Vigilante

The initial episode is quite exciting and tense, a policeman who turns into a "Vigilante". The Vigilante himself is someone who enforces the law in his own way even though sometimes his method violates the rules of law because the justice system fails him when criminals get a short sentence and are released, that's why the main character becomes a punisher. Towards people who commit criminal acts. This impulse begins with the desire to avenge the crime committed by a thug which resulted in his mother's death. I don't know if a genre like this makes the audience more enthusiastic than a romance story whose ending is easy to predict and ends like that, I hope there are more Korean dramas like this.

Power-packed, pulsating, dark drama about a vigilante who gives his own justice. Firstly, the main lead is my second favorite kdrama actor and what a awesome actor he is. Vulnerable in his portrayal yet dominating in his execution. I loved watching start-up and couldn't stop watching this actor. The drama itself, the writing is top notch. The music is a thrill and gives you goosebumps. This is like taxi driver 2.0. I had to write a review because of the actor and drama. 2023 was not a good year for kdrama since most of it is predictable and passable. Nothing really interesting about these shows released. They are all lame, dull, and very unrealistic, loud, and noisy. Anyways, watch the pilot and you'll know what I am saying.

This feel good action series grips from the first scene. Love the battle between those on the vigilante's side and the villains.

This series feels so real and emotionally involving because of the thugs terrorizing New York and San Francisco now beating up old ladies and pushing people in front of subway trains. All repeat offenders let out to murder again and again by woke politicians and DAs. The case for vigilantism is made out here.

What a fantastic cast. Nam Joo Hyuk's boyish face makes the vigilante sympathetic. Yoo Ji Tae gained so much weight to play the tough guy cop. Lee Joon Hyuk always the best supporting actor from City Hunter to this role.

This is an excellent series. Sharp and to the point and with terrific meaningful action.

Yesterday finished another kdrama......'Vigilante'

Based on webtoon of same name, this - "Vigilante" is an action thriller in which Kim Ji-yong ( Nam Joo-hyuk), who is a diligent student of Police academy by day, serves justice as vigilante to innocents on weekends.

Predictable vigilante story yet enjoyable, this intense drama has many well-known actors, who performed well. Action scenes are superb, specially hand to hand combat sequences. Drama has strong, whimsical female character.

Drama has some plotholes though.

Nam Joo-hyuk transforms himself into ferocious beast, his voice modulation as vigilante, body language & action is something to look for. Yoo Ji-tae is amazing as always. Lee Joon-hyuk surprised me, liked him.

My Nam again proved his versatility.

I discovered this series on Disney+, without having heard anything about it. I don't really like any of the Marvel series I have watched. This one has a different approach. I don't know exactly what it is, but it doesn't burn out after introducing the general character of the (anti-)hero. The presentation of the protagonist's every day live is really enjoyable, and not too generic or boring/dramatic. At the time I write this, there are only 6 episodes or so - so I can only speak for them. It might dry out in the next episodes, it might not. Time will tell. Until then, I definitely recommend it to those who are interested in the vigilante type of story.
