Its just not a good thing to speculate/spread rumors about people's deaths. It might be completely unrelated. He left a note, maybe they will show us what he wrote. Maybe you are correct, maybe not, until then lets not spread rumors.
I was going to give this a 8.8/10 because I thought there was some filler throughout the drama making it a bit too slow sometimes (for that perfect 10/10), but the last episode, especially when they started playing the song from "THE CLASSIC (2003)", and all the scenes following it - I just had to change my final rating to 10/10. Goosebumps, wonderful stuff.
People will hate me for this but I watched 3 eps and can't get into it because of the female lead. Everything else is a 10/10 production wise. Will keep watching!
Don't worry about the ratings too much even though its a mystery for me as well, because its such a strong start! Its on Netflix so it will get the recognition it deserves!
Mad Dog had an interesting premise at first and a good cast, and it indeed is a decent drama but I felt something was lacking overall.
From the first couple of eps we already know who the bad guys are and you can early on guess how the drama will end, and it ends pretty much just like that. Story turns out to be pretty predictable and could even be called generic. Around half of the drama the plot starts running around in circles and goes nowhere, it seriously felt that there were like 5-8 episodes where the plot almost didn't progress at all in the second half, things just went back and forth and they repeated so many plot devices (like how many times did they try to kill Min Joon? 3? 4? lol). There are also soooo many long talking scenes in every episode, especially with the bad guys and their corporate politics, which are just sooo boring. I found myself skipping alot. Maybe it would have left a better impression if it was, say, trimmed down into 12 episodes.
AND... with all this said, they still somehow managed to make the last episode feel rushed...
I would rate it 7/10 - worth a watch but not that memorable. There are many other much better dramas in the genre.
