A Highly recommended drama
I'm a big fan of thriller dramas, and this drama, "A shop for killers" is amazing. I am certain that this drama will blow you're mind. 8 episodes and is easy to watch from a nightstand. None of the episodes are boring and the ending is perfect. Waiting for season 2 btw. If you love thriller/action genre, this is the best drama for you.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
Absolutely, one of the best drama of year 2024!
"Listen carefully, Jeong Jian" - Jeong JinmanWhat a ride! From start to finished, everything is full of suspense, edgy, brutality, beautifully done bloody scenes , well executed fight scenes, delivery of lines and spectacular acting.
Jian is kind of frustrating when she became an adult, compared to her younger self who's more sure of what she wanted to do with her life. I love their uncle/niece chemistry as it was not full of warmth/touchy moments or scenes, but you know that Uncle loves her in his own special way.
Fight scenes were perfectly executed, and you know they gave their 200% efforts in doing it. As what you can see with the end products, as well as if you saw the BTS videos, that they both injured their selves as they're doing their own stunts.
The story is written beautifully, and the scenes were all properly done and well-acted. I wanted season 2 and I am hoping for it as there's a lot of unfinished issues and I wanted more of Jeong Jinman and Jeong Jian scenes, as well as Unnie Minhye, brother and Master Pasin.
Overall, it is worth of time and effort watching it. Uncle Jinman is full of hotness, specially when he was still the captain of the mercenary group.

A masterpiece
I have no words to explain how much I loved this drama. It is my all time favourite and an absolute work of art. The soundtrack was perfect and I still listen to some songs sometimes. I cared so much for the characters and I love how complicated and morally grey they could be and I would still love them. This drama made my heart feel full, it made me sob, it made me smile and laugh and everything in between and I so wish it was possible to forget it all and watch it again because it was an absolutely brilliant masterpiece and I cannot recommend it enough!Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
A Thrilling Departure with an Open-Ended Finale
A Shop for Killers stands out from the usual dramas I watch, offering a thrilling storyline that captivates with its blend of past and present narratives. How the show intertwines characters' histories with their current actions adds depth and intrigue, keeping me engaged. The season finale, however, left me hanging. It didn't have the conclusive feel I expected from the last episode. I eagerly anticipate what's next, waiting for the next season to continue the story.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?

Great story with great casting and lots of twists...
I really love this drama. From the beginning, the thrill is already felt. You won't have any hard time in understanding the plot because every episode has a flashback of how that part of their life started. The casting is also magnificent. As soon as I saw that Lee Dong Wook will be a main in here, I already decided to watch everything. Kim Hye Joon also made a great portrayal of her role as Jeong Jian. The young Jian also acted very well here. Also, the plot twist in the end where Jinman arrives is a really good ingredient for this one... Chef's kiss for this series..Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
A shop for killers
First of all I really love Lee Dong Wook and his acting so there was no way to not watch it. Story is really interesting and acting is perfect. Chemistry between actors is really good. I don't feel like there was a need for more episodes although I hope that there would be second season,there are some unanswered questions, but even if there's ending was well made.In my opinion one of the best kdrama's from 2024.

Highly recommended drama for action and thriller lovers.
Truly a MUST WATCH series!!!I recommend it whole heartedly, it is THAT GOOD! The plot, the acting, the characters, relationships, the story execution, everything was so phenomenal! I swear a lot of people must be missing out on this great series as I see just a rating of 8.1. Guys just go for it you will fall in love with it in the process, and this series really deserves all the love.
And, how can I forget Lee Dong-wook! He is superb in his role. His and the niece's bond is also too lovely.
I must mention this, that I really appreciated the fact that they included a whole episode to show the back-story of Jinman, at that point you will realize that he is definitely the main character, even though the niece has more screen space than him.
Overall, awesome series! This is my first time leaving a review, that's because I really want this series to get the much deserve attention.
Hope they bring in a season 2, I need it desperately lol.

"“Whatever makes you scared, keep your eyes open and face it.”
There are so many Quotes which i love a lot in this drama. SPOILER ALERT!!!! I love the cinematography as well as stunts etc. I love LDW in this series, he is so LIT , it makes you wonder what he is eating to maintain his body during his 40's. I love LDW as uncle and he has so much scope in this series. Even his niece also acted very well with him. The small girl as his niece should definitely win the award for her acting in 1st few episodes. It so hard to pull for young child artists like her. I love her uncle(Jeong Jinman) who setup the mall and his house designs are on top level, he knows that Bale will attack him and his niece. In this series, they promote the "Girl's power" i love his niece and min-hye too , min-hye and her action sequences are LIT in this series and i also watched the BTS of it too. Bale is totally psychopath and why did Jeong Jinman forgave him? and if he had stopped him at that time itself nobody will have died now, he saved him from it, instead he goes and kills all his family members except Jeong Jinman. The question is that "WHEN WILL BE SEASON 2 BE AIRED? I want to see Jeong Jinman and niece killing bale in it. I am so excited to see our trio who helped jian when her uncle is not present with them. I was wondering did her uncle went to on hide due to his injuries which her niece's fake friend did it or he did because to test her niece is capable of protecting his shopping mall.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
A princesinha da Disney tá diferente
Esse drama bem que surpreendeu até por ter sido produzido pela Disney!Pode ser até dizer que a princesinha da Disney tá diferente!
Eu acho que foi maravilhoso, realmente um drama de ação com tudo que tem se de direito Muito tiro pancada e bomba. Lee Dong apesar de poucas participação no próprio drama, foi maravilhoso velo na telinha fora da categoria comédia romântica, foi muito interessante viu no papel diferente de um parente responsável e de um vilão bonzinho.
O que me fez da nota 8 para esse drama foi que ficou muita ação, pancada e bomba que por muitas das vezes faltou de algo e a forma como a história foi passada indo do presente para o passado muitas vezes nos oito episódios meio que deu até labirintite.
Se tiver uma segunda temporada irei assistir com prazer porém poderia ter menos transições de passado e futuro, por que fica de um jeito se você piscar o olho você não sabe como foi parar ali.
Espero que se tiver uma segunda temporada não seja só dando voltas, como que aconteceu nessa primeira contando como o tio recebeu a loja como tudo aconteceu eu acho que poderia ter sido melhor mas a atração a todos estava realmente Impecável foi maravilhoso é uma proposta de trabalho bem diferente então ela faltou efeitos especiais de primeira linha e tudo bem organizado em relação ao cenário Luke música tudo ficou muito bom o que me trouxe a vontade de assistir mais dramas produzidas pelo ativo acho que é bom a Netflix começar a se atualizar e a surpreender mais porque se a Disney continua com essa pegada breve vou fazer uma assinatura nela.
Enfim assisto tirem suas próprias conclusões e matem saudades dos seus atores preferidos.

Below mediocre
Weak drama. The violence is abundant, probably unlike any other K-drama you've watched before, but fails to deliver any satisfaction, of any kind. Eventually the show becomes severely boring with some unexpected twists meant to keep it alive. The current rating is probably artificial and doesn't match reality, in my opinion.Feel free to watch and drop this at any moment.

Good packaging and additional features make up for the defective item.
Just watch for the fight scenes and the glamorous presentation otherwise ignore thisThere are many flaws in it, like being a professional person he did not teach his niece the complete package. If someone of my own was in such a profession, I would have become an expert. I do not wait for the situation to dig a well when I feel thirsty. When you know that you might feel thirsty, why shouldn't I dig a well beforehand, just like he knew that his niece is the target. From the beginning itself I knew that Park Ji Bin/Bae Jung Min is the villain because I have seen exactly the same story many times in other drama movies, only the profession and motive of the story was different. Things were predictable for me. If the main villain's entry had happened in the 1st episode, then anyone could have predicted it. Those who have been watching dramas for so many years have learned to observe something. The writer here he played smartly, he did not reveal all his cards at once, otherwise it would have been easy to judge the situation. And that is why the story is engaging, story telling is good. The female lead did not use the glasses given by Lee Tae Young or I missed something.And who would force his niece to become the owner of such an organization? Firstly, her life is in danger because she is your family and on top of that, you are making her the owner of arms smuggling. Which is of no benefit to her. Now, you say that if you want to leave, you can go through the back door. Don't you think this option should be given before signing the document? And I am shocked by the stupidity of the male lead's supporter. Making the girl the owner and standing her against the enemies to save her can never be a proper option. If you have been given the responsibility of her protection , then you should run away with her and hide. When you feel that she is capable of protecting herself, bring her back. Good technology devices, gorgeous actors with good stylish clothes, locations and some underworld terms have presented it well otherwise there is nothing in this story, it is illogical. And in the end it was too much, all the actors are doing stupid things in the last episode especially the female lead who is roaming here and there lol. I liked the presentation of gun fight, fight scenes and the writer made such an illogical drama engaging. My rating is not for the whole overall package but for some selected things which I have already mentioned.
