How to be a badass and fucking awesome!
It's always interesting when a drama delivers quality in script, text, and acting, but this spin-off becomes one of those cases that go unnoticed by the public, and for a very prosaic reason: its limited distribution to the South Korean territory. The solution? Well, let's just say that many of us had to resort to "alternative means" to watch. How ironic, isn't it? A production that deserves visibility and yet seems to be content with obscurity.
Among the highlights, it is impossible not to mention Bong Shik, who turned prosecutor Cho Byeong Gun into an envious and delightfully over-the-top caricature. The actor delivered a performance that alone would be worth the episodes. In parallel, Baek SunHo, with his rookie prosecutor, had few scenes but was precise, offering a striking and objective presence. He wasn't the type of character to steal the spotlight, but his energy complemented the plot effectively.
As for the outcome, there is a certain subtlety that suggests a possible continuation. And honestly, why not? If the level of execution remains the same, it would be a pleasure to revisit this universe. Let's just hope that next time, the distribution barriers are smaller. After all, talent like this deserves to be seen — legally, preferably.
