Trigger

"Trigger" is a courageous and thought-provoking drama that tackles sensitive issues with depth. Rather than offering simple thrills, it urges viewers to reflect on where violence comes from and why it is often overlooked. Some scenes may feel intense and unsettling, but their realism adds to the story's urgency.

Kim Nam-gil and Kim Young-kwang deliver layered performances, conveying emotional scars even in action-heavy scenes. This isn't just an action series-it's a psychological journey through humanity, responsibility, and trauma.

Though it may not be light entertainment, it rewards those who watch with understanding and empathy. "Trigger" reminds us that we should not judge stories on the surface, nor shy away from difficult conversations. It is a timely and important piece of storytelling.

I went into Trigger thinking it would just be a dark thriller, but it ended up being one of the most unsettling dramas I've seen in a while.

The whole premise - what happens when weapons become as easy to get as a phone - sounds simple, but the way the show explores it is anything but. It slowly peels back layers of fear, power, and desperation, and it made me think about how quickly things could spiral in the real world. It's not just about guns - it's about trust, control, and the terrifying idea that anyone could be capable of violence when given the means and the push.

The psychological tension builds quietly but intensely. You start asking yourself: What would I do in this world? Who would I become?

And I have to say, the actor playing the villain is perfectly cast. He has that unnerving presence - he doesn't overact, but every movement feels dangerous. I don't know how he does it, but he really owns these unhinged, chaotic characters in a way that makes your skin crawl a little.

I know some people say the premise of this show isn't realistic - that it's "too far-fetched" for weapons to suddenly flood into a country like this - and honestly, I get that criticism. But if you can accept the "what if" the show is built on, you'll be rewarded with a truly gripping and disturbing story.

Trigger started off with so much potential, but then just devolved into nonsensical bs. The kind where you have to suspend ALL belief. There is absolutely NO WAY somebody is going to get that many guns into a country, before getting caught long before all hell breaks loose. I finished the series so YOU don't have to, because it just gets worse as it goes along. It ends up being completely irreconcilable. The action scenes were great and acting was decent, but the story just lacked any REAL credibility, in the wrap up.

I recently finished watching a show that I really liked overall. The story kept me interested from the beginning to the end. Usually, when I watch shows, I tend to skip some scenes, especially if they are slow or if certain characters are not interesting. But this time, I didn't skip anything. Every part of the show felt important, and I actually enjoyed watching it fully. That doesn't happen very often, so it really says something about how good the show was.

Even though I liked most of it, I have to admit that I didn't enjoy the ending. It felt a bit off or disappointing. Maybe I expected something more powerful or emotional. Still, the rest of the show was strong enough that I don't regret watching it at all.

What made this show stand out for me was the plot. It felt new and fresh. I haven't seen many stories like this before, so it was exciting to see something different. The way the story was told was also creative and kept me guessing about what would happen next. That made it fun to watch.

I also liked the characters and how their stories were connected. Even the side characters had a purpose, and their scenes were not boring. That's probably why I didn't skip anything. It felt like every moment added to the overall story.

Compared to another show I watched called Good Boy, I think this one was much better. Good Boy didn't grab my attention in the same way. This show felt more unique and well-made. It's always nice to find something that surprises you in a good way.

Overall, even with the ending, I really enjoyed the experience.

Isn't a bad show, the action is solid, the characters are there, and the lead actor is genuinely talented and nailed his role. But there's something missing. I can't exactly put my finger on it, but the series just didn't resonate with me emotionally or leave a lasting impression. It's one of those shows I watched, thought "okay, that was fine," but I wouldn't rewatch it or recommend it enthusiastically. Good performances, decent pacing, just lacking that something to make it memorable.
