Mars, the revolution mascot!

The poster caught my attention initially to watch this drama and the plot twist at the ending of first episode got me hooked.
The overall plot is quite straight forward Zero vs XROCKY, which is done through the sub-plots and their connections.
As story goes on we get to know more about each character as well.

Acting is okay, Though the ML's acting needs polishing, sometimes his expressions are awkward, aside from that he is good in the action. the side characters were okay as well, some better than others. (Karen & Kyoka got me more emotionally attached to their characters due to better acting)

Among the 9 episodes, most were good (it's not that it had out of this world twists but it was entertaining and done well), in order to enjoy this drama, you shouldn't take things too seriously, there are things that you might need to let go & ignore in one or two episodes to enjoy the progression of story & its revelations.
Don't take it too lightly either, this drama might make you cry once or twice.

The ending concluded 90% of what it was building to an end and left a 10% hope for a possibility of continuation (I would like to know more about Zero's identity).
If they ever make a 2nd season, I'll watch it.

A dull and disappointing drama with flat and clichéd characters

Warning: This text contains some spoilers.

I was very disappointed by this drama. It was so dull that it made me want to fall asleep. I expected more from it when it first came out. I can endure a boring drama if the plot is good, but that was not the case here.

To me, a good plot means having well-developed characters and a coherent story. However, most of the characters here were flat and clichéd. For instance, one character with a moustache was only there for comic relief, with no growth or depth. His friendship with another character was meaningless, as he quickly got over his death and forgave the ones who caused it.

Another character with glasses was given the typical nerd stereotype, and we knew nothing about him either. The same goes for the guy who died. These characters were unoriginal and predictable.

The main character of this show was probably Zero, but even he was inconsistent. He took revenge on many people, but not on the one who killed one of his teammates. They seemed to ignore that part of the story.

I also don’t understand how all of the team members forgave K without her apologizing, and even welcomed her before she exposed her father’s crimes. She was responsible for the death of two people, and she had the audacity to say she didn’t regret it. The guy with the moustache was very close to the guy she killed, but he seemed to forgive her too. This made no sense at all.
