This was both painful and beautiful in equal measure. The mystery before the reveal kept me guessing and questioning everything, and it was handled so well. And the love story… gosh. It was meant to save them, but somehow it became the very thing that ruined them both. I loved every second of it. Painful in the best possible way, and a thoughtful, appropriate portrayal of such heavy topics. 10/10
I really need to stop dismissing shows with ratings below 8, because this was so good! The premise was interesting from the start, and I really liked the execution too. It kept me guessing and wanting more the whole time, and the acting was great as well.
The prosecutor literally looked more psycho than the serial killer. Such a huge ego! 😬 She was frustrating because, personally, I don’t really mind vigilantism (lol), but it created an interesting moral dilemma.
I would say so. It’s one of my favorite dramas, and Wang Duo completely won me over with his character. You should check it out and decide whether to keep watching after seeing a few episodes. 😊
This was so good! At times, I genuinely had to pause and discuss the strategy and characters with my watching buddy because there were so many schemes, betrayals, and layers of deception that you never really knew what to expect.
I love how smart ML is and how completely done with life he seems, while still being vicious and driven by revenge. He was fully prepared to stain his hands with blood to achieve his goals, and I honestly loved that the drama never tried to sugarcoat it. What I appreciated even more was that no one constantly preached about morality or acted morally superior.
Supporting characters were interesting and likable too, for the most part (shout out to Wang Pu!!!). I especially loved Zhang Mo's character development.
Also, I loved the portrayal of all the villains, especially how they were shaped by their traumas and how those traumas ultimately guided the paths they chose in life. In the end, all of their conclusions made perfect sense, and the closure felt very satisfying.
I want to watch this, but want to stop before the sad parts that leads to the bittersweet ending. I know they…
Episode 35, basically. By that point it seemed like he had overcome his initial PTSD and they were ready to return to some kind of normal life away from the war. The really heavy stuff starts in episode 36.
They absolutely nailed the mix of dark comedy and war drama. The gallows humor never felt forced, and it reminded me a lot of my country’s cinema, where that kind of humor is pretty common in serious stories. The acting was really strong too. Great film overall.
Wang Pu is such a charismatic character. I mean, he’s obviously a psycho but I can’t help liking him, and it’s not just because of his pretty face. It’s his whole personality: that childish cheekiness mixed with psychotic cruelty. I’m intrigued!
His first appearance when he lied his way through the market completely won me over, lmao.

Hopefully we won't have to wait too long for it.
