entertaining but that climax NOPE!
This was good. The first show I’ve seen where a girl goes after her father’s killer. They set that and the organization up pretty well.
The characters were good. Han So Hee really shines bright in this. I loved how badass and independent she was. She really had fire in her eyes and nailed the anguish and anger that Jiwoo felt. It’s impressive that the actress chose to gain weight and go to action school for the role as that shows her dedication. The scenes where she interacted with the organization were always satisfying to watch. Choi Moo Jin was a scene stealer for sure. Park Hee Soon was mesmerizing in the role and I wouldn’t mind him playing a mafia boss again in the future because he’s just that good. Lee Hak Joo was good in TWOTM but I like him much better here. He was the charming and loyal right hand man to Mujin yet he had a humane and soft side that was pleasant to see. It’s almost like sometimes he regretted certain actions but you were never really sure. Pil Do was a good support system for Jiwoo. He didn’t fully understand her but he did recognize that she had to complete her mission and offered to help her.
All 8 episodes were enjoyable in their own right but I have to admit that things got repetitive after a while: Jiwoo would be told a piece of information that she thought would get her closer to the killer only to find out the info was a loose end and she would start again. I wanna note that the intimate scene between Jiwoo and Pildo was special. It wasn’t overly sexual but relevant to the story because that was the first time Jiwoo found someone that understood her pain and allowed her to let her guard down. It was beautiful actually. The payoff wasn’t worth it imo. We never got an actual reason as to why Mujin lied to Jiwoo in the first place and it irked me even upon second viewing. My best guess is that he wanted to see if Jiwoo would become like him during the process of finding her father’s killer, so stooping as low as he does would make her worthy or something. Idk yall. That angered me. Jiwoo literally threw away her life and a great future only to discover her mentor and trusted ally was the perpetrator. I was just as livid as he tbh. Overall, entertaining show.
