At the end of the year, another top big-budget Korean drama came.
Kong Liu + Pei Douna, the absolute king of the explosion lineup.
Sci-fi + suspense + thriller, genre gimmicks directly full.
After more than two months of loud publicity, it was officially launched on December 24;
8 episodes were all released in one breath, which really made fans feel cool enough——
The Silent Sea
I have to say that Netflix is really rich.
The top configuration and the inhuman funding of the trenches visible to the naked eye are really the most common ways of playing Netflix in the past two years.
On the first day of broadcasting, "Silent Sea" won the 7th place on the Netflix TV series chart, and after three days of launch, it rushed from 7th to 4th.
Although it is not as popular as "Squid Game", it is also a high-rated Korean drama on the Netflix platform.
But as soon as the heat came up, there was controversy.
Recently, "Silent Sea" was also exposed to plagiarize the 2009 British drama "Doctor Who: Water of Mars", which is a classic science fiction drama, while previously, "Silent Sea" claimed to be based on the short film of the same name.
Stills from Water of Mars
The story takes place in the world of the future.
A group of people lined up in an orderly manner at the entrance of the Central Hospital.
Suddenly, a loud noise broke the silence.
Not only did the people not panic, but they rushed to the sound and frantically robbed.
In the midst of the chaos, the background sound is the final warning issued by the police:
"Please go back to where you are, and if you don't back down, we're going to fire."
What are they grabbing?
In fact, it is very ordinary - water.
After the great drought, the living environment of human beings is getting worse and worse.
The earth's water resources are depleted, accelerating a sharp decline of 40% in 10 years.
In order to control the amount of water drunk, the government has established water intake and quotas, which have been resisted by the people.
Against this backdrop, humans began to look into space, most recently the moon.
Five years ago, a major accident occurred at the lunar Bohai Sea base.
According to the government's notification, 117 astronauts died from the radioactive material leak.
Among these people, there is the sister of the heroine Dr. Song.
Because of his sister's sacrifice, Dr. Song's water level was raised to the highest level, golden.
But in her mind, there was always a question.
Five years later, the authorities decided to permanently close the Bohai base.
But before that, it is necessary to travel to the moon again and recover experimental samples stored in the base's freezer.
As a result, astrobiologist Dr. Song and the elite team of spaceflight leaders led by Captain Yi were assigned this task.
At the pre-departure meeting, authorities did not explain what the experimental samples were or the disaster five years ago.
Just tell everyone that after the moon landing, they have 24 hours to collect samples and then return.
Faced with such limited information, Dr. Song questioned:
"Do you really want the mission to be completed?"
On the other hand, the male protagonist, Captain Yi, is in opposition, saying that as long as the task is carried out according to the regulations.
After all, most members accept this task to raise their water levels.
In today's world, water really equals gold.
But everything didn't go as they had hoped.
The spacecraft malfunctioned and was forced to deviate from course and land on the lunar surface.
The landing point was on the edge of a large crack, and after a group of people disembarked with their equipment, the spacecraft completely crashed.
At this time they were 7.6 kilometers away from the Bohai base, and there was a wounded man in the team with a rib wound.
There is no gravity or air on the moon, as quiet as the Dead Sea.
Is it possible to return to this journey with a survival rate of less than 10%?
Led by Captain Yi, the team marched on foot towards the base.
Unfortunately, the injured team member died on the moon because his lungs had been punctured.
After the death of the team members, the team was in a panic.
Fortunately, before the oxygen ran out, the remaining team members reached the base.
As a complete space research base, there are a variety of charging equipment, oxygen production equipment and pressure transformer equipment.
The players breathed a sigh of relief.
According to Captain Yi's orders, they only need to find and recover the samples as planned, waiting for rescue.
But when he arrived at the base, Dr. Song was full of ideas.
There does not appear to be any so-called radioactive contamination referred to in the report.
So what was the real reason for the death of my sister and 117 astronauts five years ago?
As the team explored the interior of the base further, more strange things happened.
First, a body was found at the valve opening.
The deceased didn't look like a researcher and had a gun next to it.
Based on the scan information, it could be a mercenary.
The doctors on the team also found something strange, and judging from the surface of the body and the state of the lungs, the deceased seemed to have drowned.
But how can there be so much water at the lunar base?
Captain Yi then found more bodies behind a door.
Obviously, they were all researchers at the base, and their deaths were consistent with those of the mercenaries at the gate.
On the wall, there are also traces of struggle and escape.
Even more disturbing.
In the base's warehouse, signals of unknown creatures were detected.
Apparently, the truth of the accident was concealed.
The experimental samples that the squad wants to recover are not so simple.
Even within the squad, everyone has "ulterior motives".
The spaceship crashed, was it artificial or accidental?
Someone in the team secretly passed on the news, is there an inner ghost?
Captain Yi, who has been secretive, knows these hidden feelings?
The only thing that can be determined at present is that in order to find out the truth of that year, Dr. Song will definitely "do things".
But today's base is in crisis.
In this "ocean of silence", their fate is no longer in their own hands.
Overall, "Silent Sea" is Netflix's last work, and the texture is good.
They are very mature in acting and special effects.
But back to the story is really general, European and American science fiction routines do have a lot of shadows.
And this Korean science fiction pastime is still OK.
