Review:-The Fiery Priest (2019)

The Priest Kim Nam Gill is using his Bidam like skills on these bad people. Love it. So happy that this is now on Netflix and I can watch the whole thing and not just bits. It starts hard and goes hard. He’s so awesome. We so love his fighting skills makes us just fangirl all over him. Such a babe. He looks big with his priest gears on but underneath his clothes he’s still the slim gorgeous guy we know and love.

He was an undercover agent for the NIS who became a priest. He looks so immaculate in black, love him. He is so good at acting and in this drama he’s funny too. I have missed watching this formidable, impressive and terrifying actor.

It really is a sad story about the other Priest that was murdered and made out to be a molestor and a thief when he was one of the good ones and he wasn’t allowed to be buried in the cemetery because they said that he had committed suicide. I don’t understand those catholic ways/traditions. So that priest had saved his life after he had been attacked and was dying. That is how he became a priest.

Oh this is so much better than the previews I watched and so deserving of the all the awards that it won for 2019. This is the cleverest and funniest Korea Drama I have ever watched. I love these Korean women when they play badass fighters. Geum Sae Rok/Seo Seung Ah was the one in this one a new young Korean actor I hadn’t seen before. She was so cool.

This drama has everything in it, thrills, spills, crime, comedy, mystery, friendship, drama and badass action from both males and females. Its such an incredible and powerful drama played by amazing and extraordinary actors. Most of them with superb and astounding Martial Arts talents expertise and techniques.

The Priest Kim Nam Gil/Kim Hae Il / Michael is up against some ruthless, heartless and vindictive foe not just the criminals but his old adversaries from his secret agent history. All of them relentless , cruel and merciless. All trying to hurt him deeply because of some grudge that have against him. They are mercenaries hired by Kim Min Jae/Lee Joong Kwon [NIS agent] to hurt him and his friends. They all served together in the NIS. This ex-agent has driven the priest over the edge. Right till the end they kept using his loved ones as bait to aggravate his anger because he Kim Hae Il had anger issues that he had little control over.. The last episode was reminiscent of Bidam when his enemies brought 15 men to fight him. Seems like they were jealous of his efficiency and his clinical nature when working. It wasn’t as gory as Bidam because he didn’t have a sword but he was just as determined and effective. It was like a fighting show. Its like Bidam gets his redemption ……. Just my opinion.

Go Joon/Hwang Cheol Bum was the protagonist in this drama but I couldn’t help but feel something pitiful for this guy. One of those bad boys that make your heart flutter during parts of the story and you had to admire his fighting skills. The mercenaries are after him as well. He’s a spunk when he’s dress up in normal clothes and not his usual over dressing. Although broken hearted,upset and seemed to have killer instincts he still seemed to have a heart. His men meant a lot to him even though he treated them cruelly at times.

I never thought a drama about a priest could be so fine and so well constructed or that I would enjoy it so much but Kim Nam Dam over extended himself. So worthy of being on my favourite actors list. Such an outstanding drama. Woah!
