Confusing Story, Great Acting

The premise of this story excited me and I went all in, hoping for a better-than-Goblin experience with fantastic actors. While I wasn't completely let down, it was apparent that the writers struggled through the story, and come up with new concepts each week just to keep the story going -- whether it made sense or not.

I enjoyed the stories of the secondary characters far more than the two main. Kim Bum was fantastic throughout the series and expertly portrayed his dynamic character. Don't know if I would watch this series again, save for fast forwarding just to see the Kim Bum scenes XD.

A+ Story, Acting, Series

'Search' is definitely in my top 5 dramas of all time. I was hooked from episode 1 on the eerie subject, location (DMZ), and suspicious characters. When I began the first episode, the opening theme immediately reminded me of the movie 'Sicario' (another creepy one!).

While stationed along the DMZ, the main character, a South Korean military dog handler named Dong Jin, falls into an unexpected situation when he is just one week from discharge. Something strange is afflicting the land and people surrounding the DMZ. The writers tied that opening synopsis into the ending SO WELL, I nearly cried. Learning all about Dong Jin's past, the 1997 DMZ incident, and how each of the unit's characters fall into play together, kept me hooked. I can't recommend this series enough. I normally only watch romantic comedies, but took a chance this week and picked up 'Search' -- I was quite pleasantly surprised!
