We're back with Eun-sol and Baek-beom, whilst there are several cast changes, with 2 central characters having moved on and been replaced, plus some additions.
The plot is thickening as we pick up on the corruption and cover ups that were being brought to light in series 1, together with some additional side stories. Familiar villains resurface and crimes overlap again as things begin to come to a head.
I found series 2 to have a better pace than the first and Eun-sol really comes into her own.
I really couldn't warm to Sally Kim at all though and thought the interaction between her and Eun-sol was over the top.
I just loved actor Noh Min Woo in this series and I really felt for his broken character, who is so badly manipulated.
There are more unpleasant crimes and the spin on what seems obvious, that the post mortems uncover, shows some really clever story writing.
Many questions are answered, but the conclusion is far from favourable and whilst there was no "We'll be back" or "To be continued" (like the end of series 1), there is a definite door ajar for either a series 3 or even some kind of spin-off.
The rewatch value is pretty good just because there was a lot going on.
I really hope we see Eun-sol, Baek-beom, Do Ji-han, Yang Soo-dong, Jang Chul, et al, again in 2021 (fingers crossed).
