What I didn't expect
When jumping into the kdrama, I first started watching because of everyone recommending it online. I didnt jump into it thinking it would be a thriller about religious cult and abuse of power. In fact, my original thoughts were that it was a basic thriller about a mother loosing someone close and the family having to get use to life. Basically, my idea was a normal story with not much going on. I also assumed people liked it because of the cast. The cast mainly bringing in the visuals and let's face it a lot of kdramas are known for their beautiful cast, but it was more than that.
It drove in a deeper meaning about power and abuse all in all I liked it a lot. The plot was well executed, with it always being so mysterious and unexpected especially the first episode. It was confusing in my opinion, the opening scene being a family driving in the middle of the night in a rural area. I could tell it was going to be one creepy kdrama. All the characters were introduced in the first episode, and it was quite creepy but rather confusing too. My first thoughts were is this really going to be good, it seems quite normal so far. I was very wrong, after the first episode i started to binge it slowly and only three days have gone past and I have finished it. I never thought save me would make me binge it the way it did. After watching another kdrama I havent binged anything in a long time so this was very new to me
There are a few things I disliked though just like every drama/show there's always something people dont like. For me it would be the pace. It was usually at good speed but sometimes it was way too slow however, it did bring in adrenaline and made me really tense while watching. I prefer fast paced moments especially in thrillers and even during the super intense high tension moments the scenes still took forever. For instance, when Sang Mi unlocked Apostle Kang's room she looked around cautiously then slowly walked in that for me was a scene i feel like shouldve gone quicker. May be it's because I knew she was coming but still that intense moment was taken down with the slow execution.
That being said these moments did make it way more interesting for the show. All the thriller filled scenes were super entertaining and just like everyone else I enjoyed it a lot.
