Hon started off well for me. But I felt that the plot simply fell apart soon after fourth episode or so. i wish it was a 20-episode drama, it wasn't thorough and developed plot-wise. it's like yeah the audience can kind of get the gist of the theme, but that's about it.

Hon was one of the rare Korean horror stories that I really got hooked on because being a horror genre enthusiast, I love a well developed plot. While I haven't watched the final two episodes, it does seem that towards the final few episodes, there's a lag in the tempo of the drama, making the last couple of episodes sort of slow and filler-like. I would have loved for the proposed-then-abandoned extension was executed so that the PD would be able to really flesh out everything instead of just ending it abruptly. But I do like Hon, despite of everything, because of the risks they took in casting and producing this.
For me, it's one of the finer dramas this whole year. It's a pity the ratings weren't better but screw the ratings!

I was thoroughly entertained by Hon (and by that I mean totally creeped out, in a good way). This is the first time I've ever seen Lee Seo-jin in anything; I thought he was great and Im Joo-eun was fantastic for a newbie. I've still got to watch Episode 10, but from reading this article it sounds like it's even more of a shame that they didn't extend the series like they planned. JB, seems like you said something once about this show being perfect at around 12 episodes? If I'm remembering that correctly, looks like you were right on the money. Another couple of episodes might have made all the difference in allowing them to shoot the ending they wanted.

I didn't spend too much time analyzing the plot or looking for any particular "social messages", but I did appreciate that I never figured out what was going to happen in advance (so far, anyway). Overall, I thought it was a solid effort; a great cast and plenty of chills and thrills. Well worth watching...in the daytime, with all the lights on, of course. ;-)

Hello. I was shock when I found out that this one has ended. Because I thought that it would be longer. I think that it started off recently, maybe in August. this one maybe is interesting... i didn't watch it but i will try...

That’s my problem in Kdrama they started it so perfectly that they end it with so many headaches in tow. I kinda feel the sentiments of the funs, I for one had been a victim of this that I started falling out of love of Kdramas and so I instigate to be more selective until developing a routine of knowing first the ending before starting a drama lol. But it’s better than suffering the heartache on something that you’ve spend weeks to months watching just to be slap with a terrible and sad ending.

Hon is absolutely one of the best dramas. i've seen, I'm sure you could probably understand why. (for those who watched it with an open mind) I'm quite dissapointed that Korea did not enjoy it as much as us(outsiders) did. The story flowed smoothly , the acting was above average. (especially Ha Na) The story was even segmented (Ha Na's story + Ryu Jin's side plot)

I expected this ending. IT'S A HORROR DRAMA , I am definately buying this boxset for sure. I can re-watch it many time. I loved the cinematograhy...such as the Suicide scene in episode 1, that's was beautiful! The music was well done too!

I feel bad for MBC, did japan buy the rights for this drama? I hope they do >.< Hometown Legends II was EPIC fail (for me)

do they write the script/plot as the episodes are being shot and aired? I was trying to understand if the lackluster ending is due to the script itself or something else -- like the acting or directing...

LOL....on the pic, to me it looks like the actress forgot to put on on skirt or trousers. The top is sooo short. Especially her tighs being so white.

I watched the last episode yesterday and I thought it was okay. I kind of expected the ending too although it felt a little bit rushed to me. I think the 2 leads were very good, especially the newbie actress, she acted out the possessed troubled character fantastically (she has the eyes for it). Overall I enjoyed the drama a lot and hope there are more horror series to come in the future!

Are you still up for the recap for Hon? Pretty please?

Oooh let's have a Hon alternate endings contest =)

Actually I wonder what the PD had in mind for an ending?

Random question.
Am I the only one who thinks Im Joo-eun's legs in the top pic look strikingly creepy.

I think this drama could have benefited from a few more episodes. From episode 7(I think) onwards things sort of began to fall flat. It felt a bit rushed. I think one of the reasons why, there should have been more development between Ha Na and the evil lawyer, and her and also, Si-woo.

i am disappointed with the ending and I agree this drama could have benefited with few more episodes , as it is, there are lots of loopholes

I am not into horror films. But since I saw the name Lee Seo Jin ,I eagerly buy the DVD set. Surprisingly, I watched them 3 times. At the beginning I was so scared with the usual scary scenes and music. But for the second time I watch with wide eyes, and found many cheesy scenes. The thunder, the dark room....blood every where,very usual drama horror scenes that we can found in many horror movies. But somehow I found many interesting facts...the relationship bet Yoon Hana and Lee Ryu is interesting. Too bad it doesn't develop a lot and the end of the story is too rush. I still hope the drama is extended since there are many unclear holes.

The storyline is interesting...., too bad is too short.

they should have hired Kim Tae Hee to have played the role of Hana...it could've helped the ratings....too bad...the drama just fell apart!

Lee seo-jin is a great actor. He did a great job in DAMO alongside Ha Ji-Won & Kim Min-Joon. I was kinda disappointed with how short it was considering that the storyline was good, all the characters were great, the ost was perfectly fitted and the 3 lead characters had a wonderful chemistry. I wish they could all act again together, maybe in HWATU?

It started well but just got worse and worse after a few epis. The actors did a good job though.
