Bitter truth in a searing drama

The impact of the reality depicted in D.P was so much that the Ministry of Defense had to make a statement that the drama exaggerates the haunting living reality of military enlistment in South Korea. Watching D.P is not an easy task, it triggers and taps into an inner emotion of rage, guilt, and even shame in some ways.

As the youth in South Korea live these horrific truths shown in the series, it is a reminder of what human nature is and how punitive justice and often retributive human behavior can be. The lead cast is a terrific bunch and as always depicts their characters with a fervor that sends a chill down your spine. Jung Jae-In is a perfect fit for this show with the amount of action, horror, gore, and also the wide range of emotions it needs to be used and depicted. The side characters no matter how small their role plays a crucial role in taking the drama forward.

With just 6 episodes and more to come in a slated season 2, D.P is easily among the best social dramas that I have seen. It serves you the truth as it is, no glitter is added to it, not even the slightest bit. It is cut-throat and gore filled but it is the living reality of many.
