As an avid mountaineer, I was very excited about this drama. Jirisan is added to one of my mountaineering plan. :)

To me, the CGI was not too awkward. It is really kinda similar to how you look out from the mountains at dawn. Everything is just greyish lol. I just wondered if they just filmed this on gloomy days but that did not take me off from continue watching.

Stellar actors, great concept and cinematics. The only regret was the storyflow from episode 13.

When you start watching it, it takes some time to get used to the past and current events, but it is fairly easy to tell from the screen on the timeline. Plot builds up from the middle, so it actually took me a few episodes + adjusting to the timeline to understand what is going on.

But when you advance to episode 13 where they start to introduce the scenes from 1990, it is where the confusion starts. They did not really introduce the characters well, and everyone looks different compared to the 2021 scene. O know people do age, but it is tough to follow up all the backstory in just 1 episode. Until the last episode, I am still unsure who is the real killer. I had to rewatch from epsiode 12 to understand.

AND, they did not explain how the leads are healed??? That is still a mystery! How can Yi Gang be able to CLIMB a mountain after being wheelbounded for 3 years at least? Physio + treatment takes years to even return to the normal. And Hyun Jo suddenly waking up after 3 years in vegetive state and being a ranger again. I am not sure, this feels not too logical to me LOL.

Conclusion:
This is basically a drama about how they caught a killer who disguises murders on Jirisan as accidents for revenge. Everything else is just a filler which does not even make much sense. :upside down smile:
