What i liked: - acting (especially Lee Dong Shik and Park Jung Je) - Park Jung Je's character - cliffhanger at end of each episode which would make you click the next episode - 1st half when the serial killer was still there
What I dont like: - politics and using same old trope (highest ranking police, mayor/political candidate, businessman with their connivance and betrayals ) - it fell flat when the story shifted to politics on the 2nd half; it felt too long which made me bored for most parts. It could have been shortened to 12 episodes if they didnt keep on circling around
Still gave it 9/10 for the outstanding performances.
I feel like Hiei and Botan are siblings (green haired girl and short haired guy white band) but why did he deny…
Botan or Yukina? Botan is Yusuke's guide. Anyway, I think Hiei just denied he is Yukina's brother, just to keep her safe. He might have enemies (cant really remember exactly his backstory). He is still protecting her though.
For someone who watched this a very long time ago and who already forgot the story, this live action is a delight! Kurama is still hot regardless if he's in his human form or if he's a fox. Haha.
Liked the first 4 episodes and some comedy scenes here and there but apart from these, it became flat. I just wish they could have involved more characters and showed how their lives were affected by the drugs on a more personal level, not just the push and pull between the cops and Ryu Sio. They showed some at the first half but they were shallow.
It felt so sloooowwww... I finished this in weeks when it's only 9 episodes. I really dragged myself to complete it just for the sake of finishing it. So many times they complicate things when the characters could have been honest and transparent. Don't people communicate properly anymore?
Regardless of the hate comments here, I still find this show funny and entertaining. I find Grandma's love story cute with how smitten the barista was. I'm finally seeing the sickly Uncle's significance.
I've been repeating the first 4 episodes many times already while waiting for new episodes. This is more fun for me than the OG. Haha. Hopefully this would be entertaining until the end. Though I still like PHS and PBY's chemistry in the first.
Theres a background song thats playing a flute. Everytime that plays at the background, why do I think that I'm watching Squid Game? Haha.
DooShik is still so gorgeous even if he didn't have proper skin care in about 16 years! 😍
Villains' sob stories were effectively used and I liked them. Smart use of the dirty finger. Lol! I liked how they portrayed north korean officers as human beings too, capable of sacrificing for their loved ones if need be.
Of course, I was also touched by the bond between the parents and their children, especially Jaeman and Ganghoon ;'(
Action scenes were so lit in the last 3 episodes, like I lost count on how many times I threw punches in the air and cheered for them loudly like a crazy person. Lol.
DooShik + Mihyun = Flying BongSeok with super senses; if Huisoo and BongSeok will have a baby, does that mean he'll be literally like Superman? ;)
Hoping that they will have a green light for season 2!!! They didnt explain what happened to the gifted student who transferred to another school. Did Naju's daughter really die or was it staged? I think I need to rewatch the whole thing. Haha.

Now, how do i survive waiting for the last 3 episodes? :(
I really love the partnership of Juwon and Doo Shik in action and comedic scenes. 😂
Ryu Seung Ryong is such a good actor that he is able to let you feel all the emotions whether in comedy, romance or in grief.
Of course, Kim Doo Shik is still my crush and will say it for the nth time. Hahaha.
