Tense OCN Drama Train with Yoon Shi Yoon and Kyung Soo Jin Grabs Me for Ride on its Dark Parallel Tracks

This past weekend it was a two-fer for me, with an emotional meal on the new episodes of It’s Okay to Not be Okay and then snacking as late night treat the OCN mystery parallel worlds drama Train. The first two episodes got 1.367% and 1.443% for the cable network best known for procedurals and gritty fare and Train continues the same quality output. Yoon Shi Yoon and Kyung Soo Jin are excellent right off the bat, he’s tormented and focused and she’s the same as both are dealing with the loss of their respective father’s on the same dark and stormy night when they were teens. It’s more than meets the eye and ripe for so much emotional torment already two episodes in, and then the end of episode 2 basically rips our collective guts out and then asks us to watch for another 10 episodes to see if some of the wrongs could be righted in that fantasy parallel worlds set up.

  • I heard there's only a total of 12 episodes (Go Soo's "Missing" is already scheduled for next month). It's bound to be quick.

  • Oh good to hear! I didn't get time to watch Train this weekend but I’ve been eagerly waiting for it and I’m so happy to hear that it’s delivering! Thanks for the heads up, can’t wait to watch it!

  • The first two episodes sucked me in as well. I'm glad it's only 12 episodes as that should hopefully help keep the writing tight.
