The premise is good, but it doesn’t quite live up to its potential.
The drama started good but ended badly. I think the only people who really knew how to use a gun were the first guy and the fat student, while the rest clearly didn’t. The ahjumma and ahjussi were just unnecessary character additions with guns. Their flashbacks were boring and pointless, and they didn’t even use the guns properly—they just held them.
I also didn’t like the second guy because he kept preaching instead of shooting. He was just an idiot. Park Gyu-jin was also disappointing; he got swayed by some cheesy line like, “I don’t know what you’re going through, but it’s not too late, tell me the story.” Honestly, that was one of the worst parts of the drama. If this were an American series, the characters wouldn’t be affected by words like that—they’d be written as real psychopaths or sociopaths.
Only Lee Do actually fought against the people with guns. The rest of the police did basically nothing, which made me go, wtf. The gangster subplot wasn’t really needed either. While watching, I just wanted the depressed characters to actually go wild and shoot everyone. Who cares about the gangster story? Episode 5 was especially boring, with too many flashbacks and pointless chit-chat.
Episodes 9 and 10 were really bad. I expected an epic one-on-one fight between Lee Do and Moon Baek, but it never happened. The ending was also disappointing because they didn’t show the real chaos. Instead, we only got quick flashes, barely a second long. We couldn’t even see people shooting each other or the aftermath with the dead bodies. It felt censored and unsatisfying.
