This show starts with such a strong and tenacious female lead. I have a soft spot for badass female characters and Ji Woo has guts and the grit to propel her forward in her quest for revenge after watching her father get murdered. She pushes back as the police seemingly bury his murder by being taken under the wing of a notorious crime boss that claims to have been like a brother to her father. He helps train her and stoke her fire for revenge sending her into the police academy to catch her father's murdered while also being his eyes from the inside.

This show was very predictable. You knew what was happening from the very first episode and just stuck around to wait for her to figure it out. That left no true suspense since almost every confrontation you could see coming. You also have to suspend belief a bit as well because some aspects do not make sense if you think too hard on them. For example how she got into the police academy under a false name and background, which is believable until they mention that she never registered her fingerprints. They also mention a mole that set up all the cameras around the crime boss but then completely dropped that plot after it served its purpose. And then you have the secondary antagonist who was a former member of the gang that got kicked out after attacking Ji Woo; for as brutal as the crime boss is it did not make sense that he would let him live after giving him a reason to want revenge and then not notice that a few years later he was stirring trouble and making a new drug until he was at his doorstep. It is just hard to believe that a top crime boss for over a decade wouldn't notice a competitor emerging until that guy comes and slaughters your well trained thugs.

Mostly what this show delivers on is violence and intensity. There were several scenes that I had to look away from the brutality of it. And the actors did an okay job in my opinion but they also kind of felt one note with no real depth to them. Ji Woo is tough as nails and the first two episodes showcase that well but after the time jump and she joins the police academy she ends up becoming kind of boring. She is quiet and stubborn and that is about all that is left to her. Do Kang Jae wanted to be at the top of the gang but after getting kicked out becomes a murderous druggie and his performance felt over the top. Pildo was a stereotypical arrogant cop. Choi Moo Jin had some more depth to him in his character, especially as you watched him struggle with having grown to care for Ji Woo and the situation he was in. There was also the awkward romance storyline that was thrown in toward the end that for Pildo felt more believable than it did for Ji Woo.

The ending came out feeling rushed and incomplete to me as well. So this is not a bad show but it also was not that great. If you want to watch an intensely violent show that is quick then this will hit the spot but do not expect much from the plot or characters.
