Newtopia

Honestly, I watch Newtopia just to see actress Jisoo back on screen. I normally don't watch Korean movies or series but you shoud give this Newtopia series a chance.

As I watched episode 1 and 2, I realized that this series is so good. Zombie series but presented as funny, humorous way, plus the love story between Jisoo's characters and her enlisted army boyfriend making me curious, will they survive and meet again? Resolved their love?. It's refreshing, funny, so engaging, thrilling and Jisoo's acting is so good. She is improving, evolving as an actress. I am looking forward to her future acting projects.

As I said earlier, you shoud give this Newtopia series a chance.

It is good and beyond my expection ! Jeongmin JISOO and all cast did a great job and the production and plot is also great. The flow of plot is fast and fun. It really worth to watch. Comedy and zombie together seems fresh and fun combination so I am looking forward to more episodes. Also JISOO is so pretty and her acting is very natural. Her acting is really good and you will not believe she just formally star in two series. Park Jeongmin is a good actor I know him already but he is also really good. Other co-stars all did a great job. The horizontal and vertical moving of scenes also make senses.

So far I'm into episode 4. Ep1 was indeed a bit boring, as has been said by others. But you'll get to the end. In Ep2 the story begins to unfold. Don't expect a masterpiece in originality or story telling or camera work or dialog or anything really. All the 10 star reviews are just not objective, but neither are the 1 stars. Taste may be a bigger factor here than in other shows, because the story is nothing new, but it is done in a somewhat original way as a mix of horror (not much of it really), drama, and comedy (childish/quirky /silly, like in many k-series), and it may just suit you or it may not. It's harmless k-comedy-drama at its core in a zombie setting. Why not. The characters are a bit generic and could use more depth, but I do care about the main parts. And I wonder how the story continues, and what becomes of them.

So all in all, a solid 7. After Ep4 I raise to 7.5. Fine with me for a few hours of escapism.

I was not expecting much as i thought Jisoo is still quite inexperienced actress. But i was wrong. Every minute was worth it. The little details like slipping on blood, head getting stuck between elevator door, young joo putting the eyeball in polly bag and then someone crushing it under feet while running, Jin-wook peeing and panicking being in car. Everything was on point and funny. So far loving In ho - Jae yoon and Young joo - Jin wook duo. Now i can't wait longer for the next episode. It's gonna be a good watch for comedy lovers like me. Hope that, we won't get to see sad ending or tragedy.

Only 2 episodes have released but honestly saying, I am just obsessed with the series already. Everything is so good but the best part is the comedy. I am enjoying it so much, can't wait for the zombie action scenes but I am loving the comic elements as of now. Park Jeong Min is great great great and so hilarious for real. I am now his fan for sure. As for Kim Jisoo, I knew she was a crackhead in Blackpink so of course this role would suit her a lot and she didn't disappointed me at all. She is so funny as well and I definitely see the improvement in her acting from snowdrop. She acted great in snowdrop as a debutant but at some points, it felt like "she is acting", but as young Joo, it doesn't feel like she is acting, it feels like she is young Joo, she is living that character which is important for any actor out there. The plot is also quite interesting and very unusual which makes it even better. It's different from other zombie series definitely, and I am so excited for the upcoming episodes of Newtopia.
