mixed thoughts

(will mark when spoilers are ahead)

with some time to have this whole thing sink in, i found myself kind of remembering this as a lighthearted, cute, cringey, sci-fi drama. which is totally not what i think is what the director is really hoping for when it comes to the focus of this show?

while watching this series, i took things less seriously and just watched it as some feel-good break from life. the acting from the foreigners was just so god damn funny.

what disappointed me was how rushed things seemed. the ending was such a let down. erng went back without properly talking things out with mew, we did not even get a hug, if I remember correctly? the REAL erng was suddenly long forgotten in the drama and we didn't even have the two erngs meet.

nevertheless, i would be lying if I said I did not enjoy myself while watching this. it was very entertaining. mill's acting here was just.. CHEF'S KISS. amazing.

I will say however, the mock trailer of UMG seemed so, so much more mysterious and thrilling. the overall vibes, the atmosphere, the colouring. comparing it to the end result, this drama seems more colourful and more light. erng looked more disturbing(?) in the mock trailer, which made her look more mysterious as an alienated character.

when they introduced 42 as a character, it seemed so interesting. it was very intriguing until ssing's character took it in like a pet?? and 42 was suddenly a character that was.. cute. it was no longer all that intimidating which kind of disappointing. but still enjoyable.

couldn't have finished if it weren't for the actors.

honestly, it's really not a boring concept. a cursed camera sounds cool, and it would've been good if the directors did not put some corny ass story behind it.

the cgi was quite literally awful to the point that it turned this horror movie into a comedy. editing was strange, the monsters looked funny, that weird rat came out of nowhere- only appearing for a minute and was never to be seen again. the only good thing about this movie is its casts' performances.

if you're a fan of the main leads' work, its a great watch to see their range of acting. otherwise, it's a waste of time.

as you heard, ending sucked

it was going good. jimmysea stars in dramas that have incredible cinematography. I find myself stopping to admire some shots every time I watch an episode, it's truly beautiful. as for the story, it had so much potential to be amazing. it really was on the track, until the last few episodes.

the whole point of the show was to deliver that being blind does not equal to you being abnormal. the main message was, having a vision or not does not affect your ability to have a decent life. but the ending implied that "day's life was back to normal" when he gains his vision back. and can we just talk about the whole random break up? I can totally understand why day was upset, but breaking up with mhok was totally insane. and here comes the damn time skip.

i am disappointed that my girl, gee was forgotten by the end of it. :(

the music was so good, my heart ached for mhokday, i love them, the scenes are memorable, but the ending was just so ass. im disappointed that this series concluded the best ending to give day was him getting his vision back. so to have a good ending is to undo your blindness, that's how you can truly be happy. got it!
