Trigger is more than just an action thriller — it’s a gripping, emotional, and thought-provoking drama that dives into the chaos unleashed when guns suddenly flood a gun-free society. Starring the phenomenal Kim Nam-gil and Kim Young-kwang, the series explores the fine line between justice and revenge, law and survival.
Kim Nam-gil plays Lee Do, a former sniper turned cop who’s desperately trying to stop a wave of violence that’s tearing the country apart. Kim Young-kwang is chillingly calm as Moon Baek, a mysterious broker who seems to help, but clearly has his own hidden agenda. Their tension, chemistry, and emotional conflict drive the show’s moral weight.
What makes Trigger hit so hard is that behind every action scene is a story of pain — victims of injustice, people pushed to the edge, families broken by a system that failed them. It raises difficult questions: What would you do if the world stopped protecting you? Is violence ever the answer? What does it mean to be responsible for someone else's life?
The ending is intense and deeply human — it doesn’t offer easy answers, but leaves you reflecting on how much trauma one society can carry before it breaks.
⭐ Final thoughts:
Trigger is bold, raw, and emotionally layered. It delivers thrilling action and heavy moral impact in every episode. One of the strongest Korean thrillers in recent years — a must-watch for anyone who loves meaningful stories wrapped in suspense.
