to the win's mom and her woman's…
It is implied that both political parties want to use the island for their illegal activities. The reporter, as seen by the photo with the politician's secretary, is working with a political party that's against the headman and his political backers. The principal and Yok's mom are working with her.
And no, I don't think the drama is saying all men are trash. It's saying all humans are trash. I mean, the women are either flawed or outright evil themselves.
And yeah, dude, this drama definitely needs a second season. That was one of the most open endings ever, even if it was satisfying.
I know I felt bad for her maybe in world C we dont know who DW is with either LJM or SK
In World C maybe DW and SK get their happy ending from the start and are in a loving, healthy relationship while Jung-min found someone else who loves her very much :)
Ive heard they had to shortened bec of pandemia but it was a 16 ep drama originally....ending was good I would…
Yeah, I heard the same thing but other people say that it was always supposed to be 12 episodes; I feel like maybe 14 episodes would have been perfect - more time to develop everything but too little time for the plot to be draggy.
Poor Lee Jung-min. In one world, she lost two of her best friends and in another, the love of her life. Hope there's a world in the multiverse where she gets her own happy ending.
I'm really going to miss looking forward to watching this drama every week. The ending felt a little bit rushed and the parallel worlds concept could have been explored a bit more. Still, I'm satisfied with the bittersweet ending our two leads got and the fact that justice was served to atleast one of the perpetrators.
Finally was able to watch all available episodes and honestly this is really good! Not as good as the movie yet…
Grace and Pat were awful in the movie but they're somehow worse here. I can empathize with what Grace is going through to some degree but Pat is a straight yikes.
I like how the feelings between Lin and Bank are a bit more explicit. That and the fact that drama!Bank seems like a genuinely good but lonely guy makes me feel so bad for him when he figures what Lin is doing.
