The fact that the two top comments give it a 6 and 5 is just crazy to me. Honestly I've watched over 350 kdramas and given 10 to less than 30, this being one of them. I had given it a 9 when I first watched it, but on this rewatch I bumped it up to a 10. I think maybe its cause people were expecting it to be more about zombies and action, when although that is pretty prevalent, it mostly focuses on the politics that takes place in the apartment complex and how far people are willing to go.
i wish i could forget the first season so i can rewatch it completely blind like i did the first time. i finished…
Don't feel bad. I watched it while it was airing, never came back to it and have yet to watch the 2nd season, but I still clearly remember the finale too :)
Honestly, this kdrama basically has all my fav genres. A male lead whos a lawyer but can also fight, and a feisty female lead, who are just great together. Despite that, I just lowered my rating from 8.5 to 8. I think its worth watching, but it stretches some plotlines too long for my taste.
A lot of people seem to be wondering if Seoul Busters has any romance, so I’ll try to keep this short and clear.
There’s no romance in the typical K-drama sense where two leads end up together, but romance does exist in the story.
The male lead, Yubin, has flashbacks of his girlfriend, but she’s no longer in his life and so we are left waiting to see if she died or if they broke up. Jung Ryeok has dated a lot of women but never fully moved on from his first love. Jeong Hwan is married with four daughters, and some episodes dive into how much he loves his family and the tough choices he faces—decisions that could help his family but hurt the team. Min Seo also had a past relationship, and there’s an episode showing flashbacks of her breakup and why it happened. As for Tan Shik, there’s been no mention of past or current partners, so it’s safe to assume he hasn’t been in any serious relationships. So yeah, there is romance, but it’s more in the background rather than a major plotline like in typical K-dramas.
I'd say Taxi Driver, although no romance, but s2 kinda shows us they plan to go in that direction in s3. hopefully
Yh but the female lead in their taxi service is the FL in s2 and shes much better and has the connection with the ML and she's also in s1. The FL in s1 is a prosecutor and she's briefly mentioned in s2.
