A series with potential but..

I think this series is an adaptation of a Korean comic which I have not read and I think the beginning of the series the first 4-7 might interest you in reading the comic however what was once an engaging plot line with a pay off ended up being a haphazard and disappointing build up to a random ending which built up hype in between scenes just to throw it all away which I couldn't believe. The battle between Hee Woo and Cho Tae Sob was satisfactory up until Sang Man was supposed to meet him and then the balance between Hee Woo using his concealed conviction to take down Cho Tae Sob against Cho Tae Sob and his dominating political power he coveted from blackmailing and other illegal methods. This was because Hee Woo's close friend Sang Man was thrown off a building which was about 555m tall and ended up in critical condition, yes not dead but in critical condition and in a coma he was supposed to meet with Cho Tae Sob to discuss his shares in a company but he didn't show up because Hee Woo knew it was too dangerous. Instead Hee Woo showed up to the meeting with Cho Tae Sob and declared his true ambitions during that meeting, during that Sang Man was abused by Cho Tae Sob's men and thrown off a building. Hee Woo declaring his ambitions then was too early but everything was rushed because Cho Tae Sob was still in full power and there was 3 episodes left of the season..


In this series there is character development happening to certain characters which determine who they are in the show with certain morals, when tested with these morals for years they withstand following their desires; bribes, covering up crimes in the prosecution and high positions in the social hierarchy, however characters that have some development giving you understanding of who they are end up doing 360s that don't even make sense like Jeon Seok Gyu taking a better position and trying to silence Hee Woo and do things himself when he knows Hee Woo has what it takes to battle with Cho Tae Sob.

Cho Tae Sob was a powerful figure with control over the prosecution, media and seat holders in the assembly and he was also meticulous and he knew Jeon Seok Gyu wouldn't follow his instructions yet all of a sudden he thinks he will and gives him a position which gives him control of the prosecutors and makes him weaker not to mention his secretary all along was gathering evidence to expose him from day 1 and after this ridiculous battle to get rid of the corruption in the government, Cho Tae Sob is gone and a dead body that matches his DNA is found he disappears because Hee Woo exposes him and his secretary so when that ridiculous battle was over it turned out to be pointless because everyone that was arrested leading up to the fall of Cho Tae Sob came out almost right away because of a rich lady that owns a company wants to use Cho Tae Sobs club of pawns to her disposal to cover up her company's shady business and make as much money as she can while they get their positions back in return.

The plot had strange uses of fake character betrayals just to throw in a flashback every time to show us how that character didn't actually betray the MC even though we knew they had the same goal as the MC because of their past. There was a support role character that was influencing the story that just disappeared after a threat that wasn't effective enough to be honest to have him just not show up anymore and there was a chaebol plot line with family feud supposed to be happening at one point totally ignored to allow the MC and his partners to quickly gain authority over the company. I'm wasn't bothered to remember all the plot lines that were illogical but this series had a lot of potential that wasn't capitalised which was unfortunate.
