Adamas

Can only say wow as only saw ep1 but already story has me thinking which in a mystery is what you want. Good recognised actors two sadly never remember names easy as I'm British not as easy as say Tom etc.

Although the twin had different styles with different clothing to make them distinguishable enough but I found it a little tiring to keep making a conscious effort to differentiate between the two. Maybe throwing on some glasses would help or I'm just too lazy. The first episode felt too tame and didn't show enough gripping elements. That scene in the forest at the beginning of episode 2 really sat the overall tone of the drama moving forward. At that point, it was obvious it's going to be the type of show that would waste time on nonsense, fail to deliver the information and dance around aimlessly. I though I would give them the benefit of the doubt; they might deliver on that with clever plays but they never did. Not even the twins element was utilized enough. After about 4 episodes, the drama lost most, if not all, of its engaging elements. The mystery turned into a snoozefest. This was beyond what's considered a slow burner. It took 11 long episodes for something noteworthy to happen. The ending was underwhelming after all that wait and they had the audacity to set up some teasers for possible continuation.

South Korean series go from strength to strength, for the most part and Adamas is shaping up to be yet another success.

Intelligently written, with well rendered characters and a complex crime thriller plot, Adamas is instantly engaging. Its different enough too, to represent a departure from other series, in a similar vein.

Like a lot of Korean series, you really need to pay attention, as the plot and sub plots are complex and multi layered. Depending on how you approach this, that fact can be a blessing or a curse.

That said, given the poorly written, often simplistic, ideologue ridden nonsense, coming out of the West, I personally find this kind of intellectually engaging, thoughtful entertainment, a welcome respite.

An Eastern gem in the making.

8/10.

This is perfect drama with good build up for events ..and ji sung took my herat with his performence ..he is 100/10.

Ha wooshin is so smart and so hyun is so brave woth great difference between this two identical twins ..and is so amazing job of ji sung oppa.

Adamas is an average kdrama, it isn't that great. Im currently on the 10th ep and the story feels so dragged and boring and the scenes are quite long. The story itself isn't that appealing to the audience, and the acting of the mc is amazing but I can't say the same for other actors. U will surely get bored and would want to quit.

Some of the characters were dumb and it felt like only the twins have brain and can actually come up with good strategies. U would see the so called smart ppl (I don't wanna spoil it by saying their name) making dumb decisions which will surely get in ur nerves.

The start is pretty solid and will kinda hook u up but its starts falling after few episodes

But try watching it u might like ot.
