Good Enough
Korean Drama 'My Name' is a mini-series with a noir story and an action-packed mood.
The story starts pretty strongly, with a character-driven plot, and it centers around the main lead and her connections with those around her while being triggered by the revenge she vows to execute if she finds her father's killer. However, the story gets predictable quite quickly. The timeline, also, was not handled that great, something that applies to the dream scenes as well.
The drama actually needed more time to be properly developed, as the short length meant a rushed progress of the story as well. Still, the atmosphere was there and the action scenes were masterfully executed. The romance could have been omitted though, as the strongest relationship of the drama was that between the main lead and her father's friend, which was also the dramatic factor of the plot.
Finally, the performances were excellent by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, 6.5 out of 10.
