Confusing in a good way, but too loud
This is one of those dramas where you just want to send 60% of the characters to anger management and find yourself astonished by the fact that all still have their jobs.
But if you look past the constant yelling, outbursts of rage and fighting you will find some pretty sweet volnarable and lovable human beings...
The story is interesting, confusing in a good way and keeps you (kept me) on your toes for the most part. The characters are complex and the line between dream/reality good/evil are very blurry which is something I personally really appreciate.
Officer Yoon, the one female officer is really cool she is smart, funny, bit too emotional and shows a very subtle way trying to make her mark without becoming macho herself... in a macho environment. We also get to see more or less subtle acts of sexism and harassment who cater to my personal prejedus of how it was to be a woman in the police force in the 80s. It also showed how little a man had to do to seem dreamy and make a girl feel respected (basic human curtesy). Subtle but very real portrayals of day to day seism in the work force. Her acting however seemed a bit off, but it could be her role too.
The friendships and bonds made here are definitely a good point, as well as the mystery but the best and most scary part is still the blurr... But a lot was ruined by the yelling and my constant wish to send them all (yes all) to therapy to work on handling their emotional issues.
Definitely a decent watch, just mind the yelling and emotional reactions.
