First off, this is 12 episode. That was a really good decision.

This is kdrama so "Sarang" is mandatory.

The concept that I found novel was that some people *love* trading stocks for sake of it. Maybe it is true may be it is not. But I always thought it was thrill or money or desperation for money that made people deal is stocks.

A question I got from one of younger generation relative was this: If you say you can't win against house (and you can't), how come there are people who gain lot of money through stocks?

My answer was the profit they make has to be compensated by losses everyone else encounter.

This thought or variation of it, is not present anywhere in the show.

This is the only reason why I had to give 5.

Other than that, great watch.

This is a good sci fi. It has science and it has fiction. And not much else.

While watching it few times I was reminded of "The Abyss". It's not exactly that but it's not not exactly that either.

Each character gets enough time. I found the main character "Dr. Sigur Johanson" to little over the top emotionally.

There are relationships involved but if you are looking for *science* fiction then you could close your eyes and let that scene pass. And there aren't many of that sort.

The big question, how do you portray other civilization is still not solved. So it has taken the only path it could. It's not satisfactory (at all) but no matter how would author choose to portray it, mainly their physical appearance, would fall short. So it's understandable.
