A Shop for Killers

Protagonist's relative's death reveals shocking secret! How will protagonist overcome this sudden shock and challenge?!

Sure, it seems like a familiar story on the surface, but A Shop for Killers goes much deeper, interspersing numerous backstories of our characters who we have no choice but to fall in love with!

The main story is a short one, taking place over the course of a single day. However, such as in life, the events leading up to this day are what matters the most.

The acting is superb, as are the action scenes. I have seen my fair share of Hollywood gun violence, but honestly, the choreography and cinematography in A Shop for Killers has them beat on every level!

A very entertaining series, you will not be disappointed.

Damn, does anyone do fight action better than Korean dramatists? Maybe but I sure don't know yet. I'm impressed with the creative action all around. The relationship dynamics between uncle and niece are unique and in many ways very positive preparations for dealing with living in a crazy world where trust must be earned. There's more to survival than relying on basic instincts--making the most of what's available and focusing are right on target IMO. Interesting take on chosen / created families too. For all the violence issues of collateral damage/murder of noncombatants/civilians are raised. And the difference between psychopaths and rational humans who've made certain career choices--yeah, there IS a difference. Another thing to think about is all that firepower--all those weapons, drones and bombs--indeed there's a lot of it in our world right now. Scary. Still a very enjoyable guilty pleasure watching for what interesting action, character twist, idea concept is coming next. Oh that damn couch... love it.

Captivating story with superb action and background sequel.

Every seen has been shot nicely. Everything was at top class. Nice story to grab on. Pick a bucket and enjoy the thrill.

What a brilliant movie that was! It had everything I could possibly want out of a big production like that.

With all of that to consider, it's no wonder that you might hit a bit of writer's block when you put pen to paper. Don't fret. Sending a thank you card is simple.

By far the best series of 2024, this show is nothing short of amazing. Compelling story, amazingly edited, with a seamless transition between present-day events and flashbacks that adds depth and clarity. The action scenes are incredibly well-executed and thrilling to watch, with fight sequences that are both intense and entertaining. The acting is top-notch, with Lee Dong Wook delivering a standout performance that commands the screen, Kim Hye-jun is equally remarkable, delivering a performance that never falters. She doesn't let down a single scene, keeping your eyes glued to the screen every time she appears. A great surprise, An identity revealer, An action packed show, A must-watch!

As this Korean drama opens a sniper is trying to kill Jeong Ji-an, a young woman in a remote house; she finds a rifle under a sofa and fires back. We then, via a series of flashbacks see how she came to be there and why she is being targeted. It turns out that her parents had been killed and she when she was a young girl and she was adopted her uncle, Jeong Jin-man. Officially he runs a business selling tubing but in reality it is a front for an illegal weapons 'supermarket'; following his apparent suicide she has inherited the business... which came as a surprise to her.

I really enjoyed this action packed series. The opening scene immediately grabbed my attention before flashbacks start telling us how the situation occurred. Throughout the series we move between various time periods but is never confusing about when what we are seeing is going on. This means that even though Jeong Jin-man is dead when the series starts he is still a major character. The acting is solid throughout; the main bad guy may be a bit of a pantomime villain but that suits the feel of the series. The final episode wraps things up nicely without shutting down the possibility of another season. Overall I'd definitely recommend this to action fans.
