Blind

Just focusing on the story, this is chilling, well-made, and all too real. It's a sad commentary on humanity that this type of thing happens with depressing regularity. However, as one of the show's themes underscores: abused children may want revenge, but they seldom turn to life-taking.

The lack of continuity was disappointing. Characters disappear and reappear, as needed. We don't know what happened to some of them and for some, we don't know their backstories. Clearly, the focus was meant to be on the main plot. Rather chilling to think secondary characters were used only to drive it - rather like the main character confessed to doing, using and discarding people to drive his revenge plot.

Production values were a bit off. Scars appear on one side of the face in one scene and the other side, the next. The first murder happens in January - a notoriously cold time in Korea, yet there's no snow on the ground and everyone is wearing light jackets or open coats. The story gives no sense of pacing; we don't know how much time passes between scenes. However, scars disappearing from one frame to the next suggests quite a while passed.

This doesn't deliver a message, like Mouse did. It's not thought-provoking, as that show was. Still, if you don't look too deep at it, it's a decent watch.

Really excellent mystery/crime drama. I love that I couldn't figure out who the 'culprit' was until the writers were ready for the audience to be sure. That doesn't happen often. The acting is superb, especially the lead actor. I can't figure out why Ok Tacyeon isn't a bigger name in K-dramas. Even in something light like "Bring It On, Ghost", he was magnetic. It's no different here. I felt so sorry for him as the show went on--it was just blow after blow for him. The bad guys are seriously bad in this one, and there aren't many good guys. I thoroughly enjoyed this show, from beginning to end.

I totally enjoyed this mystery thriller. I have read many people calling this drama underrated and I see why. I was not able to guess who the killer was and even when it became evident the ending left me shocked. It was an emotional rollercoaster and the ending though heart breaking left me thinking its the only way possible for everyone involved.

Enjoyed watching the main leads - the 2 brothers and the female leads. I am a fan of Taecyeon's work, especially in Vincenzo and seeing him play another darker role in a darker drama was great.

The story kept me on the edge the whole 16 episodes. It's not the usual k-drama...its different, dark and gritty...its also very different to how k thrillers have been made before...so I totally understand why some ppl are quick to call it mediocre. Yeah I saw the comments here haha.

But I found it entertaining and the cast acting superb. Recommend this drama if you want a no nonsense crime thriller that delivers on acting.

Great events that evoke doubt and mystery make you think in every detail .Those details that make you a part of the story so you don't feel blind to the truth.

We understand the importance of care and attention in childhood, which shapes and influences a child's personality. The shocks they experienced in their early years persist and leave scars on their heart. However, that does not justify future wrong actions, as they should forget the past and think about the future, but strive to repair and compensate for what they suffered in childhood.

We appreciate you entertaining us with this beautiful piece of art.

Coincidentally, I watched "Blind" right after "Mouse", and in direct comparison, the former one lacks in plot development, pacing and character building. It's starts intriguing, the main leads are interesting, and a lot of plot points keep you engaged throughout the whole series, which isn't an easy task for a 16-episode-K-drama. Still, if you just have time for one of these two thriller dramas, I recommend "Mouse", even though the story is different, of course.

"Blind" is a thriller with a dark and, unfortunately, realistic theme. All events in the present started in an orphanage twenty years before, where children were abused and tortured. I don't know if the story is based on real life events, but things like that happened, not only in South Korea, or may still be happening in some parts of the world. The present story line is a serial murder case connected to these past events and the lead characters. Some things are easy to guess, a lot of them are not, and therefore the story keeps you hooked. Still, I feel like some misdirects are too obviously misdirects, a few details don't really make sense or aren't explained well, and some minor characters are underdeveloped. In the end, one or two major elements of the drama are not believable in my point of view.

Apart from that, "Blind" is an engaging thriller drama with lots of twists and turns. It doesn't go that deep psychologically, and it leaves you feeling kind of empty in the end, but that's the point of the whole story. If you like darker thrillers, it's definitely worth the watch, even with its flaws.
