This was an alright crime drama. It wasn’t perfect, and there were some things that irked me. But the story was interesting enough and the production value was good. Do check this out if you want a short crime drama.

This drama has a surprisingly complete story. It did have its fair share of tropes and sloppy writing, but overall I appreciated its efforts in weaving together a thriller. Not the best, but decent.

I am only slightly kidding when I say this may be the best Asian drama I have ever watched. Of course, it’s impossible to compare this 10 episode contemporary drama to, say, a 60 episode historical romance drama. But The World Between Us is a drama where I can find little to no fault in every aspect. The acting and production quality are good, and the story and writing are SPECTACULAR.

I would highly recommend this drama to everybody, but just be warned that I was crying nearly every episode for the first half of this drama, because the conflicts are heart-wrenching. This is a drama about a terrorist attack, but the focus is not on the act of terrorism, but the people who are left in the aftermath. The story is handled with lots of care, and I would recommend people only to watch it when they are in the mood to watch something serious.

As I was watching this drama, I had made commentary posts for each episode. I have linked them here (Ep 1) (Ep 2) (Ep 3) (Ep 4) (Ep 5) (Ep 6) (Ep 7) (Ep 8) (Ep 9) (Ep 10)

Super messy write up ahead! And spoilers!
