La Traque dans le sang

As a martial arts movie lover and someone who appreciates character development and story telling, this show is actually so good!

Must watch for anyone who loves something like the raid 2 or movies like that in general. Even though I'm not Korean but from the UK, I have really started to appereciate these amazing Korean shows they have been putting on Netflix.

Haven't been hooked to a show from the first episode in a while and this has done it. I can't wait for season 2! I hope they put they make a season 2 because it defo deserves it. Even if they make a tournament style movie it would be cool!

I mean, if koreans want to do quality you get quality.

This was such a ride. The story and characters hook you from the very beginning and it is so thrilling and upbeat you never get your eyes of the screen ( literally binged it for the whole 8 episodes)

The fighting choreographies are AWESOME and you can tell the immensely amount of work the main leads have put into not only to get in shape but to completely get into the mindset of a boxer and a fighter, they make the characters so believable and genuine.

I have followed Woo Do-hwan for a long time and I just cant get enough of his acting, loved his tender, caring yet fierce character here.

I absolutely loved the two main leads personalities and how well one compensates the other. They have such a strong and beautiful bond and friendship.

If i have to find some faults ( even when this was almost perfect) is maybe the length ( probably 2 episodes too long) and the dragging of the main plot, when the bad guys keep getting away with everything and the good guys make mistakes a bit too obvious, which it gets frustrating at times.

Also I loved the Tempted mini reunion with his old co start and friend Kim Min-jae, shame that they didn't have any scenes together!

Heo Joon Ho needs a special mention as well, as the good guy ( for once!) I love his acting and he manages for me to hate him with passion or love him depending on his role. This guy is absolutely chamaleonic.

Other than that, what an amazing series!!! I really hope it has a second season!

The show is not as simple as you've seen it from the trailer. It has a little bit more complicated stories and characters, but not too far off. It has brotherhood, bloody fight, mukbang, and above all, it's a fast pace show. The choreography of the fights in this show is also well done. It's just as good as another korean show from Netflix, My name. The martial arts or fight actions scenes in modern korean movies and tv shows are arguably better than any other action movies whether it's from hollywood, or outside of hollywood. They has more realistic fights. It's fast and furious literally. They don't have those showy exaggerated moves that look like choreographed dance. Unfortunately, this show also has those typical cliche moments like My Name especially those tear-jerky ones. That's my biggest pet peeve in korean tv shows and movies. Although there's a sudden change of pace (It was quite a ride until episode 6), and the ending is a bit rushed and shortened, overall, the show is quiet entertaining. The fight scenes are worth visit more than once. I give solid 7.5/10.

There is nothing in this series that could take away from the 10 star rating, nothing I would think should be changed as it would take away from the plot and the story. It really shows what the power of friendship and determination can do to change the world for good, whilst also showing the economic reality and hardship people went through during the COVID pandemic.

If you are looking for something to watch with some old fashioned street fighting, a bit of drama and a compelling story, look no further.

It's good to see South Korean getting out of their comfort zone and making stories and shows like this one.

What can I say about this Action/Crime/Thiller Series? It just has the right stuff simply put, the right amounts of what makes an Action/Crime movie like say The Raid 2 great, The Bloodhounds story spans 8 episodes with a total running time of about 9 hrs and there is never a dull moment, it trully has a lot of elements mixed into the story to keep you interested throughout, I say the series in 2 days, could have watched it in 1 night if I didn't have to work in the morning, this series pulls no punches but never goes to extreme levels, as examples of Extremes: The Raid 2 & The Night Comes for Us come to mind, this falls a notch below. On the violence scale like say The Man from Nowhere, but it's 85% Fists Fights and Bats with about 15% Knife Fights, Just Perfection in my opinion, This production crew and writters should immediately start producing Season 2, could even use Different actors like True Detective Series did, After Watching Bloodhounds, Imagine that type of story told in the 1400s,1800s, maybe even 1930s because even the same story type completely changes the feel of everything with the era, This Series struck Solid Gold in My Opinion, Thank You, and Can We please another one.
