Wonderful World Episode 5 Review
Episode 5 of Wonderful World is an emotionally captivating thriller. Be it the well-written dialogues or the flawless narrative, the meticulous detailing in the drama is commendable. The mystery and suspense elements make up for the long, 1-hour watch. The journey of self-healing and emotional trauma is beautifully showcased in Wonderful World.
Cha Eun-woo as Seon-yul may have less screen time than Kim Nam-joo's (Soo hyun), but his acting chops are admirable and this new role suits him perfectly. From riding bikes and doing dangerous jobs to working as a mechanic, the layered character is enhanced by Cha Eun’woo’s charismatic personality.

Episode 5 also highlights the unlikely friendship between Soo-hyun and Seon-yul. However, things quickly escalate to anger and resentment in the climax scene. This leaves you on the edge of your seat as you are left waiting for the next episode to unravel the mysterious connection between them.
