Storyline the weakest link

For starters, I haven't read the webtoon so this is purely based off the drama.

Action scenes were good. Delving into psychological trauma was good. Manifesting suppressed anger was good.

Here's what wasn't good.

There was no true "bond" between the characters. There was no friendship, no bonding, no connection. You can't build a friendship on shared rage alone. There was nothing to look forward to between characters because everything felt forced.

There was no lovable character. No, I don't mean cute, or fluff. I mean truly likeable characters. They tried but character development was non-existent. In fact, there were more hateful characters (aka Dad, and bullies) than anything else.

Essentially, with no attachment to characters, a weak storyline, all that was left for this drama was good casting and slugging action. I compare it to Weak Hero cause it's come out around the same time and it just doesn't have the same... depth. No umami. Convenience store instant noodles compared to restaurant level ramen... so to speak.

Watch it if you want but also, don't expect too much.
