Started off to an amazing start and as it kept going... it crashed hard and never recovered. It hooked me instantly with the premise of a national vote for criminals who skate by on their charges due to legal loopholes or money. It slowly turns into plot hole after plot hole and a jumbled mess of questions and story webs that never got connected. The writers tried to keep you guessing as to who Gaetal was until the very end, but the mystery is pretty obvious as it goes on. The twists-and-turns are not even good and just give you whiplash with how unnecessary some of it was.
The good thing about this drama is the actors. It is stacked with big names and they deliver on their parts. Everyone from the leads down to the side characters do a fantastic job with their acting and it really helps keep you watching because the story does not. I liked the dynamics between all the characters and the way they interacted, but even within those relationships were messy, unfinished storylines. The decisions of Seok-Joo were so questionable and I just want to leave it to the bad writing. His character and story could've been so good, but they really butchered it for him.
I was hoping the ending would leave me feeling a little better with the overall story, but that made my rating fall below an 8 which I was going to give. While in other crime dramas within the final episode we are completing and wrapping up storylines for a smooth or open ending, this one just created more questions than answers. It seems open ended leaving you with: "There will always be another Gaetal." + "Another Gaetal will appear." I'm not sure I'll be tuning in if there is another season.
