Let me just start by saying that I went into this expecting it to be an action-comedy that takes place in the military, but as soon as the first episode opened.....boy was I in for a rude awakening. The show was gripping from the start and as each episode passed by it became more disturbing, heart-wrenching, and frustrating. I found myself feeling the pain and anger that our main character was feeling as well as the hopelessness that continued to loom over most of the episodes.

The performances were incredible and it was nice to see Jung Hae-in play a role that was different from the usual sweet, reserved, and mellow character that he has been taking on in a lot of his recent works. Even the least important characters were great to watch and it was hard to peel my eyes away from the screen as no one bored me. No matter how much I disliked a character, I found them interesting and wanted to desperately know their motives, goals, and ambitions(which I will say is the only flaw with the show in my own personal opinion. I wish we knew more about our characters but I will cut them some slack since it was only 6 episodes).

Despite how dark and emotional the content of the show was, I absolutely adored how they were able to not only add comedic bits to it but that they were able to cleverly pick the best times to add in a joke rather than tossing it in at any given moment(this is especially important when it is a show that deals with such heavy topics like abuse, sexual harassment, bullying and so on). I loved Koo Kyo-hwan's performance and was delighted when I saw that he was not only able to create a lighter tone when needed but that he was able to act out serious moments and not have them feel awkward. His character felt complex and real and I loved whenever he came on to my screen.

I thought the pacing was perfect for a 6 episode season and not once did it feel rushed. Every scene went smoothly on to the next and because of that, I felt that watching in one sitting was anything but a chore. I am hoping that we get a second season because I've grown so attached to the characters, but I do wonder if there would be anything to add? Other than that, I recommend that anyone who is able to handle such dark subjects should give D.P. a watch because you will not be disappointed at all.
