Moonstruck

I see people are still camped here. I love the dedication.haha

Glad to see FeiYu is back. He really can rock whatever hairstyle!

what I meant is that I was 100% sure he was alive but was confused when the show is about to end and he still hasn't showed up. I was expecting we get to see his 'plan' and where he'd been.

he did, but only on the very last second.

lol I don't think he has the skill to deliver this role. The only one I can think of acting wise is Lee JoongGi but he's a lot older now, so not possible anymore

I think from the episode where they showed Jeongmin's backstory I was already 100% sure JinMan is alive, he's very much aware Jeongmin was spying and that voicemail was fake.
The only thing that confused me is that within the last 10mins of ep8 he still hasn't showed up and I wondered how they would cram all the details about his fake death. Turns out that is all behind the scenes *sigh*. We really need s2.

if this was in Netflix for sure it would be an international hit..
I still keep thinking about it.
Also even though JinMan has a lot more humanity than Bale, he's also not a good person. And I love that they left his character like that.
He could have sent young Jian and Brother far away but instead he kept them with him knowing all risks.
Plus even MinHye who seemed to be living a new normal life was dragged into the killing world by him and Pasin.

and what was the point of being code green if only MinHye came to protect?
how does JinMan even plan to enforce that 'protect code green with your lives' when the moment he died, the other codes who were meant to protect attacked like vultures.

definitely one of the best this year!
but does anyone have info about season2?? surely, you cannot leave it like that.
too many unanswered questions

I'm on ep6. Liking the intensity of the backstory, but the foreign 'actors' during the court hearing is ruining it lol They should have taken better extras or atleast just let them speak in their local language.

ohh right! thank you! this is what I've been looking for..I totally forgot about that scene. No wonder SongChon said there is somwthing inside the book

gotta be honest. I didn't really like Hidden Love 😅 so I might just skip this one. Will just wait til WuLei does another costume drama

thanks for the feedback. But I think there is something more to it, like there's an evidence there that will point to Tang. Even RohBin was apologetic to Tang that he kept that book and said it's not because he don't trust him(Tang). I just can't recall which episode this book first appeared.

I need an honest opinion, is this really good?
I like WuLei but honestly the synopsis kinda sounds uninteresting. Is there substance to the story or is this another slow paced cheesy romance?

and btw, can somebody remind me of what's up with that 'Crime and Punishment' book? why is it relevant for Lee Tang?

It's not for everyone but this is a really good series, I think it deserves a higher rating.

SongChon stole the show for me. He's such an interesting character, he reminds me of Mike from Breaking Bad. He has a good characterisation that they probably could have expanded more if the series was longer. So from what I gather he faked his death after attacking NanGam's dad and that's when RohBin found him. I know he got disillusioned after what he found out after NanGam's dad and RohBin's ideals on justice rubbed onto him, but would have been nice if we saw the transition of him being a decent rookie cop to someone who incites extra violence on his victims.

LeeTang felt a bit more like a secondary character, he's like a depressed puppet to 'dumb luck'. I swear halfway thru I thought that his senses is telling him that he himself deserves to die (mirror scenes) and I thought the series will explore that, but guess not.

NanGam is annoying. He's too noisy, never listening and always threatening. His character didn't do anything spectacular as a detective either.

RohBin I really like. He should have been top-billed in this series. The unlikely hero/anti-hero defending how you view it.

All in all, I enjoy the moral dilemma in this series. No matter how noble you think your cause are, you can never play God (like in the case of SongChon and Rohbin). Only Lee Tang's senses are 'God-like' as he is truly able to seed out people who deserves punishment. But then, that is the supernatural aspect of this drama and nothing like that exists in real life. In real life, vigilantes will delude themselves that they have Lee Tang's ability, but they don't, they'll just be like chemo, targeting cancer cells but also killing healthy cells in the process.

And PS. the filming style is really unique and very good.

he went back to killing using his senses. now we don't know if the detective will go after him or not

You're putting more context into my comment than the meaning I intented. I'm Asian so I know more about this side of WW2. Surely you won't find me commenting the same thing about Captain America film and the German villains. But that was my feedback on this series, I didn't expect it to be super-hero like, I thought it's gonna be more thought provoking and deep series.
If I had known this series will go into the direction it went, I wouldn't have expected complex characterization.

I know more about this topic beyond what they teach in school. I did recognize how atrocious Japanese regime back then, didn't I? If this was a documentary or a non-supernatural film, I probably wouldn't have made the comment. I am in no way defending Japan or wishing they were portrayed differently in general. My comment was from unmet expectation when this series went into a super-herolike film state. It felt a little too black and white for me and cartoonish. The hero complex felt off to me, there wasn't enough episodes to build a good flow of characters development imo.
