    A Gripping Dark Drama!

    I love this show! I wish I can binge-watch it but sadly, I have to wait two episodes every week on DisneyPlus. I would've binge-watched this in a day! Love the female lead coz she's such a great actress. It's the first time seeing her here. Every character in this story is so intriguing and this is possibly my fave role for Cha Eun Woo. I've seen him in romantic comedies, fantasy, but never in an intense drama and thriller like this. His acting fits his role even if he's too attractive for the role he's playing. It's an ongoing series and I can't wait for the next episode! I think a lot of moms can resonate with this show as well as married couples. What I am mostly anticipating is Cha Eun Woo's real identity and intentions. He seems to have a hidden agenda based from what I've seen so far, and also from the beginning, the hook used was foreshadowing. It seemed like he was mad at the female lead and he was about to run her over. I think he might be the son of the guy that the female lead killed.

    The best drama in this year and wasn't romcom

    The story that this drama develops is heartbreaking to a certain point. The actors played their characters so well, that you feel empathy for their emotions. Sometimes dramas are good but they don't know how to give closure; however, here, the closure was perfect. They both found forgiveness, redemption, worked together and gave themselves the opportunity to heal as they could. I loved that Eunwoo had the space to develop in a drama that is not a romantic comedy, I think he has had exponential growth in this drama, we know that it is the character with which he identifies the most. The female protagonist was perfect in her role. I highly recommend watching it!

    "A Captivating Mystery And Thriller Drama"

    She's Kim Namjoo, she's an excellent actress that always serve. It really started in a very heart wrenching episode, every episode is getting more interesting. Thank you for the star studded casts, love all the actors in this drama.

    Cha Eunwoo, my jaw dropped and my knees buckled seeing you in every episode, you're so cool in action, i'm really into Kwon Seon-yul who's as handsome as hell and manly. You have the quality. Let's go for more mature roles in the future. Fighting!

    P. S.

    Seon-yul, looks like an angel, he smiles kindly on the outside, which makes him kind. But he has a sharp on the inside, which is quite unexpected.

    Good Enough

    Korean Drama '' Wonderful World '' is a melodrama-thriller.

    The drama has quite a tragic story and it easily gets emotional and bittersweet when it deals with those matters. With an intense start, the drama slowly unfolds into a political thriller, with the main couple (not a romantic one though, fortunately!!!) having lots of chemistry and enhancing the intensity of the story.

    Also, the performances were all great by every actor and actress of the cast. The characters were interesting as well and had depth. In addition, the family drama had many layers.

    Finally, the ending was nicely handled, though the final episodes seemed like they were losing momentum.

    So, overall, eight out of ten.
