Most chaotic storyline of the year
There's too many bad people, too many situations that don't make sense (why are there no cameras to document the extortion and attacks?), and the communication being so damn bad for no reason.
I wanted to like this so much, but I don't think the scriptwriters know how to land the drama and plot points they wanted. Not only did this start as a "saving the grieving guy from loan sharks" but it dipped into doping, underground boxing rings, gambling, and even corrupt police/murder cover-ups. There's just too much going on and it took away from the viewer's experience. There needs to be a more clear story, with a clear enemy, and then you can map out a complex storyline around it.
As for the good, I loved the chemistry from both the pairings. Guide and Dech were really good to see together even though I had not expected them as a pairing here.
