BRAIN vs BRAWN is your answer!dong ju is a boxer not a scholar, he thinks with his fists not his brain. Most boxers/wrestlers…
he got into trouble thats why he's here, 1st episode they said he beat up all the corrupt officers for taking bribes (again used his BRAWN not his BRAIN).
I would say maybe this might not be your cup of tea then. Dong Ju's character is one I enjoy, although at times I will find him frustrating because he acts in a method of self-sabotage, where I would have instead played a mind game (Zhang Hai from LOZH for example).
Spoilers ahead. Why did they make/write Dong Ju character to be so reckless/over the top? Walking without a plan…
BRAIN vs BRAWN is your answer!
dong ju is a boxer not a scholar, he thinks with his fists not his brain. Most boxers/wrestlers back in the day are the same, they're knuckle-heads! Literally it might feel like they lose brain cells every time they get hit in the head but that is exactly what they're like, thats why hes a special-recruit, he'd fail all the writing exams if he was to try to get into police, he couldn't even type in the group chat however hes from the streets, he can take on a fight and go head on with however many.
Also as for wrestle-mania, he actually quoted MA's famous quote that ends with "his hands can't go, where his eyes can't see", this man's 20/20 vision and strong body are the only thing he has and thats exactly what he used. From our POV's as people with brains, this decision is so stupid but to that dumba-ss it made him frantically laugh.
I think judging the fact that the male lead is not smart, is pointless because thats his character, they emphasize that every time they call him "crazy" and his emotions basically make him reckless. Dong Ju is not your ideal smart man. If he was he'd be looking for evidence instead of going to beat up Ju Yeong under the influence of his anger and getting himself in trouble.
Lastly as for Ju Yeong basically confessing to dong ju, hes similar, acts on his emotions, he blew his however many years long cover up just because his manager hit his ego. He obvi has more brain than dong ju but he's also easily influenced by emotions.
The kissing scenes must be awkward asf for anyu cause normally after a kiss scene both leads are awkward but since he does the acting alone, I'm assuming he stands there awkward asf LOL
