Trolley

Everything about this S Korean drama is top notch. The story moves along with no slow boring bits, actors are believable and really invested in their roles. Camera work is nothing spectacular, but then again, this isn't an art house film. Technically, 100% right.

The story, which is basically all a movie/series needs to keep the audience invested, is well written, with intelligent, believable conversations even while watching with subtitles.

I won't go into all the details of the two main families, but it's all twisted political intrigue, with flashback explanation helping carry the story.

Episode 12 - the last: Reality. I found myself shrieking at my TV. OMG NO!! That did not just happen!! Why, but hey, that's good TV. Worthy of the 12 hours you'll invest and the 9 stars I gave.

This drama is SO powerful. Not easily understood by many. The whole drama is as per the title. Referring to the Trolley dilemma. Every decision in the drama was based on this dilemma. The majority of people, when given this problem would sacrifice the one to save the majority but this drama highlighted the moral issue of sacrificing the one to save the majority. Who are we to make that decision? Is the one sacrificed not worthy of any notice? The drama can be slow in some episodes but hits so hard at the end and leaves viewers thinking. Highly recommended for thinkers. Writer should receive an award.

This show is one of the most intriguing I have come across in a very long time. Also proves why K-dramas are seen in such light.

The mysters is ever evolving, just when you think you've finally come to the bottom of a certain character's persona, something happens. Till episode 8th, the story has been very gripping with some new developments that shocked me to the core.

You just can never know someone well enough and this show is a testament to that. They depth in each character, the secrets they are hiding, and the their actions are such a tease.

One of my favourites. Definite recommend. If you dont like to wait for episodes airing every week, wait till it is released in full then binge it. Will be a much more satisfactory watch.

An incident from the past returns to haunt the wife of an ambitious politician which could falter his career. The series is very well acted as each episode exposes a new truth which leaves you wondering who are the good people and who are the bad. It all begins with a tragic incident involving their son and the plot goes on to twist and turn and draws you in. The side stories are interesting and the cast all do an excellent job as your initial opinion of some of the characters over time changes as their true nature is exposed. It is well written and I enjoyed the pace and the main character played by Kim Hyun Joo shows great strength as her life unravels.

The story telling is exceptionally good. They intertwine different parts of the story together very well, and also explores the two sides of every coin. However, the key concept behind the story was exceptional weak. It boils down to amending a particular law. No lawyers worth their salt, nor any sane persons would agree to whatever it was that this show was proposing or advocating. I just don't like it.

Fyi, if you charge a person with a crime, the accused must be alive to defend for himself/herself. If he dies during the 'investigation', he shouldn't be scapegoated into being the 'guilty' party.
