A Short, Sharp K-Drama That Demands a Season 2
Villain is a compact yet gripping K-drama that proves eight episodes can still leave a strong impact. From the first episode, the pacing feels tight, with each chapter adding layers of tension and mystery. By the end of episode eight, it clearly feels like the story isn’t finished yet—I’m definitely expecting a season two.
Yoo Ji Tae’s presence is a major highlight. If you enjoyed Korean Money Heist, the familiarity is there, especially with him leading the story again. His voice, calm yet commanding way of speaking, subtle smile, and broad-shouldered screen presence make every scene feel controlled and intense. He doesn’t need exaggerated expressions; his restraint makes the character even more intriguing.
What I enjoyed most is how the story plays with twists. Just when you think you understand the direction, it quietly shifts and challenges your assumptions. Villain isn’t just about action or power—it’s about motives, manipulation, and hidden sides, leaving you curious long after the final scene.
