'Parasyte: The Grey' Rakes Negative Reviews Amid Successful Debut

Since the announcement of the production of "Parasyte: The Grey," thousands of K-drama fans have expressed their excitement for the series.

The show was based on the popular Japanese comic "Parasite," which depicts the lives of people who become hosts to alien parasites that aim to kill humanity.

Because the Japanese work has millions of followers from all around the globe, the comic fans also looked forward to the drama's premiere. Unfortunately, their expectations weren't met.

During the press conference for "Parasyte: The Grey," director Yeon Sang Ho revealed that he altered some plot elements in order to fit the South Korean culture to cater to their viewers.

Many viewers praised the work and the synergy between the cast Jeon So Nee, Koo Kyo Hwan and Lee Jung Hyun but due to the diverse feedback, the show also took hits of criticisms.

One viewer acknowledged the perfection of the cast's acting and the work's cinematography. However, they found the show "underwhelming" despite its high scale production.

"It was a great watch but those who have read the comic will find this lacking," a fan stated. "The plot also seemed a bit rushed and frustrating."
