Blood Free (2024)

"Unraveled: The AI Enigma - A Cliffhanger Left Viewers Puzzled, Desperate for Answers... Why?"

"In a world where AI reigns supreme, Blood Free captivates audiences with its futuristic portrayal of a building controlled by chatbot. As drama unfolds, viewers are drawn into a thrilling narrative where the line between technology and humanity blurs. Experience the future on the big screen like never before!" So, let me come to point ; i like the production activities of Disney hotstar for set designs as well as the machines too, it was just awesome to watch the series. The plot is being left out in this whole series according to me, from last 3 episodes it is so hard to guess what is happening? As they wanted to have the sequel so they left us with many questions than answers. Especially, why did prime minister dad did this all(attack on military camp and also on his father in law) is too confusing. The screenplay was nice as well as it give us to watch the whole series at one go! Climax was so confusing i think so hero and heroine are alive somewhere and they have shifted BF building somewhere too! So, everybody think Yun(FL) died in Korea but not sure of it! Aah it is so much frustrating why can't they release sequel of this series too.

No BS drama

i like there story acting and how they directed it

i just don't get how in ep5 FL suddenly become so blind about her bodyguard,
how she discriminated between two of her bodyguards, one is more important then other ?
until ep4 they were so professional about it, but suddenly in ep 5, CEO is enjoying sleeping in bodyguards bed and worried about Manshik out of nowhere ?
and now he got super hearing power too...
after ep 6 ML become worse,
they way they neglected other bodyguard and look down on him
ML become a cry baby and took his anger on Other bodyguard because he do not have guts to do that same to his master
ML then become too arrogant to even talk just because he received BJ from FL in there secret LAB
AFTER ep 5 it started getting downhill,
ML then show fake concern about his partner...?
he don't know if his partner was Worried about him but he know his madam would be worried to death for him ?
at end of ep 6 i see ML wait and wait until killer finishes his job to reach his partner who wasn't given super powers unlike him
that Man died for what ? just salary no BJ and nights talking with CEO, dude got nothing but died... while ML was waiting there standing without doing anything, his super hearing doesn't work at that moment

other bodyguard die and nobody cares, ML even try to make it look like his death help them find a mole so. his death was good for them

A thriller amidst a futuristic vegan world

BF (Blood Free) is an organisation headed by ChaeWoon which manufactures cultured meat (man-made meat) and has monopolised its market. In the beginning you get the feeling that will cover various merits and demerits of vegan industry like its impact on livelihood of people involved in meat industry. Or loss of livelihood being one of necessary sacrifices need to stop the cruelty against animals. Or the side-effects of cultured meat.

But, soon enough they take the drama in direction of thriller/mystery genre. There are 2 mysteries involved - one is ongoing which involves JaYoo and second one which happened in past involves ChaeWoon.

ChaeWoon is a former soldier who got pushed out of his original career because of mystery number 1. Solving mystery 1 is life's mission for ChaeWoon. And to solve it he has to become bodyguard of FL.

Story can take 2 directions - cultured meat or finding the culprit behind 2 incidents.
From the looks of things it looks to be going towards the latter.
Maybe to conclude they will hopefully show cultured meat related dilemmas at the end.

BGM is nice. Since, both ML and FL are veteran actors, as expected they are doing decent enough with their roles.

With just 2 episodes, it is difficult to exactly feel excited about it yet, Next few episodes will be make-it or break-it for me.

Power corrupts, but does it have to corrupt one's soul, too?

I wholeheartedly believe there is some truth in every fictional story. Blood Free is no exception, especially in the way it depicts how the 1% delusional wealthy believe themselves to be superior to everybody else and think, not just accept but demand that the laws of man and land not apply to them in any way, shape, or form. They deserve not only elitism, amorality, but immortality just because they are wealthy boggles the mind. It makes me wonder. I know power corrupts, but does it have to corrupt one's soul, too? How can a parent such as Seon Woo Jae's ( I love me some Lee Hee Joon) mother, who loves her child so much, have such disregard for someone else's child; what makes them think only their child is precious? I will never understand. That said, what a brilliantly made drama!

Watching a fantastic show on TV or a great movie in the theatre sometimes leaves us thinking about what made that so great and why it moved us or made us nervous. I have come to understand that a TV show or movie can only become influential when all the key elements such as plot, character, thought, diction, spectacle, musical score, mystery, action, directing, and acting are done correctly -- all of which were intelligently weaved in Blood-free to make it beyond excellent, superb in fact. I think Blood Free is undoubtedly one of the best K-dramas Disney+ has ever produced, right there with A Shop for Killers, if not the best. Kudos to all, especially Han Hyo Joo. She was outstanding, and so was Ju Ji Hoon and everybody else. When I started this drama I thought Yoon Ja Yoo the most impactful character but by the end of it On San (Lee Moo Saeng) left an even bigger mark. The mere fact that this was only 10 episodes, made me believe there would be a second season to it. I await it, patiently.
