Bloodhounds

I've been watching kdramas daily for ten years now and there are some incredible kdramas which typically fall apart at the end, or sometimes in the middle. But Bloodhounds is consistently thrilling and gripping throughout. With a simple premise but incredible characters, direction, good action, exciting performances all round, Bloodhounds has everything you could want from an action thriller.

Following two boxers as they form a strong friendship whilst they overcome their struggles against an evil loan shark and his gang. Woo Do-hwan and Lee Sang-Yi carry this kdrama on their strong backs as they team up to overthrow the villainous loan sharks and get vengeance.

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.

Honestly, I've seen people calling it unrealistic but it doesn't matter because the drama keeps you hooked. It's a good drama but the problem is in 5-6 episode they removed the nice characters. Even the female lead left after ep 6 which was annoying I expected more from her. I thought she will take a revenge for her grandfather but she was nowhere to be found. Even the nice characters who died, they didn't show any backstory of what happened to them in the end. The ending was good but how they did not cleared it out to the audience was very annoying. I'm mostly disappointed by the female lead leaving the drama in the middle and they also didn't show what happened to the victim's family who were in danger. That thing is going to bother you. Overall it's a good drama the boxing and the stunts were mind blowing. It will keep you hooked. The bromance in the show was really cute. Amazing acting.

Bloodhounds offers a thrilling and captivating experience that is sure to leave you on the edge of your seats. This action-packed series is nothing short of entertaining, delivering a compelling storyline combined with impressive action sequences.

The series weaves together an intriguing narrative filled with twists, turns, and great action. The well-crafted storyline keeps viewers guessing and eagerly anticipating each new episode.

One of the highlights of Bloodhounds is its spectacular action scenes. The choreography and execution of these sequences are commendable, delivering adrenaline-pumping moments that showcase the skills and abilities.

Moreover, the character development is praiseworthy. Each member of the team has a unique personality and background, allowing viewers to connect with and root for them. The chemistry among the actors adds depth and authenticity to their interactions.

Overall, an amazing series that successfully combines a good storyline, great action scenes, and a talented cast. With its engaging plot twists and well-executed action sequences, it keeps viewers hooked from start to finish. If you love action and enjoy binge-watching, Bloodhounds is definitely worth your time.

Woo Do-hwan and Lee Sang-yi play amateur boxers who after facing each other in the ring become firm friends. Through family they become embroiled in taking down a ruthless loan shark who kills anybody who gets in his way. Even though they face unbelievable odds against armed gangsters using only their fists they seek to bring down his violent reign. It is a violent, bloody series and the body count is high, well choreographed fight scenes even though they are mostly unrealistic. The story becomes a little disjointed as Kim Sae Ron who plays the daughter of a kind hearted loan shark who was helping them in the earlier episodes was written out due to a D. U. I. Incident. Need to be a fan of the underdog fighting for justice to really enjoy this one.
