Newtopia

Not your typical romcom or zombie thriller. Feels more like a movie than kdrama. Director should've start the show with female lead since kdrama fans love beautiful visuals. And show more of them together to get viewers connected with them til 8th ep

**They'll show more of their relationship in between as flashbacks, like the scenes in Shop for killers (same writer).

Pros: Good acting, good chemistry between cast, easy and straight forward plot, zombies are bloody gore, the lead couple are cute in flashbacks, the FL team looks promising for a fun ride with zombies, ML seems creative and not scared fighting zombies so it's not dumb and dumberer just a hint of humor take

Cons: Too short and quickly done scenes, unsure which direction it'll take next which is good to keep us guessing but also worry it'll be heavily leaning to soldiers instead of the romantic leads. I hope I'll come back and say how happy there's very little military scene especially the squad leader we don't really care about them like that.

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.

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.

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.

Actually I'm not a fan of zombies because I hate gore but this series is great it's very funny and doesn't make me feel disgusted by blood or zombie scenes, also at first I was worried about Jisoo's acting because everyone criticizes her acting exaggeratedly, but when I watched episode 3, bro she's a great actress the role suits her perfectly I think all these critics are just haters who don't like Jisoo only and don't judge her performance but because she's Jisoo the idol, you can't believe she's the least experienced among the crew and yet her performance is great, also the lead and his friend are very enjoyable. Thanks to all the makers of the work for this great effort.
