No Way Out: The Roulette Episode 8

Gripping, brutal and punches pulled!

I entered this drama with an open mind and wondered what fresh story line it offers. To say the least, I was bowled over by the intricate woven plot that linked our protagonist Baek Jung Sik played by the amazing veteran Jo Jin Woong to each richly matured and well-rounded characters played out from the first episode right up to Mr. Smile at the end of episode 8. Superb acting from all the cast, Yeom Jung Ah, her role as a shady, manipulative politician is a standout, that said, each main character is just as devious, manipulative with their own agendas. Lots of pain and punishment along the way, I averted my eyes from a couple of scenes, other than that, I loved it. Recommend to anyone seeking clever, strong storytelling along with thrills and spills that can get messy yet a satisfying finish. Hoping for season 2 soon.... it has an open end.
