Revenge

Vigilantes! A team of victims who search to make justice.
Scary cases that make your skin crawl. I watched only to see the revenge.
Be prepared to see everything and more: beatings, bullying, violence against vulnerable people, exploitation, prostitution, the distribution of pornographic films, illegal organ harvesting, injustice, corruption... They didn't leave anything out.
Creepy, you're heart-heavy in the end. The only glimmer of light, this guy.
From 8th episodes I wanted a mythics revenge for this psyco and there wasn't.
In 9th, Swat and prosecutor are "chicken".
In 14th, I would have something to say! He want to fight towards a team of killers all alone? What a shitty idea!
He take the driver who get an accident where his friend were seriously injured and stay to watch him and let the villain escape and then chase him in a taxi? In the "prison" he beats everyone, there is no one left when he goes out into the square, then all at once they all arrive together nice perky and surround him? He follows the villain to the pier with the prosecutor on his heels but strangely he has time to drift with the car, beat, chase the bad one and only then help arrives. Timing that doesn't add up.

Trust him or not?

I must confess that I droop this series after 3rd episode but trusting in the high rating I decided to continue watching it.
The plot is aberrant and shocking but also sad and emotional, especially last 2 episodes.
This guy who is the son of a serial killer and married to a police detective, was wanted and followed as a murderer.
She discovers clues about her husband. Who is actually the father of her daughter? She has tough time and must choose a side between law and family.
So many surprises.
The OST was good with also orchestral piece.
I don't think I'll ever see it twice.

Kang Bok Soo the hero

Love triangle, bullism at school, misunderstanding...
3 school mates meet after 9 years. One has becoming a president of school, one a teacher and the other poor guy still a student.
The last one is a gentle and awesome person that was misunderstood, in the past and still yet, and unfortunately he was unable to graduate. He has a second chance to come back at school when he is an adult, 9 years after. The teacher is right his "ex girlfriend".
He will be able to win her back and together they will fight against injustice.
This series seemed too long to me, it was so heavy to reach the end that I put it aside several times.

Good beginning but then...

I wonder if there had been another female protagonist if the series would have been different and better.
I don't particularly like the actress Park Shin Hye because in every series I've seen (for example The Heirs or Memories of Alhambra), in which she stars, she weighs down the story. Monothematic in her sadness, with this idiotic look with his mouth ajar, in the long run she makes me nervous.
On the other hand, I liked Park Hyung Sik. Always elegant and gentleman, I especially like to remember the scene in which he looks in the mirror.
While the scenes in which they pretend to be drunk I found them not very credible.
But I was a super fan of the couple of their friends. So cute.

Only in Korea, the 1st January all the 19th become adult of 20th!

4 girls and 4 guys begin this special school to become responsabilies adults, then 2 days after 2 others would join them. It's end december, they are all 19 years old and just in few days they enter in a majory year. Yes, because the strange thing is that ONLY in Korea, the 1st January all the 19th become adult of 20th!
The first school rule is, until 20th, no relationship! They have interesting lessons, 2 clubs (astronomy & ping-pong), activities, couple sport...
Everyone are very very cute and handsome.
I have cold myself only seeing these poors to freeze.
Things will change in "the 20th House". It's seems they have more pressure and responsibilities as adults. They drunk a lot, but the ritual it's how a penalty almost a joy but drinking give them a brave to say and ask what they want.
I find girls more direct than boys. They are all struggling to say "no", but when they do, it is with respect and sensitivity.
The pride of showing their ID card is so tender.
I liked the 4 watchers with their analysis and comments.
Everyone of the cast was great. Theirs personalities, some more shy who more extroverted, who direct and who more reflective but still all who have given their best. Congratulations to these guys.
The couple between the exuberant Lee-Ji and the shy Peong-Seok I found it of an infinite sweetness and harmony. Always smiling and ready to help in the kitchen or to listen and reassure homemates. Truly splendid.
