A Bloody Lucky Day

A Bloody Lucky Day is yet another hit series out of South Korea. I had no expectations going in to this as the premise did not sound too original, but I was dead wrong on that.

Our taxi driver protagonist (played by Lee Sung-min) starts off as an ordinary middle aged man, but the changes you see in his character are truly what makes the series a worthwhile and suspenseful viewing experience. He and our protagonist (played by Yoo Yeon-seok) also have great on-screen chemistry. The acting all around is top notch.

The creators of A Bloody Lucky Day certainly show their filmmaking prowess here by keeping the show fresh and interesting. There is hardly a dull moment.

Forgive me if this is a little bit vague. All I can say is give this series a chance, you won't be able to look away!

I have watched 498 kdramas and movies. This is one of the top 10 best acted, best scripted, most suspenseful of them all. It's so brutal and bloody ,but I was so engaged I couldn't look away. The cinematography and atmosphere are rich and intense. Don't miss it! The plot revolves around an encounter between a serial killer and a loving family man who fell victim to a scammer and lost all of his money. He becomes a taxi driver to try to make money to regain and reset his life. He ends up picking up a passenger who will stand in the way of his path to recovery. It's becomes a real thrill ride. Watch it!!

My wife and I both enjoyed this show immensely , we watched all 10 episodes over 3 evenings , the plot is clever, unpredictable and well thought out. The main characters were all played by excellent actors. I would say if you liked the movie Parasite then it's highly likely that you will enjoy this series , I watched it with the English dubbing on and was impressed with the voices and after a while forgot that it was dubbed .

I really don't understand why the programme has a rating as low as 7.3 , the other shows I've watched so far this year are Severance, another K drama called Stranger and The Day of the Jackal and although I liked all of these I thought Bloody Lucky Day was better

give this show a spin I don't think many will be disappointed .

Sometimes I just love chilling out to crap TV.... I just tune out and disappear....right?

But this isn't that.

This is quirky, different and decidedly Unpredictable.

It's interesting and edgy....

I'm telling you I'm a BIG FAN of Korean TV.

You'll be on the edge of your seat, screaming at the screen, arguing with your friends about details, and planning your own escape, defense and attack at the SAME TIME.

It's hilariously different from Western TV. Hilarious blended with the perfect amount of Excitement.

It's actually quite brilliant.

It takes a certain level of intelligence to let go of preconceived notions and formatting....but if you're open....you will LOVE this series.

Quirky. Funny. Exciting.

There is nothing to do, when the Koreans want to hit and shock the viewer they succeed and do not make discounts and this excellent mini series is the proof.

A Bloody lucky day is a tour de force in the meanders of human madness and wickedness and everything is told without discounts or censorship, all the horror and gratuitous wickedness that emanates from the character of Lee Beyong Sin freezes the blood, among other things excellent performance by Yoo Yeon Seok really excellent, and we end up in a whirlwind of truly devastating madness.

Also great is the character of Oh Taek (extraordinary Lee Sung Min) of which we see the change during the various episodes, from a helpless victim and incapable of reacting to a ruthless avenger.

The story nails the viewer to the chair from the first to the last episode, the script, with continuous flashbacks is written impeccably, without even the slightest smudge, something increasingly rare, especially in bad American productions.

A series that you absolutely must watch, knowing that in the end you will be left shocked and disturbed.
