Zombie Detective

The female lead character is over-the-top agressive, pushy and loud to get what she wants. It's always her way and she won't let ANYONE say no to her. If you can take that, then you'll love this show! But Choi Jin Huyk has such a 'bloody' good role that you will likely put all that aside. I couldn't. But go enjoy...the humour is on the cheesy side but the 'Beef Tripe' is tasty.

... even if you're not into zombies. There's a bit of overacting, but not excessively so. Indeed, it's rather meant to be. A few plot holes, but then again, with such a story, that's par for the course.

This is not meant to make sense. It's meant to entertain, and does so well. The obsessions over absurd points, such as striving to not look like a zombie, mocks the current men's beauty trends. The over-the-top annoying female lead pokes fun at the stereotypical female KDrama trope. One gets the feeling that everyone was in on the joke, and worked seamlessly to pull it off.

I get a distinct Park Hyung-sik vibe from Park Ju-hyun. She has the same expressions and ability to portray multi-layered characters. She also has the gift of physical comedy, though it's not as evident. Watch her in a few more shows, especially Mouse, and see if you catch that vibe, too.

I did not like this one at all. I really tried but it was nothing special. You would expect that the Zombie Detective to have an impact on actual ongoing investigations while working on how he came to be, but unfortunately there was no such impact. I also couldn't connect with Park Joo-Hyun's character at all. The comedy aspect of the series did not help at all fill that gap. Skip this one. Not worth it.

Korean Mini Series 'Zombie Detective' is a smooth blend of comedy and mystery. The drama uses the zombie situation of the main lead in the most hilarious way, from his tries to imitate being human to him advertizing the make-up product, to his relationship with the leading lady. Everything was well done, not overstepping the borders of ridiculous, and keeping a nice balance between comedy and action.

The mystery, in addition, was a nice touch that kept things going for a while. The small cases weren't plenty, but they were enough to get things more entertaining and give time to the main plot to slowly mature.

The performances, finally, were all great from everyone in the cast.

So, overall, 7 out of 10.

I am in love with the Zombie Detective. And Park Ju Hyun and our Bae Gyuri rocked as always!!!

Plot was interesting. 3 mysteries were solved in the entires season. 1st case making base for the evolution of zombie detective, was soooo amazing!

And the comedy was truly awesome!!
