Park Min Feb 05 2023 11:12 am Looks and feels like one of those old edgy OCN dramas. That ending is just... something....

Ravena May 21 2020 12:13 pm I watched the Japanese version which was released in 2007, and I can say much better than the Korean version. Rosa Kato & Shota Matsuda doing good work in that drama.

no name Apr 23 2015 6:05 am I like to watch Korean Drama because the culture is vivid. They serve all gods of their neighbors plus theirs. These gods made them drunkard, suicidal, and filthy. For example, they resist against the virus in their body by leaving their shoes out of the living area, but the virus brings the suitcase in the bedroom and put it on the bed. They r always cleaning the floor with a rag, which causes their hands to always have mold, because the mold brought by the suitcase is always on the floor and the mold is a fungus that mainly live on the hands. They live like roaches due to the latrines they have in their backyard and the vermin in the latrine live in their gut. So they behave like the vermin in the latrines in their backyard. They lie all the times and that is why the virus makes them drunkard in order to learn their secrets. That is why they say that "there is no secret". They stink because the viruses from the latrine make them eat fermented food like soy sauce, soy bean paste, soju, kimchi, and other rotten food. In addition, they eat sashimi or raw fish and live octopus, which cause their gum to house the microbes from these animals, so their teeth r crooked like the teeth of the fish and they walk like the octopus when it is out of water. The microbes or viruses from the raw food re-arrange their face so they came to look like these raw animals that they eat. It is sad seeing them drunk and it is weird that their parents teach them to drink, which indicates that the worm viruses control these people. So they cannot be trusted as you can see the vermin caused the korean zombies to eat even the blood, the tripes, and everything in the animals that they kill. You can see the monster unhidden in the korean people, while the monster is camouflaged in the christian people pretending to be "loving, virtuous, and kind". In the Koreans, nothing is camouflaged. The monsters from the latrines r in the open. And even when they r mourning, the viruses r the ones getting the attention and not the actual zombie. The food to honor the dead is dedicated to the virus and eaten by the vermin in the ground and there is a horror that is always present on the memorial food: the mold. The mold is as well on their body in specific area, no matter how beautiful a korean zombie is. It is really sad because I am watching my species zombifies by vermin living in latrines.

Lana Apr 19 2015 7:54 am Very nice drama and the two main actors look great together. I watched this one after finishing My heart twinkle twinkle, because I liked Jang Shin Young there and wanted to watch her other dramas.
