Mrs. Cop Season 2 (2016)

Kim Bum!!

This drama had a well rounded plot with decent side characters. The characters were all likable, but were all pretty cookie cutter basic, we didn't get to know any of the good guys well enough to love them which made me root for the villian at times. The main girl was great in her role as leading detective, however Kim Bum was phenomenal in his role. He has more depth in his twisted character than all the heroes combined, also his acting is extraordinarily frightening! His darkness, devastation and strange devotion to his mom is so perfectly displayed. His devil smile and cocky eyebrows keep you loving to hate him and not wanting it to end. The ending wrapped up as well as I expected but honestly if Kim Bum was not in it, I would say it's fine but you could be watching better things. His performance carries the show, honestly, it's impeccable. His psychopathic subtly is strong enough to keep you afearing for your life and the life of others, the upsetting thing is you find yourself wanting him to win, because he's just too good. That and you really feel for his poor mom whose in denial. They kept showing the main girls family to get us to care but its all pretty tedious, while the Baek and Mom character on the villains end, bring out pity and concern from the viewer. Its sad when you hope a main good guy character dies just to make things more interesting. Kim Bum (Much like Tale of 9 tailed season 1) outranked everyone else once again, he's supurb.At the end of the day I'll wrap it up by saying Rojoon's last words; "It was fun."

So I finished watching this and decided that it was a good watch. Some episodes were really slow. I usually binge on Kdramas if they keep me interested but I found myself watching maybe about 2 episodes a day because of the slowness at times.

In my opinion the series picked up about the 13th episode but it kind of fizzled on the last episode.

Coming up on my 1 year anniversary of watching Kdramas I've learned how the episodes work. I've enjoyed a lot and dropped a few. I was going to drop this one but I gave it the benefit of the doubt.

There are about 4 cast members from both series which I loved. From the comments on those who watched both series but enjoyed the second cast better than the first I will have to say I liked all of the casts from both seasons. Each brought their own style and everybody could fight which was even better. There wasn't a weak one in the bunch like the usual. I liked the two cops who were always partnered together. The female was strange but I liked her because she was tough. I also liked the fact that there wasn't that fluffy romance that makes me want to grab a hurl bag. I hate that kind of stuff and that didn't happen here.

I got tired of the main bad guy real quick. The constant grinning got on my everlasting nerve! I remember him from Hidden Identity and couldn't stand the 'I don't care' facial expression. I know he can't help the way he look but I wasn't too fond of him in either series.

Both Mrs. Cop 1 & 2 held their own. The premise was almost the same but it carried differently which still worked.

The last episode just didn't do it for me. I don't know what I was expecting but there was too much fluff and the closure I was expecting happened real fast towards the very end.

Even still, this drama filled my void for a few days. Now it's time to find another one to binge on, lol.
