Ale Feb 05 2023 5:51 am Why do I feel like this will be a complete mess? I've seen the anime and I hope they won't botch the series. This needs some high quality CGI, acting and writing to be decent.

V Nov 21 2022 2:39 pm I wonder if the Japanese version will be adapted as a live action drama like death note.

Byeol Sep 06 2022 2:12 pm @MissA idk what you're talking about. This is actually based from the manga. They are not copying the plot. They are gonna act based on the plot.

kuku ricoo Aug 28 2022 7:46 pm Stellar cast and director, with horror and anime screen adaptation expérience. This should be really good

MissA Aug 28 2022 9:29 am Seems meh to me... they kinda wanted to copy the plot from the Manga parasite but I have low hopes this would work.

scarletsungrok Aug 25 2022 8:55 pm so exciting!!! a very intriguing manga/anime and koo kyo hwan, both are my favs!

Loungsb Aug 25 2022 2:13 am Great Cast!!! thank you for this Can't wait

sara Aug 25 2022 12:57 am oh? i think this is going to be interesting as the protagonist is a woman instead of man like in the anime and manga version... i'm just hoping yeon sangho kamdoknim would be really exorting his resources to make this good!!
