Gang violence dramatically portrayed!

This drama was honestly such a pleasant surprise for someone who has been k-drama sober for a few months. The plot was amazing, unexpected but amazing. Actors were also top tier. The only thing that made it drop to a 8.5 is the unnecessary sex scene Netflix dramas often have.

Let's start with the plot. We have a pretty stable plot, with an introduction to the two (but not all) of the main characters in the first episode. It's quick, but not too quick where it doesn't lay the foundation for its character. It quickly build the antagonist but tears down this assumption we had throughout near the end. I love it for it's simplicity and quick wrap-up of 8 episodes.

Moving on to the actors. Literally 10/10. Let's start with Han So Hee. I knew her as a soft, easy-to-manipulate girl from "Nevertheless," so at first, I thought she wouldn't play this bad-ass role well. I was wrong. She showed her resilience by proving that she could act these roles. Moving on to Park Hee Soon, this is the first time I've seen his work. I'm very very impressed by how well he pulled off his character and his character's seemingly mysterious aura. Lastly, we have Ahn Bo Hyun. He really does the best in this genre; he pulls off his role as a policeman very very well. The chemistry he had with our main character wasn't the best thing ever but also wasn't the worst thing ever. I feel like it could have developed better if the drama was a bit longer, but I'm thankful that they didn't force more episodes to include romance (The random sex scene made it a lot worse.)

Overall, I highly recommend this!
