Couldve been perfect if it werent for bad pacing and story missteps
I adored the beginning of this drama, but the pacing is godawful. Things are always done either too slow or too fast, with the ending being the worst offender. What in the world even happened there? It definitely felt like a 16 episode show cut to 12 in the middle of editing or something. The leftover bluescreen and the ai usage on the fake usb during the final episode also took away alot of the quality very suddenly. Im very curious about what happened behind the scenes that caused all this.
Plot wise it started interestingly, but it felt like a pidgeons nest the way nothing really came together. The final mission especially made zero sense, was handled way too quickly and way too sloppily. After all that big talk all that happened was a big confusing fight between everyone, how did this end with everyone in jail? How were the north koreans so easily subdued if they were supposed to be these big scary guys? How is Bulgae safe, wont NK keep coming after him? So much weird stuff.
Despite the strangeness I did enjoy the drama apart from episode 12. Its cute, especially the gang members romance moments. I did get stuck on this show and binged all 12 episodes within a very short timeframe..
Side note, Bulgae was my favourite character but the way his memories returning was handeled made me sad. It was like his previously shown personality was completely overwritten despite the earlier conversations he had about his past pointing towards a cleaner merge..
