Unpopular opinion, i really liked this slice of life with an end of the world background. It's obviously not a massive action dystopia where the Earth gets destroyed (and the biggest mistake was probably to sell it as this) but you can't tell me there is nothing to keep here.

Chatacters are really interesting with deep struggles and emotions. They are well developed and complex. It's a philosophical show with a lot of themes portraying humanity and its duality. It questions power, religion, forces, family, relationships, loss, despair, love.

Construction is a bit ambitious (like the impossible heir) and I understand people can dislike when the storyline goes back and forth with different timelines and cuts but when the story makes sense and the acting is that good I personally find it ok. It's just different and I feel like ppl are too much used to do something else while watching so they can't handle changing povs.

I loved the girl soldier, the children, the relationships between ahin's and eunjin's character. It blends social constructions ( for example children behaving like adults bc they will never become one, marriage, pregnancy).

Love language and touch is this drama is BEYOND INCREDIBLE. I never saw such emotions pictured and it was heartbreaking (acting performance from the couple deserve an award). Once you detach from the apocalyptic movie you were expecting and if you focus on small things , you'll see there is a lot to take from this. The counting of days before the asteroid hit the ground is slow paced but I liked that it wasn't a story about a hero trying to save the world and escape his fate. Maybe they could have survived but the story is not about that.
There's a also a hard work both visually and musically. Ost are so good. From The last of us to The Leftovers, there's a beautiful story here about connection between human being.

One sad thing is that there are huge blanks in the story (we miss the whole yunsang's POV because of those cowards) so they probably had to fill in with length or side characters that can be boring from time to time BUT besides this i find the storyline makes sense and it's interesting unusual and beautiful.

I ache thinking of what they did with Yoo Ahin and that we won't see him anytime soon. But i'm also very surprised by the angle they chose here. The flashbacks show us a lot of the chaos that happened in the past and the greed of people which let the characters with big traumas. And we face their fear and surerending in the present. The last ep was very moving like others scenes throughout the show (the end of ep9 is so sad i could kms) The ending is questionable but overall this is an enjoyable story with impactful scenes. I hope some people will make their own mind and stop focusing on reviews and group effect
