I am a huge fan of a revenge plot but this was as predictable as they come. The only surprise from the show was that death in episode 8. I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING and most certainly wasn't expecting it. Han Soo Hee was excellent and I loved that she was a badass! The fight scenes were great as well! The fight choreographer did great work. 9/8/25

the story is wack
Park Heesoon was so hot in the show, but the story was sort of pointless and rushed in the end, also some unnecessary scenes, story could've been better.I heard about this kdrama after watching squid game season 3, people hyped it up saying its good, but nah, honestly I just watched it because I had a crush on the actor from squid game. I liked his gangster role it was bad ass, but throughout the time I was watching the show, I felt like there are some unexplained parts? like they focus on some unnecessary details that lead up to nothing? Like some people might enjoy this show but it just wasn't for me. The filming and action scenes were good though.

Great series for strong heart people
Overall a great series to watch, not boring at all very well paced.Only for those brave enough to see a lot of bloods here and there.
Great acting for all the actors and actresses
Great actions & fighting scene, looks like real. Yes even though sometimes it's just a bit doesn't make sense (example on the last scene when Ji Woo stabbed so much yet she survived and managed to kill Mujin). Yes we all know the bad guy must die.
Interesting story, even though I already managed to guess what is Ji Woo father in episode 3.
Great directing, lighting and visual. Blood looks real, some movie the blood like tomato sauce and just too much, but here it looks realistic. Thumbs up to the director and production staffs.
Overall even though there's flaws , this is a good series.
Looking forward for season 2

Ripped my heart to shreds
The story was so well written and heartwreching and the acting was out of this world. I loved this drama, although it had its flaws I'm not the biggest fan of the ending--although I do think it fitted the story. I loved this drama, it was full of action and cliffhangers and I couldn't stop watching. It was incredible and terrifying and heartbreaking and wonderful and I would love to watch it all over again. I highly recommend if you like revenge dramas with strong leads! I also loved the soundtrack and length and felt it was well executed all around!Was this review helpful to you?
Not Only A Pretty Face - Han So Hee
Han So Hee caught my attention in "The World of The Married". I enjoyed her performance in "Nevertheless", thinking, hmmm....another pretty face has emerged in the Korean drama industry. Then, when I saw the poster for "My Name" drama, I thought interesting, with her shorter hair cut and dramatic facial and body posture, 9 episodes, nothing to loose ....... and WHAM!! I was hooked from Episode 1.If you are into big time, revenge drama, kick-ass fighting, and totally un-plugged fury from a woman, this is one drama you have to watch. I will not write in detail the story line as many reviewers have done a good job doing so. For me, the story, the plot, the acting and the directing is truly satisfactory and, the one bright star for me worth mentioning again is Han So Hee. She carried out her role so well, she had me rooting for her throughout the drama. Not only a pretty face, but a really good actor. Having Ahn Bo Hyun acting as the good cop and Park Hee Soon as the bad guy is definitely a Big Plus in this drama too.
I enjoyed "My Name" so much and highly recommend to those who have not watched it.
Cheers! Korean Drama Forever!

Definitely recommend it!
This k-drama is officially one of my favourite k-dramas ever honestly one of my favourite shows ever. The music for this show was so, so, sooo well chosen I just loved the music choice a lot it really stuck out to me!The acting for this k-drama is some of the best acting I've seen in shows in a while, these actors/actresses really had me in the show in the moment on the edge of my seat just absolutely enthralled!
Along with the music and acting that stuck out to me was also the absolutely incredible cinematic work in terms of lighting, cinematography and just the overall creative direction was just breathtaking. Just loved, loved, loved everything about it, props to everyone involved in the making of this, from pre-production to production all the way to post production everyone involved did an incredible job!

Revenge is the name of the game
This is my first ever review I wrote for a drama, I'm excited to share my thoughts on this drama.I thoroughly enjoyed this k-drama, even though it had a lot more gore than I was use to in k-dramas. I really enjoyed the cast of the show, I really think the cast did a wonderful job in playing their characters in the show. The drama is intense from the beginning to the end of the drama, it will keep you on your toes the entire way through the drama. I enjoyed the fighting scenes in the show especially the fighting scenes with the main character and Pil-do.
I would say all the deaths were justified in the show except one death later in the show and of course her dad dying in the beginning of the show. And everyone seem to not like the ending of the show, I thought it ended fine in my opinion and especially didn't make sense to have a happy ending if you watched the show the whole way through.
As much as I liked the show, I definitely don't wanna re-watch the show right now again or ever and to me it is kinda of a one time watch. And I think it also has to do is I don't watch a lot of intense shows back to back, I mostly enjoy watching romance, fantasy and comedy k-dramas. But who knows what the future holds, I might end up watching this k-drama later on in the future.
My main point is that it is a good binge show to watch especially since the show only has 8 episodes, the cast is wonderful and the show is very interesting. So I would say also that the show is accessible to everyone since majority in the world has Netflix and to me its one of the best k-dramas on Netflix.

WOW
Im so hooked on this show. The drama, the suspension, tension, acting, fighting scenes... Its sooo good. Jiwoo lost her father to mafia, she barely pulled through but then, she became one of the most badass female characters I've ever seen in movies/shows. Binge watching this show is a must because if you don't, It'll hunt you subconsciously and be the only thing you can think about. Trust me. To some, ending can be predictable (of course she found the killer, that's the whole point of the story) but it's still very enjoyable to watch. Han Seohee killed this role. It shows different people in very different situations, some falling low enough and getting revenge (like Gangjae - his actor was very enjoyable to watch even though he's the bad guy, very good quality acting, and Jiwoo) to some accepting their destiny (like Pildo, who lost his sister to drugs, he never wanted to chase her killer like Jiwon did). Last episode made me sit at the edge of the chair. The suspension was real. Tactics that Jiwoo pulled to escape police and to find the killer were so very smart, the naked sex scene which I did not expect at all, the way Pildo made her genuinely happy for some time was so wholesome. I'll never ever forget what they did to him.... I cried so so much when he died whilst holding her hand... he at least had happy last moments... Thats how I try to comfort myself. Overall, I'll definitely be watching it again soon, really hope for S2 also.Was this review helpful to you?

Very suspenseful and interesting!
I think the story was very well made! The acting was amazing I loved every actor and actress because they all did such an amazing job! I loved the entire soundtrack. I think it’s one of the best soundtracks I’ve heard this year! I definitely think it’s worth rewatch although I don’t rewatch kdramas very often. Overall I think it was great! The ending in my opinion wasn’t amazing but it wasn’t bad either I think the ending was good and bad. It was good that she finally got revenge but it was sad that the only person that truly understood her pain died.Was this review helpful to you?
