FYI: Kim Tae Ri - Baeksang Best Actress (25 21), Oh Jung Se - Baeksang Best Supporting Actor (It's Okay Not To Be Okay). Hong Kyung - Baeksang Best New Actor (Innocence), Kim Eun Hee - Baeksang Best Screenplay (Signal). And together they made The Revenant. So what would you think will happen? Yes, a masterpiece.

I waited almost every week for another 2 episodes because the series was very intriguing. The characters were all smart and open minded, and also learnt from their mistakes. This what made the show different from any other horror/thriller movie, where most of the characters were looked so panic and clueless when it came the time to face the devil.

Supporting casts were also very good. The mother, the good friend, the old detective, the demonic granny, the shaman, even the evil spirit, all stole the moment when it came to their screen times. Last but not least: kudos to the screen writer and director that pay attention to story details example: when the mom complaint about how Gu San Yeong never ask her to ride along with her new car, or when the scar in Gu San Yeong's head remained seen until the end of the series.

Excellent 9/10

A very minor spoiler : at the end, we will still feel pity for the main character.

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, starring Kim Tae-ri who is known for her acclaimed projects The Handmaiden, Mr. Sunshine, Twenty-Five Twenty-One and more, is a supernatural horror drama that questions wishes that comes with sacrifice.

Revenant's supernatural chase has a beginning and hopefully an ending (that doesn't end with many more deaths). The evil spirit that goes on possessing the characters is an outcome of inhumane cruelty and greed of the society which has to reap the seed it has sown. It is not just a tale about a supernatural mystery chase but a tale about regressive traditions, of unravelling the darkness that lies in being human, of denying the right to live.

Overall, the show is fast paced with thrilling and simultaneously terrifying scenes. The mystery lies in identifying the spirit while the spirit is aware of every step that one takes. And the stakes are high, especially when the professionals have been killed in the process. Needless to mention, the cast is doing a fantastic job especially Kim Tae-ri who changes into a different person in every episode.

My Rating : 9/10.

Finally, a K Drama on Disney+/Hulu that was good.

Starts off with a creepy, supernatural premise, and mostly delivers. Never veering into horror, it manages to stay planted firmly in supernatural suspense territory.

A good chunk of this show's success can be attributed to Kim Tae Ri (25 to 21, Space Sweepers) who once again 34.65 convincingly portrays a teenager (at 33!). As great as the cast is, and as well as the mystery unfolds,2023 10 they took too many episodes to reveal & resolve everything. Had this kept up its initial pacing, and not added padding episodes, it would have been a 9/10. Even the vfx were very decent, never a distraction.

As it stands, being about 4 or 5 episodes too long, it's still a very decent 7.9, B-

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.
