Why Am I Here

This show started off so well. A corrupt police officer with bipolar disorder, forced to repent by his second personality. It has a good pacing, and the first half of the show was really good. The mixture between action and comedy, specifically brought by the character "K" was also fresh. However, the writer decided to write the rest of the story like a fever dream.

There are two highlights in this show, drug cartel and Ryu Su Yeol's dark past. The writer forcefully tried to connect these two premises, and it caused a lot of makjangs. It would be more logical if Su Yeol was the one who were searching for his dark past. Instead, this villain out of nowhere poked Su Yeol memories. Su Yeol himself didn't act like a cop. He always came to the bad guys with nearly zero preparation, yet he always survived thanks to the ridiculous makjangs. There were a series of murder after murder following everything Su Yeol put his hand on, but the police never took any prevention. On the other hand, the kidnapping of Han Jae Hui was strange. She was very strong when fighting with Do Yu Gon's gang and many more events, but she was powerless against three druggies who would like to kindap her? Other than Su Yeol, everyone was missing the backstory. Jae Hui was mentioned to lose all of his wealth, but nothing explored more.

As much as I love the cast, I don't think Lee Dong Wook is the correct cast for this. He doesn't seem to have a good fit to become a police. Wi Ha Joon performance is the highlight for this show. Han Ji Eun and Kim Hieora did pretty good too.

First part of this show is quite enjoyable, but the sudden shift in the second part could make you raise your brows.
