Vigilante (2023)

Ótima produção

Quero saber porque as pessoas não estão falando o suficiente de Vigilante?
A série é um murro na cara de tão boa, o enredo é envolvente apesar de conter cenas fortes em algumas partes e a Coreia é boa naquilo que ela fornece, não vivo lá, não sei sobre as notícias mas certeza absoluta que tem muita da corrupção e eles conseguem fazer dramas sobre o assunto muito bem!
Quero falar da dinâmica dos atores em cena, tanto o jiyong, o cara que eu chamei de maluco que ajudou muito o jiyong e se não fosse por ele, acho que muita coisa teria dado errado, o jo heon e a miryeo, esses 4 foram fantásticos.
O meu favorito foram as cenas do jiyong e o do jo heon, a química dele, os olhares, foi incrível essa dinâmica, a confiança que o jo heon tinha no jiyong de fazer a coisa certa e do jiyong de saber que ele ia entender.
E preciso falar sobre ele ser o Hulk da série, o ji tae mudou muito desde que fez money heist Korea, tá um monstro, as cenas deles lutando foram o máximo, Hulk, capitão América e todos os heróis da Marvel junto, tava com uma cara de bandido terrível mas amei, atuação incrível também
Mas falando do meu amor Joo Hyuk, tô orgulhosa demais dele, o talento dele, entregou demais nesse personagem deu pra ver, espero que ele esteja feliz com o ótimo trabalho que fez.
Fiquei triste com a morte do amigo dele, sabia que isso iria acontecer mas ele morreu acreditando que o amigo estava fazendo algo que valia a pena mas é aquele coisa, você pode limpar o mal por baixo mas vai ter sempre alguém de cima...
Enfim, foi um drama ótimo, esse final deu brecha pra mais uma temporada que eu amaria.

THAT WAS SATISFYING!!

Vigilante was such a thrilling ride!! I enjoyed every bit of it. It's always good to watch dramas that fight against the corrupted system & this provided such a satisfaction. The plot was so good and the action scenes were so satisfying to watch!!

Loved how it started off with Jiyong alone but slowly we built up a gang with our fan, the reporter and finally even the cop joined us and they all protected him because they knew that someone had to fight against the system atleast that way

Nam Joo Hyuk nailed his role as Jiyong & all the actors did a great job!! The ending showed that one man can't changed the system that easily & the corruption won't stop but Jiyong and the gang will also not stop fighting against it so we NEED another season with all 4 of them working together and fighting corruption

Prometeu e entregou muito mais!

Drama excelente, história cheia de detalhes e bem escrita. Elenco impecável. Trilha sonora foi perfeita e deixava cada cena mais completa.
O drama mesmo tendo muita ação, entregou um roteiro muito bem distribuido, deixando muito simples a conexão com os personagens e fazendo o expectador se colocar no lugar de cada um deles.
Drama prometeu e entregou muito além.
Aguardo ansiosa segunda temporada.
Nam Joo Hyuk nunca esteve tão bem, Yoo Jae Tae também como sempre incrível.
Drama não tem como ser avaliado com uma nota menor do que 10, se pudesse daria 11.

impressive, worth the watch!

The acting was really top notch, like Yoo Ji Tae actually builded up for this role, i'm really impressed , like wow , what a transformation!!
All the protagonists did a really good job, i really appreciated Nam joo hyuk 's acting here, he did improved throughout the years.
Since he is enlisting soon or maybe he has already enlisted, we may not had a second season that soon.
I enjoyed the watch, it wasn't boring.
I was rooting for the "vigilante" lol. I get where he came from, and yes at the end of the day it actually seems like the bad guys win.
9/10 because it was an easy watch, and yes i want to boost the ratings on this one lol!

Primeiramente quero dizer que o Nam Joo Hyuk está incrível no papel de Vigilante. As expressões faciais de total apatia e desinteresse pela vida ao ódio e a vontade de matar estavam muito bem colocadas no que cada cena pedia. O rapaz que tenho acompanhado desde School 2015 cresceu e está alçando novos voos.

O drama é mais uma adaptação de uma webtoon e cujo tema é vingança. Kim Ji Yong teve a mãe assinada quando era bem jovem e viu o algoz de sua mãe receber uma pena leve e voltar para as ruas para cometer os mesmos crimes. Quando adulto ele entra na Academia de Policia e no tempo livre coloca o seu capuz preto e sai para fazer justiça com os punhos para casos onde a Justiça foi leniente em suas penas.

Em geral, é um drama de ação interessante de acompanhar, mas uma coisa que achei bem exagerada foi o copycat, Cho Kang Ok. Qual é a dele afinal? Por que essa obsessão pelo Vigilante? São algumas perguntas que talvez sejam respondidas se houver uma segunda temporada. Da forma como as coisas terminam tudo indica que sim, mas vamos ver se a Disney vai se dispor a investir para a produção de uma segunda temporada. Além disso o Nam Joo Hyuk está cumprindo o serviço no exército, se rolar mesmo deve ser em 2025.

You won't be dissapointed

The plot is thick here, the main characters are generally fleshed out well, each with their backstory and own motivations, The acting is generally very top notch and even though I feel there was a missed opportunity by not having the vigilantes and the police officer interact with each other more at the same time, it generally delivered.

BUT I feel like it gets a bit rushed, feels like some important parts missed the cut and I think it was remiss of them to not include more episodes, however the director and the producer's still did very well with the episode range given, just feel like 2 more episodes would have allowed them to come as close to perfection as they could.

Also, I have to mention seeing bad guys not getting off lightly realled endeared to me.

The differences between Disney/Hulu K-Dramas is interesting

Barring my disappointment that Seonwook was hardly in the show and died anyway (?) this show was okay for a thriller/action drama. It’s still a bit jarring seeing k dramas with this much knife play, blood, and violence in general. The dramas produced for Hulu & Netflix always feel different.

The writing, particularly the scenes about philosophy and morality, were quite heavy handed. There’s a scene where Jiyong and Seonwook play basketball and Jiyong is wearing a black shirt and Seonwook is wearing a white one. We get it; Seonwook believed in reform and second chances and Jiyong thought using crime to fight crime was the answer. I really wish they’d done more to push Seonwook as a character because it just made his death feel unearned (?) because he wasn’t that much of a presence. He was just cute and believed the system could work. Why did he have to die?

Reporter Choi’s character was confusing to me. At the start of the drama, it felt way too over the top. The “okay” thing was odd. I appreciate that she was a tenacious reporter and despite people dying because of some strange choices she made, a lot of things wouldn’t have happened without her.

Honestly, the story beats already reminded me of Daredevil or your average vigilante hero story. The way characters were just tossing grown men through the air, it felt like there was some super soldier serum going around.

Anyway, it’s not my favorite vigilante story, but I thought the lead actor was good and it kept my attention.

RESEÑA <3

No tengo palabras para explicar lo bueno que es este drama. Desde el primer segundo del capítulo uno, hasta el último segundo del capítulo final, te mantiene con intriga. No quería ni pestañear por si me perdía algo importante.

Digamos que es un drama algo diferente.

Los actores son demasiado buenos y el personaje principal es Nam Joo-Hyuk, el actor de veinticinco veintiuno.

Hay escenas de acción y en ningún momento te esperas lo que puede ocurrir a continuación.

De verdad, no me cansaré de decir que este drama es fantástico.

GOODDDD

I started the series with a lot of excitement since there were two elements that I LOVE: Nam Joohyuk ofc lol and the fact that it's an action/crime series.
To be honest the first part was so good but I don't know about the second part... I got a little lost, maybe it was my fault but I think I would have preferred a different dynamic between the characters.
It was DEFINITELY too short but apparently there will be a sequel AND THIS IS GOOD, I CAN'T WAIT.
Nam Joohyuk's acting gave me goosebumps and it's not the first time, I hope to see him again soon (we miss you <3)
Overall I really recommend it!

Good Enough

Korean Drama '' Vigilante '' is a webtoon-based action drama.

The theme of the drama is quite interesting, and there are a lot of crime cases that are dark and intense. The antihero twist was also nicely handled, and the performances of the main leads were strong enough to support the plot.

However, the drama suffered from its short length. Halfway through, things started getting rushed and the story didn't develop as smoothly as it should. At least the action scenes were enjoyable.

So, overall, six out of ten for the Korean Drama '' Vigilante ''.

Could have been far better!

The story of a dark hero leading a dual life fighting for justice has always been a popular one. Most of us have grown up watching the likes of Batman. Now we are presented with a Korean webtoon adaptation of the dark hero character called Vigilante who fights crime in the shadows and doesn't mind to kill.
But the story doesn't seem much appeasing as the events could be predicted pretty easily from the early parts of the story. The life of the connected characters' and how they ended up where they were at that point in time should've been better flushed out. Instead all we get is just simple brooding MC and his vigilantism activities. But the funny thing is that the MC doesn't even bother covering his face in a well CCTV connected country like South Korea and he gets away with it every time.
Hope the next season, if it happens, have a decent storyline and better flushed out characters.
Here hoping and even with all its faults I have to admit this really was a good one time watch.
