I understand that it's a metaphorical, but like... I read it like "Oh another introverted kid would rather use gun, than anything else" it's just the fact that creators chose gun as the metaphor, when could've chose anything else as well. But I guess it does showcase well how obssesed Hira is.

Gun imagery makes me uncomfortable, also shooting scenes even if in fantasizing? Like, why shooting? why guns?

I cried during the last episode, it was so beautiful, the whole five episodes it was sooo! ah it's an experience I'm glad I got in 2021!

This drama incapsulates the youth! it felt so relatable, so many characters that are compelling, the character dialogues seemed realistic as well!

good pacing, we are moving pretty fast

maybe they will add tokusatsu elements later? who knows~

For me, it feels like K is a child version of Soo Yeol. I can imagine when SY was little he wanted to be a hero, powerful and cool, plus it's showcased that he likes robots (so maybe liking superhero shows like tokusatsu?). K acts over the top like a child (might be linked to the concept of inner child/ "be kind to your inner child"). I think SY never had the opportunity to be a carefree child, even in his birthday memory, we are shown that he was shy and didn't even ask for the expensive present not to be trouble for the adoptive mother.

they don't have filler, they only have 12 episodes so no time to waste

happens all the time after first 2 episodes, esp w/ detective series

Tbh abusive detective troupe is pretty common in detective dramas; I'm glad she is written like one, it's so much fun, far more than tame and kind female detectives

Thank god that it has only 12 episodes, they don't have time for filler! pacing is so good thus far

totally!!

I mean the script is rather anime-like

anyways, the drama that I was referring to is Children of Nobody (somehow I misremembered the title) *just to clarify for people that aren't familiar with that drama*

Oh I totally forgot about N in Tunnel! It was such a great drama thou

exactly haha

also does it mean that bromance will be between Dong Wook's and N's characters? I mean it would be interesting to see their dynamic (I hope that N's character doesn't stay bedridden for whole 12 episodes)

It's pretty fun, I'm glad this drama doesn't take itself too seriously. I hope that other episodes will keep up the vibe as well.

When corrupt policeman's subconscious knows that he is doing a wrong thing and takes over to be a superhero.

I got major Children from Nowhere flashbacks when I saw N's character. The soft-hearted guy who cares for children and then gets abused. So basically N will get such roles huh.
