Jin Sung carries hard in this drama, but the story is still very interesting, and all the characters are very endearing. I do also like the gradual and well-developed romance buildup too between the leads.
Not at all. Some dialogues can be interpreted to be gay, along with the incredible chemistry between the two MLs, but I didn't see it at all that way. I moreso shipped KYH with JSA and there's literally some romance between the SML and another girl.
How much more emotion do you want from him? Are we watching the same drama?? Smh
Why would he be laughing and smiling??? I just mean I'd like it if his character was allowed to show more negative emotions. Both what I see in his eyes and his facial expression barely ever changes. Sometimes it does which I like, but most of the time it doesn't. I just don't feel anything from the acting, like I did with Won Bin in Man from Nowhere. Anyways, it's my opinion. No need to agree.
His acting is far from flat wtf Did you watch the emotions alone in episode 2 with the phone licker ? And of course…

For people who didn’t know, the writer is an ex-Judge. He is a Harvard graduate, worked as the lead judge in Seoul (only elites can be in Seoul). He revealed some dirty deeds about the organization so he was blacklisted by the previous government. So surely he has a lot to say and wants to do but couldn’t do it as judge, but by writing this story, he can finally do everything he wants.
But Yohan and Gaon both felt like writer talking to himself. In one way he hopes an anti hero can come and save the world without any limits and do as he wishes to fulfill justice, but in other hand, as a law practitioner, there are grand rules he couldn’t give up. It’s constitutional, unbiased and evidence based. It’s as important as giving the defendant the punishment they deserve, the legal process of obtaining evidences and fulfilling justice legally should be anyone practicing laws’s moral value.
Anyways, this really needed more episodes or maybe a season 2. Incredible drama in all aspects but ending felt very rushed and left me disappointed cause there was so much more to the characters and plot that could have been covered more extensively. Those final minutes of Ep 15 and the final episode could easily have been better developed with more time. 10/10 until that point, but I'm sad the FL got done really dirty.
Go watch the kmovie Man from Nowhere if you really love the premise in this. Frankly, it's a lot more raw and powerful with the gore, the amazing action scenes, and especially the emotional battle that happens inside the lead for the entire movie. I think this would be great if the ML was allowed to show more emotion, cause I just see the acting as really flat right now.
Stop spoiling everything. The spoiler bar exists for a reason.
You are literally spoiling future events in the drama from Ep 5. I think it's pathetic you don't have it in you to spend a milisecond clicking a checkbox to prevent ruining people's enjoyment. I'm glad I'm caught up, or these spoilers would have definitely ruined how I felt watching Ep 5. Seriously pathetic..people like you really shouldn't be allowed on the internet when they can't be mindful of others (looking at your latest reply where you literally spoil everything that's happening in an episode).
So much potential, and the story was actually amazing until the second half when it then just started using cliches and dropping a huge problem every episode that fed into the ML's trauma. It was really great until the end of the FL's trauma arc which was around episode 5 or 6. Lee Jae Wook and Shin Ye Eun are really fantastic actors whose characters I have really enjoyed watching grow over the course of this series. However, I can't say nearly the same about anyone else, especially the SML who just seems controlled by the plot itself and doesn't show more than a single expression the whole time. Overall, plot had a lot of potential but turned out mediocre, acting and chemistry of the main leads is fantastic, and I don't care for anything else in this drama really.
Easily the No.1 Korean actor for me and among one of the greats in the West!! So excited he will be back. He never deserved being cancelled the way he was, and all for overdosing trying to control the pain from his bone tumor...
Masaki Suda looks so out of place here. Something about his face is very childish and doesn't fit the rest of…
I don't think he seems that out of place? For a couple seconds, I couldn't even figure out who he was among the poster. His face does look a bit younger though, but I don't think this will be an issue, since it says he's a strategist rather than a soldier like the others. We don't even know the strategist's age yet. Doesn't seem like an issue to me
I rewatched it. I guess it was about how she emotionally cheated by going out for ramen with her boss and the scene where she apparently got plastered and started asking her boss what she thinks of her. On the train after the ramen, she's texting her boss, and then shows a bit of a guilty face when she sees Mugi on the train. I don't think it was implied there was anything physical, or we probably would have seen hints of it.
I watched the original Cube (1998) after watching this. I actually really enjoyed this, but then I watched the original, and I can see exactly why people are so upset by this remake. I think this is enjoyable as is, but I definitely ended up enjoying the original a lot more afterwards. It's objectively paced a lot better, with better dialogue, more believable character developments, and a lot more fleshed out side characters. This 2021 remake does not feel at all like a horror, the way the original does.
