The Whirlwind - When the truth doesn't win over a lie, a bigger lie wins!

If you intend to binge all 12 episodes at once, I think we should stop a bit, because 4 episodes per movie is enough for one day. The film takes place at a very fast pace; The moves, political tricks, and calculations of the two forces will make you temporarily turn off the screen and take a sip of water and breathe to continue returning to the movie.

The Whirlwind builds on a familiar premise in films pursuing typical political themes: depicting the disastrous struggle in the corridors of power in Korea - a place covered by the shadow of corruption. There, the trio of Prime Minister Park Dong Ho, Deputy Prime Minister Jeong Su Jin and President Jang Il Jun were each other's reliable allies in the progressive political camp. However, when Su Jin and Il Jun became entangled in corruption scandals one after another, Dong Ho realized that the ideal of a fair society was gradually crumbling and tried to make a radical change by cutting off his roots. Bureaucratic roots in government are none other than the existence of the President. It is worth mentioning that the methods of enforcing justice and protecting themselves of all three are very cruel, cunning and sometimes morally ambiguous, blurring the lines between good and evil, justice and injustice. labour.

With anti-heroes and villains as the center, The Whirlwind shows the dark side of politics, where there will always be the presence of wolves in sheep's clothing and monsters in hero's clothing. The use of a group of characters who have figuratively become “monsters” due to their beliefs and basic human desires turns the film into a battle in which evil clashes with evil and lust. Confronting desire helps The Whirlwind escape the familiar characteristic of the conflict between good and evil.

Summary:
Advantage:
A movie with a solid script full of unexpected details that keeps viewers in suspense until the final episode.
The film's cinematic quality is evident from the poster, with artfully arranged images and close-up shots that deeply capture the emotions of the characters. Iconic political contexts such as the Blue House, the National Assembly or the National Funeral... are presented solemnly and majestically, enhancing the vivid quality of the film.
An excellent performance by Korean actors and actresses.

Defect:
As time goes on, viewers feel like the same situation is being repeated over and over again, even though the content is clearly different. The struggle taking place between Dong Ho and Su Jin is still the central theme, occasionally bringing surprises but in a few details, but the audience can still guess what happens next. Compared to the whole, although it gradually weakened in the following episodes, the movie still had a spectacular undoing in the final episode.
And the character assistant to Su Jin, who is famous as an assistant to the deputy prime minister, but why did he get scammed 3 times in a row? I was also tricked by the same trick, a bit confusing.
