Who are you to assume I watch romantic comedies. You are advised to write your own opinion on your own line instead of defaming me and my valid opinion. Pls behave.

Lots of action. Zero character depth. Police is corrupt, prosecution is corrupt. These are tired old k-drama tropes. Revenge and powerplay portrayed as justified motives for killing people left and right. Mercy for None is stripped of everything that would make watching worthwhile. Although So Ji Sub is great in this. Do NOT answer this comment.

Fantastic actor. He has a lead role in Let Wind Goes By. I loved that drama.

The really good ones are watched by a very small niche audience. But they are really the best, imo. https://kisskh.at/list/Lp6QvXR4

pls use the spoiler function

yes but method of the last killing was not revealed. So there could have been an associate

Indeed the drama plays tricks on us, but I found that very enjoyable and unique. Unreliable storytelling mostly only happens in c-noir dramas.

I'd also recommend Crime Puzzle. And Day of Kidnapping.

I agree about all points. They could have shown flashbacks to the murder scenes in the last episode. And also about Lee Joo Young, it would have been nice if she had had a more decisive role. Cast was awesome.

Ena was present at all the murder scenes. The last scene leaves us to still wonder whether she had anything to do with the murders. They had us guessing about that the whole time. She definitely could have been an associate of the psychiatrist since they were close friends. And the psychiatrist seemed to have a strong hold on Ena mentally and was almost like a sister or mother to Ena. Ena went into the car with the psychiatrist without calling the cops first. And they didn't show how many of the murders took place; in the last one Ena was the only one around. I guess I interpret this as a semi-open ending.

In any case, a brilliant psychological thriller which I throughly enjoyed. Except that revenge as a motive and a psycho as a killer were let downs to me. Neither motive ever makes real sense. 9/10 for me - was 9.5 before the last 2 episodes.

I don't think the last scene hints at a second season but something else

The Embers; Chinese dark crime dramas are amazing but not well known https://kisskh.at/list/Lp6QvXR4

good thing this ends next week because I've come too far to drop. Watching mainly for Kang Ha Neul now.

same, I didn't like it, ep 7 was a drag to watch

The first 4 episodes are introductory and we're just meant to throw ourselves in the experience. And not care about not being able to understand. It comes across like witnessing a hallucination, a fever dream. The cinematography is awesome. The realities of the story start becoming clear in ep 5. In the end it's all clear. It's a sad but beautiful story. As others already said, experimental and arthouse would be the best words to describe this.

Heo Sung Tae is such a screen stealer in this, so funny. The first episode was film-lenght (1:30) and entertaining. I hope they can keep it up for 16 eps. Anyways, seated and waiting for Oh Jung Se's and Go Jun's appearance.

He's always been very slim (in e.g., Cruel City, although he was a mafia boss in that one and one would have expected a mafia boss to be more bulky)

I guess this is based on real life cases like D.P (same screenwriter) and I'm strongly in favor of the realistic background. This is better than I expected (I thought it would be all fluff but it isn't). I particularly like how their YouTuber income is built on blackmail, since current examples of that are too many (consider the Tzuyang case for instance). We can expect significant character growth. Also: Seol In Ah and Cha Hak Yeon are so good in this.

I love how detailed this is about the archeology stuff, a big amount of background research was done. This is truly interesting and enjoyable.
