Whatever may Triger you!!! Don't Pull the Trigger!!!

Trigger is a mix bag of every emotions that a person/people could have, this drama is both compelling and frustrating at the same time.

1. Story of the drama is intense, bold and intricate, it trigger you to the question, is it right to take the law into your own hands? this story is not only gripping but also thought provoking social drama which showcases on the thin line between right and wrong, a man/women with a gun can take matter into his/her hands or he/she may avoid the guns completely...

2. Fight Sequences: Unlike the other shows which glorify gunplay this show frames violence as chaotic and life-altering. the fights are brilliantly choreographed.

3. Acting: Kim Nam Gil completely opposite of what he played in the fairy priest, in both dramas he fights crime but in this he is more sensible, silent and precise he gave a phenomenal performance as he balances physical presence with a deeply internalized struggle, making every decision feel layered with past trauma and moral conflict.
Kim Young Kwang brings complexity and charisma to the role, offering a chilling look into the mind of someone who thrives in chaos
The Supporting cast Even the supporting cast delivers, with believable, grounded performances that further humanize the story. Whether it's grieving civilians, stressed-out law enforcement, or morally conflicted government officials, every character feels like a real person trying to survive a nightmare.

4. The logic of the story ends where the thought starts that only hero can save the city and fights the villan and his team all by himself. , it was frustrating to see the main bully escape punishment while innocent students were killed. It made the resolution feel incomplete and unsatisfying.

And yes — I watched the entire thing in one day, the story, fight sequences, actors performances including the support cast did a phenomenal job which makes the show stood out for its moral message and forces us to confront difficult questions about power, fear, and responsibility, which is very rare in action-driven dramas.
