Manhole 2017

Just finished the Manhole show, and I've got to say, it's quite the ride. Initially, it had me hooked, especially when the protagonist was living as a gangster or back in high school. Those parts were thrilling and entertaining. However, as the show progressed, it started feeling a bit too long.Around episode 11, it shifted focus to Su Jin, which I found less engaging. The time-travel concept, which was intriguing at first, started to feel poorly executed with noticeable plot holes. It seemed like the writer struggled to maintain coherence, evident in the absence of time travel in some episodes.Additionally, the later episodes felt dumbed down, especially in character development. The portrayal of the love rival as blatantly bad seemed forced and simplistic. Overall, while the show had a strong start, it faltered in its continuation, leaving much to be desired in terms of storytelling and character depth.
