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.

Taecyong is brilliant as always. Ever since I watched this young man as a villain in Vincenzo, I started seeking out his other dramas and am chuffed by his natural acting, his wonderful English - so far the best English speaking K-actor, his demeanour and smiles. Then I found out he also sings and dances - such talent, great looks, wonderful acting skills. He has got it all.

In Blind, he is Sung Jun, the adopted son of a judge with an older brother who is also a judge and a mum who is about to become an assemblywoman - no pressure, kiddo. He becomes part of the Violent crimes Unit which investigates a recent spate of murders. When a so called perpetrator is caught, he points his finger at Sung Jun and says he is the murderer.

The suspense begins as SJ tries to clear his name - not only with the public, but with his team mates and his upright family.

Scenes are shown at the beginning of each episode of a group of young boys being physically abused by a group of military men. The abused kids try to escape several times and are beaten almost to death. How that past abuse affected the future is slowly unravelled.

I really liked the Director/writer's style of tying the stories this way. It was horrifying watching young kids being tortured and beaten, but in reality, there are children and adults both men and women who are subjugated to such abuse and even worse. This is what I like about Korean dramas and movies, such horrific human behaviour is put out there without any of the western style touchy feely sentiments. Watch this! !

Taecyong has not even unleashed his full acting abilities in this. I am still watching you, young man. I hope to see you rise even higher.

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.

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.
