Great show with a terrible ending.

"The Perfect Deal" is a gripping and intense thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat from the very first episode. The show seamlessly weaves together a complex web of mystery and unexpected twists that will leave you guessing until the final moments.

The pacing of the show is relentless, ensuring that there is never a dull moment. Every episode ends with a compelling cliffhanger, making it nearly impossible to resist the urge to binge-watch the entire series in one sitting. The writing is sharp and clever, with cleverly placed breadcrumbs that lead to shocking revelations as the story unfolds.

As the tension builds, "The Perfect Deal" skillfully explores themes of survival, doing whatever it takes, and the blurred lines between good and evil. The show keeps you guessing, challenging your perceptions.

The ending is a masterpiece of incompetence, a symphony of letdowns that leaves you questioning the very essence of storytelling. "Jae Hyo" sending "Jun Seong" to die at the hands of the loan shark was nothing but a cheap and lame trick by the writer to get a shock value and to make the viewers hate Jae Hyo so he can kill him later, it's so lame that he didn't even write a reason for that action. All Jae Hyo's reactions through the show were normal and survival instincts and he would have never done that. And i know nobody will admit it but "Jae Hyo" literally carried this show on his back while the other MC "Jun Seong" waned and cried for the entire show.

this show's conclusion is not just bad; it's a travesty, a testament to creative laziness and a complete disregard for the investment viewers have made . So, congratulations to the writer for crafting an ending that will be remembered for all the wrong reasons – a masterclass in how not to conclude a series.
