Manipulado

"A man whose life was shattered begins his relentless pursuit of justice." 'The Manipulated' is a classic vengeance thriller, but it doesn't make it a cookie-cutter story either. Certain scenarios are more cruel, violent, and edgy than American dramas are known to be, so it helps the series stand out a bit more than other K-dramas. Any fans of Ji Chang Wook or underdog rising tales will enjoy the knockdowns and triumphs of this action-packed story.

I was really surprised when I heard the director say, 'I wrote the character Ahn Yohan with Doh Kyungsoo in mind,' but as I kept watching the series, I couldn't think of a better actor for this role. Unlike typical villains, watching someone who plays with people's lives purely for fun is much more entertaining in my opinion. I hope to see Doh Kyungsoo and Ji Chang Wook receive the awards they deserve at the ceremonies, because both of them are doing an amazing job.

"The Manipulated" is a gripping masterpiece from start to finish of every episode which has been released so far (Eps 1-6). The storyline, cinematography, and direction are all top-notch - every scene feels meticulously crafted. Changwook delivers a powerful performance that anchors the story beautifully.

But let's be honest - Doh Kyungsoo as the antagonist is a real scene-stealer. His playful yet cold calculated presence and emotional precision commands your attention. You're supposed to hate the villain... but not when it's Doh Kyungsoo.

The Manipulated is an exceptional production with equally exceptional performances. Disney+ truly delivered with this one. 👏🔥

Wow... I didn't expect The Manipulated to hit this hard! From the very first episode, it grabs you and doesn't let go. Ji Chang Wook absolutely kills it. The emotions, the rage, the quiet pain, you can feel every bit of it. He's truly in his element again!

The story moves fast, every scene feels important and the action is just chef's kiss. It's darker and grittier than most K-dramas but that's what makes it stand out. You can tell the cast and crew gave everything to make this one unforgettable.

Every episode ends with that "I need the next one right now!" feeling. I'm hooked and I know a lot of people are going to be too. Ji Chang Wook doesn't miss and The Manipulated proves it once again. Can't wait to see how this story unfolds! 💥👏

OMG this drama is simply excellent! The first two episodes had me in tears. The entire cast are providing the viewers with some great acting! I wanted D. O. To play a good character but he's a menace! This drama is definitely addictive! I am only on episode 3 but I am sitting on the edge of my couch! The writing is simply top notch. Thank you Hulu for this amazing drama!👏
