Really good, but it's so hard to find good subs for the series. First few episodes were so badly translated, it was hilarious at times. Still can't get over subs translating everthing as 'baby' lmao but the series was great, fights were good, and the potential season 2 is so exciting!
Episodes 6-8 (second watch):NOW I remember why I down-rated this show after liking it so much through episode…
It's also absurd to move in with a guy who tricked you, beat you up and left you on the outside in the trash. And yet Chihiro stayed. Because let's be honest here, Chihiro keeps on making poor life choices, and going into that van instead of running away was one of them. Then again, he just wanted to protect that girl, knowing if he run away with Haoran, bad guy MAY target her next just because.
Imo, rest of their actions also made sense, they kept on making poor choices because of their trauma as well as desire to protect the other! I got kinda stressed after reading your comment, that it's gonna be bullshit ending, but the flow of the show and heaviness as well as love between characters stayed the same, so. I guess to each their own :D
From the beginning to the ending - simply amazing. It's a heavy story, often times hard to watch, but all choices and emotions feel very raw. It's a good series, worth watching. First episode may be a little... boring? for some. but after the second one, you quickly get hooked!
The most annoying thing about this season was how weak Woojin was. Every fight he just... keep on losing. And wasn't he supposed to be on similar level as Geon? Obviously, Geon is better than him, but there shouldn't be THAT MUCH of a bridge between their skills 😠bruh. I really liked these two being a Marine Duo, but in this season there wasn't all that much of it, so eh. It was also annoying how Villain's action had little to no consequenses for our main boy. In s1 they killed two important main characters, and here they couldn't even seriously injury anyone! Someone got hurt, but then boom great, quick recovery, and then the same happens to the next person and so on. Boring, honestly. But when I was watching it I was way to engaged in the plot and the characters I like to see all the annoying stuff, so there's that. But anyhow, season 1 was wayyyyyy better, that's for sure! I wonder when, or if, season 3 will drop and if our main duo will be actually a powerdul duo again, as they were at the end of season 1.
the only downside of season 2 is that it doesn't have enough Han Ho's screen time. I feel like he was more of a side character here, especially if we compare his screentime to season 1 :(
Not sure if it's an unpopular opinion, but I personally really enjoyed it. Maybe I'm too emotional or maybe I don't watch all that many court dramas, but characters as well as cases were really interesting. Usually in this kind of dramas we focus of welathy vs poor (so bad vs good), but here? The first case was about dog! The way pets are treated! It was so uncommon and interesting! And then we got all those different minority groups being represented! You don't usually get immigrants' stories, and disabled people usually are only here to be sad and pathetic to make you cry, and yet, they had strong and annoying personalities, they weren't your typical victims with no flaws. Some cases were more show than the actual trials, but it was still very good. And main cast! Some court dramas (like Beyond the Bar for example) focus solely on two main characters and that's it. But here? All these ppl from the ProBono were actually characters with flaws and goals and backstory. The least developed was our strong dummy but apart from him, they all got a little time to shine, for viewers to get to know them. I like when the group of people in the show actually exists as their own characters instead of being just mains' friends. They also have a strong friendship and loyalty. Some scenes of these five going together reminded me of my beloved Vicenzo. Personally, I would recommend that series wholeheartedly to anyone who likes court dramas, teamwork and characters who are more than mains' friends/teammates. I would also love to see second season someday, if it was possible. :)
Not only a great revenge series, but also has really great male friendships! It was just sooo satisfying to watch, and certain scenes made me lose some tears too... Honestly, great series, you'll should give it a chance <3
It was good but not extra good. It was very interesting at the beginning but at some point like 7/8 ep started to get a little boring to me. I don't particularly like those "do i love him or not" tropes and misunderstanding tropes, so there's that. Plus is that there were "steamy nights" which is nice because they are adults, so it's normal. Worth watching (especially bc of cast!!) but its not must watch
this is not movie for everyone. It's so traumatizing, those scenes from assaults are so disgusting, and those poor poor kids... gods, never movie hit me as hard as this one. im just.. Speechless.
fr, and im only talking about s1, but the fact that show pictures do hyun as an awful boyfriend just because he can't be there for his gf all the time is ridiculous. He did say that he won't have much time for her and she didn't mind that. They both knew what they were getting into before they started dating. And honestly the fact that Tae O kept getting into their way was so annoying. I understand if he was simply worried but he was so obviously jealous that Song Yi started spending time with a man that wasn't himself. It's just annoying me sm, bc they made it seem like person who is broke can't date (it didn't have to be love that ends with marriage but they could make it work for a little longer if not for Tae O). I understand that in s2 more things are happening, but she show already starts picturing do hyun as an worse person in s1, just because he doesn't have much time or money. "I can't go on a dates or buy you things" bum, tae o buys her things "I may not have much time or be able to walk you home" bum, tae o does that bc hes rich and doesn't have to worry about money, while hes shitting on son yu boyfriend. I still can't get over the fact that they portrayed do hyun as the worst person on the earth just because it started raining when song yu was walking home from their date. that's so ridiculous but its just my personal take and im not planning to watch s2, so theres that
but the series was great, fights were good, and the potential season 2 is so exciting!
