I always thought of writing my first review on a 'worthy' drama. When I first looked into the MDL profile of this drama, only around 23 people watching it and the ratings were a bit shabby. As per its genre, the poster, the name of this drama, all gave me a mystical vibe, that's why I chose to watch right while it was airing.
The fateful first episode aired and I was like- BOOM!!! What did I just watch? What was that mysterious feeling I was having over this drama? This was the very thing I have been waiting for... I instantly forgot Sherlock, forgot True Detective, this is the ultimate MYSTERY DRAMA!!! The detectives here were simple people, nothing extraordinary like Sherlock Holmes but the level of sincerity they showed during solving each cases, made them fantastic and more realistic. A drama aimed at solving REAL cold cases was purely ingenious, that too by mixing a bit of a supernatural element. Forget the idea of it being a remake, it wasn't anything like Memories of Murder, it was purely THRILLS and SPILLS. When it was airing, I remember waiting anxiously each week for those blessed 2 episode, the wait seemed like forever.
When the drama ended, I was crying, not because it ended so quickly (being just 16 episodes) but because of having fortune of being able to experience such a drama- the acting, the plot, cinematography all were in SPOT and also fortunate enough to have the unique of waiting for new episodes to air (while it was still airing).
I know many fans won't be willing to have a second season fearing they might ruin the "impression" but I truly wish that if the directors can pull off such a great drama at first go, they won't be looking into dampening their hard work at the second season. So people, wait no longer and get into the experience of this spectacular drama. :)

My initial thought right at the time when the movie ended- "That was indeed merciless and monstrous" and then I recalled that the name of the movie was itself "No Mercy". At first I want to state that this drama is not for the ones with a weak heart, irrespective of the gore, this drama possesses a bitter taste to the bile and indeed this is highly recommended to the strong hearted ones because you won't regret it. This movie recommended to me by a friend and truly I wasn't held back from my position for even a second. If you like crime thriller and deep devotee of the classic Old Boy (2003), then this movie is just the one for you.
