Zombie Detective: Eps 9 and 10
Once again, I’m impressed with the wit of the writer of this kdrama. Even the titles are witty — Episode 9 is “There are No Bad Zombies in This World.” Episode 10 is “The Secret of Birth.” 1. The titles On one hand, the titles can be interpreted literally. But they actually provide a tongue-in-cheek […]

Zombie Detective: Eps 3 & 4

In fact, the rules are twisted to hilarious results. For example, when Zombie Kim MooYung hasn’t eaten for days, he loses his senses and, to his horror, becomes a monster. […]
Zombie Detective: First Impressions and Open Thread

Starring drop-dead gorgeous Choi Jin Hyuk (“Pride and Prejudice” and “Devilish Charm”) and Park Joo-Hyun (the dead friend in “A Piece of Your Mind”), the first four episodes show Choi’s character transform from an amnesiac zombie into an undead detective. He awoke […]
