Review: Black Knight (2023)
11 July 2023
When I watch Kdramas I do it with the idea that I’m here to be entertained and I’m not here to criticise the making of the series. If I feel happy and the story flows my way. I like it. If the story is fragmented or boring I just leave and go watch another. Often you have to use your imagination to fill in the gaps. It is after all a work of fiction. This is only a 6 episode series so it is filled with gaps but I find it still understandable and interesting. You know it is my fave genre, Science fiction fantasy, here this is a future polluted world. So far I like it. It leaves enough clues for me to fill in the gaps.

5-8 is like a deliveryman warrior who is suddenly thrust into a mystery of these disappearing youth. They have been kidnapped. He becomes involved because one of the victims is known to him. He also becomes subtlely accused of the crime of a kidnapping gone wrong and the victim is killed. He is the first one on the scene and saves the refugee who was in the house almost fatally wounded.

He begins his own investigation. For myself it is intriguing because it is easy to see that these events could happen. The refugee(Kang Yoo Seok Sa Wol) he rescues want to become a deliveryman like him. 5-8 sponsored and trains him for the job. The tests ( Kang Yoo Seok
Sa Wol)goes through are brutal and life threatening but he manages to get into the finals.

He has to fight a much stronger and bigger man. It is a no holds barred fight. I leave to you to find out the result. The whole world is watching and waiting. Meanwhile 5-8 is trying to track down what has happened to the kidnapped youth.

The fight reminds me of Lee Joon Gi fighting the bigger man on “Again my Life”

All of the delivery men are too late.

I really like this Kdrama, exciting and holds my interest. The fighting is brutal and the story line adequate. Watch it if you want to see and dynamic, fast moving and gripping short adventure….only 6 episodes.

As it nears the end I get really anxious for the deliverymen as they are on the wrong side of the law. Will they be eliminated? The last episode is a tough one to watch. It’s a scary and tense watch.

This is kdrama not America .....where the main actor always wins. Keep your cool and keep watching to the end.
