This weekend the Korean drama Bulgasal which airs on tvN will end. Many think this drakor is similar to the Goblin drama.
However, the drama quickly proved that assumption wrong. The drama Bulgasal builds a thrilling story about a man who has a desire for revenge.
He's looking for a 600 year old woman. Throughout the story, there are monsters, chaos, and other shocking scenes.
Towards the end, here are six reasons why you should watch the drama Bulgasal, quoted from Soompi, Saturday (12/2/2022).
1. Monsters
Bulgasal highlights some of the monsters from Korean folklore. There are geuseunsae, who kill people when it rains and collect sacrifices' umbrellas as trophies; there is gapsangoe, a pyromaniac and loves to burn things and people.
There are also theoreoxons, monsters from the Yongsan River that store corpses in the water. In this drama, these creatures evolve over time, turning into monsters and pretending to be humans.
It's an interesting idea that ancient predators could turn into humans. This makes it difficult for Dan Hwal (Lee Jin Wook) and heroine Min Sang Woon (Kwon Nara) to hunt them down.
2. Villain
Ok Eul Tae (Lee Joon) is a monster who seems to have no regrets but possesses intelligence, wealth, and strength.
However, Lee Joon is a human-like monster who has feelings that his sorrow and suffering is so palpable that it's hard to hate him even when you know he's about to kill someone.
As someone who has lived a very long time, Ok Eul Tae sees friends, enemies, and family reincarnated over and over again.
So he found it difficult to see death as something wrong and saw it as a normal condition so he often killed someone.
It's hard enough not to like that perspective even though his actions are objectively wrong.
3. Confusion
One thing that “Bulgasal” emphasizes is the cycle of relationships, whether it be family ties or fated separations.
Each encounter leaves a scar on one's soul that will one day reverberate once again when that person is reincarnated.
In his bond with the past, the character "Bulgasal" seems destined to live alone with the same destiny for years.
The main question is whether anyone can break free.
In this sense “Bulgasal” has three main characters, Ok Eul Tae, Min Sang Woon, and Dan Hwal who have past ties to the future.

From ex-cop Kwon Ho Yeol (Jung Jin Young) to butcher shop owner Lee Hye Seok (Park Myung Shin), to Min Sang Woon's sister Min Si Ho (Gong Seung Yeon), the people around them all share an unforgettable past. they realized.
It's one that will shape their future and those around them.
4. Romance
Given that the original story of this drama was a man who hunts a woman for revenge, in the drama “Bulgasal” this story is made relatively standard in a very good way.
First, Hwal isn't a jerk. A lot of revenge dramas have a male lead who starts off as a person who truly cannot be redeemed by love.
But Hwal remained kind for 600 years, he killed just to protect himself. Even after finally meeting the woman he liked after waiting all these years, he didn't hurt her. Even he was open with plans for her, but he was never cruel.
For bulgars who are always described with big and bad, in this drama bulgasal is described as a gentle person. Look at his face when he cries.
This was a woman who had been seeking revenge for over 600 years, and when she saw that she was truly hurt, she immediately gave up.
No wonder Min Sang Woon couldn't help but start taking care of him. Both of them understand where they are coming from, and they approach the matter of revenge.
This isn't an overtly romantic show, but there's a palpable tenderness between the main cast.
5. Kwon Nara and Gong Seung Yeon
Hwal is a man who has sadness, betrayal and obsession inside him. But he chose to be a good person.
The real main stars are Kwon Nara and Gong Seung Yeon, playing two sisters who fight for each other and are loyal. Both are experienced actresses.
6. Finding family
The most surprising element of “Bulgasal” is the group of people Hwal picks up after he finds Min Sang Woon and how quickly it forms a family around his house and quickly forms a family around a lonely man.
Hwal is completely confused by the people who seem to really like him and want to live near him. Even though he tried to tell them to leave, out of fear of what could happen to them if they stayed by his side.
And that's the reason why you should watch this drama! “Bulgasal” is by no means perfect. However, there's enough blood, action, and heart-wrenching performance to make this drama the perfect party for the weekend. /celebrties.id
