Memorable and captivating
This drama hooked me from minute one and what can I say? I loved it.While impersonating his twin brother to seek revenge, White is thrust into a life that is so very different from his own. By joining Black’s gang in their fight for freedom, human rights and equality, he is imminently pushed outside his comfort zone and begins to question the life he led before.
The plot was beautifully executed. The suspenseful elements kept me glued to the screen.
Sean and White’s relationship was very sweet and I liked the way everything was resolved in the end, since there wasn’t too much drama. Black’s friends Gram and Yok had their own little stories to tell as well, which proves how carefully the characters were crafted and thought through, with everyone given enough screentime.
For me personally, Black and White’s relationship was one of the most heartwarming.
I would have loved to see more of their story, especially on Black’s side.
Even though they were torn apart when they were children, their connection still prevailed, leading them back together eventually.
Speaking of which, one thing that completely blew me off my feet was Gun‘s acting, especially considering that he impersonated both Black and White. He perfectly acted out the contrast between the two brothers, highlighting their differences as well as their similarities.
But not only Gun, the entire cast and crew did an amazing job at bringing the show to life.
The cinematography, acting and directing was on spot. I really liked the soundtrack as well. I can’t count how many times I shazammed the background tracks.
One of the messages I got out of this drama was how important it is to raise your voice against inequality, in whatever form it may appear.
Even though it may seem as though you’re alone in the fight, once you are courageous enough to act, it will prove how many people are willing to fight along with you.
All it takes is for someone to take the first step, and the difficulties and risks that come along with that are clearly depicted as the characters in this story push forward.
Topics like this are still relevant and undeniably present in today’s society, making the drama all the more valuable and important.
