Review: Black

Thriller, fancy, romance, investigation

At first I was a bit confused with the characters. I felt that the story was like a puzzle without showing the whole  story what is going on. After watching the drama till the end, I finally understood the whole story.

Black is the caller for Grim reaper 444. He wanted to capture another grim reaper who are hiding in the human body. There was an accident happened to Mong Gang where by the killer shot on his head and believed that he was dead. Black (who always wear black so that Ha Ram cannot see the shadow on Mong Gang's body) then that the opportunity to enter Mong Gang's body. Ha Ram has special ability that she can see the dark shadow and can foresee the future of death when she touch the shadow.

Ha Ram tried to change the fate of the people. She couldn't bear to see others died. Thus, she tried to avoid what is going to happen to their death. However, people think that she was crazy, and nobody believe her. Because she was so afraid to see those shadows, she tend to wear sunglasses in order not to see the shadow. Mong Gang motivated her that she should appreciate the gift that she had, and using her ability to help more people.

After Black entering Mong Gang's body, he also used Ha Ram to catch another grim reaper which he called him "loser". He tried to failed Ha Ram from saving the people from death. After spending a couple of time together, Black without realising that he eventually fall in love with Ha Ram.

Through the investigation of Black, finally found out that Mong Gang was his younger half-bother. He was killed by Mong Gang's mother who donated his heart to his brother in order to save his brother life. Later, he was then dumped into the sea with a car. He also discovered the person who shot his head was Ha Ram. He also managed to find the real culprit who raped his first lover and punished them severely.

The overall the story is still consider ok. Quite creative to express what the whole drama is all about.
