robotic swoosh sounds
(i dont rate rewatch value, neutral)
i need more sh!t like this!! this drama is on the verge of outrageous from the get, and just goes there more and more. transhumanism to 3 varying extremes in 3 of our 4 leading good guys (dont play around with min-a tho, she'll snap you in half either way), zombies, mindcontrolled goons, and an endless barrage of unecessery (sometimes quite shocking) death on the baddie side. every last fight scene is fu€#ing (how wish i could curse here) blockbuster level, with the cheesiest robotic transformers ass sounds behind every swing. 10yr old me was JUMPING the same way anyone infront Gi-Beom or tae woong's punches was when they were sent comically leaping.
on the one hand virtually everything is one-upped, but then when we to the storytelling, they actually choose to tone things down a notch to elevate it in that way. not saying it's not a completely engaging and exciting story, it freaking is, and i love everyone with my whole heart, but they do take a step back compared to shows where theres 10 different plot lines you're anticipating to get resolved. here they purposely limit it to just a few, and take enough time with them that it's only really towards the end when they kick into full effect. most of the journey up to that is just pieces of the puzzle organically being layed out. in that sense they accomplish that rare thing of making every one of the random action scenes count towards a greater goal. we feel Gi-Beom growing stronger. ..we feel his modification growing stronger. and they're challenging one another.
if you like action dramas this is a nobrainer. i'm already a few eps into 'Bad Guys' starring my boy Tae Woong with babyface ? but same role ?
such a wholesome ending too, still brought the laughs with mere minutes left on the clock.
