Gripping start, slippery finish
I'm not entirely sure where to begin because this drama left me with a whirlwind of mixed feelings. The first half was exhilarating, keeping me on the edge of my seat, but from episode 20 onward, it felt like everything started to unravel into a chaotic mess.
It’s as though the drama desperately wanted to inject more excitement with some unexpected plot twists, but unfortunately, they just didn’t hit the mark. Instead of adding depth, these twists only served to complicate the storyline, making it increasingly disjointed and hard to follow.
There were several aspects that really bothered me, but the worst offender was the depiction of the equipment in the control room. This was supposed to be a high-tech environment, where characters were dealing with the complexities of consciousness, the brain, and other advanced scientific concepts. Yet, the control room looked like it was cobbled together from a low-budget music or recording studio. It irked me to no end watching the characters randomly press and twist buttons, completely undermining the gravity of what they were supposed to be doing. It felt like a slap in the face to anyone expecting a serious portrayal of cutting-edge technology.
Another glaring issue was the sudden transfer of Chun Yu’s father’s consciousness to Uncle Lin. It made absolutely no sense—none at all. Sure, I get that it’s a sci-fi drama, but even within that genre, the reasoning they provided was absurdly weak. It felt like a lazy attempt to introduce a shocking twist, but without any solid foundation to back it up, it just came across as nonsensical.
It seems the writers were aiming for a dramatic revelation to explain the villain's motivations, but once again, it fell flat. The attempt at adding depth to the villain’s backstory was so poorly executed that it only highlighted the overall sloppiness of the writing.
By the time I hit episode 20, my patience had worn thin. I ended up watching everything at 2x speed, and even then, I found myself fast-forwarding through scenes that dragged on with no real purpose. It’s a shame because the drama started with so much potential, only to lose its way in such a disappointing manner.
