DEAD PEOPLE ON A VILLAGE

Surprisingly this is a good drama that I can recommend to anyone. A village of dead people who're still undiscovered their dead bodies. Some of them leaving the village spiritually within days but some were longer than 27 years as no one hadn't find their bodies in physical world, their souls still stuck in this village. Like Thomas, the leader of village who might have been there for over 100 years. An old man with young body of 22 years, the age when he died. He opened a cafe where everyone gather and visit, there's a special room when new undiscovered (bodies) came and regroup with the rest of them. Kim Wook who happened to run into this village thought a bit weird, he met a young boy that cried for his mother, he thought these village people kidnap this boy - he promised to find his mom. After called in the police and show them where the boy was, they couldn't see the village nor the boy, determined he's a lunatic.

After being rescued by Jang Joon-Ho the night before, he came back to him to find answer. He explained and started to understand that he could see spirits of dead people while other people didn't see them. With his realization, we wanted the fullfill his promise to the little boy to find his mother and succeeded, by doing that he'd discovered the malice of crime done. The boy saw his mother with happiness and his spirit evaporated. Since then, he determined to help every single spirit in the village would be found their dead bodies so their spirit move on. His friendship with Jang Joon-Ho who's initially been done that expand their investigations by searching and finding evidence to send criminals into jail and where to find victim's bodies. While Jang Joon-Ho had to find his own missing daughter, Kim Wook had also missing mother - which he found her as one of the dead villager.

Three people died on accidents, one end up in dead village Choi Yeo-Na who supposed to get married with Detective Shin within a month. Their love story that make this drama a bit emotional, the construction company involved with this many disappearances was about the inheritance of a sole will. A greedy man that killed everyone from a certain orphanage just to get their DNA and wipe out the possibly a heir grandchild of construction company. Kim Wook's mother as one of the victim was finally found so was everyone else. The ending was great, Kim Wook & Jang Joon-Ha at the end couldn't see the Deon village anymore as their tie to the village was being resolved. Thomas, after 100 years in dead village, his body finally was found and he's gone too to heaven. Great drama, unique story, great acting from Lead & supporting Actors.
