I hope you're right! And that it's released on TVING on the 21st as planned.
They removed the trailers, not the drama, which has not premiered yet. The writer said the release will go ahead as scheduled on TVING. Viki is the OTT in other territories.
Many articles are being written in Korean media based on the trailers being removed and the author/screenwriter's comments about it. Ironically this could end up being better "promo" for the drama with a wider reach than what it would've had if the homophobes hadn't pulled this crap.
It seems all three main actors have accepted their offers and filming will start soon, to premiere on Netflix! This will be Nam Joo-hyuk's first project after completing his military service last month. 🥳
Oooh it's the 2521 director, no wonder I already love the direction of the drama. Some beautiful nostalgic flares in the first episode perfectly capturing what childhood feels like looking back.
Who cares that a serial killer is on the loose? Well, a cop would. Who cares if they are punished by the law or by someone taking the law into their own hands? Well, most people aren't in favor of murder, even the murder of criminals. And the victims also often feel that it's an "easy way out" for the criminals, as one of the victims literally expresses in the drama.
It's perfectly fine to root for Bitna/Justitia, but it is very silly to somehow pretend that the cop should just accept a rogue judge going on a mass murder spree because they're criminals.
Actually, the general consensus is that the second season was better. It is both higher rated on MDL and got better…
I agree the action scenes were better in S1, but overall I preferred S2. Loved Shin Jae-ha as a villain in S2, while I found Esom's prosecutor a bit grating in S1. Either way both seasons were so great for me that I can't wait for more.
