I started this show on Sunday evening and am already 2/3 of the way through. I'll be honest, I went into it expecting to be underwhelmed. But I was pleasantly surprised by the story lines and pace. Trailer and synopsis below.
Set in the near future, a high-rise apartment building has been newly constructed in the big city. The apartment building has residents from diverse backgrounds, but a new infectious disease breaks out. Because of the outbreak, the high-rise apartment is sealed off. The residents struggle to survive, while stricken with fear and distrust of others.
Yoon Sae-Bom (Han Hyo-Joo) is a member of a special police squad. She is decisive, determined, and does not easily get rattled. She is excited to move into her new apartment, but, as soon as moves there, she faces a criss.
Jung Yi-Hyun (Park Hyung-Sik) is a detective. He is smart and honest. For a long time, he has held romantic feelings for Yoon Sae-Bom. They graduated from the same high school. Jung Yi-Hyun struggles to protect Yoon Sae-Bom and other people.
Han Tae-Seok (Jo Woo-Jin) is a lieutenant colonel and belongs to the health service command. He holds a key on the infectious disease outbreak.
Han Tae-Seok is a character that is beautifully mysterious and complex. I have a lot of love and hate for him. Like, I get why he does the things he does but I don't approve of his methods. But I get it.
Yoon Sae-Bom and Jung Yi-Hyun are #relationshipgoals. They have each others backs unconditionally. He knows she's strong but where he can, he will protect her. And She lets him be him. Yoon Sae-Bom rarely ever questions what he's doing because she knows he's only got the well-being of everyone at the forefront of his mind. Their communication lines are always open so we don't waste time on stupid miscommunication issues.
Anyway, I got 4 more episodes to go out of this 12 episode series. Give it a try if blood zombies and open communication are what you feel a sudden craving for. Sidenote: you might get a mild complex if you get thirsty while watching the show. Just thought I would warn you.
