Disappointment!!! Confusion!!! Unsure!!!!

This series was a bit of a let down!! The trailer made it look like it was going to be really good but now after watching it, I must say, I was very disappointed. It was slow, quite boring and lacked a feeling of intensity and power. It was an ordinary series with very few suspenseful scenes. Too much talking, not enough excitement or thrill. My first problem was with the story line. There were no special moments, just mere conversations between the characters. The execution of their plan was quite interesting but it was just too slow. The process took way too long and we still didn't get to see much progress in their robbery. I mean, they could've showed us more scenes relating to the outcome of their robbery but I guess they have plans to make it big in the second half of the series. I don't know but I guess after watching the episodes back to back, I was slowly starting to lose interest as there was nothing really going on. (I really do hope Part 2 makes up for the way I feel after watching Part 1)

I also had a problem with one of the characters; Tokyo, (Jeon Jong-seo). Whoever created her role and wrote her lines, didn't do a really good job. Instead of making her look like a fierce queen, they portrayed her as a little kid with no confidence. (In my opinion) Her scenes were boring and she didn't really have any empowering moments, which made me feel as though her character was pretty worthless, especially because she's one of the main characters in this series. I will however, give an applaud to Park Hae-soo (Berlin) as he was the only real bad-ass in the group. He took the lead and did at very good job at keeping everyone in check (until they all turned on him, which by the way, pissed me off so much) as he should've.

For now, I won't make any more critiques (even though there's a lot) as there will be a part 2 of this series. I do however want to state, that I still have high hopes that this series will have a turn of events and end up being a really good one. Let's see how it all turns out. No more boring!!!! Bring on the excitement, more thrilling surprises and an awesome ending!!!!
