So... everything happened in the day and night after JinMan's "funeral". It felt like a lot of time passed, since…
Well he did something. He was pretty banged up. So he was clearly in a fight. I don’t know how much time passed between his “suicide” and his funeral though.
I don’t know. You would think there would be some reaction from the Babylon people if Jin Man was attacking them. But clearly there is enough of a story to tell, and part of that must be what happened with Jin Man after is fake suicide, why he is so beat up at the end, and what happened to Bale. So I’m wondering if by the end of this season if Bale is dead and that’s why Jin Man is so beat up. We didn’t see what was happening within Babylon since they sent the twins in. It could be Jin Man launched an assault on them after that.
But something clearly happened to Jin Man. So is season 2 telling that story or continuing the story. Or both? It could follow this seasons format and tell what happened to Jin Man during this season in flashbacks while also continuing the story in the present. Which isn’t a bad idea either. I liked this style of story telling. It worked well for this show and executed well.
Argh! I don’t know whether to me frustrated are not!
Glad we got Honda’s backstory. Of course made him dying even more heartbreaking. Interesting that he was the original shop for killers.
Was kind of sad Jun Cheol died so early. Was hoping he would be helping Jin Man from inside Babylon longer. And for him to just get killed by that stupid women when it was clean Jin Man wasn’t going to kill him.
I wonder why Pasin decided to disappear with Min Hye. At least it seems like she is still alive. And does Pasin even really have a family? Because it doesn’t seem like that. And why did he steal everyone’s money lol.
And finally, which is of course everyone’s question. What the hell was Jin Man doing that he got beat up. I am glad that he wasn’t just sitting back waiting for Bale to show up like some people thought he would do if he was alive. So it’s clear Jin Man was fighting his own fight. I wonder if he brought the fight to Babylon.
So I’m predicting a season 2 showing how the events played out from his perspective during the present day, maybe with some flashbacks. I imagine when Jin Man showed up at the end he has killed Bale, but we won’t see that until we see Jin Man’s fight play out. Also curious how the taxi driver and the other guy played into it.
Share your theories with me and feedback! I’d love to discuss!!!!
Jin Man took a picture of Ji An’s ID because he knew he needed her ID number then to reprogram his code at that…
So you’re right, the taxi driver did put down the funeral home and offered a different one, it we have no idea which she took decided on, so I suppose it wasn’t relevant. I thought it might have been thought if he was faking his death, I mean you need a whole team involved with that. So who knows how the taxi driver was reverent or if Ji A changed the location based on his recommendation. We could find that out later. Omg so may speculations and unknowns/ I think we create more questions then there need to be. But I trust the process.

You may be right. I need to rewatch the scene. I’ve rewatched so many scenes. But I agree the morgue driver is suspect. I don’t know if we will see him again but I think he was at the very least keeping an eye on her. Maybe he one of one of those out there to protect code green.
Alright, I’m done posting and reading comments until I’ve watched the last episodes tomorrow. I hope it’s amazing. I have my entire morning planned around it. 🫡
What’s crazy is they always have him done up with makeup and filters and he is hotter all rough looking. They need to let that man age like the fine wine he is.

Okay, I thought he was a policeman. For some reason. But you don’t even think that is stranger that he happened to pick her up and suggest a certain morgue? It’s all suspect lol.
Are there any kdramas/cdramas like this? I need an immediate replacement once it ends on Wednesday. :(
Sorry, I have another post, I’m going through my watch list. “Confessions of Murder” Assuming you watched “The Glory”? “Flower of Evil” maybe, I never liked it as much as most, but you could check it out if you haven’t already. “Love Me If You Dare”, I’m not sure this quiet fits what you’re looking for. It focuses on a serial murderer but also has random murders through the beginnning episodes because he is a criminal profiler so he works with the police. The end does pick up pace though and becomes more intense. It is a really good show and there is nothing straight forward about the main bad guy, there are a lot of twists up until the very end. “Missing You”, she loses her detective father when she is younger and decides to go after the killer. “Monster”, he kills her sister, who takes care of her (she has a mental disability) and they start targeting one another. “The Gangster, the Cop, and the Devil”, it’s pretty good, just a movie. “The Veil”, it’s a spy series. Main character lost his memory so he doesn’t know what happened and the series is spent uncovering that. A lot of good fighting scenes. “Bad Guys”, I can’t remember exactly what it was about, I have it a 7.5 so it must have been so so. “Come and Hug Me”, this one is really good. But I’d be surprised if you haven’t seen it already. I don’t want to spoil it for you. But it involves a serial killer, the ML is a cop. There is fighting. Also involves flashbacks that slowly tell you the real story of what happened in the past. You know there is more to the story, but it’s executed well and make you feel confused as you are slowly fed information.
I was going to suggest Hello Monster and My Name, but people beat me too it. Nowhere Man is good.
You mentioned that you have not tried any Taiwanese dramas. They are actually really good. One of my favorites is Lost Romance. It’s definitely not in the genre you are looking for here. It a good romance/comedy/fantasys/supernatural kind of. But it is so good. Once of my top five dramas. Id recommend at least looking it up on my dramaslist to read the synopsis.

And you don’t know yet that the protagonist doesn’t have plot armor because we haven’t finished it.
