In early 2023, I stumbled upon a captivating drama titled "Island," spanning two seasons with a finite number of episodes. For those seeking a cozy holiday watch, especially with a loved one, or for those opting for a solo viewing accompanied by a warm cup of hot chocolate, this series is highly recommended. The narrative centers around a girl born into a wealthy Korean family, blessed with magical abilities unbeknownst to her. Raised by her father, who lost her mother during childbirth, she embodies the typical confident, educated, and self-assured protagonist found in Korean dramas. Despite her charitable nature, and self-defense prowess, her aunt, her father's sister, engages in a fierce competition for inheritance rights and company control. The conflict escalates, leading her father to make a drastic decision to send her to Jeju Island, marking the beginning of a compelling tale. Accompanied by her trusted butler, whom she regards as an uncle, the story unfolds on the island. Two handsome men enter her life—one from her past, serving as a lover, and the other, into a supportive ally as surrogate younger brother. Her lover's brother played a role of foe in her life. The series delves into her journey of self-discovery, unveiling her supernatural powers and depicting how the involvement of these three men propels her into a battlefield to save her long-lost love. Her lover, patiently waits for her across multiple lifetimes, adds an emotional depth to the storyline. With impressive graphics and cinematography, "Island" blends the supernatural with a compelling narrative, offering an enjoyable viewing experience. To unravel the intricacies of the plot, it's best to watch and savor each moment without revealing too many spoilers. Enjoy the journey!
