I am not usually a fan of the supernatural genre but I decided to watch this as I am a big fan of Kim Tae-ri and as usual she does not disappoint. Supported by a super cast she plays a struggling student who becomes possessed by a child ghost who is being pursued by an exorcist (Oh Jung-se) who can see ghosts. We also have a detective duo who are investigating mysterious deaths that go back many years with the older of the pair being friends with the exorcist. The story moves reasonably slowly but the director and writers slowly ramp up the tension so by the later episodes you are really on edge. Even though the child ghost is a murderous malevolent spirit I did feel sorry for her because of how people created her.

Revenant is a supernatural mystery thriller, so don't be put off by the "horror" tag if you're too scared to watch it. There is a lot of suspense but no gore, so true horror fans might be disappointed. Revenant has a unique and interesting plot featuring Korean folklore, so you'll be kept thinking and guessing throughout the series. It also raises important themes of society's pressures and how they affect youth.

Revenant showcases the masterclass acting of Kim Taeri, who absolutely gets better with each work, and she fully deserves all the accolades she gets. She has the uncanny knack of transforming herself with each role and you don't see a trace of past characters.

I thoroughly enjoyed Revenant and highly recommend it. It joins Twenty-Five Twenty-One and Mr Sunshine has my all-time favourite dramas.

The show is amazing and I have been enjoying it so far!! It is still on going, we have many questions and are intrigued by the unsolved mysteries. I love this feeling. The cinematography and background music!!!

Also, the acting of Kim Tae-ri! Since her debut film out(The Handmaiden), she has been surprising us with her great yet natural performance! Her expressions, movements, voice, and acting details are amazing!

Oh Jung-se is also a really good actor! His charisma is on another level!

I have not expected that but the chemistry between Taeri and Hongkyung is fire. Although the show is non-romance, Taeri has great chemistry with both male leads.

Revenant is a suspense thriller that will captivate your curiosity. Covered with so many layers of lies and real life experiences. This film will surely make you watch all episodes in one sitting because you would seriously want to know the WHO, WHERE, WHEN and HOW. You will be left dumfounded by clues that are left by the spirits. Oh Jung-Se made another spectacular character. From the very first episode, it will leave you wondering with so many questions about the entirety of the film and you would want to know the answers to it. You'll never guess what happens to each episode. Everyone did a great portrayal. Makes you realize and appreciate things that you normally take for granted. A must watch!! Yet another great addition to my binge-watching movie list. This will not leave you disappointed.

Before I go on about how Kim Tae-Ri deserves every Best Actress award that there is right now in South Korea for her brilliant dual role performance, Revenant is a 12-episode horror thriller that follows Gu San-Yeong (Tae-Ri) as she - with the help of a folklore professor - tries to banish the evil spirit that's latched onto her before it completely takes over her life.

Unlike The Guest that features graphic gore and horror, Revenant has the right amount of violence and spook, but it'll definitely give you door knocks paranoia for the next couple of days lol.

The series has a solid slow burn storyline with plot twists that will keep you guessing until the finale. Also, no filler episodes! Every episode is crucial to the story and even the throwbacks are done so well.

Lastly back to Tae-Ri. I believe she just delivered her career-best performance yet as Gu San-Yeong. She's phenomenal in this and watching her switch personas from being terrified, to looking terrifying in a blink of an eye gives me chills every time. She's a versatile actor and I simply cannot wait for her future works.
