John Wick is back to Korean Underworld

This series gives me vibes of John Wick and Rome must die the American movies, the storyline is very similar but what differ it from the movies is exceptional cinematography which takes this series to a different level.

"Mercy For None" is a drama about Gi Jun, a former gangster who has lived in seclusion for 11 years, but when his brother suddenly dies similar to Romeo Must Die, Gi Jun returns seeking revenge. After a while, though, it does get a bit tiring how he just keeps killing every single person he comes in contact with similar to John Wick,

The Cinematography had done remarkable job on fight scenes that looked good and bloody. You can't help but get hooked on how Ji Sub get's out of every situation he's in, whether he's facing one person or an entire room of people.
So Ji Sub is the perfect actor for an action drama; his movements as he kills are like ninja, you can't take your eyes off the screen.
Choo Young Woo played a a dark and sinister character of Geum Son which is very different from "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call". He does a great job at showing his acting ability.
Jun Mo played by Gong Myung makes you really wish for a painful death on his part ... which he eventually gets!

Overall, a good revenge action drama, It's short and fun to watch. But if you're looking for a serious crime drama - you won't find it here.
