Such a combination of crime-mystery, which are completely different from the traditional dramas, is not seen very often. According to Drama, the rating is very low which is probably due to cast influence. But if you ask me, I would call it one of the best contemporary dramas. If you have time, you can take a look, or you will miss something great.

This series is really surrounded by a very dark past. As you discover the events that took place 20 years ago, you start to see some twisted things. I really enjoyed watching the lead actor. He's pretty much one of the most intriguing characters I've ever seen. A person with unusual intelligence and a knack for being very misleading. I could say that he is one of those characters that seem to be in control of everything around him. My only disappointment was the ending. I hoped for something very epic for a series with a big hidden secret but the writer failed miserably to take any advantage of that. Something like the ending of of the movie Glass (2019) would have been perfect. Still, I believe it is a must watch!!!

Finished South Korean series "Awaken" yesterday. I've tried some other Korean series before, but those that went my way were "meh". This one started out with some silliness, but later it was amazing. Good cinematography, amazing soundtrack, intrigue and suspense kept through out the whole series, although the sources of both did change. I mean, there still were some silly and unrealistic moments (especially those related to technology and science), but I found them minor enough compared to the quality of everything else to not be bothered by them at all. If you have 16 hours to spare - highly recommended.

This is criminally under-rated. I ve watched it 2-3 weeks back and i m still living in the drama. I just cant get it out of my system. The cast, direction and audio...everything is phenomenal. I d rate it above all the dramas i've ever watched.

I was pleased even with the ending. Good mystery throughout. As always, Nam Minmoong was superb!
