So much betrayal
Ok, so I would like to start by saying that I liked this drama, but not for the normal reasons. Morally grey character? yes. But quality of the story? That was questionable.
The entire cat and mouse game kept going in circles. "I am Luo Xiang. I am not Luo Xiang. I am Luo Xiang." Furthermore, the story was not fleshed out at certain points. It felt rushed. The part where Su Qing died was a really good example of such. She was shot and it suddenly ended. I want to know more about his little kid (i forgot her name) because she was def one of my favorite characters.
Also, why does everyone suddenly trust everyone? Like you were already betrayed so many times??? And you still decide to trust them? Officer Yu was obviously evil, and then suddenly turns good, then bad again. It was just really confusing to follow who was the "good guys." Everything seemed to fall into place too easy. The villian being outsmarted, then the hero being outsmarted. Like the transmitter just existing there at the end of the story from the previous visit, that was a little bit to easy for the hero.
The acting was also shaky at some points. I was not fully convinced of Luo Xiang actually liking Su Qing. I get that there was no romance tag, but they supposedly were engaged.
What I did like was the action and scheming. Sometimes it did catch me off gaurd, but I was so confused on the villian's relationship to one another. Even now, as I am writing this, I remain a little confused. (That is probably why I would not watch it again)
The ending was bitter sweet. I was disappointed that Su Qing died, but it made sense for the plot. With the problematic behavior of drugs, Officer Liao would end up alone trying to fight for what he believed was right.
Overall: Corruption, a lot of action, and semi-satisfying demise of all the villians and a few heros :(
