Thirty Too Late

I have never been so frustratingly angry with a series but real life is exactly like that. We can't go back to right the wrongs especially when we stood silent then and let the evil prevail.

Tae Ju's costly mistake was putting his sister before himself. Younger Tae Ju was rash, righteous and angry. Older Tae Ju was tired, reflective and apologetic. From an objective pov, his sister did not deserve half of the care he gave. How can she call Cha Mun Jin good?

Those lost to the evil that gripped the town never regained what was lost. Lives lost, futures destroyed because politics, pride and public performance fell under severe scrutiny while searching for a solution.

The entire cast did well. Tae Ju and Ji Won's frustrations were felt. Si Yeong became more twisted than Gi Hwan. The cries of Seok Man and Hye Jin's parents were haunting.

This would probably alienate those wanting retribution for all but it ended as it should. Let reality prevail. It didn’t start with perfect intentions and it ended in the same vein.

A very frustrating but satisfying watch.
