Full of Huge Plot Holes from Episode 1

My biggest issue is that right from episode 1, what are supposed to be major plot points already make no sense. There’s a big uproar over the evil spirits consuming and gaining the counters’ powers, but as level 3 spirits these “new” powers are all things they should already be able to do (with the exception of the healer’s abilities). Psychokinesis and mind-reading were already things that came with the territory of being a level 3, so it really makes no sense that this is being played up so much.

So Mun’s new look is fantastic with the longer hair, but the same can’t be said for his attitude. In season 1, his whole plot line was based around his determination to “stick up for the little guy”- even when it was someone that might’ve treated him badly in the past (like the mayor’s son). But in season 2, one of the first things we see him doing is scolding a very young and clearly distressed child just for speaking to him rudely. Sure, this season takes place a year or two later and it’s understandable that he might grow and change some, but there’s definitely a feeling that he’s grown a bit in the wrong direction. He was originally the moral glue for the team that wouldn’t allow them to ignore wrongdoings even when evil spirits weren’t involved, but it seems like now his role is just to be an immensely OP character that has to almost single-handedly hold up the entire team.

I haven’t finished the season yet and plan to keep watching a little further, but I have a gut feeling I will probably end up dropping the show before the end. I was so excited to see Yoo In Soo in this season since I just recently finished All Of Us Are Dead, but I’m struggling to even make it through to his first appearance (and after reading some other reviews, I’m worried that it’ll end up being pretty disappointing anyways).
