Not bad but its not that great
As I have given the title for this review, I feel the same about all the aspects of this drama. Story, characters, music overall is good but it could have been much better given that the drama has great casting and great premise.
I have to agree that the drama lives upto its name, we have "eat, love and kill" well connected to each other with the supernatural phenomenon between male lead and female lead. 2 episodes into the drama and and we have the whole setup. Neighborhood where everyone is very suspicious regarding past and present events. Each characters are introduced very carefully and every character is a piece in the puzzle of knowing what happened in the past and what is happening in the present timing.
So with this great setup I did enjoy the overall thriller, romance and the dark comedy tone of the drama. My only problem is after 10th episode story becomes draggy and things become repetitive. They will spend the whole episode to reveal only one thing about the mystery and it is not a big reveal as we can pretty much guess it watching the episode. Female lead and Male lead do look great together and their acting is great but somehow their romance feels more scripted. Honestly at the end I was just there to see the end and literally did not care about whether they really end up together or not. Similarly the side characters are also great but the interactions between characters does not have that charm.
I would like to mention that we do have exception where the side characters do shine. I loved the Grandmother, mother, daughter trio . The bickering at the breakfast table where the conversation varies from food, nagging related to job hunting to the problems related to murder is hilarious. I enjoyed every scene between these 3 women. The emotions, comedy, fears and the unconditional love they have for each other really stands in each scene thanks to great acting. Also we are in for a good surprise at the end regarding grandmother and mother apart from all the other mystery. Did not see that coming.
All and all it is a good one time watch drama.
