Comments

Gel Aug 10 2025 1:08 pm One of the best kdrama for me. Intriguing and the suspense of the scenes. The plot is serving. Ngl you'll never regret watching this. Also, I love Ju Ji-Hoon ever since Princess Hours.

Ish Jun 24 2024 9:43 am Intense, powerful, moving series, with great actors, directors and technicians. Not easy to follow at first, but you get used to it. The mountain is tough, but you have to make it feel that way, and it works. Congrats to those who brought us this story.

berry.bunny Jun 22 2024 1:08 am Suddenly, I want to hike hahhahahah!!!! 10/10 plot and I love the ending^^

Shi Feb 14 2024 2:58 am only decided to watch this after seeing a lot of kingdom cast here... if feels like their reincarnation in present time ngl. I totally loved this tho I agree with what others say, killer was revealed kinda early or at least the strong clue who it was and the police still up in the mountain(?)

feel like it would've been enough if the romance between the leads are wrapped differently cuz honestly this was not a romance but there are subtle hints of it and im loving every scene of it. I was left hanging but knowing the writer's previous works, she may not be a fan of romance sooo TT^TT

in my case, I was kept entertained til the end (maybe cuz I love the cast?) but that feat is amazing 4 someone like me who cant finish dramas :')

TV Jan 04 2024 5:32 am The mistake they did in this drama was that they revealed or hinted who the killer too early. Which made the "guessing who is the culprit" episodes irrelevant already. Which is why I also agree with the comments here that it could've just been a mini-series or a movie. 16 Episodes is too much. Anyway it is still a good watch tho, props to the staffs, casts, and everyone for filming it in Jirisan and I still love how unique this drama is cause it's by far the first kdrama I watched that features park rangers.

Jimmy Oct 01 2023 10:40 pm Best kdrama! This is the kdrama genre that i love, with amazing actors and actresses, and great storyline

KST Aug 29 2023 11:54 am Wow what an amazing masterpiece! I am glad to watch this masterpiece. This is really impressive from the very beginning. Jun ji hyun and Ju ji hoon's roles were really nice. Jun ji hyun had a great chemistry with Ju ji hoon. This drama is a drama wich has make us curious. I am really enjoy that curiosity while watching this drama. I will recommend this to all kdrama lovers. Hope you too enjoy! Saranghae!!!

Park Min Aug 23 2023 5:19 pm It became quite apparent right off from episode 2 that this was a massive flop. The drama would have worked wonderfully and masterfully as a movie or at least as a 3-4 episodes short drama, otherwise, it's absolutely riddled with problems in its current condition and format. The unique setting and scenery weren't enough to help its case. It ingeniously transformed the art of storytelling into a chaotic, avant-garde mishmash of disjointed scenes that left me pondering the deep mysteries of life, such as whether the writers had ever heard of structured narrative or if they were just operating under the belief that plotlines are mere suggestions for lesser beings. Each plot twist, if one could even call them that, was a tantalizing leap into the abyss of narrative incoherence, leaving me on the edge of my seat not in anticipation, but in a desperate attempt to maintain my balance amidst the swirling vortex of plot holes and character motivations more elusive than a unicorn at a camouflage convention. I can't thank the creators enough for their valiant efforts to reduce character development to a cryptic crossword puzzle that nobody asked for, but we apparently all deserved, according to them. I wish to see better attempts going for a similar setting and theme from more competent creators. It's hard to recommend this drama unless you're a diehard fan of some of the cast members. Jun Ji Hyun disappearing for ~5 years then coming back with this project was nothing but a disappointment. It made it harder to be excited for her next project "Polaris (2023)".

Ion Jul 17 2023 11:33 am I'm a fan of Kim Eunhee, so I decided to watch this. Sadly it didn't piqued my interest back then so I kinda left it and just picked this up now. Tbh directing is a bit messy and I don't like the casts for the leads. Less known, younger, actors would do better tbh.

DeeDo Mar 10 2023 8:13 am Though it's not romance, I love the chemistry between main leads. No need sweet words or kiss scence, their look/action told everything. I feel so sweet watching them. I'm not a fan of diaster genere, I really love the way they present. I need Season 2 for this one.

Marathon24 Feb 04 2023 4:43 am I love this drama. This is my cup of tea and the genre that I love. No wonder, the writer is the same writer who wrote Signal, Kingdom, Phantom, and 3 Days. I watched and love all of those. Jun Ji Hyun and Ju Ji Hoon are both doing great in this drama. I would love to see them together in Kingdim Season 3.

And maan... I just love their outfits and gears, especially their windproof jacket and uniform. Would love to have one of those, haha.

Tililing Dec 07 2022 9:21 am I super love this drama! I guess it didnt blow up as much as was expected because there was less romance between the 2 leads. But by God, they have great chemistry! Personally, this drama kept me on my seat. Can hardly take my eyes off it.

Taetae Sep 17 2022 7:57 am Good drama! Love me a good thriller serie. They forgot about the police man that got killed tho. Guess his body still up there..

Cath Feb 25 2022 11:12 am Really unique story, but a bit draggy. Is this somekind of a break to get closer with kingdom cast? So many kingdom cast is here. Wonder why they do this drama instead of continue with kingdom season 3?? I really cant wait for kingdom season 3

Ash Feb 14 2022 5:17 am The whole time I was watching this, I got so curious what brand of sunblock are they using. Hahahaha kidding aside, KEH is indeed the queen of crime drama writers. If you liked this, go watch Signal and Phantom :)

Republic58 Jan 26 2022 3:32 am Acting was top notch, especially the supporting cast

Visual inviting

Story: at times weak, unnecessary, redundant, silly, with noticeable plot holes

Overall not as expected but still a good weekend watch

sun Jan 24 2022 4:48 pm 7.5/10 for a Writer Kim Eun-hee drama

As usual and talented of her, always have fresh brilliant ideas to create a drama. I personally enjoyed Jirisan and stayed for all episodes because first, it kept me on edge every time, I love every single character here and their backstory, then cinematography without doubt was great!

But probably because it’s Kim Eun-hee, I expected she can add more ideas though and I was surprised it was pretty easy to guess the murderer from 8th episode onwards. Could’ve been awesome if they add a proper police team to work with the rangers and a medical team would be nice as well. Maybe because of pandemic or maybe I already watched many drama, Jirisan was great but could be a lot better.

Val Jan 09 2022 9:53 pm One of the best kdrama i've ever watched!!!

John Jan 04 2022 2:27 am @Jei/Bing Why do they need the phone to read messages. Would the internal memory really survive in the water? Doesn't the phone company keep records? Why did they use their own phones? Why did experienced rangers stand so close the edge of the snow, or fall into the water?

Don't think too hard about any of that. :)

Dreamer Jan 03 2022 1:13 pm I like the concept.. For the very first time saw a drama based on Forest Rangers and yeah they did an Amazing work there.. They showed their sacrifices and harsh duty in difficult terrain even risking their own lives big time in the process.. I like the comradeship and the murder mystery as well but that ghost sequence somewhat doesn't work for me.. But as a whole Nice Cinematography, music, Acting, Directing.. Etc.

Maggie Jan 01 2022 3:36 pm It was an ohk drama.. Not bad and not great either...my problem was the ghost story.. Super confused by that part

Jei Dec 31 2021 11:24 am @bing Sewook's phone was found when they were searching the flood victims belongings near the river. They didn't know that it was Sewook's phone until they realize the bee sticker on it. Sewook and Sol are both son of beehive owners

hestyarious Dec 29 2021 12:32 pm So sadddd Jeong Gu Yeong with Lee Yang Sun ??

Devina Septiana Dec 23 2021 10:47 am @bing : first murderer? SeWook? because HyunJoo found SeWook's phone and it is put it in Police Station

bing Dec 23 2021 8:00 am spo!!

why didnt they investigate the first murderer's phone though why is it that a mere neighbourhood police station is keeping a critical evidence

nebulae Dec 23 2021 2:08 am Love the drama, I think it's the best ending, even though we need more explanation of the main character's feelings. Good plot, and the storyline was amazing, though I don't really like the mystic thing. lol.

Momrin Dec 18 2021 8:25 am Jirisan isn’t actually that bad..It's not romance story..the way they portray characters and show struggle of rangers and life around mountain is so realistic and treat to watch..yes its not the best but its not the worst either.. Overall a good drama with emotional elements..

4Score&7 Dec 17 2021 4:46 pm This could and should have been one of the best kdramas of 2021 based on the amount of money invested in production and the huge promotion of the series prior to broadcast. Many people, myself included, were dismayed by the picture backdrops instead of actual scenery. It was so obvious it was embarrassing to see. With the huge budget it was disappointing that the visuals weren’t a higher priority.

The story itself was a great concept which made the uneven pacing and disjointed writing a real shame. Overall, I was happy to see the ratings recover somewhat, but it really became a ‘take it or leave it’ show for me. Spending a huge amount of money is a waste if the quality of the show is lacking. I did

Hyunie Dec 17 2021 1:36 pm I Swear I Love This Drama, kids may find it boring but it’s my type of storyline and I love the cast!! I love the plot, I love how they portrayed the mountains as an important aspect in the story and also how the rangers work there!! Am really glad I watch it till the last episode, it’s soo healing and soothing! Of course there’s thrilling part at the same time.

SNLG Dec 15 2021 4:50 am Jirisan is one of the rare ones that tugs on my emotional roller coaster....even after it ends....although it has its own flaws, it has its good points and pros as well....from this show we know how difficult national park rangers' job is, and we will appreciate them more.....we could see how beautiful Jirisan is....

I cannot visit Jirisan but a BIG Thank You to all staff, cast and crew for bringing Jirisan to my home :)

Jirisan Dec 15 2021 2:41 am @Jeff : so slowwww? Dragged? Really????? Oh ok, everyone has different taste. It's ok, it's ok, no problem. For me, this drama sooooo amazing. One of the best kdrama ever. My family watch every week, all of us so sad this drama has to ended. But happy ending, whoaaa, no expexted that, i am so happy. Congrats to all cast!!!

Jeff Dec 14 2021 8:14 pm This drama is so slowwwwwwwww. Da story is so meaningless n they dragged on for 16 lousy episodes.

Puster Dec 14 2021 11:44 am Jirisan is the best drama in 2021!

The storyline, the cast, the OST, the production team, and what's most important is the emotional roller coaster they gave me for these past two months... I'm running out of words. Superb!!

Eneri Dec 14 2021 9:16 am Best Kdrama for this year!!! JJH x2 did not disappoint! Saranghae! :)

Gi Dec 14 2021 3:15 am Not sure why people always yearn for love stories in each and every drama getting released. This is not a romance genre. To be honest, this drama was so beautiful that showcased the emotions of every individual who had some sort of a connect with the mountain. This ain't your typical makjang drama with the same scenes and tiring love triangles. This drama has delivered what it meant to deliver and I'm glad I watched this till the end. For those who are asking for Happy ending and romantic scenes, there are trillions of dramas already out there. Let this remain however the writer wanted it to remain.

SNLG Dec 14 2021 1:47 am Spoilers here !!!!!

I like the happy ending but unhappy that they played with our feelings thinking that he is dead already. He only appeared the last 3 mins of the finale. It will be better if there's one more epi to wrap up the loose ends and to show how the two of them recover and what Yi Gang wanted to tell Hyun Jo.

Ang_Gale Dec 13 2021 1:43 pm Beautiful drama! A new and surprising environment. stunning soundtrack and professional cast. I'm also happy with the direction. and above all the end did not disappoint me ... indeed! I highly recommend it! ♥

CV Dec 13 2021 10:57 am So dissapointed. It was a good story, great actors, but they should've hire a better director. The directing is soooo yesterday, like a drama made in early 20s. Bad ost, bad editing, bad CGI. Also what's with the final episode?? I hoped for a great problem solving, but it just meh and ridiculous. No romance at all huft. As a fan of this drama and follow it every weekend (i'm not the type of watching an on going drama except for my favorite actors. Only for Jun Ji Hyun, i watch this on time) i feel betrayed by the very tiny space for happy ending. They could've make it longer at least 30 mins.

Aaa Dec 13 2021 10:08 am Woww this drama was so hype before it started, and now i didn’t even realised it has ended. It didn’t quite live up to the hype, thought it gonna be ‘the talk of the town’, but didn’t really saw much people talking about this drama on social medias, and some even drop it. But still probably gonna watch it later or sooner, but just by how it seem, it kinda disappointing.

Joanne Dec 13 2021 9:22 am To SNLG.. Woong soon did need the herb for his mother so he asked the herb collector for the herb.. The younger police mentioned that wppng soon mother's condition got worse

Carmela Dec 13 2021 8:13 am I feel really satisfy, with this drama love a lot the end and the music, love love love this drama.......it was really really full of love!!!

Jiri Dec 12 2021 10:09 pm I feel like Yang Geun-Tak ( cable car person ) death is portrayed like he died when hiking. But he was also in the bus accident with Seo yi gang grandmother. his death is confusing.

Ibu ibu jowo Dec 12 2021 9:43 pm I cry seeing Jung Gooyoung's memory, they look cute together.. I stopped watching when the rangers went on patrol to the top. if i don't read the comments, i hardly know that KangHyunJoo is alive again.. hehe

Thanks for the happy ending. this is quite entertaining because my eyes are quite tired from the frequent flashing scenes like a discotheque every time there is suspicion...wkwk

And because of the back and forth flow, I just realized that Jang Geuntak is an old man who died at the beginning of the scene.. he appears quite often, I think they are just similar people..wkwk

Typical007 Dec 12 2021 7:33 pm Spoiler.

Did they forgot Wong Soon(police) body in the mountain? I don't remember the scenes.

littlepinky Dec 12 2021 4:23 pm i like the whole story not expecting a good ending with both main lead.....and lee sun bin is on last ep as hyun joo sisterlet..i thougjt sje will also be a next ranger... go min si role bit short lived but served the purpose as rookie..so with yo.min kyung.....i m just an ordinary but addicted kdrama/kmovie fan this who watch this first drama related to mountain....

sadboi Dec 12 2021 2:17 pm Do I recommend this show? Yes. Does it have good chemistry and a good plot? Yes. Was the flow good too? No. It's not boring but this drama had so much potential they had to make it a mediocre one because of the writing. It's like you have such a perfect story, a nice beginning, and end. And yet and you're so overwhelmed by your own ideas you forget to execute them well. I definitely recommend it because the cast and acting were just perfect and the plot was definitely something else, so don't be alarmed by the coming essay lols

SPOILERS AHEAD*

- - - - SERIOUSLY!!!!

One thing I'm so pissed about is the flow of the show and the writers forgetting that their characters are human beings with real emotions.

the whole murder mystery was a good plot twist but when you drag it on that long it's so easy to predict and as mean as this sounds, those four victims deserved it (not the innocent people I'm not that harsh). Those guys were literal murderers and subjected a man to kill himself too? Hell, as evil as the murderer is these guys are way worse its insane It would've made sense for the writers to have shown the trauma this caused on him and him being upset instead of just being a mad psycho (he is but they really could've gone to depth with that)

And goodness them barely focusing on Yi gangs feelings and just making her change the subject to the murder thing was so bland and annoying. It wouldn't make sense for Yi gang to not show a little more emotion regarding Hyun jo and I don't even mean this romantically and what about the mental toll it took on her for needing a wheelchair after being a ranger her whole life and her rehabilitation process??

the only part where they succeeded in the whole emotion thing is Goo young and Yang suns relationship (i cried during their scenes don't get me started)

even the ending was hasty and dry, they were desperate to make us emotional at the end when the girl was applying for the ranger job (I don't want to be that person but the employer doesn't usually talk much it was annoyingly forced just because we were familiar with the interviewee) and we barely saw Hyun jo and then surprise surprise he's alive in the last five minutes.. it was expected but so sudden like they're forcing a happy ending for us.

one more thing that triggered me was the villagers that survived, they should've shown us that they were held accountable too, just cause they had a bigger problem at hand doesn't change the fact that they participated in murder too...

I still loved the show overall don't get me wrong but they could've added so much more depth to it... it's honestly just the end that triggered me this much I didn't expect myself to go on a rant ahaha...

mar Dec 12 2021 2:16 pm Do I recommend this show? Yes. Does it have good chemistry and a good plot? Also yes. Was the flow good too? No... It's not boring but this drama had so much potential they had to make it a mediocre one because of the writing. It's like you have such a perfect storyline with a good beginning and end. And yet you're so overwhelmed by your own ideas you forget to execute them well. I definitely recommend this cause the cast and acting was just subpar and the plot was definitely something else, so please, don't be alarmed by the coming essay lols

SPOILERS AHEAD*

- - - - Seriously!!!!!

Ive mentioned this already: the flow. Absolutely horrendous. They focus on things that are so irrelevant and had so much time to do their characters justice but they don't. The writers so obviously forget their characters are human beings with real emotions and forget to make us connect with them.

The whole murder mystery was a good plot twist but when you drag it on that long it becomes so predictable! And as mean as this sounds, the four victims deserved it (not the innocent people I'm still sane). Those guys were literal murderers and subjected a man to kill himself too?? Hell, as evil as the murderer is these guys are way worse its insane. It would've been interesting for the writers to have shown the trauma this caused on him and his mental process as a young adult instead of just being a mad psycho.

And goodness them barely focusing on Yi gangs feelings and just making her change the subject each time to talk about the murder thing was so bland and annoying (maybe if she connected with the residents they could've confided in her sooner or let smthn slip up) And it doesn't make sense how Yi gang rarely shows any emotions regarding Hyun jo and I don't even mean this romantically (everytime they'd try to make it about them it goes back to the murders case) and what about the mental toll it took on her for needing a wheelchair after being a ranger her whole life? and her rehabilitation process??

the only part where they succeeded in the whole emotion thing is Goo young and Yang suns relationship (I cried during their scenes don't get me started)

even the ending was hasty and dry, they were desperate to make us emotional and the end when the girl was applying for the ranger job (I don't want to be that person but an employer doesn't usually talk that much, it was annoyingly forced just because we were familiar with the interviewee) We barely saw Hyun jo and then surprise surprise he's alive in the last five minutes... it was expected but so sudden, why force a happy ending so randomly like that when you had a whole hour to do that?

Another thing that triggered me was the villagers that survived, they should've shown us that there were held accountable too, just cause they had a bigger problem at hand doesn't change the fact that they literally participated in murder too.

lastly, and this might be a lil confusing, was the whole mountain intentions thing. If the mountain can foresee the bad things that will happen then, why didn't it just kill off the murderer from the beginning, why show Hyun jo specifically and why act like it's so helpless when at the end it killed him itself? it's such a contradictory concept... I would've let it go if the murderer didn't die from the mountain and rather from anything else, that way it would've made sense why it doesn't intervene but now it's so confusing. And why say that whoever sees the ghost dies and have Yi gang be completely fine? like they created a plot in the middle of the show and then threw it away...

Don't get me wrong I really loved the show overall but they could've added so much more depth to it... it's honestly just around the ending that bothered me this much I didn't expect myself to go off on a rant...

Cliff Dec 12 2021 1:49 pm Perfect ending..hyun joo alive and yi gang able to walk again is exactly the ending I want see…great story and good cast…now lets start shooting kingdom S3…

May Dec 12 2021 10:29 am I was looking for Hyun Jo to have more exposure or some kind of a grand exit. I missed him in the finale. Almost perfect..

Dewe Dec 12 2021 9:22 am Ultimately, Jirisan is a good drama that couldve been great but fell short. It had great acting and chemistry from a stellar cast combined with a good and well written story plot, but unfortunately was let down by (IMO) confusing directing style and flow especially in the early parts, making it feel like an incoherent show. Another thing is they couldve picked a higher tier actor for the killer to make them feel more threatening and deadly (understood the need to hide/ make them not too obvious tho)

YURie Dec 12 2021 9:18 am Perfect ending for me. Thank you actors, crews and Jirisan :)

Rot Dec 12 2021 8:51 am All being said, I like Jirisan GJ did it again, she is power

Gianna Jun number one Fans Dec 11 2021 10:14 am of course its kim sol

Happy98 Dec 11 2021 9:08 am I knew from the first time Sol was the culprit. He appeared so much in this drama even though his role doesn't give much impact. There's must be any reason for his appearance. He has to be an important role, because he need the kid role, his parents as head village that both die in mysterious condition, he knows well the mount and the history. How this drama gonna end? Let's see ≧∇≦

Belle Dec 11 2021 8:34 am I really like the.story. Ep 13 made me cry. Excited to watch the last 3 episodes. All the actors are great esp Gianna Jun and Ji-Hun Ju, I love them both. I hope to see them together in another tv series after this. They can also be a perfect pair in a series like Hotel de Luna.

Paul Edward Hipa Dec 11 2021 12:52 am Finally, it's coming to an end. One of the most boring kdrama I've watched. I only continue to watch this just because I started it. It's not your typical drama you would seek more.

J. Santos Dec 11 2021 12:20 am Im sure kim sol is the killer. Bcoz in episode 14 they have a glimpse of the killer that have a mole in the sideburns. And kim sol have a mole in the sideburns. I review it many many times

Yoon Mi Ra Dec 10 2021 10:16 am Can't wait for ep 15 n 16 . Hope hyun jo not die yet. Ost from Jin make up the mood .

SNLG Dec 10 2021 4:47 am @Hyperborea

Should be revenge plan on ex-villagers who "betrayed" or maybe killed the mayor's wife in 1991 (accidentally). This is my speculation so far.....we need to continue watching to see if most viewers' speculations are correct a not.

Hyperborea Dec 09 2021 1:46 pm whether it turns out what is the motive of the serial killers?

BlueCat Dec 08 2021 2:50 am Me too, I think Kim Sol is the main culprit.he has motivation(he is the son of the head village), he know the symbol that Hyun Jo and Yi kang use since Ep.1 (he the one who take a picture). And I remember that he is the only one who not went to some event because he afraid the spirit/ghost will go away from him. I doubt him since then.

Eneri Dec 07 2021 8:25 am For me, it's still Kim Sol who is the killer..maybe he is just commanding Wong Soon to do the evil deeds, but he is behind all of it. The 3 of them, Se Wook, Sol, and Wong Soon are accomplices...one of the best kdramas i have watched so far..Jun Ji Hyun as usual do not disappoint her audience. And Ju Ji Hoon's acting is also on-point. Kudos to everyone!

SNLG Dec 07 2021 2:04 am Kim Sol is the mastermind and main killer, Kim Woong Soon most likely to be his accomplice.

Azz Dec 07 2021 1:07 am @Azz I just rewatch for ep 13 & 14 and i saw that both kim sol's and heo jin ok had the same type phone's colour But i still curious that the victim is heo jin ok and sol as murderer, that mail just to obscure hyun jo

Azz Dec 06 2021 9:18 am I think both kim sol and cop was cooperate for each other Because, i think that kim sol not the victim but the killer, the phone that hyunjo saw has pink as colour but kim sol's wasn't ( i think the real victim is heo jin ok but she canceled to climb because she is sick) maybe they cooperate to obscure and made the ranger confuse who the main killer So, the tragedy at the bridge the body was too thin for cop's body And kim sol looked that he was hide something when hyunjo asked to him

But also dunno, who the main killer, is he kim sol or cop, i still confuse it 'coz both of them had gestures was suspicious for me to ignore ?

SNLG Dec 06 2021 8:06 am So now it's Kim Sol vs Kim Woong Soon. Who is the culprit or maybe both of them working together??

Ibu ibu jowo Dec 05 2021 6:01 pm Kim's body is too fat to manage Grandma Yigang's bus and the residents towards the bridge.

Kim Sol also has to be Pak Kim's accomplice to the police, like Sewook... considering that this murder would be difficult to do alone. after all kim sol's body shape is thinner, more suitable like the killer body that has been seen so far... wkwkwk lol but kim sol looks good, hope he's not the killer's accomplice..

I feel sorry for Yigang, who is likely to die, because it will be quite difficult to find the killer if Yigang is not used as bait to die.

SNLG Dec 05 2021 12:09 pm Waiting for a twist next week to show Hyun Jo still alive and waking up ??

ROSE Dec 05 2021 11:38 am Just hope kang hyun jo alive. Please dont die its not fair. Dont be sad ending please...

eron Dec 05 2021 11:00 am wow i have suspected that police for a long time because He always got small screen time for each episode......

Merry sitorus Dec 05 2021 10:24 am I hate if kang hyun jo die... he just meet soe yi gsng.. after all the summer accident.. when they meet in the blsck bridge valley and the soundtravk sang bts jin-yours- it was so sad and feeling missed.. its like he can see you but he cant reach you

jojo11 Dec 05 2021 5:30 am I think that police is the culprit, if not, the photographer

Cud est moi Dec 05 2021 4:25 am Umm i skip so many scenes, it feels boring, awkward and yes it looks unnatural.

Ibu ibu jowo Dec 05 2021 3:04 am if not rangers then who? @SNLG chairman kim is too old. He also saved Geuntak during a flood..

killer must be young kimsol is very possible, because he is young and comes from the black bridge.. it is also possible that he took revenge, maybe because the animal carcass case was the work of the residents there who wanted to migrate.. and he's after the geuntak because the cable car is the source of the problem..

but if the killer is one of the police or , what is the motive? maybe because he's a satanist and also a psychopath hahaha

Kimchi Dec 04 2021 7:15 pm @Rani rangers job was never been easy.they poured everything,sacrificed what they capable of doing for,always be mindful and vigilant by conducting forest monitoring and patrolling.Theyre not helpless,of course.and they were for sure didnt do a bad decisions.instead they always prioritize anything else before themselves.and about ur term saying drama queens etc their job are to rescue,and to make sure every single live are saved from the moment they were there at the mountain until they come down.If they couldn't make it to time and people r dying,they would feel guilty of it exactly.who wouldn't? Their responsibility are just so high.theyre the reason of someone living their normal live now.writer KEH does not hate anything while writing this.she does make it anything happened in the mountain looks realistic and encourages people to be more aware of nature.if she makes everyone go smooth then whats the point of writting about mountain

Jiri rangers Dec 04 2021 1:09 pm The wildfire scene was done very well , very impresdively detailed and well acted and captured. I stopped show at ep 8 as it was so fun that i wanted it to end and then binge watch. I dont care about killer and felt pissed off at fl for endangering rookie ranger by making her assist her knowing killer within her org could notice and kill the girl which did happen. Anyways, for me its best show of this year. I watched honetown cha and i wanted to erase it from my memory as i dislike it and i am so glad jirisan came and helped me. Its a fun show haters were ppl who perhaps are not fond of slow paced thrillers. There was no need to bad mouth this show.

Rani Dec 04 2021 11:06 am The biggest mystery in this drama is... Why does the writer hate Jirisan mountain rangers and people living there so much? She made the rangers look like helpless, incapable idiots always making bad decisions and acting like drama queens (pun intended) and not rescue teams. She killed so many Jirisan characters with no impunity or any real investigations, that we feel nothing for them because they are disposable and were killed for cliffhangers and higher ratings. What a dumb show that wasted such a great cast and views.

*-* Dec 04 2021 9:45 am I think its the policeman (Kim Woong-Soon). He looks sus.

SNLG Dec 03 2021 4:22 am The ex-chief Kim Gye-Hee?? Could he be the murderer? He has been with Commander Jo since 1991 BBV tragedy..........

Kdrama Addict Dec 02 2021 5:08 am The real murderer maybe someone who is supposedly dead but not dead and seeking revenge or smth....he or she is hiding at Black Bridge Village, and he/she created the "ghost lights" to keep people out of BBV. Just a wild guess..... :)

Zurako Dec 01 2021 7:36 am I hate the soundtrack, sound effect, and background sound. It feel awkward and unnatural. The film is pretty good but not that good, but still enjoyable.

Kimchi Dec 01 2021 4:34 am This drama is just getting better now and obviously are the cgi ..i feel bad for those who dropped this just bcs it had some issues with the cgi in the first half of the episode.the fire and the landslide scenes looks very realistic and tensing

Zura Dec 01 2021 1:16 am Thank you for the update on the casts. It helps in identifying each character especially in searching for the real killer.

SNLG Nov 29 2021 10:57 pm Gu Young is now taken out of my list of possible suspects.

)

SNLG Nov 29 2021 10:47 pm @RDR, yeah he is my first suspect ever since the early parts of the show. I think most people are suspecting Kim Sol and maybe him now too.

Not sure about the Team Leader though. Since he got a leg problem I guess the probability of him being the killer goes down although he always seems to be missing in some parts of the epi.

RDR Nov 29 2021 8:22 am I know we shouldnt guess and just enjoy the plot goes but I can't help! And I ran out of stock of suspects ?? all my guest was wrong (i was really sure bout my guess last week haha). Only the last person that is suspicious is the police officer Kim Woong Soon. Maybe he's related to to Kim Nam Sik the dead ranger (same Kim family name) and the actor is too suspicious to play only small screen time until these 12 episodes ?

Kdrama Addict Nov 29 2021 2:12 am @Ibu ibu jowo, the dead ranger in 1995 flood writing the log book, his son is Hyun Jo's junior soldier named Hyun Soo or something like that who died in 2018 (went missing later found dead - poisoned by the killer).....yeah I wondering who are the two children of the elderly couple who also died in the 1995 flood (they left some last words for them in the log book).

Now we have Black-Gloves-Of-Doom !!!

Ibu ibu jowo Nov 29 2021 1:47 am The Killer Is The Black Glove...Lol

I give up on guessing because the plot goes back and forth.. evidence will only be explained when episode 14 or even in the last episode..wkwk

maybe the killer is the son of the 1995 victim? old climbers call their children won sik and won jae. Who are they?

and also the dead ranger named kim nam sik. who is his son? maybe kim the cop? or maybe another kim.......hahaa they can change names easily.

yeeaaa for the writer, whoever the killer is please give the best plot.

kimchi Nov 28 2021 6:58 pm @Fanabouttobeanaircond he has some illness in his leg in 2019 that requires him to take surgery but its not an injury or sorta

Fanabouttobeanaircond Nov 28 2021 11:34 am Can anyone tell me how did Ilhae injured his leg? I probably missed a scene somewhere, but i dont wanna rewatch them hahaah

latte Nov 28 2021 11:17 am The killer is definitely Kim Sol, the photographer in Episodes 1-3... He is one of the rangers.

cliff Nov 28 2021 4:09 am in my own analysis.., i think the killer is the kid left alone by his father who hung himself....anyone can just steal a ranger uniform..im just confuse how will he get back to his human body...

clang Nov 27 2021 4:43 am i think the killer is goo young

Capa Nov 27 2021 1:17 am In the 1970s there was a series called Nightstalker abt an investigative reporter who checks out strange happenings, normally involving the supernatural. In the episode "Spanish Moss Monster" a patient lies in coma but dreams abt a childhood tale monster which starts killing people in the real world while he lies asleep.

Something similar but more positive is occurring in Jirisan.

SNLG Nov 26 2021 5:40 am The writer seems to be keep throwing baits at us to make us suspect the various rangers.

Bubbles Nov 25 2021 11:01 am I like how both of the main characters are also in Kingdom

SNLG Nov 24 2021 10:38 pm @Dochi, it's not showed how she is related to the dead mayor. But I'm guessing that she may be a relative of his since she seems close to him on seeing that she was praying for him at the temple after so many years have passed. Maybe she is his sister or just another ex-villager of Black Bridge Village.

Dochi Nov 24 2021 4:06 pm Does anyone know how the missing woman in the red jacket was related to the Black Bridge Village mayor? When she was at the temple and she was praying, on the paper hanging from the lantern said his name. Did I miss something while watching ep 10?

Typical007 Nov 24 2021 2:22 am Spoiler.

It's a dumb move from Yi Gang. She knew there's murderer in the mountain yet she sent Da Won alone??!! What in the right mind???

Ibu ibu jowo Nov 23 2021 7:31 pm SPOILER FROM MY IMAGINATION. (in the film there must be a big character who is a suspect) so the killer is probably Jung Goo Young. I saw a scene of shaking hands while looking for dawons, like the hands of a killer..?

maybe JGY killed someone else while the dojin was on leave, so he wouldn't be suspected.

Dojin continues to patrol while on leave and encounters Dawon. maybe the dojin suspects something or already knows the culprit. The Dojin there is just trying to prevent that crime from happening again...

the scene for episode 11 maybe kim sol will actually be killed by JGY.

okay I can't wait for episode 11

Pimil Nov 23 2021 7:20 pm Spoiler

RDR@I also think Kim Gye Hee is main culprit. It made sense why he needed help of Lee Se Wook. But he retired after case of potato bomb so from that point he has time for his hobby and he can do it alone. I still suspicious of Kim Sol because he knows code (actually he taught Yi Gang and Hyun Jo) and he couldn't be sure that Rangers used it so it masquarede with Dawon's phone made sense. But he also can be after the killer because his fathers was killed by him. I wouldn't be suprise if both him and chef tried to stop real murderer.

BENCH Nov 23 2021 1:39 pm I have a feeling that the killing is for the reason of sacrifices for the evil spirits in the mountain or something that is connected to supernatural / ritual / Cults.

RDR Nov 23 2021 8:24 am SPOILER!!!

I think kim sol is the one who give yi gang the last signal pretending to be hyunjoo (and maybe killed da won or more people) But the mastermind is Kim Gye (comm. Jo's bestfriend who's really concern about mt. Jiri & nature) Commander Jo acting suspicious just because he's trying to cover up his bestfriend wrongdoings / kim sol because of the guilty feeling. And also, geum rye grandma was from the black village too (ep10 she is in the river taking water) and she's already killed in 2018/2019 yoghurt poisoning. Yang Geun tak (he is also killed in 2020 if I'm not mistaken when he's taking wrong way bcs of the yellow ribbon on illegal hiking track, that first case yigang found because of the signal hyunjoo sent & found already become skeleton) So maybe they're killing people who is evil / make damage to mt jiri like revenge Sorry for bad english ?

Ibu ibu jowo Nov 23 2021 4:56 am (in the film there must be a big character who is a suspect) so the killer is probably Jung Gu Young. I saw the scene of shaking hands while looking for dawons, like the hands of the killer..

maybe JGY killed someone else while the dojin was on leave, so he wouldn't be suspected.

Dojin continues to patrol while on leave and encounters Dawon. maybe the dojin suspects something or already knows the culprit. The Dojin there is just trying to prevent that crime from happening again...

the scene for episode 11 maybe kim sol will actually be killed by JGY. (yes, although there is a possibility that kimsol could be a suspect because he feels he is a mountain protector)

SNLG Nov 22 2021 10:26 pm @Azz, all along I never suspect commander Jo becos of yes, this is a mystery drama, why would they show a so-called culprit so early in the series? I know that he is definitely a big red herring....

Please see the cast list for Black Bridge Village above, the kid at BBV is really named as Kim Sol, so we can safely confirmed that he is the kid whose parents die at BBV (i.e. the mayor's orphan son)...so I think he is back for revenge, unless there is more hidden twist later on (e.g. a mixed up identity or whatsoever etc).

SNLG Nov 22 2021 10:20 pm If Kim Sol is really the culprit, I wonder if Commander Jo knows about this? maybe he is covering up Kim Sol due to guilt (cannot save his mother in time, villagers all left becos of the cable car project and then his depressed father hanged himself). Either he is covering up for him or is investigating on the serial murders secretly because he seems to be hiding something.

Azz Nov 22 2021 8:34 am This the first time i write my comment here, hope my writing can be understandable by ppl

Firstly, i suspect jo dae jin. But it so strange that how can a villain shown at the early episode, so i deleted him from my suspect

Then, when i watch the 10th ep and the previous from 11th ep, i suspect kim sol as villain

Based on early episode that kim sol is who explain to hyun jo and yi gang 'bout the sign He was the one who knows the meaning of the sign, and the previous of 11th ep from what hyun jo's sight refer to kim sol when he use his gloves

Also, the family name 'kim' i curious, is he the kid from the kim gyu yeoung who died in 1991, (he said to hyun jo, that the lefted village was his hometown)

But, i think it's too early to conclude the villain I think there is a possibality if kim sol has a partner from ranger, maybe jang gu young (i remember that police university the suspect was unexpected) so, i just wait the next ep to know the next story

Moi Nov 22 2021 6:55 am I think Kim Sol os the killer. He is framing up Jo Dae Jin because he failed to save his mom before and also caused depression of his father killing himself.

RamenLover Nov 22 2021 3:34 am For those commenting about the Samsung Fold phone held by Seo Yi-Gang... the first generation Samsung Galaxy Fold phone came out in 2019, so totally plausible she would have one in 2019.

kimchi Nov 22 2021 2:43 am @Shie thats my point was it already released in 2019?

SNLG Nov 22 2021 12:14 am @Shie, she was using the same phone for the two different timelines right?

upi Nov 21 2021 10:45 pm it's between Jeong GuYeong and Kim Seol.. i knew it.! Kim Seol.!

i really hope it's not Jeong GuYeong, though, but the preview made me beware.. and i'm sure Kim Seol will have more screen time.. i can't wait..

Shie Nov 21 2021 6:59 pm 2019 Yi-gang is using Smasung fold already ?

Pimil Nov 21 2021 12:01 pm Cop or Kim Sol. Cop is suspicious because he has small role for this well known supporting actor. But the most suspicious is Kim Sol because he knew code but didn't know for what they use it. Murderer left her phone somewhere else to observe what Rangers would do. This way he confirmed that they use code to find his victims. So all people who heard about strange sigma in the mountain from Yi Gang are cleared from suspicion (chef and Goo Young).

Tai Nov 21 2021 11:46 am In episode 9 when they were searching for Lee Da Won why were they using swastika symbols on the map? I understand it may have a different meaning but it still was a little jarring to see.

fightstar Nov 21 2021 11:04 am JGY is the killer

Kdrama fan Nov 21 2021 11:00 am @genor, you mean Kim Sol?

genor Nov 21 2021 8:31 am I think the killer is the cameraman?

Anxhi Nov 20 2021 3:38 pm I dont think dae-jin is the killer He could be involved like maybe an accomplice but the plot would be very easy and become boring if the killer is actually him especially since the drama has 16 episodes. I also had my suspicion on the police officer like he could be involved as well Also what happened with Park ll-hae why havent we seen him in the future

Kdrama Addict Nov 19 2021 2:17 am @ Boo, I advised you to rewatch the previous episodes again, it's Not confusing for the two timelines at all.

It is not shown in detail (yet) what had happened to them that made the two leads end up like that in current timeline of 2020 to 2021....we need to continue watching this show to know exactly what happened. But I guess it's the killer who wants to kill them off because they were spoiling his plans to spree kill the people at Jirisan. They were trying to stop him from killing although they do not know who the killer is.....

SNLG Nov 19 2021 1:58 am @C, are you sure that they are sisters? "Lee" is a very common family name in Korea.

SNLG Nov 19 2021 1:56 am @Soon, I strongly feel that chief Jo Dae-Jin is a red herring and who knows maybe the ending scene of epi 8 (cliffhanger of "killer" chasing after Da Won) is also a misleading one....maybe the real culprit isn't any of the rangers.

Boo Nov 18 2021 12:06 pm I hate when they go to future and past Im confused LOL how did she get paralyzed and how is he in hospital? I dont want him to die or a ghost lol

Fatrickstar Nov 18 2021 9:14 am @sleeplesseyeball Me to, i think Kang Sol is the murderer.

C Nov 18 2021 6:31 am Da Won Is Yang Sun's Sister!! same surname also. something must have happened to yang sung and also a few of their rangers and da won prob came to find out. Also I don't think dong il character is evil, he is just getting rid of the things murderer put to decrease deaths hopefully? I'm not sure

But love the story line and castsss editing and all that is not great but the story is more important!! Good job to them at least they got chemistry can act not like other dramas airing at the moment.. iykyk keke

Kdrama Addict Nov 18 2021 2:54 am The wild fire at Jirisan is well done at epi 8 ! An intense epi ended with a cliffhanger that made we viewers to wait for about a week for the continuation of the cliffhanger at epi 9 ! Jirisan team fighting !!

CV Nov 17 2021 10:43 am I know the CGI and the BGM are BAD, but the Story is GOOD. Keep it up!! Can't wait for the next eps!!

Soon Nov 17 2021 6:24 am Totally agree with comments here that Jirisan is actually very promising. But beside the bad cinematography and CGI, I find this drama provide some unimportant side-stories like Yi-Gang's love story and Bidam Team's competition moments. It was a bit annoying that the writer made Dae-Jin very suspicious from the very first episodes but the hint about the culprit was put on the end pf Ep 8. I'm still enjoying it, of course, even though I feel the comedy is somewhat out of tune I still laughed hard haha.

Kim Eun-Hee-nim, please don't make Hyun Jo's story even sadder, he is already a poor guy here //sob//

Jiri rangers Nov 16 2021 2:19 pm At ep 6 im thoroughly enjoying it guys. There are some foolish things but aside of those its vvvv fun show. In first ep 1 camera work was somewhat bad cause they shot some very diff terrain scenes and didnt hire very trained ppl to capture those hard scenes but after that it got better and better from ep 2 onwards. I like such shows. Also this theme has massive potential, a 2nd season for this drama or a new drama with same mountain terrain theme should be made with a new and enhanced storyline. Scenries are lovely.

gedy Nov 16 2021 1:49 pm @Lee, no is not younger sister. The person who texted Hyun Jo was someone named Sarang. Go min si name here is Da won.

sleeplesseyeballs Nov 16 2021 6:57 am This Might Be A Suspicion That Anyone Doesn't Want To Know Hahahahaha

I will get back here if my hunch is wrong! But I think Kim Sol(the smart mountain historian(don't really know his job position)) is the murderer! He basically knows all the things about the mountain. And even his job is all around the place if ever. Plus I think that Dae-Jin is also doing something out of the ordinary like he like to mislead illegal hikers... or he's also a accomplice/or related to Kim Sol(or maybe he's just doing something nice to stop people from going to the mountain alone lol)

Lee Nov 16 2021 6:40 am I think Go Min-Si's character in here is Kang Hyun-Jo's baby sister. I remember in flashback christmas time, someone texted Kang Hyun-Jo but he wasn't able to meet up with that someone because he got tied up at work.

Because I dont think they will just put Go Min-Si's character in there for nothing. She's probably there to know more about his brother's situation. She's just playing along.. because she wanted to know the truth about his brother's situation.

DeSe Nov 15 2021 8:08 pm If you all are confused and don't know how to differ 2018 & 2020 timeline, just look at the Aspect Ratio. If it is full-screen, it means it is present (2020), if it's not full-screen, then it's in the past (2018).

karen Nov 15 2021 4:41 pm jirisan sceneries are just breath-taking, its so beautiful and stunning

Joe Nov 15 2021 8:54 am This drama is soooo good Sure there was a lack in CGI, which are not good, but not that bad Storywise, this drama is really intriguing. Now that 2018 TL and 2020 TL is getting closer, I expect the way they reveal main culprit to be full of surprise

I really like Go Min Si, but I hope she gets bigger role other than this (cough eps 8)

huh Nov 15 2021 7:31 am This drama is actually very promising, I've been an avid kdrama watcher and the plot and premise of Jirisan is unique. I don't think there are other kdramas that features stories of mountain rangers. Also, I'm very curious about the mystery behind Kang Hyun-Jo and his abilities. I also did not expect the mystery-supernatural concept but I do find it interesting so far. A person blessed with unique abilities but his soul is cursed to be trapped in the mountain for a long time-- sounds very sad and compelling.

SNLG Nov 15 2021 3:28 am There are only two timelines. One is the past 2018 - 2019, the other is the present timeline 2020 - 2021 in which FL is now wheelchair bound and ML is comatosed in hospital. There's nothing confusing about the timelines. The only thing we don't know is how their accident on the snowy Jirisan happened in year 2019 and who is the main murderer.

Kimchi Nov 15 2021 2:31 am The cgi goes really good this time

Jiri rangers Nov 14 2021 11:53 pm Watched first 2 episodes and i can understand complaints on flashbacks i perdonally didnt find them hard as i already knrw from complaints that there are flashbacks and i will have to be attentive of them but most viewers watch shows to get entertained and not to rack brains on figuring out mere timelines, so i can understand others frustration. But for me i like the show specially views and heights.

But i dont like go minsis acting here. She was a good actress ,what happened in jirisan?

JuJiTsu Nov 14 2021 11:24 pm It's an excellent drama!

People are complaining about bad CGI, and confused about the flashback thing... That's what you called "the art of storytelling" and flashback has a big part of the story! This is show is not for shallow-minded people who only care for CGI.

Kdrama fan Nov 14 2021 11:06 pm Cliffhanger at end of epi 8 will literally kill us! Hahahahah !

Getting so exciting and seems we are nearing the truth !!

sunny_day Nov 14 2021 9:51 pm flashbacks are part of the story. maybe some people are just so curious that they are now complaining about the flashbacks Hahahaha.

excited for the next episode. i hope they will reveal the murderer's face now. is it gooyoung? why is he so mad in the preview. or maybe the reporter. I dont think its the chief. he cares too much for yi gang. also, where is il hae and yang sun in year 2020?

Khat Nov 14 2021 11:27 am Imo 9/10!! I love it its good. Im a kdrama addict since 2013 and still think this drama has a good storyline. Recomended.

DeSe Nov 14 2021 8:55 am Does anyone know the song in episode8 ending? Thanks in advance!

ry Nov 14 2021 8:39 am Whats the song at the end of episode 8? It played awhile back when yigang's parents died and it played again at the ending credits

clamchowder Nov 14 2021 4:14 am This drama is the best, the storyline is gripping! Episode 1 may seem abit boring due to its introductory nature but ep 2 onwards.. couldnt ask for more!!

kdramafan Nov 14 2021 2:30 am last episode 7 was sooo goood!! .. sigh have to wait till tomorrow now.

Dutchess Nov 13 2021 11:29 pm FYI, too much flashbacks is so Distracting. I'm a fan of Jun Ji hyun though, but... (lips sealed)

@G Nov 13 2021 9:29 am it's actually BTS' jin ost - yours

American pine nut Nov 12 2021 7:46 pm Its a drama made to promote a gov dept so it will be boring and filled with tropes like police force etc shows. The cinematography could have been better. I wanted to watch it for mountains and even with given camerawork i am liking it though i just finished first episode. Theres lot of room for improvement in camerawork but still whatever mountain coverage has been done i like it. I like all bird eye shots, rain etc. People criticized this show went too extreme. Uts enjoyable if you like sceneries. One point i agree on is direction is very poor. Hiring a better director might have helped. This sort of show shud be made by netflix as they plug in huge budget to make shows look flawless.

All in all due 7/10 to this show. Ppl shudnt drop so much hate as shooting on mountains is hard as well.

G Nov 12 2021 6:31 pm @taemokoey its probly paul kim's ost, not sure but the title is "yours"

Huali Nov 12 2021 2:14 pm I love this drama. The storyline is actually good, but for some reasons I feel the director does not do a good job for this drama.

intania Nov 12 2021 1:48 pm Maybe this drama has a slow plot. That's why people keep criticizing (instead of CGI things)

Sam ID Nov 10 2021 12:45 pm For those of you who say that the storytelling of this drama is bad, confused with the timeline, I feel sorry for your brains, maybe you should watch Teletubbies instead.

This drama is very impressive, cinematography, coloring, background music, all bring the audience into a spooky and anxious atmosphere.

taemokokey Nov 09 2021 8:12 pm what is the title of the songs played on Episode 6? most especially the ending with Jung Goo-Young and Lee Yang-Sun finally going on a date?

Syasya Nov 09 2021 3:14 am It's a good drama for me. Can't wait for next episode. Those who love adventurous genre should watch this.

Patricia Nov 09 2021 2:52 am Poor story. Only episode 1 was promising. Watching just because of the cast.

Evelyne Nov 08 2021 10:02 am Excellent! Can’t wait for next coming episodes

Aiat Nov 08 2021 8:52 am Same as DOTS, the drama is successful only because of the main lead!! I can't watch it, the storyline is boring and lame.. Usually Gianna jun choices of drama is successful, I'm surprised she accepted this role.

Jil Nov 08 2021 8:12 am Watching because of the cast but i have to say the story is a bit bland-but still i will continue watching.

And oh Son Suk-Ku appearance in ep 6 was also great.

Btw, acting of cast here is superv too its just that there are really missing in story itself.

xiao Nov 08 2021 12:42 am This Drama Is So Good, would totally recommend. yall were just too used to those "typical" kdrama plot and genre thats why youre not appreciating this masterpiece lmao. this is a must watch everyone, it is interesting.

Ebony Nov 07 2021 5:59 pm Acting A+. Script D. Over done produce placement F-

Kdrama fan Nov 07 2021 8:52 am FL only trusted the newbie gal cos she was not there 1-2 years ago so she should not be the suspect. FL is suspecting one of her seniors to be the culprit.

Anyone suspect the police station cop? The one who is 'overly concerned' about newbie ranger guy Hyun Joo and keep asking about how is he ?? At first I thought he might be interested in Yi Gang so he is being concerned but now I start to think otherwise.

M Nov 07 2021 8:39 am I'm enjoying this series so far. Story is pretty interesting, FL and ML are acting powerhouse and don't disappoint, love the scenery of Jirisan, and Go Minsi is so cute! Ost is all over the place though... Jin's my bias and his song Yours is sung very beautifully but I personally think Kim Jong Wan's Falling fits the vibe of the drama better.

JJ Nov 06 2021 11:17 pm After five episodes, I'm still disappointed with the story-telling, and the entire package. It has sparks of brilliance, but Homecha set such a high bar that star-studded Jirisan has failed to match.

It shows that even a multi-million dollar production is no match for robust story-telling. Seems like the writer should continue writing on Zombie series.

Lol Nov 06 2021 10:58 am Haha why do people expect the show to be “believable” in the first place. The writer previous dramas are literally about zombies and signal where the leads communicate from different timelines.

Aab Nov 06 2021 10:56 am This is really interesting!!! I had goosebumps after watching the episode 5, I love mystery kind of series/drama. Some of you don’t appreciate it cause it is not realistic, and that’s the reason why it makes more interesting and unique! It’s not required that all series had to be realistic, I find it boring if all drama series are related to real life. :))))) Let’s give this series a chance to prove that it is worth to watch <3 Also, I love Ju Ji-hoon since Princess hours, and Jun Ji hyun remember she is the highest Korean paid actress she will not accept this if the story plot is not amazing. ;)

romi Nov 06 2021 9:52 am just I like it, I want to see more chapters to see how the story progresses, I also want to hear the ost

MX Nov 05 2021 6:49 pm This drama is actually pretty good. Idk why people are so confused by the time lapse and purpose of the ghost. I actually like the plot and think this drama is unique - I have never personally watched a kdrama that is set in the forest with park rangers. I don’t anticipate a lot of romantic scenes but I can really sense the chemistry between the two mains. I think the reason people don’t like the drama so far is cause there’s lots of unknown and uncertainties, so it spins around a lot. But this just means that this drama is prob gonna be jam packed with lots of climaxes. I’m really looking forward to episode 5!

Kdrama fan Nov 05 2021 12:21 am This is not the first time I've watched spirits went out of the comatosed bodies to 'live as usual'. But hope that the ML's screentime won't be cut down too much since he is in coma at the hospital and they hardly show his face as a "ghost".

sun Nov 04 2021 6:31 pm I'm enjoying this drama a lot, the cast is amazing and the mystery makes me want to keep going. Idk why there's so many people getting confused with the timeline, it just goes back and forth between 2018 and 2020 and the dynamics are very different. Maybe just pay more attention or watch something lighter.

SNLG Nov 04 2021 6:57 am So his spirit went out of his comatosed body and he went roaming Mount Jiri and placed the signs to inform lead gal on the upcoming deaths/accidents to inform her to go save these people ?

Kdrama fan Nov 03 2021 1:06 pm Wow I'm done with epi 2 and the time skip to and fro 2018 and 2020 is actually done nicely. I'm waiting and wishing for a twist that the lead gal has actually already recovered from her handicap. Lol.

It seems like somebody (serial killer prefers killing people on high ground?) is killing people/hikers at Jirisan. He put out yellow ribbons to make them lost their way on purpose. I think the chief is only a red herring and he might not be the culprit or accomplice?? I don't think the culprit would be revealed so soon.

s Nov 03 2021 12:17 am @Betrayed now what is believable about a half-alive ghost who can move twigs and can see the future? just enjoy the story it doesn't need to be realistic

Koki Nov 02 2021 7:06 pm I enjoy the drama I like mistery Crime Thats my genre

Kat Nov 02 2021 9:40 am Hmm.. This is the first time I personally think that the flashbacks are super useful when done in this drama. Well....I've literally hated shows with lots of flashbacks to confuse people on the timeline and missed out indicative clues! Had to binge watch all 4 episodes today as it is so good, keeping one in suspence at the end of each episode. And let me ymake a daring guess... (is this considered as spoiler? ?) Kang Hyun-Jo will either wake up loosing his supernatural power or end up dead(which I will hate). Happy watching! Hwaiting, team Jirisan!

Kirisong Nov 02 2021 9:12 am The storyline is slow and boring. Script writing does not use imagination and the connection of each scene. The writer tried to make the story look mysterious and have a soul to make it look frightening but when you look at it, it doesn't imply that the story is worth following. Boring indeed.

Betrayed Nov 02 2021 7:23 am Literally un believable af

Ran Nov 02 2021 5:23 am Apparently this drama have so many flashbacks, back-forward plot. Like, they put in every scene, I don’t really like this kind of plot, distracted my concentration, lol.

Kdrama fan Nov 02 2021 4:04 am Wow, high viewership rating for first 2 episodes for a tvN cable series....I guess the plot is refreshing to viewers that made them curious for this show :)

AJ An Nov 01 2021 11:41 pm Intresting drama. Mt Jiri scenic background is really a treat, thank you.

Lin Nov 01 2021 11:58 am Am I the only one who understands nothing lol? I'm on episode 3 maybe I will keep watching.

Joy Nov 01 2021 8:28 am I already love this drama. The first and second episodes was kinda confusing for me and i thought it was just a plain action drama but then the following episodes already gave the thrill that im looking for. Hoping that it continue that way, dont want this drama to be boring in the following episodes?

Linda Oct 31 2021 9:27 pm If you like mystery and thriller series. I recommend this drama. It present something different because you will see beautiful views of mount Jiri. Good luck Jirisan series Team.

Sitisii Oct 31 2021 5:28 pm For me it's very amazing drama...even before I'm not understand but in ep4 I can enjoy this horror/thriller drama..it's ok what others say, I'll kepp watching it

Paul Edward Hipa Oct 31 2021 2:57 pm Kinda boring. I'm on episode 4. Let's see if I will watch this 'til the end.

Dwed Oct 31 2021 7:19 am i would still continue watching this due to the quality of the cast - but i have to admit that by the 4th episode, the rather questionable VFX and the panoramic PSA shots of mountains out of nowhere are starting to annoy me

Eve Oct 31 2021 2:50 am Amazing Storyline

Must Watch

Mariel Oct 30 2021 4:48 pm Okay. This one is good. Though, the first two episodes I thought it was just a usual action drama but I didn’t expect this to be horror/thriller which makes it more exciting. I’m still confused with the timelines but I’m loving this drama.

pikachu Oct 30 2021 1:48 pm Im enjoying this drama. The hiking theme, the intense moments of finding the missing Ones are exciting. However, the constant switching back & forth between 2018 and 2020 does made me dizzy while watching. Is that what we call Poor editing? But I'll keep watching?, and Go minsi, despite holding a supporting role here, I think she is the perfect person to take on the role of cute, innocent rookie ranger?

Ami Oct 30 2021 6:50 am I enjoyed this drama already. My hobby is hiking, and this drama can capture the eerie of the mountain. Mountain its not always beautiful, not always calming, but it also has some eerie feeling sometimes.

But I also think the first ep its too much and too exaggerating. Especially, the stone falling moments. But this drama is still very enjoyable and I look forward for the next eps

I think tvN has strategy to shuffle the theme of weekend drama... Sometimes its comedy and warm, sometimes its thriller and revenge

Kae Oct 30 2021 6:50 am I like the episodes so far. The eps were able to capture my interest since I'm in a mystery mood. Also coming from The Red Restaurant List where there's a camping car hobby so this one's just right up my alley.

iCe Oct 29 2021 9:48 am I can't keep focus for the whole episode. Boring plot with plain acting. Not worth watching even if you have nothing to watch

Lyan Oct 29 2021 7:57 am Too much expectation is hurt huhuT.T

Rut119 Oct 29 2021 7:10 am Ep1 officer running on the mountain ? officer on duty without proper gear ? officer don' t know how to deal with the problem ? Are you sure this show was written by the good writer? cause many line sounds stupid to me. Don't need to be that over acting but realistic is the must . alright i will hang in there for a while.

Cecily K. Oct 28 2021 7:04 pm CGI aside, this drama has worse problems: horrible editing mixed with hit-and-miss directing (the only thing that makes me believe this is from the same director as Mr. Sunshine is the scenery/landscape shots). That scene where Ju Ji Hoon first arrived and a helicopter passed by… No words…

The plot, however, is engaging. It’s getting better in episode 2. Because this is from the same writer, it gives a little Signal vibe (and I love it). I hope they won’t fail us with this one good aspect left

Janet McGovern Oct 28 2021 6:37 pm Wow. Excellent first episode. Looking forward to the Sunday edition.

Diz Oct 28 2021 6:22 pm Honestly, I can't even tell if the CGI is bad because the quality of the video on IQIYI VIP is SOOOO terrible quality upload that I can't even tell what the hell is going on during action scenes.

Guess Oct 27 2021 9:44 pm I dont get the hate for the show. To each their own iguess

SOLAR Oct 27 2021 4:09 pm I wished they partnered with Netflix on this one.

Eleph Oct 27 2021 9:57 am too high expectation , more dissappointed you have.. look so false

Jiri Poo Oct 26 2021 9:14 pm Why did the producer try to make it awkward and doubtful story?? And the CG is so suck. The picture of nature should be very beautiful but what we saw was very vague and non professional. It's very discomfort and not exciting enough.

lesgobaybeh Oct 26 2021 8:13 pm I'm lil bit confused with the time set on ep 1, so the first plot is a past and the 2020 is now?

myeah Oct 25 2021 11:24 pm lee eung-bok ?

Korean anjing Oct 25 2021 6:46 pm If u don't want to watch this cgi,forget it and then watch home town cok cok cok.

Jean Oct 24 2021 7:02 pm Jo Han Chul is one busy man right after Vincenzo! I think he's been working nonstop since then. Good for him!

Love the first episode! It was sort of anime-like in the part where they found the boy, and a funky song played and clips of mountainous scenery was flashed. Lol

Jiana Oct 24 2021 5:13 pm They were searching for the boy, and yet not once did they call out his name. Or did they think it's useless because of the storm?

Caryl Oct 24 2021 10:08 am I think Go Min Si's character is like Lee Je Hoon's character in Signal. Something like a connector of the two characters.

Go Min-SImp Oct 24 2021 8:57 am Go Min-Si so cuteee!!! Step on me please

Btw, it looks like they are building chemistry for The Kingdom Season 3, Kim Eun-Hee must be feel pleased working with those two.

Good luck

magnolia Oct 24 2021 8:16 am Jo Han Chul is book and busy after Vincenzo. Love to see a supporting actor rising up

Albert Oct 24 2021 4:01 am Wow jo han cul shine after become a villain in vicenzo,i really like his act

Piet Oct 24 2021 2:38 am Sung Dong Il, Oh Jung Se, Jo Han Chul, Kim Young Ok... aside from the great lead actors, this series has the best people in the supporting role line... I'm just about to watch the 1st episode but reading the line up, couldn't be more excited!

prettyknow8 Oct 23 2021 7:32 pm Ju Ji-Hoon is a very good actor.

Risaaaa Oct 23 2021 5:46 pm The drama is so good!! Can't wait to see the next episode

Sten Oct 23 2021 2:08 pm It's refreshing to see well done series and good acting comes together, high budget not always means we'll done...so whole conspect is great and sleek, can't wait for next episode. Worth to look.

Lopa Raman Oct 23 2021 11:46 am it's only the first episode and I am thrilled to see their acting and the scenes... oh my god it's awesome as I had expected it to be... eagerly waiting for the mystery to solve... Jun Ji Hyun was my favourite and will always be my favourite...

Encarlisa Serdiñola Oct 23 2021 10:35 am Wow ..a highly budget ..full calibre casts awesome plot....what .more can you ask.......

Ferooz ?? Oct 23 2021 5:01 am Finally. The most awaited series of the year. My most favorite actress. So happy to see you again.

Noona Oct 21 2021 1:28 pm Can't wait for Jin(BTS) OST!!!!!

Blooms Oct 17 2021 6:11 pm can't wait for see Oh Jungse oops and Sung Dongil ajussi hope they'll be good chara~~~

Dudu mi me mu Oct 17 2021 5:34 am Gianna unni, we are waiting for youuuuu. Fightinggg ☺️

blckswn Oct 15 2021 6:59 am My most anticipating drama of this year!

Amber Tunio Oct 14 2021 5:48 am both from kingdom <333

Kimchi Oct 14 2021 12:17 am @Ory the girl who played bora in hccc will also starred here!

Ory Oct 13 2021 1:35 pm This drama takes over tvN's time slot previously occupied by "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha" so that Gamri grandma and Yuri's father moved from Gongjin to Haedong. Lol. :D

Not Telling You Oct 12 2021 8:35 am I would say part of the idea was taken from "Those Who Wish Me Dead" starring Angelina Jolie.

With A list star Gianna Jun......who completed a successful Netflix "Kingdom: Ashin of the North", she is definitely in high demand for action drama. She won't disappoint her fans for sure! Looking forward to this drama!

Shairli Oct 09 2021 7:23 am Both are great actors, Ju Ji Hyun & Ju Ji Hoon... rooting for them! Cant wait!

L Oct 03 2021 10:45 am Our queen is back. Waiting for Jun Ji Hyun ♥️

suu Jun 18 2021 7:12 am go min si <3 i really wanna see her as lead role but she rocks every character whether its side. she portrays them so well

Orange Apr 17 2021 3:38 am Ju Ji Hoon and Jun Ji Hyun! Sounds like a tongue twister! I like these actors! Hope writers will make this a great story! Fighting! :)

012do0 Mar 23 2021 2:10 am I cant wait for them! Both are my favorite k actor. Their acting skills are no jokes

Shairli Mar 13 2021 8:34 pm When will this be aired? Cant wait! Both are superb actors.

heyho Feb 27 2021 5:31 pm highly anticipated especially for kingdom series fans. decided to write a comment after read the news about kim doyeon casted as young jun jihyun!!! im overly excited right now!!!

coney island Jan 09 2021 8:00 am second half of 2021 still a long way to go. i'm so excited for this one.

Pan Dec 16 2020 11:14 am Wow look at the names. Director, writer, and cast. They had at least work on one of my faves! Big anticipation!!!

FerooZ Nov 29 2020 10:16 am Queen Jun ji Hyun is back. Fighting love from Sri Lanka

Sassy Nov 14 2020 3:44 am Wowww..I guess this is like an interval before seeing them again in Kingdom 3.

blonded Nov 05 2020 11:42 pm the storyline seems very interesting and different, and i know for sure that the actors casted wont disappoint! will be looking forwatd to this!

jo Nov 02 2020 3:47 am cant wait for these 2 famous stars of skor!!!! hope ju ji hoon would still included in Kingdom 3.

Yurihan Oct 31 2020 3:29 pm Can't wait for this drama Of Jun Jihyun Im so exited im sure this will be the best drma of 2021 looking forward for this

junjihyunstan Oct 27 2020 2:12 pm cant wait for jun ji hyun's comeback!!!!! also love the cast so far!!

Izza Oct 22 2020 9:02 pm im a big fan of Ju Jihoon. looking forward for this drama. Fighting!

QueenJiHyun Oct 15 2020 9:15 am Jun Ji Hyun my Queen is back!

shingoon Oct 02 2020 3:10 am i'm so thirsty to see joo jihoon in romance dramas again he always giving different level of heart fluttering..but i don't think this drama will focus on romance consider it coming from writer of signal and kingdom

Genesis77 Sep 22 2020 4:16 pm This is going to be a good drama, because Sung Dong II (he plays comedy and seriously scary well), Ju Ji-hoon (he is always brillant) and Gianna Ju (as an actress her execution of her roles is always spot on).

Again, can't wait to see this drama.

Kim Na Na Sep 12 2020 6:42 pm I'm so happy for Ju Ji Hoon. He is so talented and can work with Jun Ji Hyun now! She is so lucky. Worked with so many of my fav co-stars.

Hermione Sep 06 2020 5:37 am It is gonna be an amazing series, it is so obvious. Can't wait to see Jun Ji Hyun, I missed you very much my dear ❤

Kiya Sep 06 2020 2:32 am Glad they took the offer! The plot looks interesting, not many drama cover up mountain/hiker story. Look forward into it!

I hope it's a sign that Jun Ji Hyun will have special appearance or smaller role in Kingdom season 3, because 2 femme fatale (Jun Ji Hyun & Bae Doona) is too much for a short Netflix series in my opinion.

Nomnom Sep 05 2020 11:13 pm Cmn guys! Don't judge yet...I think there's more to include in a plot and this two actor are both daebak! Sung dong il ahjussi too. Can't wait to see again!

April Sep 05 2020 3:10 pm You are the best Jun Ji Hyun ❤ I'm looking forward to see you in this series

speedy Sep 05 2020 11:43 am I don't watch any korean series lately but I will definitely watch this one as my beloved Jun Ji Hyun is coming back ❤

clark Sep 05 2020 10:17 am I have been waiting so long for your comeback Jun Ji Hyun, missed you so much❤❤

lisa Sep 05 2020 10:14 am Oh God I'm soo excited Jun Ji Hyun is back ❤ I missed you very much my queen saranghae❤

Hera Sep 04 2020 7:47 pm want to straighten out, from the start jirisan was not offered to psj. it was just a rumor, and an article about it was taken down hours later.

Zombie Sep 04 2020 8:07 am OMG . ... The Director, the writer, and the cast are perfect ... Daebak .....

Blacky Sep 04 2020 6:12 am Oh no Ju Hi Hoon :(

KDlover Sep 04 2020 4:05 am Oh God I'm soo excited Jun Ji Hyun is back ❤ I missed you very much my queen saranghae❤

Tammy Aug 12 2020 11:41 am Same. I was also looking forward to see Park Seo Joon alongside my queen Jun Ji Hyun. I was disappointed to find out that it didn't push through. Nevertheless, I am glad Ju Ji Hoon took the main role. I like him as well, and I'm sure he's also a good fit for Jun Ji Hyun. I think this will be a serious, and very interesting drama. I simply can't wait!

IamLeyya Aug 02 2020 9:19 am Why? It was offered to Park Seo Joon, right? What happened?? Anyway, I love PSJ but I think it will be better if Gianna Jun's partner is the crown prince Ju Ji Hoon.

Lazy writer Jun 30 2020 5:33 am Finally not a Flower Boy being ML... Nice.
