So I’ll keep shilling for Revenant until more people watch to enjoy this slow burn with me. Screenwriter Kim Eun Hee hit various base hits with Kingdom, Signal, 3 Days, Phantom, and Sign but her most recent drama before this was the highest profile and most problematic with Mount Jiri (Jirisan). So it’s a relief and treat to see her back in a new genre of true horror and with such tight writing pared with unparallel level of acting. The drama through episode four has shown hand that it’s not a horror where ghosts/spirits are evil per se but that the supernatural remains scary and dangerous but the greatest horrors is the darkness that can reside in a human. This drama isn’t as scary as I thought it would be and even better yet is genuinely a detective mystery which makes for great puzzle unraveling while balancing the episode case within a case elements. This gets me back into K-dramas full force so thank god for Kim Tae Ri and Oh Jung Se giving a masterclass in both acting and script selecting.
This drama was apparently in talks with C-actor Ding Yu Xi before his just aired…
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…

Love it. It’s so fresh and intriguing
I saw the comments on theqoo about this drama and knetz were saying the acting was bad for both leads and the writing was boring....and I was like WHAT??? I think they're just hating (The ratings are good and currently popular).
I love Taeri in this one, I found her acting in 2521 badly, but now she's proving her status as a once again reliable actress; Oh Jungse is really attractive in this character I don't know how to explain it, and the story is very interesting. The show is not scary; it is more about folklore and people, and I love it for that.
Sorry it is the number one drama on OTT...of course, unless someone wants to uplift their favourite idol drama
I'm also really enjoying Revenant! It has the same vibe as The guest and it's nice to have a HQ kdrama to follow again after a bunch of mediocre kdramas. That and See you in my 19th Life is making me really look forward to the weekends :)
I’m not into this genre but gave it a try because of Kim Taeri. It’s not scary as I initially thought and got me hooked at the very first episode, I was expecting that the actors are good but KTR surpassed my expectation by a mile, her acting is in another level in revenant.
I opened social media to discuss the plot and share the excitement, but what I found was people fighting over dramas and unhealthily promoting their favorites by talking bad about other dramas. Ugh. I currently have 5 dramas ongoing and gladly can enjoy them without worrying about ratings or top 10 positions.
