I watched 4 episodes and I'm bored. it's trying to hard to be like A Korean Odyssey which was amazing. I have…
I LOVED a Korean Odyssey. I also love this series Black. I feel like if you similar to me, you may enjoy it. The mythology is pretty cool in Black. I do feel like the love story in Korean Odyssey is Waaaaaay better, but I also feel like Black is NOT meant to be a love story whereas in Korean Odyssey it was the main focus....the romance is just a little tossed in. in black. Watch it more for the interesting ride that it is as a horror/supernatural thriller....picks up speed like in ep 6/7/8.....one of those....... :)
do I have to have watched until we meet again to enjoy/understand the story?
I never did and I am having no problem following this series. (I can't watch anything with graphic suicide themes). I really am loving this series so far.
my only complaint about this series is the side couples (surprisingly lmao), I don’t mind deanpharm or pruekmanow…
I feel like they throw these side characters at us like they fishing for which ones we want a series for next :D Like we are all a part of some giant collective experiment :D
You could say it was a good ending but I found it to be one of the poorest endings I’ve ever seen. The make…
This is why you just ignore the last 6 to 8 min of the last ep. It was an unnecessary 'added ending'......totally not needed. The ending was fine without it ;)
Is there romance romance or just romance? Also do one of them die for the other? And is it a happy ending? (Idk…
I would say light romance maybe. This is a supernatural horror/thriller, not a ROM-COM, so I didn't expect strong romance or anything. It is about another being using a dead human's body to interact with the living world to solve a problem he has to deal with. It is dark humor and quirky/fun......action/thriller/horror elements. :D
The "real" Moo Gang who died in episode 2 we were never told what happened to him after he was taken away and…
Since it is a horror.....I KNEW we had to let him go. His body was what was needed for the story....for the Grim Reaper to use to navigate/interact in the living world. Sadly, the story wasn't about his after-life. It gave good angst.
It is a horror/drama/supernatural thriller.....so has a complicated ending that matters somewhat on viewer interpretation (meaning you and I may each perceive of it a little differently).
I guess.....what do you mean by a 'happy' vs 'sad' ending in this type of story? What does that mean for you? Having the main mystery solved or having your mains not die or having justice served or redemption found.....?
In a RomCom for example, you might expect a happy ending to be the two mains ending up together. But in a horror/drama/thriller.......a happy ending....?.....it is complicated ;)
I loved Kim Tae Woo (his was a 'guest role'....but an important one; and he was so PERFECT); one of my fav actors to watch! Also loved Lee El in her side character role; she impressed me. Kim Won Hae is always fun to watch also.....he cracks me up!
Felt like watching an anime but with added Korean horror/creepiness/grossness. lol I loved the dark humor and the mythology of the world with all the interesting side characters (some great actors here!). Lots of mystery and action... a splash of romance. The story feels a little all over the place and slow at times, but it is all interconnected: there is a main thread to follow with nice web of a story that you are thrown into and gotta figure it out on your own. I love this puzzle feel. I did watch it a second time after knowing the ending, and damn, did they toss out important hints even at the beginning that I had missed. Loved that the writing did have that cleverness. My only advice is to ignore the last 6 or 8 min of the last ep.... it was totally confusing/weird and NOT necessary in the least. The ending was fine without that weird 'added ending'. This is a horror/drama/thriller (not a ROM-COM) ...so I expect a shocking and semi-open-to-interpretation ending anyway....where it is left up to the viewer on how it plays out :D I loved it!
Would have been great without Go Ah Ra……that’s all I have to say. Will not be watching anything else with…
I had wondered about that. Maybe the actress was pregnant and they tried to hide it with all the layered clothing..... but it hard to hide a puffier face :) I've seen other series where they had to do this for actresses..... even changing camera angles can hide a lot. Idk.
Imma be honest. In first ep, I thought the ML (before he become the 'Black' character) was MORE annoying than the FL. :D :D :D :D
