Jack and Joker definitely stole my heart!
I want to begin this review by saying there are so many mixed reviews attached to this drama- PLEASE don’t let those reviews make you turn away, give it a shot! Try three episodes before forming an entire opinion, I promise this gets better as it goes. Go into it blind, don’t let others sway your thoughts. It’s a fun watch and very enjoyable.
Now, there are so many factors I want to address but i’ll begin by addressing the acting. The actor that played Joke did an incredible job, the emotions being displayed on scene were so raw and honestly just watching him as a character develop was so lovely. Personally, he was my favorite character throughout the whole drama. The acting alone carried the show beautifully and there definitely is a found-family trope with how the show brings characters together.The friendships, the connections and relationships made me so soft.
Can we talk about how FUN this drama was? It felt like a journey from start to finish and it had me feeling every emotion in the book. Every heist left me on the edge of my seat and for me- even when I took breaks from watching this drama I'd always find myself thinking about it- it definitely leaves an impact and the more you watch it the more you don’t want to put it down.
Alright, let’s address the plot. It’s undeniable that there are some plot-holes or in my opinion some of the plot points felt incomplete, however, to me that didn’t bother me too much or affect my personal enjoyment. What I do admire is that they tried to give every character a moment in the spotlight to develop, however, I just wish this drama had more time.
I feel like it would’ve been so much more fleshed out if they just had more time to play with, but that wasn’t a bad thing for me. I like fast-paced dramas and this to me was fast-paced. I was going through a major drama slump and it cured it, it kept me focused.
In my opinion I did wish for a different ending. I can't get into it because I want this review to stay spoiler free but that didn’t take away from me enjoying the rest of the drama. There were some factors that i’d consider as ‘unrealistic’ and to people that may have caused some complicated opinions but I didn’t mind it. Don’t go into the plot with the idea of it has to be top-notch quality and super realistic because it isn’t but, that to me does not take away from enjoyability.
Every character has their faults- no ONE is perfect. Everyone is caught doing an action that is wrong but what’s so special to me is the way they bounce out of their faults and try to develop and better themselves. As someone who normally watches shows with a high emphasis of interest with characters and character development this drama fed my interest. This drama definitely has beautiful subtle details and it was beautiful to watch.
To me if I had to rate enjoyability it’s a 10/10 no doubt. Since I do have my own issues with the plot it did drop it to a 9/10 but it’s still a drama i’d recommend greatly. I probably will catch myself missing this drama for a long time and would wish I could wipe my memory to rewatch it.
