Premiere Watch: Adamas
by missvictrix
Time slot: Wednesday-Thursday
Broadcaster: tvN
Genre: Mystery, thriller, crime
Episode count: 16
Reasons to watch: There are a bunch of premieres to look forward to this week, but Adamas is our first, and our only mid-week drama. And what do we have to look forward to, you ask? Ji Sung x Ji Sung. He’s playing twin brothers, and I’m sure he’ll be ridiculously good at projecting two very different characters on screen (after all, he’s nailed it before)! Said brothers are trying to unravel a mystery surrounding their biological father, crimes, a chaebol family, and the vaguely referred to “Adamas.”
I certainly don’t know what this drama has in store for us, but I am truly ready for a thriller that actually does something thrilling… like maybe flip the script for a change? Because if we have yet another predictable setup with the ubiquitous Lee Kyung-young as the chaebol baddie, and the ubiquitous Heo Sung-tae as the threat, I might throw something at my screen.
TL;DR: Ji Sung squared, girl crush Seo Ji-hye, PD of Kairos, potential to play with predictable elements and lean on mystery/doppelgänger elements
