Every time I check the comments, I see people immediately calling others "haters" just because they have a different opinion. And also this "I don’t understand why you think this drama is boring," and then they go on explaining how great it is, as if that should convince everyone. But everyone has their own unique perception. If someone noticed flaws in a drama that they pointed out for themselves, it doesn’t mean everyone has to think the same way. If the majority likes a drama, that doesn’t mean others can’t express a different opinion. This works both ways. Enjoy what you like, share your thoughts within reasonable limits, and respect different perspectives.
Confused endingWas she a ghost?as they saw dead body no head same name!
No. It was Yeongju's psyche that made her believe the woman was alive, even though she had actually died long ago. The voices she heard before were also part of this construction. Her mind created these illusions to maintain control over a reality she could no longer handle.
I tried watching this drama back in 2023, but I dropped it after the first episode. Now I decided to give it a second chance, but it still didn’t work out. Even though I’ve watched 7 episodes, I still find the execution bland despite the drama having such a great concept to explore.
The last scene that really pissed me off was when the female lead went to the professor and blamed him for everything — even though he had just found out the truth himself, hated his family, and the whole thing started long before he was even born. Why did she throw such a hysterical fit at him like he was the demon himself? She even smashed his car with a rock. That was probably the last straw for me when I tried to empathize with the characters.
It feels like the writers don’t know how to properly develop the plot and just throw in drama for the sake of drama.
imo, the makers should have either released all of it at once, or should have made the first two eps really strong.…
Yesss, after the first episodes, I dropped this drama, but my curiosity got the better of me, and I came back to give it another chance — and that was the best decision. Now it’s my favorite ongoing drama
Damn, the beginning is promising, but the further it goes, the weaker it gets... At first, the antagonist was well-developed, with his backstory and motivations – he's definitely the most interesting character here. But then the focus shifted to an overly drawn-out chase: everyone is trying to catch him but keeps failing, making the plot feel dull. I wish there was more attention to the psychology of the characters rather than an endless pursuit. The plot could have been better.
This "kiss" was just accident. He is not a kid even if he is s high school student. She is a teacher and probably…
I wrote this comment before this moment... If we talk about it now, it confuses me even more. A teacher goes to a student at night to treat him? And then this happens. The whole situation feels forced. I know this is one of the standard tropes in romantic Korean dramas, but in this case, it feels wrong because it crosses the boundaries between teacher and student. She perceives him as a schoolboy, and as long as that remains the case, any hints of romance seem unethical.
I feel uncomfortable with this romantic storyline. Yes, he is an adult man working undercover, but to her, he is still her student. I wish he had revealed his true identity to her earlier to avoid this strange dynamic, or that the romance had been left out entirely.
It was the ending of the drama. Ryeong was in prison (sentenced to 2 years), Eve was alive and well with her baby on Earth (didn’t go to space), and everyone was happily helping her with the child.
Even my dream was better than this ending. Why did they have to kill Eve 😭😭
I see that nothing has changed in the comments since my last visit… I avoided this section after a certain situation, which made even the mention of this drama trigger me, but finally (it seems) it has passed, so I want to share my impressions again.
"Newtopia" gives me emotional whiplash^^ The first episode intrigued me and I generally liked it, while the second one seemed boring and even made me feel uncomfortable due to the characters’ unreasonable actions and humor that didn’t seem funny to me. So, the third episode became the deciding one—after watching it, I realized that I would still continue.
I’ll admit, I was biased against this drama because its storytelling style is different from what I’m used to. But over time, I accepted it as it is: a series that you can watch to relax, without turning on your brain and overanalyzing the characters' illogical actions.
I liked the musical accompaniment—it gives me chills. As for the actors, in my opinion, they all fit their roles, and I have no complaints about their acting. Portraying comedic characters with exaggerated scenes is quite difficult, and in my view, they managed to do it well.
I wouldn’t call this drama a masterpiece, but I also wouldn’t say it’s bad as it seemed to me after episode 2. It’s something in between, but it still sparks my curiosity, probably due to its non-standard approach, so I want to find out what happens next.
I'm not a fan of romantic dramas, but this one has captivated me. I've learned to appreciate such a slow pace in dramas and savor every minute of it. And the ML appeals to me with his charismatic mind.
Tomorrow is the final episode. Time has flown by so fast 😭😭 This drama will stay with me forever. These past two months have been special because of it. I'm grateful to everyone who put effort into making it
