Destruction (2021)

Yin and Yang story :)

"If you are lonely, act lonely. If things are hard, act like things are hard. Don’t act strong all the time, ok?”
- Myul Mong.

Do you hesitate to watch Doom at your service? Or you want to know it is worth watching or not?
As a fan of Fantasy-romance K-drama, I want to say your answer is: YES!
*Are you ready to feel butterflies by watching these cuties?*

In this drama, we have a doom and human relationship, Tak dong-Kyung is a kind, vibrant and lovely girl who suffers a lot in her life but she pretends everything is OK like before even when she heard she is gonna die! She smiles and pretended like she's going to live without any problem but deep in her heart she was disappointed .

Myul-mong is a doom that every step and every act he does make problems and damage, He's not alive and He's not dead. He's created to doom and punish every mean person, it's his responsibility!
He thinks it's not fair, a world full of humans is nonsense for him and he wants to destroy the world like it never exists!
And one day he listened to a wish: I want the end of the world!
That wish connects them together and He makes a deal with her. She must choose one of these two:
The person she likes more or saves the world?

This drama has a comedy genre too but as far as my concerned comedy isn't so matched for this drama. I think it is more on melodrama instead of comedy. I went to cry more instead of laughing...
But there were some humorous scenes that bring a smile to your lips. at the first, it was more fun and light but in the last episodes, it's become heart-wrenching.


And about romance, I fabulously like their chemistry :')
(ADORABLE COUPLE)
they are best for each other, they felt pain, loneliness and both see the cruel side of the world.
They are like Yin and Yong, black and white, opposite but fit together.
* oh my heart, kiss scenes were SWEET too*

their acting in this show is just FINE not the best of them... I personally think they have more ability as we saw in "the smile has left your eyes" and "strong woman Do Bong Soon"

In my opinion Dialogues and quotes can be better, sometimes the answer of characters instead of telling just even one world was silence!
Ok I know sometimes silence is the best answer but there were scenes in this drama that I was like: why she say nothing at this time? It was the best time to say a beautiful sentence can be lasting Forever!

* does it become boring?
No! "short and helpful :)"

Heartbreaking yet such a comforting show :)

A lot of people didn’t like it, but I certainly did. I liked everything about it. The characters, especially the main ones broke my heart all over again. They were so good written and the acting… just wow! The cast is perfect, amazingly written… cried multiple times. The second lead couple was great as well. I just loved their stories so so so much.
The ending satisfied me as well. Saw lots of reviews saying it’s the ending that ruined it but… they got the ending they deserved, and an ending, they wanted. I’m currently rewatching as well… would recommend :))

The title was clickbait

This drama failed to achieve the full potential of the title. The service rendered by the male lead fell far short of my expectations, perhaps I should not have had any then I would not have been so disappointed and become so unenthusiastic. The dialogue felt like a protracted philosophical roundabout that went nowhere. Perhaps I missed the essence of what they were trying to say.

I very quickly lost interest in the story of the main leads, but the other characters surrounding them I craved more. I skipped the majority of the scenes related to the male and female lead. I wanted to see how would the story of the 2nd male lead and female lead, developed, which was ok and I found more intriguing. Would they wouldn't they? That push-pull uncertainty is intriguing and had their story been given more depth, and time, It would have been great, but then it would have been a different film.

Can it get any worse?

Let me just say, this isn't what I expected. The whole series has no purpose, it's like the storyline got worse every second. I honestly don't know how to connect the storyline of the series. Also, the chemistry between the leads were really weak. They're great actors and actress but I can't remember when my heart flutters seeing them. I only stayed for Cha Joo Ik and only him. He deserved better!! I'm sorry but if Na Ji Na was having a hard time choosing between Joo Ik and the other guy well damn! Let me have Joo Ik then. Oh yeah, again how the hell did the female lead fall in love with doom? I mean it doesn't make any sense. It's more like he pity her because she doesn't have much time anymore. And oh my god they put all the cliche storyline in this series. Save your time because this series is not worth your time.

Could've used the screentime better

Overall the drama left me with good feelings, I like how it ended and that's what's most important to me.

However, I think the biggest drawback is how they didn't elaborate on Myul Mang's past. The scene where they first meet (in the funeral parlor) could've been explained to us? Why was he crying? Who was he mourning? What role did that person play in Doom's life?

There were so many unnecessary moments while I was waiting for Myul Mang's backstory. And sadly we didn't get it at all.

Another thing that bothered me so much was them forgetting each other. If the Deity Girl was super detailed (according to Doom), how come she didn't wipe them out of each other's lives completely? Or did she leave those hints (e.g. Doom's lockscreen) on purpose? That wasn't explained at all, unfortunately.

hm... first of all this is a romance drama, but I feel like it was missing something. Idk if I was the one who missed it though. During the early episodes, all those confusions doesn't convinced me that they are falling in love to each other?? Like.. they were hating each other then suddenly they were like I love you?? because of that the whole series was meh for me, I am not convinced they're inlove. They're cute seriously but not to the point it makes me flutters and yknow kinda likee ishh geghamm ha centu. The only thing I was looking forward towards the whole series is how they're going to end up together, since this is romance with non-human being. but then the ending wasn't as waw, for me this drama is very plainn, got potential but wasted.

Ridiculous

Plot: Upon finding out that she has 100 days to live, Dong Kyung makes a wish for the end of the world to Doom who wants her to redeem it by the time she dies. If she refuses to, he will kill off the person she loves most. **Either way she dies**

Remember the last line. Because the writers didn’t.

The person Dong Kyung most wants to protect is her younger brother. If she were to adhere to her wish her brother would die too after she’s gone. In a drunken stupor, upset and bitter about the injustice of her life gone to cancerous hell, she makes this destructive wish without having thought about the consequences of her words. Doom doesn’t care about any of that. She made a wish. He’ll fulfill it for her. She just need to reaffirm the wish again. So in another “brainflash” she decides she’ll fall in love with Doom and not wish the world to hell and both she and Doom will be the only ones who’ll die in the end. At this point, the whole story becomes very, VERY predictable.

It's obvious that she’ll regret it and try to save him from dying because she loves him. It’s obvious that they’ll fall in love (although how a non-living entity and embodiment of destruction can even feel any emotion is anyone’s guess). It’s obvious that nobody dies. What’s not obvious is how badly this is carried out.

There is absolutely no chemistry at all between the male and female protags. They just keep saying they love each other and that’s meant to be it. No work done. No bonding effort made. Nothing. The whole quasi explanation from the “mother of all life” character just added in a WTF element to it and partway through, when the writers instill a time loop arc, as in the characters lose their memory and repeat the whole meeting and falling in love again, you KNOW the writers have literally lost the plot and don’t know what to do anymore but to fill in time with more time wasters. Seo In Guk, as Doom, looks so bored the whole time I can’t make out what he’s feeling exactly when he says this or that, which adds to the whole Doom persona but viewers can’t help but wonder if the actor is actually bored… (he probably is. Go watch him in Café Minamdang where he’s able to show off more of his acting range. Poor dude’s talents got underused in this series.)

The second story that’s meant to help move things alongside the primary arc is a raised eyebrow plot. Girl falls in love with a stranger who kisses her while passing an umbrella to her. Erm, no. Maybe look up ‘consent’, South Korean studio execs. Strange men who kiss women are usually considered in criminal legislations or cases rather than the beginnings of a romance. Plus, it’s obvious Lee Hyun Gyu was only interested in Na Ji Na insofar as to compete with his older brother. Whenever his older brother is in the picture with Na Ji Na, Hyun Gyu ups his game with Ji Na and suddenly finds the courage to be meet her and tells her how he feels. How convenient. Methinks he should have a relationship with his brother instead, esp since his older brother says he’s his favourite person anyway.

Watched this coz it was the series that jumpstarted the careers of some actors I liked but will not watch again. Disappointing story. Rubbish and non-existent romance. Nonsense ending. Not recommended. Only watched till the end coz I usually like to watch shows that showcases professions and the look into a publishing company was interesting but it was too brief.

Funniest things were watching Doom wait at the traffic light for it to turn green when episodes before he was able to stop time and just walk across the road. Also, when watching the "mother of life" char become better and have a good time in her school and school uniform, with friends waiting for her, I thought, "she thinks it's great because she's not getting bullied" then remembered she was in The Glory... so I guess life's not that great after all! Just like this show!

Quite boring

I looked forward to this drama mainly because of the cast. At first I thought it's more like a thrilling ,mystery, drama. But after watching this one i didn't feel any of those. Before watching every episode I hoped something exciting was going to happen ,but nothing.
MY PERSONAL REASON TO DISLIKE
1.They fooled me with the amazing cast
2.I didn't like the way it ended. It can be far far better.
3.The way the second leads ended up together. I hoped she could be with her first love.
4.There was not a single element that made me feel excited or thrilled.
5.I somehow predicted the ending ,but i hoped it would not be the case.
6.In order to have a happy ending they sacrificed a highly potential story.

I'm totally regretting it.

POSITIVE
There is nothing much to say but
1.music
2.visual
3.cast

if you are looking for a drama to kill your time its good
IF YOU NEED SOMETHING EXCITING,THRILLING GUYS JUST SKIP THIS ONE.
