Full of grandiose schemes that fell flat.
I was one of the people who got excited prior to the airing of BM but when I finally watched this, it was truly a disappointing experience to me. I did not enjoyed 80% of the drama. Because I don't want my precious data used to download full eps go to waste so instead of quitting early I had to force myself to finish this one like I did with Snowdrop, Jirisan.
Going further, my review is full of spoilers so read at your own risk.
I don't feel the plot at all . They tried to do everything heroically but the execution just felt flat and cheap to me. That Big Mouse organization was only powerful in name but not in reality. Thanks to big mouths who overhyping this organization from the start, they made me expected more when I really should not. When the real BM was revealed , I was so disappointed . He had no charisma & no authoritative vibe as a person who supposed to be a leader of such organization.
Miho's death was cruel ,pointless and unnecessary. Can't they atleast wait until CDH got his punishment to kill off her character mercilessly like that? They claimed many got cancer as a side effect of that radiated waste water , most of them took some time before they died on their deathbed like that Tak guy but not with Miho. One day she just dropped and not too long & gone just like that. If they tried to show a lot of time has passed in prior to her death I don't buy it. She deserved better .
We never really see what they really do in that secret lab. What was that NF9 anyway? What was the end product and its use ? And that darn paper that started everything. I was rather surprised that other than Prof Seo no one else in Gucheon even bother to check water sample while this shit been happening for 30 years that made many lost their lives . Where were the victim's family members? I want to see few of them at least tried to oppose that 85 years old grandpa. Sure sure that grandpa was so powerful...
I don't get husband and wife vibe from the main leads. Their relationship was more like two close friends who were supportive of each other.
The ending also was kinda out of place and so sudden. You would think 16 episodes with 1 hour of each episode would have less chance of having a rush ending but you're dead wrong . They just need 10 minutes, just 10 minutes to explain the most important part of the story. Meh. If they want to pull the same vincenzo ending to the bad guy, why bother tried so hard to be the good guy from the start .They should do it earlier so that not many episodes wasted just to get the bad guy behind the jail and BM would end at 12 episodes which would be doing us a lot of favor and save our time maybe I would rate this even higher than a 6. I don't really mind realistic ending because in rl that ending would happen but I don't like the way they did it here.
In conclusion , BM for me was the most disappointing drama of this year. I don't recommend it unless you're a big fan of Lee Jong Suk or Yoona or Kwak Dong Yeon.
