Shin's Project Episode 11 Reactions
This was a very emotional episode. The director thought he had hidden his tracks well with both Catherine’s father and Jun’s killer. He is the most disgusting of the lot because he hid under cover of decency and concern for patients care. Shin abducted his would be murderer and things got interesting when killer’s phone went off. Shin’s team did an excellent job of delegating responsibilities and closing in on the actual culprit. Choi’s detective team and Philip helped Shin have the appearance of staying on the right side of the law. Philip is learning negotiating skills from the master and even tho he was brought to task for his shortcomings, Shin thanked him for his sincerity in keeping him alive and negotiating for him. Shin’s grief for his son is palpable even 15 years later. His team comes with food and drinks to try to get him back on track and again judge Kim is there to get him up and share a meal. The team’s toast at the chicken shop was a nice touch. They finally all meet and share their support for getting Shin through the negotiations. Choi proved that the medical director was trying to kill the killer and everything else they got on Shin’s phone as he recorded the interaction of director and killer. The medical director was very arrogant in thinking he had control of the situation and when he said Jun’s death was just an accident, Shin lost it. That director deserved every blow he received and then some.😝There was an epilogue with this episode so not sure if they combined the last two episodes or still one left. With the ending it could go either way. Choi did some big healing when Shin shook his hand and thanked him. He has spent so long carrying the guilt of that incident and never expected forgiveness. Shin is healing too as he remember his son and can now smile. It has been a long road for him and his friends, but the healing has finally really begun. There will now be a conflict resolution squad working with the court and just as when started, there is a small business that needs resolution quickly. This time Philip wants to try handling it. Jang is getting married so unclear if coming back or staying where he is. They showed the director fighting for an appeal so maybe last episode is still coming. This show was interesting in how all these cases intermingled to form a team and bring justice for Jun’s death. Everything was brought full circle and nicely handled. They have paved a way for a season two if they choose, and if so, I will be sure to watch. The cast and production did an excellent job of showing us the trials of a negotiator and how gray some things turn out to be. This is definitely worth the watch and I am hoping for a season two with a new department added to the court.
