I finally started Castaway–midway through the first ep and GOOD NIGHT this drama is dark af. I didn’t read anything about it, just remembered the chatter here a few weeks ago and thought to give it a go. I’m going to take a little break and clean my kitchen. Does it stay this level of dark or should I just drop now?

    No, you can proceed without fear although there is something sinister lurking around the edges later is how I’d characterize it.

    @isa: I’m not a serial killer having just finished 5, I came back to say that for me it’s getting pretty dark again. I thought we were getting a Cinderella success story, why is it becoming a mystery? Fooey.

    OK, where they going to let that evil man kill that little boy? How come not a single adult tried to help him? Tf? Also, her father was busting into her bedroom? Is he a molester on top of beating her? This is a lot for my first foray back into kdrama land. I’m going to need something fluffy like…immediately.

      We can offer you 2&3, it gets fluffy for a while! But I’m looking askance at 6 after watching 5 is all I’m saying 😬

        It doesn’t feel like a side / slice of darkness anymore.
        I am enduring only for Park Eun-bin. She is magical but the Ki-ho’s father’s storyline is just too much.
