Deserter Pursuit

Must watch series from Netflix KOREA.

1. The problems are most definitely real and you will sympathize with every character.

2. I did not actually expect the series to be funny ....but it was.

3. The CHEMISTRY between the actors is everything.

Even the Cameos and the whole cast was excellent.

Especially the relationship between the two leads.

4. The storyline was unique but (seemed) very much true ,and even inspiring at a point.

5. You might even cry.

For everyone who wants to watch a slice of life, real, non-romantic, a binge watchable series this is IT.

This is a stunning example of how cinema or TV can be used to get people to be aware of and discuss something important.

I can only imagine what it must be like to live in a country with compulsory military service, but this show and all of the cast do an excellent job of humanising (as in tells a human story) the situations that must occur when service is only a choice if you are rich or connected enough to make use of the loopholes.

A must watch. But not an easy one.

A new recruit is assigned to the DP who are responsible for bringing back soldiers who have gone AWOL. A well acted drama which looks at the the unfair treatment of soldiers of all ranks and how bullying can become systematic. Each episode deals with the causes of why the soldier deserted and the efforts to return him. In a country where conscription is compulsory it will hopefully make the people look at the vicious cycle of bullying from all ranks against ordinary people carrying out service.

Netflix Korea has done it again. Here's another well written/directed/acted series that deals with a difficult subject so often buried by a system that does not support the victims. This series doesn't pull its punches and just gets better and better as each episode progresses. Superb cast.

This film informs viewers of the reality of the Korean conscription army, 100% without any manipulation or beautification. I joined the Korean military in 2012 and was discharged in 2014. I guarantee that there is no malicious description of the Korean military in this film. This is 100% real, but there are more terrible things in reality. Even though Korea is a free democratic country, it is dragging young men and treating like slaves. And without paying fair treatment, he put it in a beast cage like that drama and forced everything. Despite living in such an environment, Korea does not pay any respect or compensation for the soldier. KPOP, K DRAMA, and so on are all false. This is the reality of Korea. I hope you guys don't admire this beastly country. And i hope you guys respect all soldier in this world.
