Hometown

At first liked it... Then became very slow and very stale.. the producers tried their best to make it a suspense thriller but ended becoming slow and a bit sleep inducing boring.

Also, y r u creating a problem that never existed?

I mean India and South Korea always had an amazing relationship. We respect each other a lot and find a lot of similarities in each other's culture and so feel very related to each other (most probably cz of the spread of Buddhism in Korea long time ago and also being an Easter race just like Indian-dravidians).

The series tries it's best to target and insult India/Hindu ideologies even tho it doesn't touch any of them at all.. pretty weird.

It's like when America was discovered but mistaken as India which is why we have the racial term "red/native Indians" This series does the very same by antagonizing hindi that too by totaly mispronouncing and misinterpreting every syllable of Hindi. Showing as sanskrit mantra and yoga as marker of the ongoing "evil force".. My question is WHY???

Hometown: A South Korean TV series which includes a few tropes, serial killers, cults, noir, police procedural, but taken together with all of the violence and death involved it elides into the slipstream of Horror. Set in 2000, 1999, 1987 with shorter flashbacks to other years. In 1987 members of a cult launch a gas attack at a railway station killing hundreds. In 1999, detective Choi Hyung-in who lost his wife in the 1987 attack sees a pattern in seemingly random killings and suspects that the cult is back. Only one person was ever convicted of involvement in the attack, Jo Kyung-ho; his sister Jo Jung-hyun becomes involved in the case after her niece goes missing, The timelines cut back and forth, often in a confusing manner so keep off your phone when you're watching this. Killer cults may have milder cults as fronts but paradoxically this makes it even more difficult to infiltrate them. The use of mind control through mixtapes and video tapes is portrayed in a convincing yet horrific manner. The violence isn't just that of the mass killings, individual deaths are also shown in a traumatic way. There are 12 hour long episodes, the strands gradually weave together as the series reaches a conclusion. It all fits together in the final episode. At least i think it does! Stick with this one and you'll find it rewarding. Directed by Park Hyun Suk,Written by Joo Jin. On Netflix. 8/10.

I got so fed up with those still interviews with this so called Guru prisoner who can turn people to murderers. The loss of life is senseless to say the least, ineffective affected, sad and angry no nothing cop makes it worse. All this cause of some bloodline child, like the devil's child The way the guru prisoner talks is so exhausting I started forwarding his scenes, if he knows everything then why not just end everything. So disappointed 😞.

The schools girls were the only perfect thing, there love for their lost friend and the togetherness was beautiful. I almost just want to watch the last episode so that the last 7 to have meant something.

It keeps your attention! You will want to solve the mystery too. This isn't a fast-paced thriller Tyler of storyline, but it's not boring. The OST is nice. I'm patiently waiting for Uhm Tae Goo to get more screen time, I love his works. If you feel Episode 1 wasn't that spectacular stick through it! Episode 2 is much better than, the story is slowly unraveling. It gives me the "Beyond Evil" drama vibes. I'll update my review on some episodes if I feel the need to until the end. I'm giving it a 7 for now, based on 1st 2 episodes.

Tbh bit weird but in interesting wtf Way Kept my attention was not bored. Just not sure where it was going As I had no clue of plot One thing the bloke who was in jail Was spookily good even voice/ too Will watch end But not sure if will ff some sciences as some r not needed.
