Rewatch Value 6.0

Popcorn Drama. Nothing more, nothing less.

I highly debated rating this series 6.0 because the story was a mess from beginning to end and the chemistry just wasn't there for me. Could Yoon and Ton be anymore awkward/uncomfortable together? And man both the kissing scenes and the NC scenes were laughable. But I digress. Ultimately I went with a 6.5 because I realized as much as the story made me scratch my head many many times I didn't hate it as much as I originally thought I would. I found something funny in every episode while that was intentional or not, I had a fun time watching. Unlike Enchante,(the only other series I've rated 6.5) I didn't find the story dreary or any of the characters unlikable. I pretty much enjoyed all of them, esp if I saw them as parodies. The characters often didn't make sense but I could understand as long as I still found the situation funny, which I did. The cast did the best they could even if I felt all of them could have done better: Yoon: cough.

There were times I felt like I was watching a Mexican Telenovela which again ramped UN up in the entertainment value. And that's why I call this a popcorn drama. It's mindless entertainment set to make people have a good time, forget troubles and despite it's flaws Unforgotten Night did that. I'm gonna miss this chaos for that reason. Now what am I gonna watch to laugh at? And enjoy? I guess time will tell.

I hope Unforgoten Night serves as a sample of what not to do in a series, while not as bad as Check Out it could have been so much better. The production really dropped the ball on this one.
