Hyun Bin finally goes berserk
The first two episodes failed to grab my attention because the story felt like a politically grey drama, which is a genre I usually know isn't my type. I was on the fence about whether to drop the series entirely or give it one more shot, but pushing through to episode three completely redeemed the show for me as the pacing picked up significantly.
Hyun Bin’s performance here appeals to me far more than his role in Crash Landing on You. In CLOY, his character felt surprisingly dull, but he shines as a villain here. It is a reminder that he should take on more complex, dynamic roles rather than playing it safe with flat characters. Beyond his performance, the casting for the Baek brothers is phenomenal; you could easily convince me they are real-life siblings based on their screen dynamic.
the part where those entitled POS higher up offered a drink to the prosecutor by taking his shoes off and pouring it there for him to drink it ?! i would've just walked out then and there this is degrading to a person.
