Amazing Cast !

I have mixed- feelings about’ The Silent Sea’ and it seems a lot of people on the platform shared likewise emotions.

On one hand I think that the storyline was intriguing and having read prior reviews I think that it was amazing that the director of the original film also decided to film this one.

I also loved the main cast. I’m familiar with our leads as if you begin to become immersed in Korean dramas then you become accustomed to these names and their involvement in their works.

However where my more critical views came through a few factors; the storyline and the filming styles and techniques .

The biggest problem I found with the storyline was that in theory it should’ve been impactful but I struggled to become enticed by the characters as their presence onscreen felt very controlled and enforced by the screenwriter rather than natural. This often resulted in characters feeling a bit boring onscreen.

My other peeve was that the series was really reliant on CGI. I don’t think this is always necessarily a bad thing entirely as after all it is a series set in space and the future but in all honesty the CGI wasn’t entirely the best. It wouldn’t be too bad perhaps if the series had attempted to present this more with real-life scenes but this often created a sort of trippy feel to scenes.
The ending wasn’t entirely bad per day but I did feel like it didn’t quite finish off the events of the storyline.

Not for me …

Goblin is a classic and it’s easy to see why it has gained popularity but this one wasn’t for me.
Strengths
Acting was strong and thought Yoo Na and Kim Dong Wook were absolute delights.
Kim Eun Sook really capitulated audiences
The romance chemistry was sweet
The filming settings were magical also but struggled to get away with the concept and age difference.

Loved the Korean mythology elements

Weaknesses
Slow paced
Age difference too great between leads - understandable after time skip but creepy beforehand
Too many tropes imao
