The K2

Ji Chang-wook is just amazing, he carried so hard this TV series along with the stepmother, actress Song Yoon-ah. I think they had better chemistry than K2 with Anna. I didn't particularly liked Anna as a character or the actress herself, didn't move me at all. All in all, great series.

The reason you should give this a watch is for an outstanding female antagonist unlike anyone you have ever seen before. Song Yoon Ah who played Choi Yoo Jin is truly remarkable and her character has so much depth that she deservedly outshines everyone in this drama and beyond. I couldn't help but empathize with her throughout the story due to her emotive acting and was constantly rooting for her even though she was the main antagonist.

Things I liked:

• Best female antagonist (unbelievably, she wasn't even nominated for Best Actress at Baeksang Art Awards)
• Fast paced screenplay
• Good action choreography (over the top but enjoyable)

Things I didn't like:

• Quite a few implausible events in the plot

If you like martial arts action with a dose of political intrigue and a side of love story this will hit the spot. I am not a big fan as I can never understand why there is so much hand to hand fighting when they have guns, but I did enjoy the storyline so stuck with it and overall found the series enjoyable. My favourite character was Choi Yoo-Jin played by Song Yoon-ah who though incredibly evil you could sense there was a heart in there somewhere. The love story was ok and but for a person who earns his living fighting hordes of people the male lead was incredibly lucky to keep his stunning good looks to the end.

I was kind pessimistic that Ji Chang Wook could play well in this movie since his face is too handsome, too friendly, and too soft to cast a highly trained spec ops soldier. I thought So Ji Sub would be better for this role since he is bigger and has tougher face than him. But after I see him acting in this movie my doubt disappear. He must be trained and prepared very well in this movie because I can see hungry predatory stare on his eyes and also showing excellent athletic and fighting skill. Two thumbs up for Ji Chang Wook. Also I give special credit to Song Yun-ah who played the role as smart ambitious beautiful and tricky chaebol heirs which you can hardly tell whether she is truly generous or just a gimmick to get sympathy from people. Ji Chang Wook character was half forced to cooperate with this evil woman but he can not refuse her offer because he need her unlimited resources to revenge the death of her lover. The conflict in this movie is kind of complicated since the "good" side is not that good and the "bad" side is not also that bad. Many grey area shown by character in this movie to show how rotten the politics is.

First, Choi Yoo Jin had carried out the role in perfect shot! Well done! Beside having the actions thrill, the story ended without indepth review of the relationship between K2 and Je Ha....sad... An-na role is the most boring part of the show... not much opportunity for her to emphazise different expression...I love the supporting roles which made the entire drama more interesting..all thanks to the professional actors and actresses.. It is a waste to see a talented professional body guard to stay inhouse protecting a lady..this part of the story can improve..I shall say K2 had delivered a good shot of his role. His hairstyle with the long fringe 🤔 still prefer his smart look. Hope to see more of JCW action drama 😃☺ Cloud 9 is the best part that i liked! Mystery is all there for us to find out...haha! Overall the drama can extend few more episode will be perfect!
