Blood Free (2024– ) User Reviews

An interesting series

[ykosan · 10/10 · 6 May 2024]

An attractive series, with a subject that I like, mixes the detective genre with suspense and tracks of multiple possibilities and the genre a bit sci-fi, I mean the medical part, partially the printed food part I like actors, the visual part is quite ok, try not to make it too futuristic, I hope the screenwriters don't put it in the fantasy area and start with heroes/heroines with supernatural powers.

I'm looking forward to season 2, and as one of my predecessors said: "Disney don't skimp, make a bit of a fuss so that the series has more views." For those who give a low rating, 1-3, I'm sorry that this series doesn't please you, there's always a speck of dust in the coffee, it doesn't matter how the coffee is, that's it.

Korean Drama actors and writers are doing the best work atm

[louie-24342 · 10/10 · 17 April 2024]

At this point, after 4 episodes, I am fully invested in the story and extremely impressed with the great acting by all the cast.

The original plot, great locations, and the proper slow reveal of each characters back story is creating the perfect atmosphere for hooking me into waiting for the next episode.

Han Hyo-joo shows the range of her acting between the very different character of Yun Ja-yu compared to her previous wonderful role in "Moving". Ju Ji-hoon, who has had some wonderful roles in both "Kingdom" and the multi-part movie series "Along with the Gods", is very convincing as the ex-SpecOp soldier. Both characters still have much to reveal to one another and again I want to compliment the excellent writing.

Congratulations and thank you to the entire team. Looking forward to the next episodes.

"Blood Free": A Captivating Blend of Mystery, Sci-Fi, and Drama

[bhagyaheenatigala · 10/10 · 4 May 2024]

In the ever-evolving landscape of K-dramas, "Blood Free" emerges as a trailblazer, defying conventions and offering viewers an exhilarating experience. With its unique premise, stellar cast, and thought-provoking themes, this Disney+ series is a must-watch for those seeking something extraordinary.

1. A Visionary Concept At the heart of "Blood Free" lies a visionary company called BF. Their mission? To revolutionize the food production and consumption industry. Armed with cutting-edge science and technology, BF creates genetically modified food, eliminating the need for traditional animal slaughter. The concept of "blood-free" sustenance challenges societal norms and raises ethical questions, making it a compelling backdrop for the drama.

2. A Complex Plot Led by acclaimed writer Lee Soo Yeon (known for the "Stranger" series), the show weaves an intricate web of mystery and suspense. Yun Ja Yoo (played by the talented Han Hyo Joo) navigates corporate intrigue, political machinations, and personal dilemmas. As unexplained threats loom over BF, the stakes escalate, leaving viewers guessing at every turn.

3. Futuristic Setting The clash between humanity and technology takes center stage. BF's disruptive innovations disrupt the food chain, presenting a thought-provoking commentary on environmental and ethical concerns. The show's futuristic world feels eerily plausible, inviting us to contemplate our own choices and their consequences.

4. Exceptional Cast Chemistry Ju Ji Hoon and Han Hyo Joo lead the ensemble, infusing their characters with depth and authenticity. Their on-screen chemistry crackles, adding layers to the drama. Whether it's a potential romance or a complex partnership, their interactions keep us invested.

5. Cinematic Brilliance Visually stunning, "Blood Free" boasts cinematography that elevates the storytelling. Each frame is meticulously crafted, capturing the essence of the narrative. From sleek corporate boardrooms to rain-soaked traffic jams, the visuals enhance the emotional impact.

6. Unraveling Mysteries As BF faces threats and cyberattacks, the tension mounts. Who is behind the hacking? What secrets lie buried in the company's past? The drama tantalizes with clues, promising revelations that will keep viewers hooked.

7. Woo Chae Woon's Enigma Enter Woo Chae Woon (played by the enigmatic Ju Ji Hoon), an ex-naval academy and army officer. His motives remain shrouded in mystery. Is he a protector or a threat? The chemistry between Woo Chae Woon and Yun Ja Yoo adds layers of intrigue.

In Conclusion "Blood Free" is more than a drama; it's a thought-provoking exploration of ethics, progress, and survival. As the mysteries unfold, we're drawn deeper into this captivating world. So, grab your popcorn, settle in, and let "Blood Free" take you on an unforgettable journey.

With its stellar cast, intricate plot, and cinematic brilliance, "Blood Free" stands as a testament to the limitless creativity of K-drama makers and promises an unforgettable viewing experience for audiences seeking something truly extraordinary.

Boring affair without any spark

[kanikapatwal-38319 · 5/10 · 23 April 2024]

What could have been an interesting drama because the premise was good, was turned into a boring affair by bad direction, bad editing, over the top background music. Despite having well known name, acting is mediocre. I didn't feel any interest in any character's story and background. No chemistry between leads and I am not talking about romantic chemistry. It seems everyone is operating in their own universe. There are dragged scenes without reasons. The action sequences and use of VFX is also mediocre. It seems the drama was created to impress someone but failed.

This is my review after 2 episodes but I don't think I will be able to continue watching it.

An apparently good story let down by other factors.

THIS IS A MASTERPIECE

[athenayvanovic · 10/10 · 2 May 2024]

The actors, the plot, the chemistry, the cinematography, everything in this drama are really GREAT. Idk why the rating is low, but TRUST ME. You guys better watch it NOW. Han hyo joo never disappoint me, the chemistry she has with her coworker, the PM and her bodyguard are soooo FABULOUS. There is just one flaw in this drama, why does it have to be just 10 episodes!? I need 5 seasons og this. I'm simping this drama. I think the drama doesnt get enough popularity because lack of promotions. Disney you better promotes the drama moreeee. It's your fault that people do not know this GEMS!!! You gotta be more serious huh!

So many obstacles that prevent you from liking this show...

[paulyew-45125 · 3/10 · 19 April 2024]

The premise of the show is interesting enough. The first episode quickly introduces the main characters and enough suspense to grab your attention. However, everything pretty much spins out of control thereafter. I'm on ep. 3 and I believe that's a good place to jump off. First of all, the ridiculously over dramatic music is impossible to ignore. Secondly, there is a scene where the show decides to show the audience an elaborate booting sequence for an AI system. It's as if the showrunners want to tell the audience "hey, look at this awesome CG we incorporated into this show." However, it's completely unnecessary and almost laughable. Now, these are minor issues that most viewers would be willing to stomach. On the other hand, the plot holes and complete non-sense that the show tries to force feed will be less than palatable for most intelligent viewers. For example, the main female character does not trust her bodyguard. He's been on the job for one day, yes, just one day. Instead of reassigning him or simply firing him, there is a long drawn out scene with her confronting her bodyguard. There is nothing worse than creating a highly intelligent, competent character and making that character act unintelligent or incompetent, over and over, just to carry the story forward. Speaking of one day on the job, a lot of events take place throughout ep 2 and 3, and someone says "it's only his first day on the job." That includes the entire living room and kitchen busted up in the afternoon, only to appear spotless within few hours when the guy returns to his home.

In conclusion, it's an interesting story with very poor execution. Once the show is over, I may just read what happened. Not really interested in sitting through 8 full episodes.

Amazing Exciting on-the-edge show

[drsaher-23583 · 10/10 · 26 April 2024]

I am surprised how some real low rating are there. This must be from haters or opposite camp people. Because the show is amazing.

There is no usual idiotic behaviour termed 'cute', or non-sensical empty shell suspense. Characters are not trying to be evil or angels. There is a seriousness which is usually lacking in Korean shows. The story is strong, characters are genuine and professional as they should be. Steady reveal of background stories and development is neither jittery nor sluggish. A good new tech good solid drama where main leads are actually SENSIBLE.

Do not miss it, among the current lot,- it is the best one. FABULOUS 10/10.

Wonderful...

[shrutishikha-21157 · 10/10 · 10 May 2024]

PLEASE DO BRING SEASON 2 AS SOON AS POSSIBLE....

pleaseeeeee I need season two, the ending is confusing😭😫

[balabalala · 9/10 · 10 May 2024]

The actors in this drama are very good and very cool, as well as the sophisticated world provided in this drama, it is really interesting and tense with all the problems that exist but I'm still confused about the ending and I really need the lyrics and final story of this drama, more precisely, I need an explanation and connection. And than that's why I give the rate is nine because the ending is soooo confusing but I love the story and actor. One thing that makes me like this drama is the casting of the actors and also the storyline which contains action drama but is given a bit of a romantic sensation.

Interesting premise, terribly edited.

[JW96 · 2/10 · 14 April 2024]

Synopsis looked interesting and I wanted to give it a watch, however was instantly taken aback by how many jump-cuts there are that are also badly edited within the first 5 minutes.

Barely a second goes by without the frame aggressively shifting somewhere else. We get it, you brought too many cameras onto set or something?

Tried my hardest to continue watching but honestly felt like throwing up with how wild and often the viewer's perspective is being thrown around.

It's absurd to think about the money spent creating an otherwise "great looking" tv show only to be chopped and hacked into this abomination in post. Don't bother.
