starts off fairly strong, but am at ep 7 and struggling to maintain interest in the story… someone pls tell…
okay it gets better because it’s growing on me… but the story is still a little bit too draggy for my liking. watching this for the cast and fighting scenes mostly
this is sooo unhinged with the dark comedy and is definitely a surprise for me, i was expecting something more like Moving but this is good in its own way too
they toned up the comedy this season, especially in the first few episodes and it took awhile to get used to it. there were parts that suffered from weaker writing (plot conveniences etc.) but there were also moments showing brilliant writing and emotional depth. i’m glad they didn’t go all comedy and remembered to keep the emotional aspects of the characters and core story, which is fighting for justice and helping the weak. the scenes where we got to see more emotional/vulnerable sides of Father Kim were my favourites and helps to add depth to his character. as always, love the found family dynamics and even the villains were pretty fun. the topic handled is by no means light at all - and i’m surprised the show managed to keep things light while not ignoring it’s severity. would love to see more of the Gudam family!
watching this for Zhao Jin Mai, loved her since Reset! probably need to 1.25x speed this
okay finally finished - felt the ending was quite rushed but i enjoyed the politics, nothing unpredictable and i was expecting that kind of ending. why did SRQ have so much screen time in the last episode though… the chemistry between all couples and the comparisons between the 1st and 2nd lives were the best part of the show. 8.5/10
the cinematography and acting were top notch here - it was a little too slow especially in the first half for my liking but i liked the theme explored and the psychological depth. officer gu is my fav <3
ended up liking this way more than i expected, 10 eps kept the plot tight and i loved how the story never lost its central focus on Dong Jae. Nam Wan Seong was a textbook villain - but that didn’t matter, because his character served as a tool/instrument to help Dong Jae grow, and to help viewers see his struggles with how his corrupted past still affects his life now. even the investigations were simple - but they managed to show different sides of Dongjae. he was never a hero, but never a villain either. this show manages to bring out the “grey” areas in his character which makes him relatable. bonus points for the ending!
this show has so much heart, 20 episodes went by in a flash. i love all the characters and how humour was used appropriately throughout, and how cases didn’t drag for too long and were relatively simple. they tied to the background of every character nicely. serious and emotional scenes had a fair share, but they always balanced it out with comedy after. will miss violent crimes team 2 and thanks dong bang yu bin for getting me addicted to chocolate
on ep 8 and i appreciate the slow pacing, and how the relationships between characters were slowly fleshed out, apart from minor plot holes here and there. poor jeong woo😭😭 it was a true uphill battle but at least detective noh was there to support him! (and i liked how he was rationale and skeptical about everything at the start but slowly trusted jeong woo - that was satisfying) this is a good thriller!
bonus points for the ending!
