It absolutely baffles me when shows like this get rated below a 7, whereas other completely mindless, horribly written ones with atrocious dialogue and acting get much higher ratings.

Albeit no "Train to Busan," most of Yeon Sang-ho's works post that blockbuster were all compelling in their own rights. Hellbound tackles the issue of religion and the dangers of cultish behavior, Jung-E is a family story packaged in an action drama, and this one, once again tackles familial relationships but in a much different arena. And there's always something humane at the core of these shows that grounds them, despite some of the outlandish scenarios. What happens when absolute devotion to your family pushes you to do irrational things; what happens when lack of devotion creates similar outcomes? This is a wonderful exploration of the complexity of what family means, should be, could be, shouldn't be, is expected to be, etc.

The acting is superb, and the characters are complex and dynamic. Highly recommended.

So, I shall not put this as a 'must watch' programme, because the phrase is often overused.

I will definitely say that it is a 'should see'.

Without spoilers, I will say that there are some plot holes, but then there is the build up to the final episode.

I did like the fact that the character development is retrospective, and that continues right to the last seconds of the final episode.

There are layers upon layers, and at one point, I had convinced myself that I knew what the final twist would be.... Then the final twist caught me by surprise, and I really enjoyed that. It is a strange blend of secrets, coupled with some parallel storylines.

If I had any complaints, it should have had another episode or maybe two, just to flesh out the additional storylines, and fill the plot holes.

But, it is very well done, it is definitely worth seeing, and there is a commentary on the troubles of being human.

Another web series written by Yeon Sang Ho. After binge watching the six episodes. I do think that Yeon Sang Ho needs to rediscover his spark while he is doing Train to Busan. It seems that he lose something that was not always present on his previous projects which were Hellbound, Jung E and this current project The Bequeathed. Honestly the plot and story was there, Great actors and all , but watching the series till the end was screaming THAT'S IT? I really hate to invest on a series that I expected to be great cause the material was really there but the execution was a let down. To be fair , the cinematic and sounds were all well executed but then it just not what i expected.

Is it worth watching? In my own opinion Yes, if you're a person who likes mystery and novel like psychological thriller series. But if you're not into slow pace thriller just go to the next kdrama.

Every family has its own secrets and tragedies. It is just a matter of time when these secrets and tragedies will be revealed. Seon-san (The Bequeathed) is a serie that focus on a family which has secrets and tragedies in their past. This serie also focus on "greed" and it shows us clearly how greed can transform you into a monster. On the other hand, the serie focuses on the concepts of "forgiveness and mercy" and they are very well studied. The acting is great. The scenario is a great. The atmosphere is great. For that reason, I recommend everyone to give a try to watch this serie. I really enjoyed it even though I am not familiar with Korean TV series. I give 9 out of 10 for this serie.

I Don't Know Where To Start, But You Could Say It's A Decent Horror-Thriller K-Drama. However, Ghosts Do Not Mean That Actual Ghosts Will Appear. The 'Horror' Aspect Is Hidden Within The Theme. If You Can Catch This Theme, You Will Enjoy The Series For Sure. Otherwise, It Might Bore You Because It's For A Pro Audience, Not For Beginners. The Series Is Very Slow, And There Is No Romance. If You Love Dark, Mysterious, Thriller K-Dramas With Police Procedures, Then It's For You. The Start Is Really Nice, And The Mystery Will Hold You Until The End. You Will Get Backstory And Character Development For The Main Characters. The Actors Perform Very Well, And I Particularly Like Actor Park Hee Soon. A Few Things Could Have Been Better, But It's Still An Enjoyable Mystery K-Drama.
