I am on the fence about this...

I have honestly been on the fence about this ever since I finished watching it yesterday. I watched all of it in one day; I found it intriguing enough to binge watch it. BUT!! I did not like the last episode and the ending. Why? Why? WHY?!

But let's start at the beginning shall we: The storyline was good but I feel like this whole thing could have been avoided if the hooded cop just took off his hood and didn't bang on the door as if he was trying to break it down... A simple "Jiwoo, it's the police, please open the door" would've changed the whole story but without it we would not have had the story they wanted to tell. Fair enough; I'll accept the massive misunderstanding that the whole story is based upon and we'll put that aside for now.

If you really do not want big spoilers then stop reading here...!

Second and most importantly: I'll focus on the last episode :|
Where on earth did the writers find this last episode? In the depths of the darkest pit or something??? That intimate romantic scene was completely out of place and so unrealistic! Why would a cop sleep with a suspect? I understand that there may have been some feelings before all this happened but that is not the time or place for that... A police officer/detective would know how bad the implications of it would be! Any evidence or testimony from him would be ignored now due to personal involvement. I think they just added it to make it so much worse when he gets shot... That is my next point: why did he have to die? Why couldn't he just be badly injured like most of the other characters in the series and at least recover? And if he had to die then why does she get to live?? Either way, there would be no happy ending for them even if he had lived. And what happened to her after? The ending feels empty and vague.

I am happy with the fact that it was just 8 episodes but I needed a fuller ending... I needed more loose ends tied up, especially with the members of the narc unit.

Lol, I just realized that this is more of a rant than an actual review but I hope someone finds this useful somehow.
