Not fantastic drama but superheroes are here

Yes, we know they are Olympic medalists, but they are human too. They fight in almost every episode. Bad people beat them up very, very badly — but no, they never give up. They don’t need medicine; they just drink alcohol. They fight against more than 20 bad guys, but walked like a they just trekking.
It feels like a fantasy drama — no one ever dies.

Especially Dong Ju — please, act like a human, bro. You need to live if you want to catch bad people. Use your brain a little bit. You think you are immortal?? How long these people beat you.

And the bad guys… there are just too many of them, so it’s hard to focus on any one in particular. For example, the commissioner hides Min Ju-yeong, but no one ever questions him about it.
Are they living in another country or what? Ju-yeong doesn’t even have the same power he had in the beginning, but the commissioner still protects him. Shouldn’t they report someone?
The news is everywhere, yet no one from the government or the police shows up.

The acting is good. They really believe in the script. Especially Han Na — Kim So Hyun is very suitable for this role. She’s very charismatic. I think this is my second favorite role of hers. The first one is her role in School 2015. Bogum is also a very, very good actor. All the actors are talented, but the script is the problem.

And the other girl — I watched her for the first time, but I liked her. She is strong.
Another one of my favorite characters is Ahn Dae-young, the other team leader.
For the first 8 episodes, I kept expecting him to be a bad guy — but he wasn’t.
I really liked that, because it’s nice to see a genuinely good character who isn’t one of the main leads.

16 episodes is too long for this drama. They should have finished it in 14.
