The First Responders

Let's say this kind of serie is very common, but usually they doesn't have three different "First Responders" working so well together, and with such a amazing Chemistry even on point in every situation.

This is definitely not your average KDrama, full of cringy romantic scenes and the usual on and off love history.

The second season was a rollercoaster even better than the first one, a lot of tears it's what I can say about the beginning of the second season, but ends with a miscellaneous cases of different types of Police series with quick-witted cases, making sense of the fire department working with the PD and the NFS, it's easier to make the last two work at the same cases but have the Fire department within also, was a great demonstration of expertise, with a fulfilling end and great performances of all cast. Rae-won Kim was brilliant, his performance was one of the greatest one's I ever watch.

Totally worth it Show.

The story as the title suggests looks at the work of the Police, Fire and Medical services. The acting is superb and the plot has many interesting incidents concerning the various teams which as you would expect are all wrapped up and solved. I must admit after two series I was a little tired of the constant heroics of the indestructible lead actors. I think if the had dialled it back a little and spent more time on the bonds between them and their personalities it would have been better. It is still worth a watch and even though it is over the top it reminds us we should be thankful to those people who are in the front line.

This is definitely going to be worth your time if you love series that has to do with hospital workers, firefighters or the police force.

It's captivating and eventful. A bit funny sometimes. Also a tiny sprinkle of romance (Wish it was more of that though.)

Awesome serie with absolutely brilliant actors! The theme song is lovely as well. Can't wait until the new season comes out!! :D

(This part of the review is just a filler, because apparently we can't decide for ourselves anymore how short/long the reviews are going to be, and I don't really have anything more to write, sooo...+×,>^+,,.)

Looks like there's a maverick on the force.

A firefighter, a paramedic, and a cop walk into a bar. It's not a joke. It's a script. It's pretty exciting, too. Watching them investigate is entertaining.

TFR is a 2022 release of 2 seasons consisting of 24 65-minute episodes and S3 is expected to be announced. It is rated 91 on AWiki. The name seems especially generic, so I wasn't convinced when I started it, but Kdramas with boring titles are often a pleasant surprise. These ? Stories are downright arresting.

Kim Rae Won (Decibel, A Wild Apricot) is Jin HoGae, one of those universally cool types. His first credits are from 1998; he's been around for awhile. This is my first look at him and I get the appeal. He has several interactions with his father, and it's never been less convincing to me that two actors were related by blood. Their scenes seem slightly off, they're so unlikely to be father and son. HoGae must take after his mother. He's our maverick, and he's completely unpredictable.

In S2, HoGae is being promoted to head of the NOI investigation team. He's at the fancy ceremony. The auditorium is full. He suddenly stands up and announces that he can't accept the promotion. As he walks out of the building, somebody chases him outside and asks what he's doing? "I don't like the color of the building," he quips. He rides off on his motorcycle. James Dean has nothing on him.

Son Ho Jun (Was It Love-7.4, Go Back Couple) is Bong Do Jin. He's got a nice presence. Both he and HoGae are interested in Song Seol (Gong Seung Yeon from Circle, Re-Born & My Only Love Song-8.7). This actress is a charmer. I'm a fan. There are, once again, amazing child actors. In ep5 a little girl steals the show. She completely upstages our ML. Director Shin Kyung Soo also brought us The Nokdu Flower & Six Flying Dragons, while screenwriter Min Ji Eun penned Partners for Justice.

In S2, ep1, Choi Won-Young plays an arsonist. He's brilliant. I've seen him in The Golden Spoon-8.1, Mystic Pop-Up Bar-8.2, The Heirs-7.3, and the excellent SKY Castle-9. He's different in everything; a real talent.

Oh Eui Shik makes an appearance towards the end of S1 and takes on a more regular role in S2. I've been a fan of his since Oh My Ghost-10, one of my gateway Kdramas. I love it so much that I love every actor on the cast. This guy really does seem to be sprinkled with fairy dust because he's in a lot of features, and they're all successful. I've seen him in While You Were Sleeping-7.3, Familiar Wife-8.5, The Hymn of Death-8.4, Romance Is a Bonus Book-7.9, Touch Your Heart-8.2, Hi Bye, Mama-6.5, My Unfamiliar Family-7.9 Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha-8.2 & Big Mouth-7.4. He gets to be more than a sidekick in S2. I just want to see more & more of him, now.

First responders are police, fire, and paramedics. The ME and prosecutors will also be at a live crime scene. We follow all these careers in the show. Cases that pop up are arson, kidnapping, suicide under suspicious circumstances, statutory rape, a hit-and-run, missing persons, and all the while there's corruption teeming In the background. Among the decent folk there's the everyday clashes that must occur, especially among sleep deprived adrenaline junkie types who exist on instant food and soju. Jin stops a helicopter with a fire hose~>> B@d@$$. There's the promise of romance, too.

It has its lapses. In the last motif of S2, some things don't make sense. Two of the characters overheard the bad guy on a speaker and they should have been able to recognize him. Furthermore, Detective Jin had an opportunity to tell them who the bad guy was. It's inexplicable that he did not. While they address it later, it is less than satisfactory. The plot gets a tad outrageous in S2, which begins as a seamless continuation of S1. It's still quite a bit of fun. I didn't find it difficult to take the ride with them. Some certainly will. They kill off cats in both seasons. That's a problem Hollywood has had for decades. It's leeching out into Kcountry now.

Overall, TFR is a great ride. S2 has even more high budget special effects, particularly grand conflagrations and massive collapses. S2 also has a good old-fashioned gangland beat down showing about 50 men fighting with fists and sticks. It looks like a 1970s rumble.

Can a maverick go-it-alone forever? To the fiery end? Watch and see. You probably won't regret it.
