This season is honestly the best season for me. Everyone has such nice personalities and always supporting each other. It's natural to feel disappointed and sad when you lose, but after that, they still treat each other like brothers. They still look out for each other. It's the kind of healthy competitive spirit that's very pleasant to watch.
I started this season only knowing less than a handful of them, but now I'm a fan of almost every one of them.
I'm really glad he took the role of Junmo, because he did a splendid job. The K2 was one of the early kdramas I watched because I liked JCW in Suspicious Partner. Loved his character and action in K2, but the romance plot was cringe for me. Haha. When he returned after his military service and did all romance genre, it just didn't grow on me, though I understood why he chose those scripts coz those were mentally and physically less exhausting. But thanks to If You Wish Upon Me, I got to enjoy another drama of his. The Worst of Evil is honestly another drama that would make you fall for actor JCW. As mentioned in some of the comments below, gray characters honestly suit him so much.
what exactly is this new schedule they are following?
Yea, but Bloodhounds was a Netflix exclusive drama, just like D.P. or A Time Called You. Netflix does that for their k-dramas. On the other hand, dramas like Moving or Worst of Evil, they're exclusive on Disney+, and they also air 2 episodes a week but on the same day. Killing Vote and this drama air on SBS and MBC respectively.
K-drama episodes that air on these networks getting postponed is a usual occurrence. But it's usually not that bad if we still get 1 out of 2 episodes that week. That's why I don't know why they came up with this broadcast pattern when dramas would suffer once they are postponed.

Afaik, this drama and another 12-episode drama are only airing one episode per week. They're not even OTT platform exclusive dramas. I don't remember dramas only getting to air 1 episode per week before this even if they were less than 16 episodes. I could be wrong though.
At least in the Killing Vote they got us hooked before delaying shows. I'm losing interest already with this one
I was actually losing interest in KV coz they postponed it for 2 weeks when the suspense just started to build. Good thing the comeback episode was good so it got me hooked again. Hopefully for this drama, this will be the only time they postpone it.
Ugh. The thing that happened to Killing Vote is happening to this too!!! TT^TT whyyyyyyyyy. It's already bad enough that they're only airing one episode per week......why did they even start adapting this new broadcast schedule pattern for shorter dramas! It's such a bad idea.
Yayy~~ after having to wait so long for Bo-ah to come back with a drama since she did TOTNT and Doberman, I'm so happy she's confirmed for her next drama (and it's sageuk!!! AAAHHH ♡♡♡) while her current drama is still airing. And double Jaewooks!!!! Omg. Happy to see Lee Jaewook paired with a noona again though. Hehe.
YASSSSS!! With so many different and new characters we haven't seen, I was really hoping this universe would get expanded in the live action!! Kang Full's superhero stories are such a breath of fresh air and I absolutely love how he humanized them and made them more relatable. If Kang Full gives the green light too, then I'm definitely all for it to happen!!!
People can never be pleased. If a character dies, people are pissed. If no character dies, people say plot armor. Lol. This series is about bandits fighting for their people. Romance isn't even the main focus. But I do appreciate how it made things a little more interesting, especially after the ending. It also shows what people had to give up in order to fight.
Many people say that the ending was bad, but I think it got me even more hooked because it complicated things even more, especially with Hee Shin's ending. I think this drama is definitely not as bad as many have claimed. The fight sequences might not have been THE best, but they were pretty solid and thrilling. The sequences were also captured very well in terms of angle and editing. Not some blurry fighting actions. Plot was straightforward, but I like it coz it was already action-packed. Making it more complicated would have been bad because they only had 9 episodes to play with. The characters played a huge part in making the story engaging too.
This drama was definitely worth a watch and worth the wait. But it's probably not everyone's cup of tea with it's gore and also the lack of romance. If those two aren't really your concern, I'd say this would be quite a fun watch.
I loved it! I've been waiting for this drama since last year and I'm not disappointed. This is my first time seeing…
You should really watch Kim Nam Gil in The Fiery Priest too! He did lots of action there and his character was freaking cute. Loved his chemistry with Lee Hanee as well.
A lot of things weren’t explained but implied1. Are eon nyeon and Lee Yoon siblings? Or was eon nyeon just emphatic…
I suspected if they were siblings too. But I don't think they are. Remember Yoon said his mother died when she gave birth to his younger sibling. But Nyeon's parents were both still alive until they were executed. So I think Nyeon was just empathizing with Yoon because they faced the same fate. But personally, I find that they give off siblings vibe than romantic vibes. I also prefer it that way, actually.
And yea, the general was Chung-soo. Not sure if Nyeon has figured it out or not though.
Omg, the visuals!!!! I'm an even bigger fan of Da Hee than I am of Soo Hyuk, so this is even more amazing! And gosh, Arin is so pretty too. Excited to see her again after Alchemy of Souls. Finally, Soohyuk being the first main lead!
Omg, didn't know BIBI was gonna be in this. When I watched some of her MVs, I always wondered if she was gonna get scripts sending her way because she was good. I was already super excited for this series, and now knowing that BIBI is gonna be in it too, that makes me look forward to it even more.
Lee Jae-wook was the best thing in that Gil Bok-soon movie. I can see good things in the future for him.
I have yet to watch that movie, but I'm sure he did great. I feel bad for typecasting him, but because he started with a noona-dongsaeng role and did so well, and he's got such a mature demeanor when he acts, I find it weird seeing him pair up with someone close to his age or younger. I always find that his acting shines even more when he's paired up with much older actors.
People are so quick to judge. Lee Jae Wook was only 21yo when he did 'Search WWW' with Lee Da-Hee, who was then 34yo. Yet he did a good job portraying someone in mid-twenties, while Da Hee's role was a 30yo. And people LOVED that couple. And before that, LJW only played one role, which was Mark in 'Memories of Alhambra'. Mark, everyone. That scary violent college kid MARK with punky hair and earrings.
I'm sure if Moon Sang Min does a lot of homework on his role, he'll be able to appear a few years older with the help of the styling team. Big fan of Shin Hyun Bin here, so I know she can easily portray someone in her early to mid 30s. Their age gap in the drama might just be 10 years max. Not that I mind it even if it's 14 years apart in the drama as long as the acting, directing, and the script are good.
