Doom At Your Service: Episode 2 Review
Fabulous! is among one of the many other praises that I have just after watching two episodes. The cast, the storyline, the dialogue delivery, and the OST are on point. Each and every moment when Park Bo Young and Seo In Guk interact is nothing short of magical. The scenes where Tak Dong Kyung realizes how truly sad her fate is with Ailee’s ‘Breaking Down’ playing in the background make your heart hurt. Seo In Guk portraying the sadness and despair of Myul Mang just through his eyes is amazing. Although not much of the love triangle between Lee Soo Hyuk, Kang Tae Oh, and Shin Do Hyun is shown yet, Lee Soo Hyuk is extremely appealing to look at, and his tough yet caring nature makes him more likable. The existence of a deity as a patient in a hospital is quite confusing. We hope our doubts will be cleared later on. Seo In Guk is back and is better than ever. The styling of Myul Mang totally fits the bad boy image and Seo In Guk is pulling it off really well. Park Bo Young is fabulous and keeps getting more beautiful every passing second. She does a great job at showing Tak Dong Kyung’s sadness without actually crying. A special shoutout to the production team, as the drama is truly a cinematic masterpiece. It has beautiful shots of Korea and the way each scene is filmed heightens the suspense. Tune in to watch Doom At Your Service at 9 pm KST on tvN every Monday and Tuesday. International viewers can watch it on Viki.
