wow okay, this movie was really better than i thought. keeps you at the edge of your seat the whole time, and it plays with your emotions as well. there really isn't a "villain / antagonist" in this movie, the "bomber" (ji changwook) was a victim as well, the main lead (jo woojin) isn't a good guy 100% as well, something like an antihero..(?) at the end, i don't even know who and why i was crying for.
the police? stupid as usual, no doubt. the only smart one was the head of EOD, who figured out stuff more quickly.
what was disappointing? the bomber was going to kill himself together with the male lead, but honestly i would've either wished for both of them to die together. or for both of them to live, them living would give the male lead a chance to redeem himself and know his wrongdoings and JCW to witness it. ik he tried to wake him up under the water but was hoping that he would carry him out together with him to try to survive. but unfortunately he still died and ML lived, though the good part is that he still redeemed himself after he survived.
it wasn't a full thought on detailed plot, there's still plotholes here and there, but it delivered. simple, clean and the actors all gave it their all into their performances. even with JCW's voice alone, he still killed it. very exciting yet emotional movie 9.5/10
