    Wow!!! A must watch and a great comedy!!

    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!!

    Could have been good

    The first thing I noticed about this one: AMAZING picture. And this is the main reason I rate this so high.

    It had promise and it started very well, but the sister ruined the whole drama for me with her overacting. I don't blame the actress. It's her role. She wasn't the only bad role, but definitely the worst. In the attempt to make the drama funnier, they made some characters overact. It definitely didn't work.

    I would have rated with 7 stars if not for the stupid humour. It's a shame because there are some parts with nice humour, more fitting to the dark side of the drama. So, barely 6 stars for the production quality.

    A Zombie With A Heart

    I accidentally stumbled upon this series on Viu with a Tagalog dub, and my curiosity got the best of me. The zombie here is surprisingly cute, charming, and innocent. Even though he dislikes humans, he can't help but be kind-hearted by nature. No matter how hungry he gets or how much he wants to eat people (or pets), he always stops himself.

    Instead of hurting anyone, he learns how to live like a human and just go with the flow, taking whatever life throws at him. It's not your typical scary zombie story-it's actually a mix of comedy, lighthearted moments, and quirky twists. There are so many little events and subplots that keep things interesting. Watching it in Tagalog made it even funnier.

    At first, I found the female lead kind of annoying, but I realized that's just how her character was written. Eventually, she grew on me. Kim and Gong Sun's relationship starts off purely as business, but over time, they get closer and form this unique friendship-or maybe something platonic-but-special. I have a feeling Gong Sun likes Kim, but realistically, they can't be together. They're always bickering, but they still have each other's backs.

    The whole cast did a great job, especially the two nosy detective neighbors-they were absolutely hilarious. The visuals and production quality are top-notch, and the soundtrack is solid. The actor playing Detective Kim was perfect for the role-I honestly can't imagine anyone else pulling it off. Without him, I don't think the series would be as highly rated as it is.

    The only thing I noticed is that it felt like the series ended abruptly, almost like it was cut short. Maybe there's going to be a Season 2?
