My Review….
This was a truly unique drama. It gave vibes of Tomb Raider meets Supernatural. The story wasn’t bad, frankly, but it wasn’t perfect either. The story started out very well, but towards the second half, it lost its momentum and began to deviate a little. Also, the mystery in this story was a little predictable and the ending for one of the side couples made no sense. But, this can be easily ignored because there were a lot of good things about this drama that compensated for the plot development. I especially loved how strong and independent the female lead was in the story. Her badass attitude and never-fear-what-may-come spirit were a true delight to watch. The male lead too was quite an unconventional character who stuck to his values even when others around him didn’t. In fact, the chemistry between the leads was great yet subtle. Their interactions, the way they teased each other, were quite beautifully shown. The cinematography too, of this drama wherein it showed desert and parallel worlds, was quite arresting. So, if you are someone who is a fan of adventures in a desert world with a dash of supernatural and parallel worlds in it, you can give this one a try. However, if you are someone who does not like this genre too much, then skip it. I leave the decision up to you.
