DARK DEEP DIVE WAY FURTHER FROM S1
I was really not expecting this sequel to just switch things up in such a morbid way. While the s1 had us focusing mainly on the missing mother and the Yoo Han which are direct, this one is both confusing and intriguing because it covers every horizon it sees. I never expected some shady mono community where his mother joined in. I was not really expecting the disturbing surgery that turned out to be just an experiment by a con artist, hallucinogenic candies among others. I just had a lot on my hands, I can't really handle so much. The plot just threw me directly to what should I be witnessing, Yoo Han being kidnapped and his long endeavor of finding his long lost mother. I wasn't prepared for the edgy start of this season. The plot is somehow cohesive to s1 when it's about his journey of finding his mother. It's much more darker because there were really blood revealing his mother's death. The new things being introduced in the eps are too fast for me to pick up. It was like, hold up I can't remember faces that well.
What I love about this series is the shady lore or darker spin of the plot making it not about just two characters loving each other leaving his mother for a moment. I was really glued about the things happening around here. I love Hyuk here, both adorable and uplifting even when the situations gets crappy. I love how he stood his ground portraying his character damn well not overpowering anyone in the series. He's easily likeable.
The OST is good.
Overall this is such a risk taker for a sequel and it worked. Though I don't like the bloody or disturbing scenes here, I commend how the sequel is done plus there is also a cliffhanger hinting s3. Even if it plans to have s3, I still watch it to know how it'll turn out. Most likely it'll be a love triangle since his mom died already. I cannot hate it, though this was not a prefect spin-off I still like it (better than s1 I guess).
