I don't really get why this has such a low rating. As far as KDramas are concerned, it managed to avoid tons of clichés we usually see. And that was a welcome and unexpected surprise to me. The subject matter is aliens and cults so if that's not someone's cup of tea they probably won't enjoy the series but personally I'm into stuff like that and this was fun without getting too scary or super lost in detail. I won't compare it to US productions of the same subject matter but since there's none I've seen so far from South Korea I think it deserves a higher rating than the 6.2 it has right now. If anything so that we start getting more KDramas that are different than the usual.

The theme of this show isn't the kind that interests me, but I decided to give it a chance.

With the exception of the stupid appearance of the alien with a baseball helmet on his head, the story isn't that bad.

Cults in Korea are a scary reality, mixed with the UFO theme and everything else, it gave the show a "Scooby-Doo" vibe, which was actually fun and interesting to watch. If you were a fan of the cartoon as a child, you'll understand what I mean. Im Jin Ah's acting, as always, is excellent, and I can say that she was my favorite character in the entire plot.

I recommend the show to anyone looking for light, fun entertainment with a hint of mystery and suspense. The special appearance by Son Sook (older Back Yoon Seo) was a very pleasant surprise, I always love all of her characters.

People seem to either love this show or find it disappointing. I loved it an see no reason for such a low score. I didn't find it slow or too long, and I loved the ending, or pehaps I should say several endings.

The chemistry between the two leading ladies is really good (they seem to be friends off screen too). Will watch this again.

The theme of aliens, mental health and the cult could have been explored somewhat deeper, as it raised a lot of interesting quetions. The effects were reasonable and I liked the plot twists.

The ai theme is really about love and helping each other through good times and bad, Even the cult was based on love, but a love that has become twisted and abused by others, not for money, but power.

The story is an adventure with protagonist against her head and against aliens.

I loved the all the side characters, each group delivered different kind of comedy and events.

All the episodes are eventful and light nothing serious but still interesting.

I'll refer to hong ji-hyo as the main lead, and huh Bora as the second lead according to their appearance order.

The main lead was so good in her role, her acting felt natural and sincere which is a hard thing to deliver in a drama-comedy. I loved how she looked natural unlike female lead in Korean series where they usually act and dresses to look so pretty and cute even if it's not needed. I have seen her in night in paradise and she really stand out from most Korean actresses. She is beautiful and talented.

The second female lead was a bit over the top with her acting and hairstyle. She was suppose to be the boyish free girl, but she wore full makeup all the time withe perfect curled hair and childish outfits. Her facial expressions "even the silly ones" were camera-posing like expressions. Don't get me wrong she was fine but being in the same frame with the main characters made her acting looks tacky.

Finally, The dynamic between the leads was built on mi-school brief friendship. And the second lead is upset until now and blame the main lead for it, and that was funny and immature for grown woman. She felt the an possessed ex girl friend and it was silly. She remided me of thst one episode of friends whene ross meet a hight school friend"brad bitt" and he He makes fun about how they used to be obsessed with dinosaurs while Rosa is still geeky about it. But in this series she is still a 15 mentally. They definitely have chemistry but thats not everything.

I see others calling it boring, confusing, or just not good but I honestly loved it.

At the end of every episode I found myself thinking "damn I like this show" Watching it just gave me this unique happy feeling that I can't quite describe.

It was serious, thrilling at times, silly at times, and wasn't constantly go go go which I loved!

(Although it did have some dark themes like cults, suicide, and being drugged, so if you have a hard time with that stuff I wouldn't recommend watching it.)

You know that feeling when you finish a show you liked and you're like "ugh, well what am I gonna watch now? It's going to be so hard to find another show that I enjoy as much as this one" I finished the show minutes ago and that's exactly how I'm feeling now.

Recently I've been starting shows, getting about halfway through, then the urge to keep watching goes away and I'm left disappointed and wanting to find something else, so the fact that I finished this show AND enjoyed each and every episode means quite a lot.

I'll be honest it's not as sci-fi and has more to do with a cult than the synopsis leads you to think, I mean there's definitely sci-fi and much of the plot has to do with aliens and UFOs but there's a lot more cult action than you'd think.

I also have to add, the character (and Nana, the actress who plays) Bo-ra is SO hot. So, idk, do with that what you will

Anyways I know this review was everywhere but all that to say I very much recommend watching this. Still, ya know, just read the reviews and decide for yourself if you'd you're interested or not.
