This review may contain spoilers
Phew from where will i start. I thought this kdrama would be like others with a satisfying ending but it was not. Overall it was very good, lots of unexpected plot twists, and Son Hyun Ju's acting was out of this world. I felt his desperation and frustration. The ending was well made but not what i wanted. The one who caused all the tragedy and was the initiator of the chain of killing and misery, Kim sang Hyeok, didn't get the right punishment and gets to live on with his life; if he didn't sa the judge's wife she wouldn't die, the kid wouldn't seek revenge and none would've died. Two characters that i hated the most, the boss wife who thinks she gets to kill anyone and gets away with it (and she does), she first killed the grandmother and daughter who were innocent and then kill the judge's son and then she plays the victim at the end. And then there's the prosecutor bish, if she wasn't so dumb she wouldn't have called the boss' wife and the kid wouldn't have died, so basically the kid's blood is on her hands (oooooo she pisses me off so much), but hopefully she will be the one who takes down the woowon group. Anyways, good kdrama! Was this review helpful to you?
A story that depicts the reality of life
This might be the first and only story that represented real life problems and struggles and how people survive them. The storytelling, production and acting were undescribable, i lived with the characters every event of their life and felt their emotions, never in my life have i wept and sobbed this much. The show makes you rethink everything about your life and did a very good job in representing how parents and children feel, it makes you realize that it's our parents first time living too, that they are experiencing new things and still figuring out how to live all while having to take responsibility. We view our parents as these invincible creatures who have, or rather suppose to have, the answers to everything because for us, the children, they are our world and we cannot understand that sometimes they too are confused with life, and they were also children once but they had it way worse than us, and from their trauma they did more than their best to protect us from what they went through. But again there's the story of Ae-sun and Gwan-sik that makes you pray for the kind of love that they had, because as i see it they wouldn't have been able to survive and achieve what they achieve without having each other's backs.Wow, I'll never forget this series, for me it pained me to watch it as i hate seeing parents suffer but i had to finish it because it is so rare to find such good tv shows.

Must watch!!!
Im going to rant about this kdrama. I started it because i love Go Jun's acting and that was the best decision because Black out is on top of my favorite kdramas. The scenario and plot were perfect, the acting was so good and most importantly the ending didn't feel rushed like most kdramas.I usually finish a 14ep kdrama in 2-3days but this one took longer for me because of how irritating and angry i was getting from the characters and plot twists lol. They were perfect.
I highly recommend this kdrama if you like the mystery, legal and investigative tv shows. 10/10
