Twelve is a show that feels like it was written by a twelve-year-old. The plot moves like it only had twelve episodes to work with, the story could’ve been told in a twelve-minute short, and the final fight against the big bad lasts about twelve minutes. I honestly can’t remember the last time I was this surprised by how bad a show could be. This show was written by Ma Dong Seok for Ma Dong Seok to shine. But it failed even in that task.

I still don’t understand how that cast read the script and accepted the offer. The only reason the score isn’t lower is because most of the cast is at least okay. Not even Kopiko would be crazy enough to sponsor a second season.

Just for fun, here’s a list of the terrible elements of the series:
• Samin has powers and a sword… but chooses to fight hand-to-hand against someone whose only skill is “punches good.”
• One punch... and the big bad, who literally consumed the dragon soul and part of Haetae’s power, is defeated.
• Mirr does absolutely nothing the entire show except get defeated and captured.
• Haetae is mentioned constantly but we don't learn much about him at all. Also defeated in a single punch.
• The dead angels coming back… why?
• Bang Ul doesn’t speak and then decided to speak in the last episode.
• And finally, the worst decision in the entire show: the amount of screen time given to the old lady, who contributes nothing to the actual plot. We get more of her backstory than we get about what happened to the angels during the war against evil. The time spent on her is only second to the amount of time they are eating or talking about food.
