Something is so not right in this series. Did the writers forget the first Together With Me? It makes no sense that Knock's family is the more accepting while Korn's not the case.
Knock had a girlfriend before. It would have make more sense that his family is less accepting since they knew he had a girlfriend before. Korn on the other hand had boyfriend before. He has a sister who knows he is gay. And he has a mother on the firsts series who kept on inviting Knock over for food. Am I missing something??
I don't know what made this so appealing to a lot of people; being highly rated/recommended. I just finished the whole series and it feels like a pretty standard drama. Sure, the acting is good, but the story is nothing unique. It was rather slow paced, esp for a thriller series. And my interest or me looking forward to the next episode was not really that intense - it is more like, I just want to know and see how the series ended; there seems to be lacking of redemption or wins in the part of protagonists.
How different is Jung Hae In's character in this series to the one in Something In the Rain. I would regret watching this if he is almost the same one, esp I just finished watching SITR.
I feel sympathetic to the male lead all throughout the show. He was surrounded by piece of shit people. The biggest piece of shit is his girlfriend. I have no sympathy to her at all. Given the situation she was in at work, she would have more understanding of what her boyfriend is going through. Jong-Woo could have been saved, had he and the officer ended up together halfway through the show - but of course, this is not a romance show.
But the main point in here is that, could he be saved at all? Was his military PTSD brought back repressed feelings/emotions and just get aggravated by the situation in the residence? It makes you wonder if the Moon Jo was able to smell that on Jong Woo - and that made him special.
Two episodes in, I actually expected Jong Woo to become a killer. I watched way too much of this genre to know exactly that's the ending. Although, I like the twist at the end. Overall, I did not want that to be Jong Woo's ending. He just became the piece of shit like everybody else he interacted in the show. It just sad, and depressing. No redemption on good, and rather evil actually won.
Another thing going through my head while watching this show is that - everything is on Jong Woo's head and he was writing a book. But of course, that is not the case. LOL. I wished that was the twist of the twist at the end, wherein, everything actually did not happened - and it's all just a story in the book. Then you end with a scene where Jong Woo was signing a book for Moon Jo.
Anyway, I feel bad for Seok Yoon. His cute face does not deserve to be slaughtered.
He cannot be non-existent, because Moon-Jo interacted with other characters like the officer, and he actually have a clinic, who of course, have a lot of clients. Jung Woo is also not a dentist to be able to pull those teeth out easily and as perfect, which is in his wrist. Clearly too, it is made from many people, some of them before his arrival in the residence.
Took me a week to finish this, the storyline is good enough for me to be curious and hold my interest throughout the series. The first half is quite fast-paced, the revelation and action was really good. On the second half, it felt a bit dragging since they were playing the cat-and-mouse-game between the villain and the lead.
I enjoy the OST. Beautiful. It sets the atmosphere of the whole series.
I like the sci-fi element. I applaud them for making it plausible rather than some mumbo-jambo. But then again, since I'm a scientist, some of the stuff showing in the screen makes 0 sense, like how a chemical sample would have AGTC code in it.
As for the acting, I think the male lead did well enough. He fits the character. I remembered him as the younger brother of the female lead in My Love From the Stars. Eye candy enough lol. His characterization was consistent enough. I know that the male lead and female lead were dating and end up together, but it feels like the chemistry was a bit off in the show. I like how the female lead was a strong character, but at the end, she was like meh. She kept the male lead grounded and keeping his humanity, I guess that made her change the character mid-way. Anybody here bothered with how she was crying? Is it me or she was cross-eye? Applause to the main villain who was the President in Designated Survivor. He was damn gut wretching hatred. Same with the uncle and the vice director.
Favorite character was the genius scientist side-kick of the male lead. Damn he is uber cute. And also the counterpart of him in the villain side is the cute Lee Ji Hoon. They are just so good to look at. lol.
I guess this is enough blabbing without spoiling anything lol.
You just have to go through the first two episodes and once you get there, you will be hooked.

I LOVE IT.
I was just explaining that he cannot be non-existent.
Why are you so mad with my comment?

Am I the only one who is wondering if the serial killer dentist is actually gay and LIKE the male lead????
Most OMG moments
- Soo Hyun revealed herself as the kid saved by the main villain. I was like WTF. WTF. WTF.
Most Heartbreaking moment:
- When you knew that Hyun-Woo is a goner :(
The last few episodes, they really went out for a blood bath. They just have to kill everybody. Poor female lead.
And wtf was that ending?
