tvN O'PENing: The Underworld Rider (2022)

TvN‘s attempt to ride the wave of "Tomorrow" one more time

I‘m only writing this review because the information on this drama special does not accurately portray the content.
It certainly is NOT a comedy and needs a trigger warning.

I‘m 75% sure that this was written and produced shortly after "Tomorrow", another TvN production, since there are many similarities. - One might even say it’s a straight up a copy in parts.

It does start out the opposite way, since they assist suicide instead of preventing it but surely it will morph more and more into "Tomorrow". Including the coma storyline & the dog case.

However given the duration of only 75 minutes it’s lacking.
There are too many revelations near the end, making the viewer feel like they missed out on a backstory.

To fully develop the plot of suicide (prevention) and the backstory of the male lead, it would need at least another episode.

It is watchable quality wise but some character decisions seem unreasonable since we don’t have enough context.
