Knight Fall
Somewhere out there...
A great start : We get to see human greed at its finest but the pacing midway went downhill for me
P.S. This series is for viewers who are not uncomfortable with graphic scenes such as violence etc. because this drama's plot is driven by human and animal experimentation and abuse. Basically, this serves as a warning.
The drama kicks off with a great start as it actually leaves the viewers an impression as well as a lot of questions to be solved as the viewers dive deeper into the series. We get to see a great production as well as a solid cast. The acting, OSTs and effects used right at the bat catches the viewers / audiences attention. The hype for the 1st episode is intense and truly, worthy. Moreover, the OSTs used are also meaningful and emotional most especially when you read the lyrics of the OSTs because it portrays the characters' inner struggles.
I'm also glad that SK is actually producing more dramas that aren't just mainly oriented for the audience who are fond of Romantic Comedies so L.U.C.A. gets another plus point. Moreover, the last time viewers were blessed with a Sci-fi focused series was on 2018 when "Circle : Two connected worlds was released" and that show started and ended off pretty well so if you haven't yet watched that series, I highly recommend you to check it out because it has a lost of twists and it is also one of the most underated SK series.
Since L.U.C.A. is also a unique series because of its genre and plot (Sci-fi, Action, Mystery, Thriller, Suspense), it is advisable that you don't watch this as a passing because there are a lot of mysteries to ponder.
The pacing at the beginning of the story is also done well but here's where the series starts to go downhill.
In the middle of the series, there's actually a point where the characters suddenly developed a romantic relationship and I actually find it to be out of character because at the first episodes, we see them as friends then boom, they got together really fast. We didn't get to see much progress.
Furthermore, you may actually start to question at the middle of the series on where it was going. Like the characters are not even consistent and some parts of the series might bore / disappoint you.
Lastly, the series ends off with a depressing note as well as a cliff hanger. I will not expound this further in order to not give a spoiler but yeahhh.. *sigh*
In conclusion, this series deserves an applause for its unique take based on Charles Darwin's theory of Evolution. Its plot is more oriented on human experimentation towards human evolution and its Genre will immediately catch the attention of the viewers. There are Cons for this series because of some plot and character inconsistencies but if you're interested in a series which will make you ponder a lot, you can add this on your watch list. I cannot guarantee that this is a 100% great series but it's still an entertaining watch despite of its Cons... ;)
