stranger kdrama review

November 5, 2019 Posted by Ilse Van Den Heede. When he wasn’t doing that, he would be spending his time in the communal kitchen or wandering Eden waiting for Jong-Woo to get home.

Jong-Woo who has only ever lived in the quiet and peaceful countryside his whole life, is excited and at the same time a little apprehensive about upending his entire life and moving it to the capital of South Korea. However, mysterious events start occurring in the apartment, causing Jong Woo to start fearing the apartment’s residents. TV Review: Stranger/Forest of Secrets (Kdrama) (Spoilers!) Forest of Secrets / Stranger - Another S. Korean suspense hit!

The Korean crime-drama “Stranger” is engrossing. Every character is perfectly written, with enough nuance and depth to make their interactions memorable. If you still feel like giving Strangers From Hell a try, definitely go for it. Found dead in his apartment, prosecutor Si-Mok rushes to the scene and begins piecing together what really happened.

Not to mention, the halls leading to the rooms were very poorly lit and the walls were so thin that the neighbors could hear each other’s breaths. That's a series I really want to see, provided the writers of Stranger make the trip with him. Required fields are marked *. Change ), You are commenting using your Google account.

It is a slow burn, but it is all worth it in the end. This 2000 South Korean drama's legacy and popularity is the equivalent to that of Titanic.

I have never written reviews about a drama/film/song and whatnot before but upon completion of this Drama, I felt compelled to say a little, at least something about it. There’s a lot of talking. Meantime, my car was repossessed, and my wife ran off to join the circus.

Review. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting and unkempt, with communal showers and kitchen that looked grimy and haven’t seen a scrub and soap in years. Stranger / Secret Forest / Forest of secrets (The Korean Masterpiece), Fantastic, One of The best series I have seen in many years, Absolutely thrilling start to my K drama exploration. Prosecutor Hwang Si-mok (Cho Seung-woo) and police inspector Han Yeo-jin (Bae Doo-na) reunite to uncover the truth behind intertwined cases. I normally get bored with dramas where the foe is known and its a matter of episodes before the lead figures out what I already knew. But of course, Strangers From Hell isn’t a fairyland and it doesn’t tell a story about nice people doing nice things. He actually said a lot with just his eyes, and I found it interesting that we were able to look into his thought processes as it was narrated at times as compared to Yeo Jin who verbalized it during the series. There’s no romantic sub-plot or the usual tropes you’d expect, save for some late-season drama that tackles political ideas we’ve seen many times before. Aside from this, it is a good mystery thriller, as it keeps you guessing and double guessing things, clues, and even the characters themselves all the way until the end. It’s amazing how invested you get in what seems a simple conversation until two episodes in, you realize that there’s layers under layers under layers of meaning. She showed Jong-Woo his room to-be, which consisted of a bed, desk and a chair. Regarding the main mystery itself, I loved paying attention to every detail so that I could try to connect the dots and solve things on my own. It definitely started off with a solid 10, however, it eventually went downhill as the story progresses. With a 2 month window, the season twists and turns through various different suspects. The series giv… Si Mok was another interesting character, and I’m amazed at how steadfast and how strong he was. ”Trailer” Most of the directors of crime thrillers will underestimate the viewers capacity and irritate us with their screenplay. The title “Stranger” ultimately refers to Si-Mok himself. Also, the cinematography and the production value of “Stranger” was some of the best I have seen to date! However, in the end, even though he did try to do good, as Si Mok says, it still doesn’t excuse the fact that he did have people murdered in the name of justice.

Also, there was less emphasis on the romance this time around, and the plotting, for a Korean drama, wasn’t as slow or draggy at all, but still allowed for some time to properly flesh out the characters that we are supposed to care about.

It’s adorable. Would love your thoughts, please comment. Although, as soon as we start episode 4, things started to feel slightly repetitive and boring. Lee Chang Jun’s (Yoo Jae Myung) character is another example. I guess if you ask me what is one thing that’s memorable about Jung-Woo, that’s what I would say, his anger. Its very rare that a Korean TV Drama would compel me to write a review in India .This one did. Hats off to the entire team for such brilliant production. I just finished watching part 2 .

Last month, as I was looking over the list of things I’ve reviewed and watched in the past year, I realized that I hadn’t watched as much Korean dramas as I wanted to, despite the fact that Netflix has been distributing a lot of them as of late.

And theres lovely subtle humour too, stemming from the interaction between the two leads, who couldn't be more different. It’s this level of depth and thoughtful writing that ultimately makes Stranger such a good drama. Even though he doesn't really have the ability to feel emotions, he wasn't like super mean or problematic. Now, he works as a prosecutor. With the help of a gutsy female detective, a prosecutor who has lost the ability to feel empathy tackles a … Ahn Gil-Ho’s directional pace keeps the climax steadily growing with constant revelations and twists. Blending excellent characterization, lots of twists and some believable detective work, Stranger is a must-watch Korean drama. Episode 8
