This drama should come with mental health trigger warning

What I like about this drama is the journey that I experienced watching from eps 1-14. We learn about how to not lose hope when we are facing with obstacles in life. How each of characters grow to became better person with each others help. The friendship they had is endearing through their ups and downs. Until suddenly came two last episodes with major heartbreak and betrayal.

I disliked how the writer seemed to dead set on making the ML relationship ends at any cost. The story is heading towards destruction of character building the ML build through out the previous 14 episodes. I personally don't mind a sad ending since it obviously a major hint from early episodes, but not that way. The ending has caused personal trauma that 3 weeks seems not yet able to forgo my heartache.

I felt betrayed by the writer. How could she made a potentially classic drama in the making to become one with depressed ending? A character with strong personality to be the first to run when facing the first, albeit major, obstacle in their relationship? Yet still cling onto the feeling she obviously still has after years passed? Even after 20 years, she looks miserable. No friends around, no loving husband.

In the world that is currently on depressed mode, drama is an escape and a thing that could help us to keep sane. Unfortunately, this drama fails to help me so. This is still a good drama, I would still recommend to watch it until episode 13-14. If you decided to do it, please proceed with caution. I hope you will have better experience than I do.

The story itself is promising. This is supposed to be my cup of the since I love zombie drama. With the hype and stellar reviews, it didn't live up to my expectation. I can even say wth with the praises? it started well but fell flat at the end. The casts.. Han Hyo Joo's acting is not my favorite and also she is supposed to be bad ass. But when she and Park Hyung Sik's character need to be strict, they went soft. Hence, so much unnecessary problems arose. At the end almost the rest of the cast just went cuckoo (for wealth, for power, etc.) and this is seems like lazy writing and an easy way out to me. The problem is so serious, yet, just days after the government applied the Martial Law, the outside world immediately resumes normal activities like no one bites each other before without proper explanation. How can you sure you already contained all the infected, and not assuming there are still infected to pretends to be normal lurking in the shadows? Even during covid, we are still in at least two weeks lockdown. When the armies catching the crazies from Building 101, the supposed to be infected from Next after they supposed to be dead, act like they are not having the urge to drink blood from healthy people while at the beginning, people got infected way easier and could going crazy almost immediately. However, it is quite entertaining if you can forgo all those things, thus I gave it 8.5
