While the construction thugs pulled off a kidnapping with the sophistication of a bona-fide intelligence operation. That truck manoever with the sleeping gas was expertly coordinated.

"Just who the hell are these bastards? Is he the same guy who got on his knees in front of us? He seemed like an ordinary middle-aged man. How? What the heck? Who the hell are these middle-aged men with glasses?"
🤌🏼 🤣😂🍿👏🏼

I agree with you. I haven't read the manhwa or had it spoiled, but I think that because Mole Rat is so over-the-top he must be an NK sleeper agent.

Gotcha 👍
I think of the villain's reveal as the highlight of that drama

That was a joke. But there is truth in what you say. If I hadn't liked Vincenzo so much (and wanted it to finish as strong as it started) I wouldn't still be so sore after all this time about being so severely disappointed!

Great K-Dramas are so few & far-between, it's frustrating when one gets so close only to face-plant before the end. So I'm especially happy to have Agent Kim Reactivated on my watchlist now. 🤞🏼

I couldn't have been more disappointed. If I hadn't liked this so much I wouldn't still feel so sore about it. It had so much promise and really should have been as great for me as many (maybe most) others do consider it to be. IMO Vincenzo had an amazing first half but went off the rails and became entirely absurd soon after it peaked when the villain was exposed.

FYI, there three more seasons of Leverage (US), titled 'Leverage Redemption'. Noah Wylie replaces Timothy Hutton as the mastermind (Hutton had some career-ending scandal, I don't know the details.) And Aldis Hodge's makes multiple cameos as his character Alec Hardison, but a new actress plays his sister as their new genius hacker-in-training. LR is not quite as great IMO as the original, but still pretty good!

This series is obviously inspired by Leverage, with a team of grifter-thieves who take on big-time crooks & corrupt public officials.

Even the name of this drama exactly mirrors the titles of every single Leverage episode (Eg., "The Bank Job", "The Mile High Job", etc.)

Those aren't drama episodes. The specials will show behind the scenes, outtakes, & cast interviews—and will broadcast on SBS in SK, but not stream on Netflix.

I think that says much more about you than this drama.

It'd take too long to shoot him. Their first two bullet rounds are blanks.

I'm thinking I dropped this. I am no longer Currently Watching. It seems to be merely On Hold, but no. It's actually Dropped.

I'm about to drop this halfway into episode one. So far, everyone is despicable. Loan sharks, grifters, corrupt civil servants… I really like the cast but so far I dislike their characters and find it hard to care about their goals. I'm guessing they will become semi-decent people by the final episode. I just hope I can make it to that point.

What a vulgar and salacious title

All you had to do was report me to MDL if you feel so concerned. This grandstanding is pathetic.

I couldn't watch Bloodhounds 2. I'm not a homophobe but that first scene ("Your breath smells like my anus!") turned me off. I liked the first one though.

There is so much more to this story than the age gap and age of consent.

People are curious about how KSH may have treated KSR (led her on, used her, gaslit her, ghosted her, terminated her contract, pressured her with threats, etc.), whether and how much did KSR help KSH build Gold Medalist up from scratch, whether she may have been intentionally set up to have that DUI incident (more people should hear the details of that story IMO). How about the eerie similarities between KSR's demise and the tragic fate of Sulli (along with the creepy details about what went on during the production of Real)? Also has the mystery of his brother/cousin (the CEO of GoldMedalist) been solved (was KSH really born of an incestuous relationship between their mom & her brother—or was the claim that the two were merely cousins a fraudulent legal fabrication)?

KSH's scandalous life has more twists and tropes than any of the dramas he starred in!

The Garasero lawsuits are only a subset of the gamut of the reporting on this. Don't conflate one trial with the entire scenario.

In the United States, public figures and celebrities face a higher burden of proof in defamation cases compared to private individuals. They must demonstrate "actual malice," meaning the statement was made with knowledge of its falsity or with reckless disregard for the truth.
