Started really really great, but the makers completely lost the plot halfway through

Started really really great, but the makers completely lost the plot halfway through. Neither was the revenge fulfilling nor was the climax any good. The extremely fucking powerful villain gets defeated so easily in the last 20 mins suddenly, just so unfulfilling and unsatisfying overall.

Not to mention the writing wasn't good too, wdym the protagonist goes through insane fucking life-altering trauma, his girlfriend leaves, his BROTHER, HIS ONLY FAMILY gets murdered, he gets routinely abused, beaten and even raped, and yet after 5 years we see there is no change in his mental or emotional state?? extremely disappointing

This drama was really good till ep 4, if only they had focused on the revenge part and not a million other plotlines, the writing would have been tighter and so the drama would have been so much better.
