Happiness

I had high hopes for this drama, mainly because I love the actress and horror/zombie movies/series.

Sadly the script had giant plot holes and made the characters take very silly choices. Most of the times I have found myself exclaiming "Why!" 😩

Even though I finished it, I have lost interest since episode 5.

Great start, premise and strong lead casting.

What failed in this show was excessively emotion manipulation by repeating extreme human selfishness mentality in unnecessary situations , while the selfish mentality disappear and becomes idiocy during critical moments when common sense should prevail.

While entertaining in parts , exhausting to watch when the formula keep repeating throughout the show.

If you are looking for full zombie action with run and kill all the time, then this might not suitable for you.

I find it quite interesting because every character has his/her own motive and agenda, and made different decisions when facing the virus infected persons.

It makes you think you would have done the same, if your priority is yourself or some bigger ambition over others...

I love a good Korean thriller; they take risks on scripts that Hollywood has become too self-indulged to make.

So I was excited to watch this, mainly due to the high ratings and reviews.

The acting is excellent, the characters are likable, and the zombies are genuinely scary.

Unfortunately, the plot of almost every episode is driven solely by the Characters making truly nonsensical decisions. Some of the scenes feel like they were written by excited ten year olds. It's sloppy writing at it's best. It's not clever enough to create tension without having people act in ridiculously Impractical ways. And this is where it loses me.

A shame because the lead actors are very likeable.

The actors are all spot on in each character, but the plot is both derivative and repetitive. And the ending feels tacked on. The series is okay, but definitely not the best of KDrama.
