Bad Prosecutor

Korean Drama " Bad Prosecutor " threw reality out the window in exchange for comedy, but failed to deliver any laughter.

First of all, if you are a fan of Doh Kyung Soo you won't be disappointed. He does a great job with his performance and he is energetic and fun to watch. The rest of the cast, especially the leading lady, also did a great job with their characters and their performances were flawless. The chemistry was overflowing between them as well.

On the other hand, the rest of the drama was a huge disappointment. The story is basic corruption in the mists of those in power, with very few surprises. However, the ways the main character tried to bring them to justice were unrealistic and over the top, not to mention criminal, even though he is never punished for his actions. Thus, the twists got unbelievable as well.

Next up is the soundtrack. Not that the songs weren't good, but they were added in scenes that didn't fit their vibe.

Finally, the comedy aspect was weak, as the scenes were made overexaggerating which resulted into them being idiotic not funny.

So, overall, 3 out of 10.

Really loves doh kyungsoo acting in this drama. He shows a lot of silly behaviours that makes me laugh a lot in the middle of my assignments, even if i feel stressed out but he gotta makes me laugh lol hahahaa. And now that he leaves SM i feel so grateful. Now is the time for me to reciprocate for him, and now that he released popcorn song it really makes it become addictive hahhahaha. I wanna watch this a lot of time because it is really fun and never get bored. Just by seeing kyungsoo eulgul it makes my heart warms. Thank you doh kyumgsoo for existing i will never left you behind okay,, even if my age is 10 years younger than him i still love his art as it is.

I love that the first episode has a lot of action and things going on. Usually first episodes are really boring, but definitely not this one.

And usually crime series are very serious, but this one has so much comedy. There is also a lot of action, making the drama really fun to watch. And it's really keeping me on the edge.

The pace is also really good. Not too slow.

It's a must watch.

Even if you don't like crime series, I am sure you will like this one.

I think I will be watching this multiple times.

I really hope it gets another season.

The cast is also amazing, especially Do Kyungsoo.

His acting is the best.

The number of ridiculous plot twist is over the top and almost no character has a normal and coherent behaviour, may be the female lead though she is not a great actress

The only remarcable portrayal of a character should be the one delivered by Kim Sang Ho, but the script is just simply bad even for him to achieve anything enjoyable.

The team of comic secondary characters at least is somehow funny, probably thats why there is only a few moments with them on screen, writters probably run out of ideas.

Avoid unless you are a hardcore fan of the male lead, because thats all you will get, lots of close-ups of his face trying to deliver some emotion I just couldnt identify.

Unfortunately, this show lacked to deliver on all points. Full of movie cliches and lines. I should have stopped watching when I saw a body fall from a high building. And how does a body fall..... Exactly: always on it's back on a parked car. Sooooo boring. Maybe this show was aimed at a teenage or younger audience.

I kept on watching because I admire Kim Sang Ho. He is absolutely great. But his performance couldn't save this show, neither could the excellent performances of these very good actors Kim Chang Wan, Choi Kwang-Il and Kim Tae-Woo.

Lee Se-Hee was at no point believable. Definitely not as the superior of the main character. Do Kyung-Soo made his character much too slick, totally unconvincing. Too cliché in his sort of arrogant teenage acting showing too much an almost frightening twisting of his lips especially on his right side, making it look like a super enlarged mouth twist of an Elvis having Parkinson.

I was hoping it would get better, but this TV series looked like a video clip for Do Kyung-Soo, who has still so much to learn where acting is concerned. Ha Jun looked more promising to me. He was definitely much more in the moment; controlling his world as Oh Do-hwan, but he also doesn't have the depth of a solid actor yet. But I'm almost sure he will.

The camera work wasn't too impressive I'm sorry to say and the directing lacked to give any surprises, although the many ridiculous plot twists may let you sniff at.

All in all, a very bad show if it wasn't for the excellent performances of the actors, I've mentioned in the second paragraph. One point each for those four actors.
