Happiness

Happiness, as the name sounds, isn't all about happiness though. This thriller drama sees an apocalyptic world where virus has created a havoc and residents of an apartment are surviving for their life.

Happiness had a decent story with a very good production and overall visuals. The soundtrack though, was the best part in the entire drama. The music tuned to the perfect rhythm along with the key moments in the series.

Not forgetting about the leads who gave a commendable performance and maintained romantic chemistry among themselves. It might not be a part of my Top 5 drama of the year, but it was a very well made show which blended multiple genres/aspects and delivered a convincing result.

My Rating : 7.5/10.

Not what you usually expect from K-dramas.

Although good make up/zombies acting, but script was really weak with so many loopholes, and characters with stupid motivations.

Great start, premise and strong lead casting.

What failed in this show was excessively emotion manipulation by repeating extreme human selfishness mentality in unnecessary situations , while the selfish mentality disappear and becomes idiocy during critical moments when common sense should prevail.

While entertaining in parts , exhausting to watch when the formula keep repeating throughout the show.

If you are looking for full zombie action with run and kill all the time, then this might not suitable for you.

I find it quite interesting because every character has his/her own motive and agenda, and made different decisions when facing the virus infected persons.

It makes you think you would have done the same, if your priority is yourself or some bigger ambition over others...

As a kdrama fan, I still don't get what so good in survival dramas. It's not my usual type of genre. But recently this genre got more popular. Sweet Home, Squid Game n Now Happiness. But I still like Happiness Kdrama and the reasons are simple Han Hyo Joo one of my favorite actress. Kdrama are addictable. I finished watching it. It was good. If you tried Squid Game and Sweet Home, then you can also give this a try.
