Gyeong-iloun Somun

I read what it's about and I was like, cool, some of the supernatural “we're going to fight the boogeyman" stuff, I'm in the mood for that. Only it ended up fighting corruption and dirty politics. It's like they couldn't forgive themselves. I mean, sure, given the way the story was laid out, it wasn't going to work here, but I was really hoping they were just going to fight demon slime... The series is horribly inconsistent. Sometimes it had pacing and cool action, but then it kind of bogged down into boredom and I didn't feel like I needed to keep watching to see how it would turn out. By the tenth episode, the feelings of not being excited were more prevalent, when suddenly there was tension, super action, it had momentum... and I thought it was finally picking up speed and I was excited to see what would happen next. Except that it fell down again, the tension faded, we got some unnecessary filer here and there, probably because of emotions or something, but it didn't go well, the songbird wasn't up to it, then it climaxed and showed what happened afterwards. Which was fine, I have to admit the ending of the show was hilarious. Disinterest alternated with interest, and I didn't come away from the series feeling like I got what I wanted to see, nor did I get adequate compensation instead. Sure, it's Korea, it looks nice, but that's about it. (2021.03.01)
