Good Plot, Disappointing Ending
I’m honestly a bit conflicted on how I feel about this show. it started really strong and had me on the edge of my seat, but the middle does drag a bit. Honestly, it could’ve been 8 episodes.
One thing I’m really confused on is if Jihoon is alive? They make it seem like he’s dead dead and they even tell Kwon Seokjo that he’s dead (Jihoon being really his only reason to maybe stay alive now), but then he texts Joomin at the end? was that real or her delusion of grief? I mean, I hope he’s alive because his death was bullshit.
Another thing that rubbed me the wrong way was Muchan in episode 10 to how he was at the end of episode 12. He was hellbent on saving Minsoo, who very much deserved to die, with the victim being the daughter of someone he was extremely close to. But, episode 12 insinuates at the end that he decided “ah screw it, now that everyone I care about is dead because I tried to stop them from seeking justice, I’ll become dog mask now.” Like brother, you could’ve just joined the train from the beginning and most of them would still be alive/around.
Also, unless I missed something, they kept it from us the entire show until the end that the reporter was the one who killed Hyun’s parents?? I’m sorry but the tension and anger from Hyun to the reporter absolutely was not strong enough if that’s the case, because their dynamic just seemed like they’ve had disagreements and backstabbing in the professional lives.
Again, it was a good show with a mostly enjoyable
plot, but some choices just seemed very out of character for some of them. Some stuff just didn’t add up in a way that would make sense. Like, after all that, you can’t tell me they really let the assemblywoman off the hook for everything?? When they had it lined up that her husband was leaving her and they found evidence, so she completely screwed??
I guess I do have a lot of complaints, but I did thoroughly enjoy the first 2/3 of the show.
