The show had an interesting premise, the Gwangju uprising, which is so intriguing it'll require a few Google searches to fully understand what and why this was important. For that an A+ to the show great way to spread awareness. Acting by the cast, fantastic, even the child actors were great. Specially Lee Do Hyun, the guy can is just amazing...his love for Go Min Si's character was very evident, and heartwarming, traumatic events were beautifully shown by him as well as the funny and quipped scenes, just awesome. Go Min Si was good but not on par with Lee Do Hyun, the chemistry from her side lacked and often required the story to show an alternate perspective through which the audience was made to realise that she did love the ML(-0.5). Then there are the SML and SFL who are just if not to create problems are just there for the sake of being there. The show introduces us to the uprising via SFL who seems the most distant from the cause, you never learn her motivation for the protest and only cause more problems in the main characters life unknowingly and the SML would have been tolerable if stayed as the oblivious moron but he too out of jealousy ended up creating more problems like ffs they are more annoying than the Villain of the show.(-1) The show probably wanted to make people realise how innocent people who had nothing to do with the Uprising were caught in the crossfire but they shouldn't have then made it a core characteristic of the SFL, because by the end of the show that's how anyone will know her.

Had a lot of potential though, the show started a lot of good story points which were either never addressed or were just brought to the conclusion very easily, one such point was the FL and SFL with the past trauma they had.

Its a good experience anyway, tells the viewers about the brutality under the military that South Korea had to go through in 1980, the number of people who died meaningless deaths and how that even now they will not have to face justice because that's how the real world is.

Sorry for the long rant. Thanks for reading. See you later.

This movie has everything that anyone would love. You like thriller they got it, you like horror they got it, you like comedy they got it, you like suspense they got it. It's just pure awesome.

For me Anya was the perfect choice for the movie, she has a grace and finesse to her. She's the audience eyes and we see through her and that makes it all the more intresting as we peel the onion of this mystery to find the truth of the answer.

Ray was menacing. Everything he did was spine chilling. The moment he came on you knew that he was the man to look out for. Him and Anya's interaction were very very tense.

Nicholas is so good. Always playing the nerd the way his character develops through the movie is incredible. Never knew he had such range.

All in all its amazing. A little bit over reaching, but horror on point, comedy on point, but most of all Anya's sass super on point.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for everyone who loves horror and thrillers and obviously food.

Since I was born in 2000 and in India, I never knew about Top Gun. It amazed me to hear such unanimous fan following of a movie from '86. I knew Tom cruise was in it and all but I never was an action loving guy. So already the appeal for it was vaining and have been sleepover on it forever. And then Maverick was released and it started getting the same reaction the previous one did so as soon as my exams were over I sat down to watch it, and boy it is a fun ride. Obviously there are stuff in it which shows it's date of release but everytime a dog fight came on it was hype train for real. Characters were good enough and didn't feel too on the nose. And the music just screamed awesome through and through.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for everyone.

Going to watch the sequel Thanks for reading.
